Muslim Student vs. Horowitz: Major Student FAIL
Revisionist history
>> ^bcglorf:
Honestly I find less to blame in persecuted peoples who promote hate speech in an attempt to fight their persecutors than I find with persecutors who promote hate speech in an effort to villainize an entire population to the point where it's "overlooked" by world governments when they simply "relocate" those people they don't like away from prosperous land and into tenements.
I don't think I sufficiently denounced this folly before.
Harken back to 1940's Palestine, when the Arab majority was persecuting the Jewish minority. Remember 1949, when the Jewish survivors of the holocaust finally had enough of being persecuted in Palestine as well, and rose up to fight for their independence. Do you have the same difficulty condemning Israel's violence then?
Let's go further, can you cheer with me as the Jewish survivors of the holocaust fought for independence only to be faced by the united wrath of the entire Arab League of Nations. As they were outnumbered 100-1, by forces set on finishing what Hitler nearly accomplished only a few short years earlier, can you spare a cheer for their ultimate victory and survival?
I can understand attributing some leniency when a desperate people resorts to extremes. What I fail to understand is where absolutely non of that leniency is extended to Israel in any way shape or form. Hamas and Hezbollah aren't a direct existential threat to Israel, but they ARE proxies for the multiple nations that do have that potential.

See above>> ^bcglorf:
I have never heard him condemn the extremism on the other side, and I have read many of his tripes encouraging it.
As for the girl, all I have to go on is that exchange.
So you condemn Horowitz for failing to condemn Israel.
Are you then ready to condemn Hamas and Hezbollah?
Will you decry the girl in the video for her failure to do so as well?

I am very familiar with Horowitz and his canon, and I am interpreting the above exchange in that context. I have never heard him condemn the extremism on the other side, and I have read many of his tripes encouraging it.

My answer: I condemn all sides of that clusterfuck. A thing that irks me about the video is not only the girl's extremism, it is Horowitz' false position of moral superiority.

The only difference between this girl and her opposition is that her opposition can hold large public rallies freely espousing and rationalizing mass murder. With total impunity.

Ah, here they come.
How would you have answered the question, will you condemn Hamas and Hezbollah?
Cry all you want about how unfair it is that Hamas and Hezbollah have been demonized, the fact is that they deserve it. It is telling that your kind finds opposing the extermination of all Israelis as an unacceptably pro-Israeli sentiment. That is the distinction between racists like yourself and this girl, and your opposition.
False superiority? I'm not familiar with Horowitz, but in the video he doesn't seem to be in the business of defending the excesses of the Israeli military.
Standing against those that defend Hamas and Hezbollah, or who refuse to condemn them is the moral high ground, with nothing false about it. You need people to stand up for the cause of Palestinian and Jewish civilians in the region, and that means standing against those that have sworn their life's purpose as the extermination of either.

I think you're putting words in my mouth. When did I talk about Jews or imply what this young woman said was right?
I am simply pointing out how much extremism that we, including Horowitz, are willing to ignore or rationalize.
>> ^escape421521:
You're oversimplifying. I'm an American born Jew, I don't support many of Israel's policies and will openly criticize them.. One does not have to support Israel to be a Jew in the same way one does not have to support Hamas and Hezbollah to be a Muslim.
Horowitz understands the distinction.
Her question and Horowitz's response were directly related to that idea. Your comment ignores it completely.

Big up vote from me.
I'm waiting for all the defenders of Hamas and Hezbollah on the sift here to come charging in to the student's defense. This conversation and debate needs to be repeated the world over, again and again until people can no longer claim ignorance as a defense.
Norman Finkelstein - "There Will Be Another War"
His analysis of the situation between Israel and Lebanon is pretty accurate. I don't agree with his view that Hezbollah is merely defensive and Israel is the sole provocateur, but it's certainly debatable.
Also, while true, I don't really see how that link is related to this video, @marinara.
Shepard Smith strikes again! (Re:Bipartisan HC Summit)
>> ^dag:
Filling the Alan Colmes token liberal vacuum at Fox.
His views are not so easily rendered in any one light. I have a fair amount of respect for him though. He went into Israel during the whole Hezbollah thing, and when he came back the "Mel Gibson hates jews" things was the top order of the day. As they transitioned to black, he muttered something to the effect of "Ya, there is a war going on and people are dying, but lets talk about Mel Gibson, that's important". It was so sarcastic that I can't convey it in text
CHOSSUDOVSKY:U.S.A will start world war 3 with IRAN
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RT_%28TV_network%29#Criticism
Countries like the Israel and the US will obviously have contingency plans for invading Iran. Yes, there are double standards when it comes to nuclear wars. No, the US will never willingly invade Iran, they may be forced into involvement if Israel takes the plunge though. The impact of Iran blocking off the Strait of Hormuz, of the damage it could do with terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah would be far more destabilizing than the regional dominance that Iran would gain and the very far fetched idea it would ever consider handing over the nuclear weapons it is quite clearly aiming to develop.
Iran To Israel: "WE FART IN YOUR GENERAL DIRECTION"
>> ^EndAll:
Where does it say that this show of force was explicitly directed at Israel?
I wouldn't mind if they had outright said that..
In fact, I would have liked to see 'Fuck Israel!' on the side of one of those missiles
Here is one reason people believe it is directed at Israel. That Iranian made missiles have been used against Israel by Hezbollah might be another tiny hint.
Would you settle for "Death to Israel" on the side of them?
