That's entirely possible, but I don't think I'd describe what's been spewing forth recently as "argument". It's a lot more like "Oy vey schmeer, poor me, poor us, no one has any clue whatsoever and because of my minority status I am free to both be as overbearing as I want to *and* accuse anyone who doesn't agree with me totally of ignorance or worse."

Now you insult me.

Well, it's probably no worse an insult than accusing others of ignorance and anti-semitism, now is it?

I never claimed minority status.

By pointing out your alignment with Judaism, you did precisely that. Or are you going to say that you're not Jewish now?

There is no way to win in this discussion. Even a slight questioning of such a perspective is being insensitive; nothing short of total disavowal of massive swaths of Western culture is acceptable; nothing short of repudiation of a person's entire weltanschauung is to be tolerated if there's even the merest hint of -- totally unsubstantiated -- anti-semitism.

Again - do some reading before you talk about unsubstantiated claims.

Actually you're the one putting forth the assertions of anti-semitism; it us up to you to provide documentary evidence to support the claims you've made. It's not sufficient for you to simply assert that something is true and expect it to be accepted, particularly since there *now* seems to be evidence that the neo-con movement is *not*, as you have claimed, a Jewish organization, either originally or now.
