Exactly. Supporting state-sponsored discrimination and oppression against Palestinians (or smearing those who oppose said evil) is every bit as wrong and bigoted as supporting antisemitism.

You know absolutely nothing about I/P. How can you say that Palestinian citizens of Israel have equal rights without bursting into laughter?

Except for "hypnotize", those all are your words, not hers. You're putting words into her mouth then condemning her as an antisemite for statements that she only said in your imagination.

She said AIPAC and was still accused of antisemitism. This isn't about antisemitism and it can't be solved by more careful wording: the people leading these smear campaigns are not acting in good faith. They want to silence any criticism of Israel and know that false antisemitism accusations are an effective way of…

You can get offended at whatever you want, but if you get offended when people speak up in support of an oppressed indigenous people, you're a shit hth

You mean how he campaigned for Hillary after she won the nomination?

If you have a legal and regulated prostitution system, you could charge anyone who buys sex outside of that system harshly on the theory that they should know that unlicensed prostitution is likely to involve coercion, mistreatment or statutory rape.

That's because the younger, but old-enough-to-run-for-President generation grew up in the Reagan and Clinton epoch where right-wing centrism was considered the only viable political path and they absorbed that sensibility.

She is a contemptible piece of shit, but you really shouldn't call her the c word. Unless you're British.

lol the future of human civilization as we know it is threatened unless we take drastic action, but what's really important is that we be docile and don't rock the boat.

That’s certainly a take. An idiotic take, but a take nonetheless. Climate change is real, and unless we take drastic action, the consequences will be devastating. Rich octogenarians aren’t the ones who are going to suffer; kids of this generation are. They weren't being used; they understood full well what they were…

Or better yet: give them a shot of Windex and say it's Sex on the Beach.

So in other words, you've learned absolutely nothing from the Iraq war.

And Colombia under the right-wing Duque has murdered hundreds of indigenous and left-wing Colombian civilians. And yet Trump and his point man Abrams, the butcher of el Mazote, are using Colombia as a staging ground for regime change in Venezuela. It's almost as if this warmongering interventionism has nothing to do…

Many regimes consider themselves above criticism. What is unique about Israel is that the political establishment in the US considers it to be above criticism.

Yeah, it's not as though having a Jewish president for the first time would be a major milestone or anything.

Point 1 is incorrect. Yes, Arabs and other peoples are Semitic, but the term “anti-semitism” was coined in the late 19th century in Europe specifically to refer to anti-Jewish politics. The rest is spot-on, though.

Except that criticizing the KSA won’t get you labeled a bigot; you’ll just be ignored because of the mountains of cash MBS and his allies in the UAE are throwing at DC.

“But even still, other politicians and public figures have made the same points Omar is making about how bad AIPAC is and how the relationship that neoconservatives and defense contractors have with Israel is a mess without quite so thoroughly sticking their feet in their mouth.”

“Oh, but it is. BDS has problems acknowledging Israel’s right to exist (and it’s Jewish inhabitants to exist),”
