Good to hear. It is still important to know (a) how many staff members and patients were killed as a result of this operation, and (b) what was...
I don’t think one should be discussed in exclusion of the other. Is there a person in this thread suggesting we shouldn’t talk about the...
Who are these Palestinian women and “young people” in Israeli prisons, and why are they there? Do you know much more about that?
Perhaps I’m mistaking your argument here. If it turned out that US government was funneling money to Al Qaeda prior to 9/11 — can you imagine...
Discussion being useless has never been a sufficient reason to close a thread on here. Do you think the discussion is harmful somehow? I do...
I don’t think that’s a fair representation of his historical work (like his book Righteous Victims), though his views are veered more towards the...

I don’t think that would work for tournament-style events, where there are brackets.
That might be true (though it’s not exactly what I was saying). In any case, even that is very different from the suggestion that systemic racism...
Not seeing it. Which words naturally imply that systemic racism doesn’t exist?
Does it? That wasn’t what I was saying.
Hard to say. Sometimes the effects of discrimination are not so visible or obvious. I don’t know how to make reparations work. Limiting it to...
That’s a fair question, but in common usage “African American” is referring to people who are descended from African slaves in this country. If...
