I believe it should be possible to be critical of the policies and actions of the current government of Israel without being labeled an anti-Semite. If it isn’t, we have a problem.

This was a grotesque, bad faith conversation. They do not have the courage to address the inhumane acts by Israel, but claim that anyone who does is racist. That is ghoulish hypocrisy.

Nope. You can absolutely be against Israel’s sociopathic government and also support the right of Israel to exist… just like you can be against the United State’s sociopathic government and still support the right of the US to exist. Frum’s argument does not hold water.

How about we just agree that genocide is not ok? Genocide against Jews is not ok, genocide against Palestinians is not ok, genocide against Native Americans and Africans and anyone is not ok.

A lot of people are against genocide, no matter who is perpetuating it. I refuse to support genocide, NO MATTER WHO IS DOING IT. PERIOD.

I'm gonna illegaly occupy land, suppress the people there or push them out and if they resist I kill them. And if anyone critisises me for that behaviour they will be told that they negate my existence. Seriuosly, what utter BS.

As a lapsed British protestant I got 8 minutes into this before finding it unbearably ignorant.

I watched seventeen minutes of this conversation and found myself so disgusted that I couldn't watch anymore of it. I'm very disappointed. I'm thankful for the comments.
