Thread Name: BS: Palestinian 'facts'
Subject: RE: BS: Palestinian 'facts'
Carol C-"If people had tried to silence discussion about South African apartheid the way people (you included, aparently) are doing on the subject of apartheid in occupied Palestine, South Africa would still have apartheid today."

HOW DARE YOU, HOW ABSOLUTELY DARE YOU ACCUSE ME OF THAT. You don't even know me, now you are analyzing a few lines I wrote and accusing me of apathy and neglect, and indifference. Well, how's this for apathy, I don't care about anything you say.

Moreover, you plainly do not get both the reasoning and the point of my posting (Did you miss the part where I said I agreed with you some of the time, or do you only key in on what you want to key in on?)

Where did I say anywhere for people to not talk about these isssues, about me not helping to correct the problems? I didn't Carol. I said discussing this on a forum with people with entrenched viewpoints doesn't help much. That's why for the last 22 years or so Carol I have been to rallies, I have signed petitions, I have written letters, and will continue to do so. See, you really don't know me at all, so your 5 minute judgement upon me is baseless. Tell you what, I'll take the high road here, because since you don't get it, that's what I was doing with my post, and I'm going to move along. You continue your ungrounded attacks upon other people, you continue trying to browbeat people into the belief that you are the only authority on these matters, and I'm going to do something positive to compensate for it.
