What does it mean to be anti-Semitic ??

[Isaac-Saxxon]

That might be you Sir ! Jews do not make up the whole of Israel they are
but but one small tribe. The problem is that people are content to think
that ten tribe Israel just vanished. Ever heard of the ten lost tribes ? I know
that would take some reading and you wont find it in the news paper. You
may want to start with the Bible and then some history books too. Juda
was deported to Babylon and the ten tribes where deported north to
Assyria. The ten tribes of Israel NEVER came back they went thru the
Caucusses in to Europe. Juda did return to Jerusalum in small numbers
and NEVER filled the terms of a Christian nation. When the Jews came
back there where alot of peoples mixxed with them. True Juda only makes
up a small part of the people that claim to be Jews. How did the Jews
win the war aginst the Arabs let me quote Rabine "American money
and French wepons" a study on the war of 1917 when the Brits took
Jerusalum form the Ottoman Turks with out a shot might help you ?
Maybe a read in the book of Daniel too. It was 1948 when the planting
of the good and Bad fig tree took place in Jerusalum. I like my brother
Juda but the bad fig that is the tares have mixxed and cause Juda
alot of pain. The harvest is near ! Parable of the Tares or Sower might
help you Al ! Then again you might think Eve ate a apple ? Ever looked ?
The Arab attack is on Christianity and we protect the Jews because they
are our brothers. Ever notice that the Arabs and Persians dont allow
wine to be at there table ? "This is MY blood, take drink in remberance
of Me" Christ speaking . UK and USA make up the large part of the ten
tribes that is why I speak of Juda as a brother but the Jews that say
they are Jews and are not but are of the Synagogue of Satan are the
trouble makers. FYI the Arabs seed was rejected early on with Abraham
and they will be trouble makers untill Christ second advent. The Edomites
(Russia) help fan the flames of hate among the Arabs and many other
countries but our left wing thinks they are our buddies ? What do you
think of Russia Al ?

At least you admit the Bible isn't a history book. That's a start.

I knew you would bring this up, because it has exactly zero relevance to the issue at hand. Yes, Israel's armed forces were mainly equipped with weaponry made in the West. So what? Guess who equipped the arabs? Thats right, Isaac...the Soviets. In fact, the arabs had the advantage over the Jews in every way. So whats your point? We didn't fight the war for them, if thats what you're implying. The Jews were vastly outnumbered and outgunned, yet they STILL prevailed. This is just another conspicuous attempt on your part to obfuscate the issue...sort of like you did with the "I have no connection to the KKK or any other hate group" statement.

You see, Isaac, I was content to allow you to ramble on, unchallenged, with the biblical minutiae....that was harmless enough. But when you started making those not-so-subtly veiled assertions that the Jews have some diabolical, machiavellian plan for world domination, I knew EXACTLY what you were about. What, you think you're the first closet nazi I've butted heads with? I saw you coming a country mile away, son. You figured "Hey, I'll just put them into a daze with my sleepy bible study lesson, then, when their eyes are just about to glaze over, I'll slip in a little subliminal Goebbelspeak on the sly". You're not fooling anyone, Isaac. See, your routine isn't as seamless as you think it is. You tipped your hand...exposed your agenda a bit too soon. This isn't "StormFront", or "The Aryan Nations Website", or "The American Nazi Party Website". Those are the proper venues for what you have in mind, and thats where you want to take your schtick.

You guys never learn!

It would seem you always know what I am going to say before I say it. You must
have that all seeing eye Al. You have your blinders on and thats ok alot of
folks do. You may want to spend some time in the history books sir. Maybe
take a hour and read the book of Revelation it makes it real clear. You think
I have a hidden agenda ? Well now that agenda is the Bible and no where
does it advocate killing the Jews. Hey Al are you a Jew ? Yea I know you
said you are a Christian but you could still be a Jew. I can tell you are
still plugged in the Matrix and get your facts from the news. It is bleeding
hearts that have let our country down and let the subverters in our government. Man had to have a king (Saul) and look what it got us
nothing but trouble. You are fun to spar with. Have a great weekend I
will be back on line next Tuesday so get your jabs ready for next week.
Goats to the left and sheep to the right !

O.k. I'm claiming Godwin's Law

Godwin Law states:
As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one. [1]

There is a tradition in many newsgroups and other Internet discussion forums that once such a comparison is made, the thread is finished and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically "lost" whatever debate was in progress. This principle is itself frequently referred to as Godwin's Law. Thus Godwin's Law serves also to impose an upper bound on thread length in general.

It is considered poor form to arbitrarily raise such a comparison with the motive of ending the thread. There is a widely recognized codicil that any such ulterior-motive invocation of Godwin's Law (in the above sense) will be unsuccessful. This is sometimes referred to as "Quirk's Exception". "RGB's Restriction of Quirk's Exception", also states: "In cases where the subject of the comparison to Hitler fails to recognize the applicability of Quirk's Exception, Quirk's Exception shall not apply and Godwin's Law shall take effect in its normal manner."

P=(k^(1/n)) k<1 where P = the probablity of a reference to Hitler/Nazis, n = the number of posts, and k = a constant less than one depending on the subject of the post (k values for posts such as "Discuss WWII" will be much closer to 1 than the k value for a post labeled "Look at the cute doggies").

Having a open mind is good. Calling names is not productive. New thread please !

Yes, I'm well aware of this "law", and I'd be the first to agree that in most cases it is applicable. However, in cases such as this one, where one of the parties has demonstrated a clear intent to elicit a gut-level visceral response using emotionally charged subject matter (trolling), especially subject matter involving Israel, Israelis, or Jews, such comparisons to Nazis and/or Hitler are not only appropriate, they are warranted. Here, let me break down what I just said into bite-sized chunks for everyone...if the jackboot fits, wear it!

Well, I'll tell ya Cich, my mind stays open all the way up to the point where somebody starts in with the "Zionism" crap..it stays open until somebody starts insinuating that the Jews are hellbent on world domination..then my mind slams shut like a steel trap. These people have endured far too much scapegoating and suffering at the hands of small-minded malcontents on a centuries long witchhunt.

I'm about as far from being Jewish as YOU can get, Isaac. But when the little Eichmanns of the world start spouting inflammatory nonsense, I immediately swap out my Christian Cross for the Star of David. I instantly convert to Judaism, at which point I become more Jewish than the most Jewed-up Jew who ever practiced Judaism in Judea.

Look people, I didn't enjoy this any more than any of you did, but I feel we all have a personal responsibility, no make that an obligation, to call guys like Isaac here out on the carpet when-ever and where-ever they erupt. Ok, I've said all I'm going to say on this subject. Isaac, no hard feelings..have a good weekend.

Wow, Godwin's law even has a formula!

P=(k^(1/n)) k<1 where P = the probablity of a reference to Hitler/Nazis, n = the number of posts, and k = a constant less than one depending on the subject of the post (k values for posts such as "Discuss WWII" will be much closer to 1 than the k value for a post labeled "Look at the cute doggies"
