Thread Name: BS: Congratulations to the Palestinians.
Subject: RE: BS: Congratulations to the Palestinians.
Incursions----I said Arabs (Arab nations) not Palestinians. Try for accuracy folks.

Yes, I understand that. But you are trying to justify punishing the Palestinians for what was done by other groups of Arabs. If you have a problem with what those other groups of Arabs have done, take it up with them. But stop trying to justify punishing the Palestinians for things that have been done by others.

Mufti---I don't care who appointed him. He caused the bloodbath.

This is true. But it wasn't a problem that was created by the majority of Palestinians. So stop trying to justify punishing them because of something over which they had no control.

Now--Carol=-=-as usual you step into the gutter---"co-religionist", "my indoctrination", and other such slanders.

Gutter? Slander? There is nothing gutterish or slanderous about anything I have said. You are holding all people of Arab and Palestinian ancestry responsible for the acts of some Arabs and some Palestinians, but when it is pointed out to you that some of the people who belong to the group you identify with have contributed to the problems that they are facing in the Middle East, you call it slander.

Well, at least, unlike you, I don't believe in holding all members of any group responsible for the actions of only some members of those groups.

And if you don't like people pointing out the fact that it was someone who belongs to the group you identify with who is responsible for the blood bath created by the appointment of Haj Amin al-Husseini to the position of Mufti, stop using him as an excuse for mistreating the Palestinians. And that is what you are doing.
