In reply to the discussion: New Low: Anti-Israel BDS Connects Ferguson to ‘Palestine’! [View all]R. Daneel Olivaw
(12,606 posts)78. I told you that I would be happy to assess your angle.
"There's no evidence she was tortured."
It's your general MO, shira, isn't it?
Palestinians killed on Nakba day? Well they must be faking it you say.
Palestinians on tape being abused by Israelis? Well it must be Pallywood you say.
Boycott Disinvestment and Sanctions picking up steam? Well they must ALL be anti-Zio haters supporting terror you say.
And now the distraction of the day...
Her sister says she's a terrorist while she denies. Why would you believe a word she says?
So your angle is to distract with another waste of time, accusations that at the very least are completely suspect; all in defense of a corrupt regime that kills, tortures and destroys.
The question really is not why anybody would believe a word she says but why would anybody believe a word you say?
Nelson Mandella and Mahatma Ghandi were also considered terrorists by the same kinds of people that you now defend. Think about that one for a while.

Oh, I believe that you will call BDS anything in order to vilify them.

BDS supporters weren't vilifying the Palestinians murdered on Nakba day, silly.

Yes, since that is what the LEOs usually allege when killing an African American or a Palestinian.

You'e got a perverse definition of terrorist, but it fits with you narrative.
