"Why not leave with the baby if you're so disgruntled."
I'm not disgruntled. Just remarking about how one has to walk a tight rope, it seems, when attempting to criticize Israel. Your response can serve as an example of the attitude to which I was referring. And I didn't even criticize Israel. I am a big supporter of Israel but it hasn't been difficult to watch posters disappear after posting intellectually honest criticisms of Israel.

.....difficult to watch posters disappear after posting intellectually honest criticisms of Israel. What one considers "intellectual honesty" may be considered a whacked out opinion by others. If one (and I don't mean you) cannot defend those opinions then.......

I suspect it's how you do it.
If the SMs* commit another of their daily atrocities and you respond with "Israel blah blah blah" I would bounce you in a minute...

I just don't like to see people criticizing FR.
There is no place like it and anyone who doesn't like it can leave.

back before i was enlightened, i posted a criticism of the IDF for using what i termed "nazi tactics" when they knocked down the houses of terrorists' families. i was criticized by many freepers, but no one banned me or even removed my post.
you really have to work at it to get banned or to get a post removed.
