Remember when a topic was posted on FR and everyoe would run off to research it? Now whenever there is a thread on Israel posted which is the slighest bit negative, the first few comments are "prove it!", "source isn't credible", "old news", "this is antisemitic"...yadda...yadda...yadda.

You are the only one here who reminds me of Ann Lewis or Sidney Blumenthal. Slime-masters.
Gee, Larry, after a review of your posts, you're more of the Sharpton/Farrakhan type--and your stance towards the Middle East echoes Tom Friedman.
