another US politician balls deep in lobbyist donation money.

Since I've said I meant something else, I would say perhaps I did mean something else.
Try to grasp the fact that I wasn't answering his question, but responding to the "I'd say....." portion of his post. Machjo specifically said "I'd say it's not Ok for either to do so" and I specifically said, "yeah, and I'D SAY ...." and I've already explained what I meant, but I won't hold my breath waiting for you to get it.Stay stupid, "bud."
okay. whatever explanation you have given does not refute that you would be okay with breaking international law.
would this sometimes being okay standard of breaking international law include others as well or do you hold this 'sometimes being okay' standard for only israel?
-
just wow.
Try to get this through your head. Just because I think sometimes you have to fight fire with fire, because I think it's necessary, doesn't mean I'm "OK" with it, as they are two different things. Same as wars sometimes have to be fought. Doesn't mean I'm "OK" with war. Is it sinking in yet?
machjo specifically asked you: "So you think it's OK for Israel to violate international law".
you answered, "Yeah, and I'd say sometimes you have to fight fire with fire, "international law" be damned."
did you mean something else when you said "yeah" to his question about you being "OK" with breaking international law? do you by chance believe that it's "OK" for israel to break international law and not the team you're not cheering for?
stay classy, american woman.

Intersting how your article doesn't make that claim, nor does it say they are governmental lobbyests or are they paid by the Israeli government.
All of these facts are central to your smear.
dancer is pathetic. no need to waste so much energy on him. he's a pathological liar as it has been displayed here, unless you think bnaibrith is lying about CJPAC being a lobby group:

In a wide-ranging interview with Josh Cooper, executive director of CJPAC, a registered lobby group, there were more questions left unanswered than answered. -
Ummmm... Richard Kemp, who (according to Wikipedia) served 14 tours of duty in the British military, and who fought in 6 different battles/wars over more than 2 decades. Seems to me that he would have at least a little knowledge of military tactics, etc.
goldstone's credentials:
- supreme court judge in south africa where he was dubbed "most trusted man" due to his objective and unbiased work
- chief prosecutor in rwanda
- chief prosecutor in former yugo
- part of the commission of enquiry into the activities of nazism in argentina
he is also a self-described zionist. this and his past work can dispel myths of anti-israel.
this man even re-wrote the UN mandate because because he felt it was too biased against israel.
he went to gaza and did a thorough investigation on many of the allegations made on all sides.
kemp was in the military and has never done any such investigations. there is no point in even trying to compare their credentials and experience.
Oh, and while you're praising Goldstone, remember that he wasn't in Gaza either when the invasion happened.so what if he wasn't. most investigators are not at the scene of the crime and they usually use investigation and evidence to come to their conclusions.
his conclusion was that both hamas and israel committed war crimes. of course, israel's war crimes were massive as compared to hamas.

Santana is meh... but the Pixies are great.
the pixies are so damn good.
the gorillaz are pretty funky.
costello thinks he's a lot more important than he is.

"based on my knowledge and experience, I can say this: during operation Cast Lead, the Israeli Defense Forces did more to safeguard the rights of civilians in the combat zones than any other army in the history of warfare".
- kemp
i'm sure richard kemp's knowledge and experience from the desks of "Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs" totally trumps richard goldstone's professional investigation in gaza where the carnage happened.
point for bob!

Like releasing the captured soldiers or demanding they release their stranglehold on their medieval thinking...
like wtf! no kidding!
what are the palestinians thinking talking about over 10,000 nameless palestinian prisoners in israeli prisons? just release gilad already!
this is exactly what american woman is talking about when she talks about double standards in this world. you go sista. tell it like it is!
-
like, you know, they could have killed 600 children instead of 300 children, but they didn't! that's a gift to the palestinians and the world doesn't see it.
-
Unfortunately, the world expects Israel to give give give and get nothing in return.
israel sure has given a lot since the partition plan and since the unnatural state was established. not sure what all the fuss is about?!
-
Far better than Israel does. The latest "peaceful" convoy organized by Islamists but with no lack of Western "activists" is an awfully good demonstration of just how effective the Islamists and other radical Muslim groups, many with affiliations to such charmingly pro-human rights regimes out of Tehran and Damascus.
who are you and why are you repeating a lie?
you're saying that ships were a weapon depot?
-
Hamas also uses schools and hospitals as weapon depots.
post proof of this.... and i don't mean comments made by an IDF official. show me investigations which have determined this has happened.
-
That's an overly broad question, so I'll give you an answer to match:
it's not a broad question.
i am specifically asking about the human rights organizations reports on israel's violations of international law.
I'm sure some of their criticisms could be legitimate, and others are likely overstated or biased. Often even the legitimate criticisms are inappropriate because of the comparative silence in regards to many much more serious issues in the world.have you taken a look at amnesty international and human rights watch's reports on other parts of the world? because if you did, you would realize that your comment is not true.
If these human rights organizations cared about human rights rather than a specific political agenda, Israel would most certainly not be the nation with the most UN resolutions against it.human rights organizations don't create UN resolutions.

Tired of being naomiglover, dub?
if it isn't israel's number #1 friend.
or does that go to bonam? where is dogonporch? is he digging important notes about the grand mufti and his nazi ties?
do you still foam at the mouth whenever someone makes any comments against israel?
-
Great post, and a perfect illustration of why hateful spammers like naomi/dub are ultimately self-defeating.
oh that dub.

The entire UN, except to some extent the security council, is stacked to the brim with third world interests, hatreds, and biases. It is an organization dominated by nations that have no respect for nor even interest in human rights and should first look to clean up their own houses before criticizing others.
you are totally right. there is a lot of hatred and biases against israel. some of it could be argued to be legitimate, but that still is not enough to accept everything UN says as the truth.
even richard goldstone would not accept to head UN's inquiry into gaza because he saw the mandate to be biased and one-sided. this is why he only accepted to head the report after re-writing the mandate which included looking into alleged war crimes committed by hamas.
you didn't answer my question in regards to other human rights organizations. what do you think of what they have said in regards to israel and international law?
-
UN organizations on human rights and the like have zero credibility. Consider for example:
what about the other human rights organizations? have you looked at the goldstone report? what about that/

lol. you can't even find 1. NOT 1! you're so funny!
there are a lot of stupid things that are supported by so-called legal experts. this doesn't mean that it's law. here is the law in america, american woman. the following is from Criminal law: Examples & Explanations"
:
Fraud
"Someone who obtained sexual intercourse by fraud was not a rapist under the common law, as long as the complainant understood that she was having sexual intercourse. Flattery, promises, or other attempts to manipulate or persuade the female, even if deliberate and untrue, did not establish the crime of rape. These types of cases were considered "fraud in the inducement." This rule could be pressed to the extreme. Someone who shows up at a woman's house in the dark and passes himself off as her lover does not commit rape (even though she was mistaken as to this true identity) because the woman understood that she was having sexual intercourse. though somewhat controversial, the majority rule today is still that fraud in the inducement does not constitute rape.11
If, however, the definition deceived the woman about the nature of the act, he could be convicted of rape. This was considered "fraud in the factum." If a gynecologist told a female patient be needed to insert a medical instrument into her vagina as part of a medical exam, but inserted his penis instead, he could be convicted of rape because the woman was deliberately misled about the nature of the act. 12 If, however, a man falsely pretended to be a doctor and told a woman she had disease that could best be cured by having intercourse with an anonymous donor who had been injected with a special serum, he could not be convicted of rape because the woman understood that she was having sexual intercourse. 13
this should put to rest what the law is in america and how it's different than israel.
