Perhaps instead of suggesting I go fuck myself you might wish to inquire of yourself why it is that you are applauding the same conduct by Israel vis. a vis. not distinguishing between combatants and civilians that ou condemned when the US did the same in Iraq? If you can find a way to reconcile the two, I will withdraw my comment.

I would be embarassed by that statement too, Wonk -- but running away from it doesn't help.

Furthermore, when I suggested US occupation, you started the whole "genocide" thing.

That was not in response to a suggestion of US occupation. It was in response to your suggestion that imperialism was a good option. I took that as a half-assed comment and made a half-assed response ("genocide by white people is good?"). It was an effort to remind anyone who would actually support or talk fondly of imperialism of what that really means.
I did not accuse you of being a proponent of genocide, because I did not think that you seriously applaud the notion of imperialism and all that it wrought throughout the world.
In contrast, you have consistently accused me of, in essence, being a war criminal. And of "fashionably" suggesting that Arab lives are worthless.
Worse yet, you have the temerity to make that accusation in the same thread where you advocate the US invading Lebanon, conquering it, and administering it as a protectorate for the next 100 years -- an approach that anyone would recognize is not only impracticable, likely impossible, but that will cause vastly more deaths than anything Israel has done this year. (cf Iraq, 100 bodies a day and counting.)
And again -- after you propose that, you call me a proponent of genocide. Claiming that I "played that card" when I did not use it in anything like the context or manner that you are using it worse than a cop-out -- it's an excuse that you know to be bullshit (just like you should know the claim that you "never said anything about your stance on Iraq relative to your stance on Israel").
A Jew who lost family in the Holocaust should be a bit more careful about accusing people of supporting genocide. You ought to know the fucking difference.
You can withdraw that comment, or you can go fuck yourself and your familly, you worthless piece of shit.
