Just keep busting their b*lls until they wake up and smell the reality. Until then squalor and rubble.

You're right. There is absolutely no debate worth conducting with anyone so obtuse as to equate Zionism with Nazism. And in response to your statement to stop giving the world a legitimate reason
to hate us, you need only to look in the mirror to understand why there is Jew hatred.

Her Jewish identity is irrelevant to the issue of divestment and the questioner raising it as somehow
relevant or connected is racist. If the questioner had merely asked how would you vote on divestment
without referring to her ethnic origins, then no problem. But prefacing that with you being Jewish clearly
implies that her being Jewish has an impact on her vote on divestment.

If a student chooses to self-identify as a Jewish person in advancing her candidacy that is her choice. However, if she is subsequently asked how being Jewish will affect her position on divestment from Israel, then that is implying that her ethnic origins have a direct impact on her position on divestment. That is tantamount to questioning an Afro-American person as follows: "Given your black identity, what is your position on Afro-American crime in Afro-American communities". In short, implying that a person's race or ethnicity colors (no pun intended) how they vote on matters which have no direct relevance to one's race or ethnicity. In short, racist.

Your underlying premise which informs your comment is a matter of debate. First of all, your analogy with
Nazism is false. The prevailing wisdom, opinion, and consensus is that Nazism is racist and anti-Semitic. There is no similar consensus regarding Zionism or BDS. In fact, there is a great deal of disagreement and debate on these matters. You and others apparently view Zionism as racism. I and others, on the other hand, view anti-Zionism and the BDS cause as racism i.e. anti-Semitism. But whatever our views are, there is no general consensus like there is when it comes to Nazism.

Secondly, if as you say BDS has nothing to do with being Jewish, then why did her questioner tie her
ethnic identity to the issue of divestment which of course is central to BDS?

Quite simply. If she herself chooses to self-identify as a Jewish person in advancing her candidacy that is her choice. However, if she is subsequently asked how being Jewish will affect her position on divestment from Israel, then that is implying that her ethnic origins have a direct impact on her position on divestment. That is tantamount to questioning an Afro-American person as follows: "Given your black identity, what is your position on Afro-American crime in Afro-American communities". In short, implying that a person's race or ethnicity colors (no pun intended) how they vote on matters which have no direct relevance to one's race or ethnicity. In short, racist.

If he was a man of principle or even politically astute, he would have let the Senate override his veto so that
he could show the world (or even his family) that he stood for something in principle as opposed to the
absence of principle i.e political expediency. COWARD. WEASEL. COWARDLY WEASEL.

By the way, his counting the votes is your rationalization. His rationale was that he likes compromise. What kind of limp-wristed kaka from the limp-wristed kaker. His threatened veto was dead on arrival weeks ago and long before the Senate vote.

What a coward. What a weasel. What a cowardly weasel. Turn it over to the Senate now that his Iran agreement
has turned out to be a non agreement.
