Thread Name: BS: Israeli Jews/Israeli Arabs
Subject: RE: BS: Israeli Jews/Israeli Arabs
Nickhere, maybe you don't find his words, "all-expenses paid 'eductational [sic] trips' to places like Auschwitz where they are worked into an emotional frenzy until they're ready to do harm to anyone who dares question the zionist project," (as you say the are his) hateful...okay.

But you, who has studied semantics, and he as a linguist surely recognize the negative connotation conveyed in phrases like 'emotional frenzy', 'ready to do harm', 'zionist project' and 'more than willing to vent their anger on the Palestinians." 'Vent their anger,' there's euphemism for you!

These are not the words of a person with an open mind towards Israel or Holocaust institutions. BTW, you say you don't personally know if his assertions (as you say they are his) are true; why don't you do some research into what the Holocaust organizations are about, rather than just parrot things you don't know to be true?
