  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Mayor-elect and I would hope no mayor in America is looking to harbor an alleged war criminal sought by the ICC.
Let's be serious. LOTS of posters here and LOTS of mayors in the US would have zero problem harboring an alleged war criminal with a warrant pending by the ICC.

Netanyahu has diplomatic immunity.
The US does not recognize ICC warrants or decisions.
==============
That being said, many here and many mayors would have no problem with arresting alleged war criminals. Others would have no problem hosting them.

The government of NYC can certainly greatly restrain the travel of alleged war criminals.

Then you should know sometimes you have to actually be louder than your audience so they can hear you when you're present.
:doh:Hence, the microphone.
(regarldess of what a video feed shows; they don't usually have mics that pic up room sounds well.
There were hundreds of people in the room. There were millions listening around the world. He even addressed Trump saying "I know you're listening". Who do think his audience was? The room full of intoxicated people?

Well no it didn't.
You posted the newsweek article AND you posted what looks to be an AI summary that disproves his ability to do such an action. The information in the article is NOT related to your AI summary.

I openned the article and read the article, thanks.

The format of the article was NOT what you posted. Additionally, it did not have the information you provided that you now seem to be indicating was in the newsweek article. That is false. I have to ask...did YOU read the article you posted?

You have recently begun creating posts in this format (numbered with bolded). You have not done this in that past.
It's actually not a big deal if you do use AI...just credit it. This would INCLUDE summaries of articles.

But yeah, let's not pretend your post Actually provides information located in the article after "Here's the problem"

I can smell the anti-Semitism through my monitor.
He's been charged with war crimes AND he's Jewish. He hasn't been charged with war crimes BECAUSE he's Jewish.

You should get someone to check your monitor.

The hypocrisy meter is reminding me of all the criticism of George Soros that’s labeled as anti Semitism
