In reply to the discussion: Bill Maher: "People Die in Wars" [View all]Bluenorthwest
(45,319 posts)40. I do not believe you and call for a citation. Link please.
you claim Bill Maher, atheist, made a claim that some lives are more 'sacred' than others -'Israel. He said he has no problem with that, as he considers an Arab life much less sacred than a Jewish life.'
Show us where 'he has said that'. Prove your contention, show that which you assert to be truth to be the truth.
If you don't, and you won't because you can't, I will assume you have no ethics about claims you make about other people whatsoever.
