that other poster is NOT an anti-semite, that is a false smear of them made by you Celerity May 22 #15
Disagree. An accurate description cannot by definition be a smear. tritsofme May 22 #17

sounds like you really don't like this person you mention, even though you don't say who it is.

but I'm pretty sure I know who it is.

There is actually someone in another thread that said they don't care that the couple were murdered, that is some sick thinking.

But have strong disagreements on Israeli/Palestine issues with her. There is never condemnation of terrorists, but when Israel does something, it's all over the place.

Gaza and Israel are very difficult topics to talk about it, for obvious reasons. I try to stay out of any and all discussions on the subject but emotions do run high.

Nothing justifies such abhorrent, open, and proud anti-Semitism.

actual anti-semitism, a defintion of which can be open to completely legitimate debate in some instances) and then, on the other hand, calling another DUer 'a vicious anti-Semite' simply because they post things (and/or post in a manner in terms of area of emphasis) that you disagree with.

He was Israeli, had a Jewish father and a Christian mother and was a practicing Christian living in Israel and working for the embassy.

It is heartbreaking and infuriating to see people excuse cold blooded murder. This toxic brew needs to end.
