		<description>Robert,

You must try and speak with more objectivity. By running down the Jews so much, you simply are strengthening the case for a Jewish state. In this respect, you are part of the problem and not part of the solution. Do you see that ?</description>

		<description>Nice article.
Zionism must be stopped. They are destroying the world.

Honest jews must speak out against zionism.

I would like to add that I stopped believing in the holocaust when I saw the video of jewish historian &quot;David Cole In Auschwitz&quot;. The interview to the Musem director Piper where he explain that the so-called gas chamber was a german raid shelter was extremely convincing against the big lie.</description>

		<description>I wasn&#039;t going to say anything, but this is just insane:

&quot;Elijah&#039;s posts are instructive in that they are symptomatic of what is called political correctness, the flagship of what has been labeled post-modernism. Post-modernism, the system of thought that provides the foundation for current left-wing fascism, is the anti-philosophy that starts from the premise that there is only relative truth and that, therefore, words mean whatever one wants them to mean. Discourse then becomes indistinguishable from marketing, and the notion of sacredness (that sentient beings and everything else have intrinsic value) becomes merely quaint. It is no accident that the evolution of post-modernism, which succeeded Existentialism, coincided with the increasingly sophisticated and highly successful campaign to promote the Zionist view.&quot;

Okay, so let me get this straight. This is what happened:

1- Elijah said that your argument that Jews were deserving of racism in Europe (pre-1948) is an offensive, racist argument.
2- As a racist argument (and thus a &#039;bad thing&#039;), he wanted your article removed
3- You and Robin responded with elaborate conflations of Jews, nazis, zionoholonazis, etc., and brought the topic back to later, irrelevant actions for this argument.
4- Elijah explained this.
5- You responded with this completely nonsensical statement. 

Let&#039;s walk through your quote up there step by step.

1- Elijah&#039;s posts show political correctness, which is the &quot;flagship&quot; of postmodernism.
2- Postmodernism provides the (philosophical?) foundation for &quot;left-wing fascism&quot; and its central principles are
   a) there is only relative truth
   b) therefore (?) words mean whatever one wants them to mean

No, words only mean what people agree that they mean (they’re constructed)

   c) no sacredness, etc., language as marketing

Postmodernism is only very tenuously related to political correctness, and that connection is usually only elaborated on by hard-right ideologues who see it as either an attack on a rational view of reality or force for dangerous moral relativism. This, strangely, seems to be the point you&#039;re making about sacredness. Try learning more about postmodernism:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postmodernism

If anything, postmodernists would oppose imposing any sort of words or language on anyone or anything, oppose the imposition of state power over language and meaning, and acknowledge the subjective and constructed nature of all identities and truths.

Now “left-wing fascism”- what could that possibly mean? You’re sounding like Glenn Beck now. That is oxymoronic. Usually that term connotes anti-semitism, so I know that&#039;s not what you&#039;re getting at. 

Hmm.. the horrors of moral relativism and &quot;left-wing fascism.&quot; What is this, Fox News? How do the right-wingers whose talking points you&#039;ve co-opted feel about Palestine?

3- Postmodernism succeeded existentialism 
There is a significant overlap between the postmodernist and existentialist movements

4- This succession coincided with growth in zionism, campaigns for a zionist viewpoint.
Okay, this makes the least sense out of all of your claims. What possible support can a radical deconstructionist and subjectivist philosophical field offer for what is in many ways an old fashioned nationalist project built out of a colonial project? Zionism and Israel&#039;s reasons to exist are based in Jewish identity mythology. Since this identity is constructed (like all others), there would be no basis for a Jewish state, and there would similarly be no differences between Jews and Palestinians. Labels are subjective and constructed. 

Postmodernism is a fundamentally anti-zionist and anti-nationalist philosophical movement.</description>

		<description>Thanks, traducteur. I can use all the encouragement I can get. We buddhists call this time we&#039;re living in the Dark Age (Kali yuga), in fact the very end of the Dark Age, when ignorance has almost totally obscured wisdom. On the other hand, we know that eventually the clouds recede and the sun shines again. Right now, however, this requires a great deal of faith.</description>

		<description>I do not think that planners [christo-talmudic cultists; nazism and zionism are cults] of the conquest of palestina did not know that winnig is everything.
They came to palestina to win! But haven&#039;t as yet won; thus, they are merely winnig; yet, so desperate to end it all. &quot;Winning is everything&quot; is an ancient dogma and is applied even today by all lands.

