That's all I could really say about Bush directly regarding this subject.Quote:

W.h.a.t. t.h.e. f.u.c.k does the accountablity of the American people for 4 additional years of Bush have to do with Duff explaining that being critical of Israeli policy is not equal to being anti-Semitic?Quote:

First of all, if you are going to go back and edit shit after the fact, it makes it tough to argue. I wonder how often you do that?Quote:

I edit a lot when I think I need to clarify my position. I tend to do it quickly.
I believe Duff and dan are talking about the accountability of the people of Israel themselves and by logical extension Israel as a nation. Has there ever been a stick used in US policy towards Israel, or just billions and billions of carrots?
Nope, Duff was talking about how if one criticizes Israel, he is often accused of anti-semitism. Look at what he's quoting.Quote:

Not that I really care, just think it's lame.
they use expansion.....as a tool....to piss off the palastinians....so they'll be attacked....and will claim the right to retaliate.....by 10 fold.
Right, Duff is criticizing Israel, and dan says the people of Israel should be held accountable at some point.Quote:

Please. Pretty much everyone here goes out of his/her way to get in a jab at someone they don't like.Quote:

So the people of Israel should be accountable for others generalizing people that criticize Israeli policy as anti-semitic? Look at it again, Duff was ONLY saying that if he criticizes Israeli policy he shouldn't be viewed as anti-semitic.Quote:

What analogy and by whom?Quote:

Please. You spend too much time here and can no longer seperate your virtual world from your real world (which as it seems is one in the same for you).Quote:

Right. Dan expanded on that point introducing the idea of accountability of a people.Quote:

Please. You are far too concerned about me. Of course it's not real concern, just a convenient fallback when your argument falls apart.Quote:

But, by all means, let's make this about me.

You're wrong, and you're misinterpreting the subjects.
Have a good weekend.
That's about right then since he said it was your analogy.Quote:

Anyone have the text and/or video for President Obama's words regarding this? I found the Cairo speech:
