"My comment was meant to be nothing more than a snide callback to previous posts in other threads that, as far as I'm concerned, minimized the Palestinians' culpability in the conflict. It wasn't meant to paint all muslims as evil monsters; you just read into it that way so you could attack me more easily."

No, I read the words you typed and responded. Brandon, do you believe that there are ANY Palestinians who would prefer non-violent measures against Israel???

"And seriously, fuck you and your "relevant" straw man. I don't deserve your shit just because I disagree with you on this issue. You seriously need to examine what kind of comments YOU'VE been making before you start labeling people as "zealots.""

It's not a mere disagreement. I think you'd find we agree on several matters pertaining to this conflict (which I in fact began to list out in the post that got cut off). Furthermore, I'd challenge you to point out comments I've made that would classify as extremist. I don't know that I made a blanket indictment against the Israeli "leadership," nor did I make a flippant comment over whether or not Israelis wanted peace seriously enough. I also never said that the Palestinians have done everything nice possible, and the Israelis in fact everything bad. I also didn't say "still waiting for the Jewish Ghandi" in reference to the IDF. So before you make any claims of who is this and who is that, you damn well better back it up.