Christo-judaic crowd, i educe, knew that a win-win solution  in palestina is not available. In short, a crime must be commited in order to obtain whatever the crowd had in mind to obtain.
Thus, it had to be a war. What else?! And with much  more and better arms than what pal&#039;ns had.

The war had been well-done but the planners forgot one thing [or dinn&#039;t, but ignored it] that the crime they wld commit wld remain forever a crime in body-minds of bns. Wishing it away won&#039;t help. Doing what they do to pal&#039;ns won&#039;t help.
The rejection of israeli crimes merely increases.

So, a conclusion arises: israelis must forever live as pariahs and which wld undoubtedly lead to their total eradication or ask ALL palestinians what they want.
And what wld that be? Probably a shemitic land, called palestina, but with the people of the three major cults from which one or three religions may arise.

A religion, to earn that label, must be henotheisitc and welcome  all pious people but perhaps not the entire idology of any cult.
Let us be clear: piousness is thinking, ideating, guessing, wishing, etc., and so is any other ism. And no ideating, guessing, thinking shld be considered to be true just because it exists but evaluated as such on some other grounds or critearia such as common senses like that of child with tabula rasa. tnx</description>

See what your Arab brothers are capable of doing. They did it in Afghanistan and they&#039;ll do that everywhere.

Avdat National Park vandalized

Hundreds of ancient artifacts found smashed; walls smeared with paint in ancient Nabataean city. &#039;A World Heritage Site received a grave blow&#039; says chairman of Parks Authority; 2 Bedouins arrested

The Negev hills site of the southern ancient Nabataean city of Avdat, which was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2005, was found vandalized Monday.

Hundreds of archeological artifacts were found smashed, walls smeared with yellow and brown paint, and oil paint was smeared on the ancient wine press. Items hundreds and thousands of years old were severely damaged.

Dimona Police arrested two Bedouins, aged 41 and 57, for their alleged involvement in the act.

In addition to the vandalizing of the National Park, &quot;Sfat Midbar&quot; farm near Mitzpe Ramon was also damaged. Dimona Police forces launched an investigation, saying they will look into all possible leads, including the recent destruction of 23 Bedouin structures nearby, and will examine a possible connection between the two incidents.</description>

		<description>Hi, Mary. In case you haven&#039;t noticed, the ZioNazis have invaded and are in the process of colonizing your website. Seems like I must have a hit a nerve.</description>

		<description>Hey, Roger Tucker

You&#039;re Jewish, ain&#039;t you! So tell us what is wrong with you, and we&#039;ll be wise enough to apply it to all Jews. Man, you&#039;re an insider, tell us the hidden secrets. Gilad Atzmon, Mary Rizzo and others are not willing to admit what is fucked-up with them!

You&#039;re too vain, arrogant retard who not only have a solution but also drew a flag for the new state. And gosh, what an ugly flag. Please, your domain is that of words. Stay there, you little twat. 

I like what is publish in this web site. It is a Zionist web site !</description>

		<description>Robin, I was just teasing the kids with those last two posts, but I do suggest that you take a look at the Twain piece. Not only is he always worth reading but it&#039;s an interesting insight into a late-19th American view of &quot;the Jews.&quot; He has a lot of admiration for them, with some reservations, but the gem in the piece is his attempt to understand how only 25,000 people could be so predominant in American life, so he comes up with a hilarious theory. Twain never fails to entertain.</description>

		<description>Answer to Roger:

    William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)

               THE SECOND COMING

    Turning and turning in the widening gyre
    The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
    Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
    The best lack all conviction, while the worst
    Are full of passionate intensity.

    Surely some revelation is at hand;
    Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
    The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
    When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
    Troubles my sight: a waste of desert sand;
    A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
    A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
    Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
    Wind shadows of the indignant desert birds.
    The darkness drops again but now I know
    That twenty centuries of stony sleep
    Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
    And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
    Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

		<description>Elijah opined: &quot; The reason is that in palestine we have a conflict between two groups who are fighting for the same piece of land.&quot;

In the same way that a mugging is two people fighting over a piece of property...... I think it would be more accurate to say that there is some reistance from the indigenous people, as more of their land is stolen every day, by a mighty military power.

Zionists continually present that resistance as the raison d&#039;être for their miltary bullying, whilst ciontinuing to annexe more land.  I am delighted that Elijah agrees that it is pure racism that is at the centre of this.</description>
