Why there are so many pro Jewish topics in this forum?

[nahim.a.a]

I mean, who's opinion they wish to influence? I'm sure a majority of members in this forum don't give a damn about mid east issues and it seems there is a vocal minority who keep posting threads pushing a particular agenda - mostly pro-Jewish...

Personally I feel its quite unwise for Jewish people to have such a high profile, considering the history of anti-semitism and how people finally start to feel that a small group of Jews have a lot of power - creating resentment and finally genocide - in case of WWII.

Anyway...

I just see many of us including me are bashing them . The OP support jews but soon their threads are owned by us

pro-jewish topics?
I think you're wording something wrong.

[najibs]

I REALLY think that RFD needs a forum specifically for politics related discussions. I'm sick and tired of seeing these topics on the off-topic. yeah I know it's the only place they belong right now, but Ryan put up a poll a few weeks ago about a Politics related Forum, and even the results favoured one.

Please Ryan, make another forum for politics so that we can get the war related discussions out of here!

I fully agree. Politics, and religious discussion should be in a separate forum. This forum has a lot of traffic but most of the topics are political discussions - if you can call it that.

So who's going to count the number of pro-Israel vs Anti-israel topics in here? Volunteers?

RFD needs a BF2 war to settle all these arab vs jew vs pal vs america vs iran vs etc threads. Although i hate real war especially when real people get killed (civilians and soldiers ), i love online gaming. I'm sure we can find iDF and Hez, etc skins too.

It'd suck though, cause 'Hez' would fire from residential homes

hmm we need some team balancing issues for sure as far as weapons go.

Also your team can kill civilans and bomb UN buildings and ambulances with precision guidance weapons then go on CNN and say "We don't target civilians."

j/k

but these threads are getting out of hand thats for sure. Just making more radicals on both sides. Also many of you I bet are arguing so much with each other that you are forgetting all the hot deals being posted. I actually posted a few this week. give me cookie.

[Mr._Hankey]

I'm deeply sorry for endangering the propagation of your antisemitic agenda.

Personally I feel its quite unwise for Jewish people to have such a high profile, considering the history of anti-semitism and how people finally start to feel that a small group of Jews have a lot of power - creating resentment and finally genocide - in case of WWII.

Personally, I feel a sudden urge to grab a bat and use it.

P.S
OP reported.

Here. A search of Off-Topic for the word "Israel" came up with these threads. I removed one or two that didn't relate, probably came up from people's sigs. Lets count, shall we? How many do you see that look pro-Israel?

You're lazy, you didd'nt break it up into for and against.

Well, ethnocentrism is always going to create a backlash for that ethnic group. Anytime you have a vocal and powerful minority pushing forward an ethnocentric agenda with absolute self-centered motives on the expense of others - naturally there would be resentment and resentment building through years turns into hatred - and hatred is cause of all evil.
