An off shoot of the Reparations thread..

The most dangerous place for jews today is Israel.
Why do you think that is.

They've been fighting a war on five fronts. Most are in the final stages, Iran will be the grand finale. The Middle East will be a much safer place as long as they can work with the Turks, which may of may not happen.

If I had the choice, I'd rather see a disparaging post about my religion (if any) than have my house bombed, my family killed, and my daughter machine-gunned to shreds by a tank while calling for help.

A lot of people are really getting fed up with these constant accusations of anti semitism against anyone who simply points out the reality of what is going in Palestine.
If there is a rise in anti semitism, then the Israeli government has to take responsibility for creating it.

By constantly conflating Judaism with Zionism, they are doing a disservice to the people they claim they are protecting.
Jews and Muslims have lived side by side for centuries and can do so again.

Hate Crime works on the basis of offending a person or people.

This forum is open for anyone to view the content. Nobody needs to be a member to view it.

If you publish material which offends on the basis of certain characteristics, you are solely responsible, although I expect the site owners wouldn't be that amused.

Not quite. Over simplifying to the point of being inaccurate.

I don't think they'd be happy with people breaking the law on their website. Kinda stating the obvious...

Are you threatening me with something?

Here we go again, queen of the dramatists.

 

[Sunshine32]

No it sounded like you were accusing me of breaking the law.

That doesn't contain the word "offend" at all.

How does hate crime work then according to you.

 

[fillyboy]

There is no legal definition of hostility so we use the everyday understanding of the word which includes ill-will, spite, contempt, prejudice, unfriendliness, antagonism, resentment and dislike.
That's OK then.
