Thread Name: Obit: More Muslim intolerance?
Subject: RE: Obit: More Muslim intolerence?
Actually, McGrath, I don't recall ever using that quote from Wolfgang to indicate that he has a bias against Palestinians. My use of it in this thread had nothing whatever to do with a bias against anybody. That was an assumption (did you see that word, Wolfgang? assumption) on Wolfgang's part. My use of it in this thread was of the sacred cow sort. If he has a bias "on this subject" (no mention of the word against), that could explain why he is so unable to see the posts that preceed mine and to which I am responding when make posts about Israel. It is an example of a blind spot caused by one's bias in favor of one particular group. And that was my only reason for bringing up that quote from Wolfgang in this thread. Any other meaning Wolfgang chose to get from it was his own bullshit that he was projecting onto me.

Or as he would put it (and as he so often does), Wolfgang is making assumptions and selling them as truth.
