the topic of american support for israel--particularly once you turn attention to gaza, the west bank and the modes of colonial occupation (from checkpoints to settlements and all that these imply)--is a particularly explosive one. because these debates tend to become emotional quickly, you would think it a good idea to proceed with more rather than less information to back your positions--and what do we have instead?

nonsense.

if you dont want there to be a serious debate about us-israel-palestine, why not just say it and be done with it?
at least that way, you'd be taking a position on your own and maybe even saying something rather than indulging the tiresome game of sniping at the length of host's posts.
i personally could not care less that ustwo finds scrolling to be an affliction.
i really dont care.
it is not an argument.
it is not interesting.

if you find the op to be a problem, make a substantive claim about it.

this is nonsense.
