Whatever happened to those Palestinian protests?

[Beastly Boy]

110. The context was of radius777's choosing. The false presumption was evident in that post, and so were its implications.

Here is what I replied to:"The pro-Israel lobby is anti-American, as it directs our tax dollars towards propping up a right wing genocidal regime." The assumption here is that lobbying for Israel is anti-American. And the presumption here, wrapped in incendiary rhetoric and as deviod of substance as it is categorical, is that the Israel lobby, whatever it is made up of, is after our tax dollars to fund Netanyahu's regime, not Israel as a liberal democraric state.

Naturally, as a supporter of Israel, I took offense to this load of garbage, and I replied accordingly and appropriately.

In this context, the end portion of my post which includes the sentence that displeased you, reads as follows:

"Once again, I am pro-Israel, I contribute my honestly earned dollars and no one else-s tax dollars to pro-Israel lobby, to lobby for Israel, which includes, as you mentioned, many Israelis who don't support their government's actions.

Does this make me anti-American any more than my contributions to World Central Kitchen?"

You presumed, I am guessing, that my reference to my contributions to causes other than Israel creates a strawman, which, I am guessing, is deemed by you to be out of context (a lot of guessing here because you are, deliberately or unintentionally, being rather cryptic). Well, the context is right here for you to see, and my post illustrates the absurdity of the statement I originally replied to. It was addressed to you because you inserted yourself in the thread, no other reason.

If you think you are unwilling or unable to sustain a convincing argument, by all means, have a nice day.
