Hi Albar, you are indeed my brother in humanity... however I just looked at your channel. You are propagating hatred against me, based on untruths. Do you desire to hate Jews so much that, lacking evidence, you republish lies so divorced from reality that they would be funny if not so dangerous? Please tell me, how many Jews do you know? How many of them like to have sex with 3 year old children? Albar, I am sorry for you, that you have been infected with such blind hatred.

long live israel.

all the people who have problems with that, find something else to do.

your jealousy is actually flattering.

@Scarved Fortunately there aren't many apologists hailing the atrocities of Assad, Saddam or al-Bashir. But I sure run into a lot of supporters of Israel who dedicate themselves to defending its reputation by downplaying and justifying it's crimes, in preference by pointing to similar crimes done by Muslim countries. So who's applying double-standards?

[Scarved]

@adribon : 3) (continued) That's called, guess what? A double-standard. What I've been saying all along.

[Scarved]

@adribon: 3) "Because Israel claims to be a democracy people hold it to the same high standards as they hold other western democracies." - Oh ok I get it. You keep saying Israel commits crimes etc. Let's say it's true (just for argument's sake ;)). If I follow your logic, if another country, a non-democratic one, commits the same crimes it doesn't deserve as much condemnation as Israel does. Victims of said non-democratic country are worth less attention than those of Israel.

[Scarved]

@adribon : 1) It's funny you should mention the war in Lebanon because its precisely that event that caught all the attention back then and there was none left apparently for Hama. The perfect example of what I'm saying. Israel has to apologise while Syria doesn't. No condemnation, no outrage, nothing.

2) The number of 30000 dead is quite exaggerated. 18000 is a more accurate number (at least 10000 of which were syrian soldiers and PLO fighters). It's such shame Arafat survived.

[adribon]

@Scarved I'm not in any sense claiming Jews control America or direct US foreign policy if that's what you're trying to say. Israel has often been described as Washington's hit man. On the other hand without US support Israel wouldn't be able to act so bellicose and arrogant. There is much discussion about the power of the Zionist lobby in the US. But Noam Chomsky has a point when he says without Israel US policy towards the M.E. wouldn't be very different.

[adribon]

@Scarved Maybe I should recall the war against Lebanon of 1982 when Israel killed some 30,000 people, the majority of which were defenseless civilians. Because Israel claims to be a democracy people hold it to the same high standards as they hold other western democracies.

But sure, if it wasn't for Israel's zealous apologists defending and justifying every single crime, and much of the West repeatedly turning a blind eye, the hypocrisy wouldn't be so manifest.

[Scarved]

@adribon : 3) "Besides all this, there is good reason to believe without the constant threat from Israel and the US Syria would have been a democracy by now" - Just like Jordan, Egypt, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Qatar, Kuwait, Tunisia, Morocco etc I suppose. Blame it all on the Zionists and the US (the pawns of the Zionists). What a simplistic world you live in...

[Scarved]

@adribon : 1) Comparing the reaction to two military campaigns (Cast Lead And Hama) isn't ridiculous. You have global outrage, one could even say collective hysteria, calls for the boycott of Israel when it comes to Cast Lead and well indifference when it comes to Hama. That was my point. And you're pretending not to understand it. It's becoming a habit.

2) No one's defending Syria, but none of the "peace promoters" we see bashing Israel on a daily basis says a word about Syria.

[adribon]

@Scarved Such a comparison is far-fetched and silly. No one is defending the brutal dictatorship of the Assad regime; Syria doesn't receive billions of US aid dollars and state of the art weapons; Syria doesn't have lucrative trade agreements with the EU; Syria doesn't have legions of supporters in the west.

Besides all this, there is good reason to believe without the constant threat from Israel and the US Syria would have been a democracy by now.

[Scarved]

@adribon : Remember "the muslims who express themselves awkwardly"? You know those who called for the nuking of Denmark. They're islamists, right? Well they share the same sick ideology these taliban "children" have:
