or Lesson of this war: The Jews will defend themselves even if it means killing children

that sort of liberal? and on not dividing Jerusalem his piece was anti Geneva initiative because Israel would have to give up part of Jerusalem but to you that's liberal no peace agreement that doesn't grant Israel 100% of Jerusalem and killing children is okay well if it's Jews defending themselves that is?

Lozowick on Jerusalem

The folks who agreed on the Geneva Initiative have gone to a lot of effort to make detailed maps of the various sections of town and who they'll belong to; compare their polished output to my slap-dash ones and you'll be impressed, I assure you. The whole 10-piece series is here. Their lines are pretty much what Clinton had in mind, and I expect his wife and her boss agree. So my task in the coming posts will be to show what the reality will look like, and why you wouldn't want anyone you know to have to live in it.

Exclusive: Schabas’ own colleague, human rights icon Aryeh Neier, calls for him to quit UN Gaza prob [View all] shira Oct 2014 OP

Of course, Schabas is not a judge in this instance, so the analogy falls down Scootaloo Oct 2014 #1

Oh please , King_David Oct 2014 #3

You must have a short memory Scootaloo Oct 2014 #4

What rubbish, King_David Oct 2014 #5

Interesting Dave. Nothing you say here is true. Scootaloo Oct 2014 #6

He retracted the main conclusion... shira Oct 2014 #7

This is one hell of a mess of nonsense, to say the least. Jefferson23 Oct 2014 #9

Great rebuttal, not. n/t shira Oct 2014 #13

Oh no, this one of yours is one for the books...no worries. I suspect there will be much more to Jefferson23 Oct 2014 #16

Goldstone did retract his report King_David Oct 2014 #18

I'm well aware of what he recanted, thanks. n/t Jefferson23 Oct 2014 #41

I'm sure you can't wait for those future reports that will absolve Hamas..... shira Oct 2014 #31

I have not read them, not possible since they're not completed nor published. Jefferson23 Oct 2014 #43

Schabas recently said he didn't know whether he'd be investigating Hamas war crimes.... shira Oct 2014 #46

No, I don't. He said: Jefferson23 Oct 2014 #53

He could have said "Yes, we are definitely investigating Hamas... shira Oct 2014 #65

Must be because he hates Israel. n/t Jefferson23 Oct 2014 #66

How difficult would it be for you.... shira Oct 2014 #67

The irony of this post...you have no idea, do you? n/t Jefferson23 Oct 2014 #68

Another deflection. n/t shira Oct 2014 #70

There was no "main conclusion," Shira Scootaloo Oct 2014 #10

Sure there was. Deny it all you wish. And your personal attacks are stale. shira Oct 2014 #12

Damn right I'll deny it, 'cause I'm aware of the reality Scootaloo Oct 2014 #14

That's right, Goldstone said "...the CONCLUSION would have been different". shira Oct 2014 #19

He's speaking of one particular conclusion, Shira Scootaloo Oct 2014 #22

Does it make you proud as a human rights advocate..... shira Oct 2014 #25

The team was charged with investigating possible war crimes in Gaza. Scootaloo Oct 2014 #29

Aww, playing coy? Goldstone had to practically beg the UN.... shira Oct 2014 #35

Could you source such claims about Goldstone? Scootaloo Oct 2014 #56

Here's wiki... shira Oct 2014 #74

Thanks Scootaloo Oct 2014 #78

That quote doesn't appear in his WaPo article. Did he say that somewhere else? DanTex Oct 2014 #37

Yes, Israel's McCarthy-style smear campaign was successful in that instance. DanTex Oct 2014 #34

LOL. shira Oct 2014 #36

Goldstone was subjected to a campaign of personal destruction. DanTex Oct 2014 #38

A commission tasked w/investigating only Israel and not Hamas..... shira Oct 2014 #39

Again, nobody serious thinks human rights groups are covering for Hamas. DanTex Oct 2014 #42

Uh huh. That's why the UNHRC originally decided not to investigate Hamas.... shira Oct 2014 #44

The Goldstone commission investigated both, agreed? DanTex Oct 2014 #48

Schabas recently said he didn't know whether he'd be investigating Hamas war crimes.... shira Oct 2014 #50

So you're saying that for PR reasons, he should investigate Hamas also. DanTex Oct 2014 #61

Not for PR, but ethics requires it.... shira Oct 2014 #69

The actual truth about Goldstones so called 'retraction' azurnoir Oct 2014 #92

Again with you it's all about Jews ... King_David Oct 2014 #8

More accurately, it's about the targeting of Jews by people like you, Dave Scootaloo Oct 2014 #11

No idea who Kenneth or Meshoe or Australian is, King_David Oct 2014 #15

See what I mean? Scootaloo Oct 2014 #17

"people like you, Dave" King_David Oct 2014 #20

Still waiting on the Schabas report, Dave. Scootaloo Oct 2014 #21

Find me a busy thread here on the US relaxing its standards on civilians in Iraq/Syria. n/t shira Oct 2014 #47

Is that really a big story? Who is reporting it? DanTex Oct 2014 #49

You don't think that's a big story? Why should I post it? shira Oct 2014 #51

If it were Israel, it might be posted in I/P. Or maybe it wouldn't. Who knows. DanTex Oct 2014 #52

Yeah, it's a big story. Goldstone/Schabas would be all over it.... shira Oct 2014 #55

Out of curiosity, do you trust everything the Pentagon says? Scootaloo Oct 2014 #79

No. n/t shira Oct 2014 #80

I didn't think you would Scootaloo Oct 2014 #81

The 1:1 ratio was confirmed by none other than Hamas... shira Oct 2014 #85

You might have a point if Israeli officials ever paid a price for their human rights abuses... Jefferson23 Oct 2014 #62

I do have a point. When have US officials ever paid a price....? n/t shira Oct 2014 #72

That's not a point, the US covers for Israel...always. To you, this is kosher. n/t Jefferson23 Oct 2014 #73
