"But I reject, and resent, what looks like an attempt to color others with antisemitic views that Rockwell or Raimondo may have. As pertains to this thread discussion, it still seems you're making an objectionable ad hominem."

The argument is not ad hominem if it can be backed with facts.

I would not interject these arguments except for the association of the source of this article (VMI) with these other sites. Do some research, you'll find that these claims of mine are based upon fact. Go to these sites and follow the links to their parent foundations, etc.

It's a fact that Raimondo is anti-semitic. At least, I'll take your word for it; I don't visit antiwar.com and haven't read much of his stuff. But that fact has nothing to do with me, and nothing to do with Somalia. Inserting it into the discussion looks like an attempt to slander me with someone else's antisemitism, and I won't stand for it. Your insistence, despite my replies on the subject, tends to prove that it really is your intent.

That being the case, I'm done discussing with you. I don't like ad hominem in the first place, but i really don't like the kind you're indulging in. I love Israel far to much to see charges of antisemitism tossed around so casually to score points in debates.
