Default Follow on the last page of the closed 'The Israeli army murdered an American today!'

The thread 'The Israeli aemy murdered an American today!' was abusively closed to the public, but hypocritically lets Loren Pechtel post more about his justification of murder.

I respond to the post below.
I disagree with this:

Rick
Referring as 'murderous' or a 'monster' can be considered a lot as being 'statements of fact' when one supports the fact that a disarmed person standing up in front of an attacking bulldozer was seen by the driver of the bulldozer, then run over by the bulldozer.
The person died as shown in 'The Israeli army murederd an American today!'.

The word 'murderous' is part of the action of murdering, and the word 'monster' is part of supporting murdering.

Doctors employ these words.

A bit of a flaw in the system--apparently closed threads aren't enforced on moderators. I didn't know it was closed when I posted those messages. I've removed them.

Today's newspaper states:
"...Capt. Jacob Dallal, an army spokesman. "We are dealing with a group of protesters who were acting very irresponsibly, putting everyone in danger."".

I say:
sure, "...in danger." like standing up in front of an attacking bulldozer to defend a house.

Today's newspaper continues:
"The United States "deeply regrets this tragic death of an American citizen," State Department Lou Fintor said.
He expressed condolences to Corrie's family and said The United States wants an "immediate and full investigation" into her death."

I will see now who puts more value into the religious beliefs to do this and that, than into human life.

Starting with religious Bush, who I bet is spineless when it comes down to respecting the non threatening life of someone just standing up.

This is a terrible tragedy, to be sure but there are inconsistencies on what really happened.

Look at those 2 pictures....2 different bulldozers ( look at the lights, the landscape).

Maybe just photos taken at different times, but this group is promoting these as before and after pics.

I am disgusted about what happened here, but I am uncomfortable with the way it is being promoted.

Ion,

I am closing this thread also. Loren has already admited that he did not realize that he was posting to a closed thread. He has since deleted those posts. That thread was closed to allow the situation to cool down a bit, so therefore this one will be closed as an extension of that reasoning.

With my sock puppet set as a moderator for this forum, I am now making a post without opening the topic. I'm doing it by quoting Maverick and not the CLOSED button.
