censorship on DU
Why does all the discussion about Israel's boarding of the relief ships keep disappearing? Even the msm has carefully worded reporting of it. Is it a particular moderator doing this?

1. it's to protect the fragile sensiblilities of the DUers who support
the Israeli far right. A freeper could hang out in the I/P forum for a long time without ever being detected because their view is allowed there on THIS topic.

Due to continuing problems, discussion of Israeli/Palestinian issues is limited to the Israel/Palestine forum, and is governed by a special set of rules which are available in that forum. If a discussion is primarily about US policy in Israeli/Palestinian affairs, it is sometimes allowed in other forums. Discussion of other Middle East issues is also sometimes allowed. If a thread is on a different topic, but later goes off-topic and becomes a discussion of Israeli/Palestinian issues, the moderators may move the thread to the Israel/Palestine forum.
If you or others have questions please contact admin.

I'm surprised if someone is removing it, I thought antisemitism was a badge of honor to the left like spouting the greatness of socialsim. ::)

They can't be too obvious about it, or they won't be able to call the right wing "Nazi's". They like to pretend that we have all the hate, and they love everyone, no matter how ridiculous that claim is.

As soon as the first soldier touched the boat the "protesters" went violent. Very violent.
I posted a video of it on another thread...
