If by awesome you mean execrable, then yes, you're right. Legolas Send a noteboard - 18/07/2014 11:45:53 PM

View original postAwesome column by Krauthammer.

I guess you probably didn't, though.

In all seriousness, though, if the truth is so "blindingly clear", I suppose that means Krauthammer's blinders are so massive and effective as to prevent him from seeing anything other than the bright star that Bibi Netanyahu apparently is to him. Though not to anyone else that I know of.

Hm, that wasn't very serious either, was it? I'm sorry, this column is really too far over the top to enable me to write any reply that isn't mocking. If it was intended to do anything other than making Krauthammer feel good about himself and his "moral clarity", it's pretty much a failure. That one thing, though, I'm sure it does very well.

Except for the US. And Russia. So pretty much every place that HAS a Jewish population. Joel - 23/07/2014 02:35:18 AM 705 Views
My criticism IS also applied to Palestine supporters. It's not an either/or deal. Legolas - 19/07/2014 09:03:51 PM 736 Views
Agreed on that much, certainly. Joel - 23/07/2014 03:05:22 AM 844 Views

I'm going to try to shorten and summarize this a bit... Legolas - 28/06/2015 11:21:28 PM 983 Views
It sounds like our only practical point of disagreement is Gazas status Joel - 29/06/2015 12:31:11 AM 695 Views
Pretty much, though I have a few factual quibbles with this post again. So much for shortening. Legolas - 29/06/2015 08:46:35 PM 706 Views

I strongly beg to differ with your position re: Hamas Tom - 26/07/2014 04:25:54 PM 652 Views
Sorry, I don't see that. Legolas - 26/07/2014 08:57:08 PM 760 Views

That bias works out well for the purpose of finding pragmatic solutions for conflicts, though. Legolas - 03/08/2014 05:51:39 PM 802 Views
Or for creating casuist arguments in order to take a side based on self-interest... Tom - 05/08/2014 09:55:58 PM 693 Views
Honestly? Do you seriously believe that is the real reason why they wrote that? *NM* Legolas - 06/08/2014 09:17:17 PM 322 Views
the carrot and stick is somewhat apt, although israel should have given way more carrots to date moondog - 22/07/2014 08:57:13 PM 781 Views
