My bad. I meant bugger orf. Is that the politically correct term Aussie?

When you said the white Jews should bugger orf, were you actually making a statement about the right of white Jews to set up a country wherever they damn well please?


You're losing the plot FD.  I have never ever referred to any specific colour of a Jew.

Try again.

You are doing a good impression of Gandalf here Aussie.

When you said the European Jews should bugger orf, were you actually making a statement about their right to set up a country wherever they damn well please?

Yes, in this sense.  (a)  I do not recognise the artificially created State of Israel where it is because that destabilises World peace, but I have a compromise position ~ Tasmania.  (b)  I acknowledge that there have always been Jewish Arabs living, as they have, in the Land of Arabs and say they have the right to fight it out with the non Jewish Arabs as all of them have been doing for centuries.

The Jewish 'Jacob Come Latelys' can sort it out for themselves.  They can stay there smack in the middle of heat, or move with the 'State of Israel' to Tasmania where everyone will be quite happy little vegemites.

So not recognising Israel is your idea for stability and peace?

Would you recognise Israel if they got rid of the European Jews?

So just to be clear FD - a statement that clearly stipulates that there is a problem with invasion and foreign meddling - and that those invaders and meddlers should "bugger off" and leave the natives alone - is racist? Or is it only racist when its referring to jews?



Well, the Ottomans conquered the Filistines - part of the Mamluk Sultanate - in 1516. There was no call of 'death to the ottomans' from the Filistines because the conqueror were also Muslims.

They started to have 'national aspirations' only when the Jews beat them to it, not while they were under Ottoman rule for 400 years.


The Arab Israeli conflict is all about Muslim Arab humiliation - the Koran says they should be in change and will triumph when the Jews are all dead. And then the Jews came and made a successful country!!!! How humiliating is THAT?!?!







Horseshit.  They made nothing.  It was given to them.



Well, look at the differences between Israle on the one hand, and Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria on the other.

Clearly the Jews made MUCH, MUCH more of that sliver of land than the Arabs have of their vast territories.


Human capital, innit.




With massive ongoing daily Western assistance, both financial and militarily.  Face reality Soren.  Stop dreaming.



The Filistines get about as much foreign aid, if not more, per capita. They spend it on suicide bombers' pensions.

So you ARE backing 1.6 billion Muslims against 6 million Jews - let them duke it out.

You just want the Jews annihilated, that's all you are interested in and you are happy for the Arabs or the Nazis to be the instrument of that.


Tasmania, eh? How many fingers am I showing?

What have you got against Tasmania?  It is far better than that crappy sliver of land the new 'Jacob Come Lately' Israelis find too small that they have to invade neighbours ~ because they can with Western donated money and hardware.

Nah.  Arabia is for Arabs.  Newbie, coat-tail, 'Jacob' (black, white, brindle, red, orange and green etc) can ferk off.

Gandalf have you abandoned your argument that it is racist to say people who are born stupid are more likely to adopt Islam, but it is not racist to say that people who are willfully stupid are more likely to adopt Islam?

Aborigines get better treatment under Australian law. Could that only be motivated by notions of aboriginal superiority?

The "west" did not invade. Nor did the jews even. For the most part they simply immigrated. Aussie is suggesting they be forced back, based on whether they are Arabs. Do you think that is racist?

Perhaps a more familiar example would be more likely to get a straight answer. If someone suggested all non-whites should be kicked out of England, not out of a sense of superiority, but merely 'white ownership' of the Island and discontent with past policy, would that be racist?

It is call for forced mass migration Gandalf, not a mere "critique" of past policy. Do I need to quote him again? You are doing a wonderful job of ignoring his actual words in order to apologise for his blatant racism.

Quote:

I am simply trying to establish that it is racist, not multiplication of difference, whatever that is.

Quote:
I would however insist that not a single Nazi or Nazi sympathiser supported genocide of an entire ethnic group out of a sense of self interest without actually considering themselves superior. Big difference.


Would you insist the Lebensraum argument is not racist when it is made solely for the purpose of benefitting Aryans and without a justification of superiority?

Quote:
No. Now please just take a deep breath and take a moment to try and understand how utterly dumb that logic is.
How in the realm of reality can you possibly credit someone as not racist simply because they make an idiotic broad-brushing of an entire group that you know for a fact to be false?


We are not talking about whether Moses is racist Gandalf, or whether he is correct (unless of course you have just changed your argument once more to insist that racism must be incorrect). We are talking about whether this particular claim is racist.

Quote:
Thats literally what you are saying: by describing all muslims aa inbred and intellectually retarded who kill people, it can't be racist because I know he must be including people who are not inbred/retarded and kill people.


Again, he did not mention retarded.

And you are incorrect. I am saying it is not racist because inbred is not a race, not because he doesn't really mean inbred. Retarded is not a race. Muslim is not a race. Is this sounding familiar yet Gandalf? Let me know when it sinks in.

It is not racist because you agree that Muslim is not a race, and if Moses intended to include you then it is not a "marker" for a race either, which is the only basis you gave earlier for including religious groups in racism.

Quote:
The fact that he obviously wasn't even thinking about muslims that don't fit his stereotype (eg me)


Is that your answer - that Moses was not including white Muslims such as yourself? Why was that so difficult for you?

Quote:
is the very reason why its racist


So why go to such absurd lengths to create your fantasy of a purebred race of recessive retards to cling to a racism angle when you really meant to substitute his actual words for "tinted Muslims"? Would it be fair to say you are making this up as you go along, as every single argument you put forward is shown to be flawed and irrational?


Now he's playing the One Nation card.

Do you want to have a stab at the question, FD?

Clever buggers weren't they.  Drew a map more than 2000 years ago.  Even gave bits names you recognise.
