It's the luck of the draw. I wouldn't want to take the risk, myself, plus in my case, I don't bookmark posts like that.

What's far more common in my experience is to avoid making any criticism of the Israeli govt by blaming things like US voters and Hamas.

I've found that making absolutist comments like 'no-one has ever...' is a bit silly and unrealistic. I've seen all sorts of things in my many years in the I/P forum, and it's not just on one 'side' as some would like you to believe.

Don't ask me for any links, coz I'm too lazy to go looking and I'm not bullshitting about any of this

This is getting tiresome. Mossfern May 2025 #21

I will not be baited into breaking DU TOS, which is what you are trying to do by telling me to post direct links Celerity May 2025 #22

What nonsense. MarineCombatEngineer May 2025 #29

That is sheer sophistry. Posting link to a poster's post calls them out, whether you type their name or not. Celerity May 2025 #36

Well, if that were true, MarineCombatEngineer May 2025 #38

More sophistry. You're wilfully conflating innocuous postings of links to another DU post (OP or reply) to the posting Celerity May 2025 #39

LOL. MarineCombatEngineer May 2025 #27
