Fund Headed by Kerry’s Wife Donated to Anti-Israel ‘Conflict Kitchen’

never mind the rest; it's pretty boring, and as it turns out at the end, the Bostonian Billionaire's wife has nothing to do with the fund

3. So...

you're happy about this? You are giving some money yourself? I am not sure as to why you scour the media and limit your posts for the most part to this subject. I daresay that if you behaved in this fashion towards Native Americans, African-Americans, Asians, or Filipinos, there would be some displeasure around here but I can see from various actions and inactions of the membership that this is permissible and accepted, so therefore, as a member for over ten years of this community, I accede to their wishes and accept your behavior as a community standard..
 
However, I wonder that if and when the Israelis vote the Likud Party out of power, your mission would be accomplished? Or would that be if they withdrew to the pre-1967 War borders? Would that be sufficient? Or would more be required of them? I am just curious as to what the motivation is for continuous posts involving not only Israelis but Orthodox Jews in America, rabbis who have deviated from the norm, and the like. Your posts are purpose-driven in my opinion and I just would like to know what is the purpose of choosing Israelis and Jews singularly is? I do not believe that I am alone in my querulous nature here.

You go, Doc.

<<<in Doc's corner.

4. "I am not sure as to why you scour the media and limit your posts for the most part..."

I am not sure as to why you scour the media and limit your posts for the most part to this subject.

Here is a list of my last two weeks of OP's, some 115 or so. Out of this collection there are approx. 12 israeli related posts and 2 of those are reposts due to being 'locked' by forum hosts.
 
This is hardly 'limiting my posts to this subject' now is it?

If anything I am indeed neglecting this 'subject'.

Please play again, will you?

never mind the rest, as it's pretty boring and doesn''t prove the primitive's point anyway

5. Personally, I am amazed by your prolific nature

It seems like every time I read a story to post in LBN - it's already been posted there by you.

6. I was a bit surprised myself after tallying the OP's I've posted over the last

2 weeks and I know I've cut back some as of late.

7. A trend which you should continue.

Purveyor (21,171 posts)    Sun Oct 26, 2014, 08:54 PM

8. What trend is that? Pointing out fallacies that select members on this forum spout in regards

to my posting habits with solid, irrefutable evidence?

I will, indeed!

9. I must agree with PC intern you are obsessed

With Jews and Israel and up until recent even had a signature line in the topic-some nonsense about " lest us never forget" ( always negative)

Purveyor (21,171 posts)    Mon Oct 27, 2014, 12:17 AM

10. Well you can agree or not but my posting history does not validate the claim.

And yes indeed, those 10% or so of my OP's are (always negative) as I will not condone an apartheid state such as israel.

King_David (9,531 posts)    Mon Oct 27, 2014, 12:48 AM

11. Orthodox Jews too ?

King_David (9,531 posts)    Mon Oct 27, 2014, 01:01 AM

13. Oh it's not the "Apartheid State" thing

That irritates most western opponents of the Jewish state , that's just a convenient cleansing terminology.

PCIntern (15,330 posts)    Mon Oct 27, 2014, 02:18 PM

17. No...fewer posts.

Purveyor (21,171 posts)    Mon Oct 27, 2014, 04:49 PM

19. In your sweet dreams. With winter on its way, I'll have much more time t

devote to posting and topics of my interests.

PCIntern (15,330 posts)    Mon Oct 27, 2014, 05:22 PM

20. Do what you want...

the fact of the matter that long after you and I have turned to dust Israel will be present, strong, and invincible to the masses of those who have warred upon her since the day she was declared a sovereign state.* Too bad for you I would suppose and for all of those who have endeavored to lay us low.

22. Oh...and one more thing of some interest...

I see that your Journal contains almost none of the Jewish-related or Israle related posts, but does contain a healthy number of all of your other posting subjects. I am cerain that yo would like to enlighten us as to why you do not keep your posts of this nature in your magnificent Journal since you obviously take great pride in their existence judging by your responses to anyone and everyone who disagrees with your postitions in these matters.

Purveyor (21,171 posts)    Mon Oct 27, 2014, 09:59 PM

26. Again, the database doesn't lie. Those type posts are there but you have to

look for them as they are dispersed amongst the many other OP's on other topics I post.
 
I had all of my posts sent to my journal by default until Feb. 11th of this year but turned it off when I thought it was slowing my system down. Can't have THAT now, can we?

PCIntern (15,330 posts)    Tue Oct 28, 2014, 12:25 AM

29. I find it amusing that you revel in this

And of course I believe your rationale which you just stated.

Purveyor (21,171 posts)    Tue Oct 28, 2014, 01:55 AM

31. I strive to 'amuse' and am pleased I've suceeded in your case.

Scootaloo (14,137 posts)    Mon Oct 27, 2014, 02:46 AM

14. Oh man, I love this line of arguing

Where you take someone's interest in a topic as of course having some awful, nefarious purpose. But never actually you know, just saying what that nefarious intent is.
 
So that nobody misunderstands your stance, PCIntern, what, precisely, are you attempting to accuse Purveyor of?

PCIntern (15,330 posts)    Mon Oct 27, 2014, 02:19 PM

18. I am not "attempting" anything...

Nice to see you on the bandwagon, Scootaloo.

16. Well, as I pointed out in the earlier thread about this story in GD...

never mind; just a bunch of blah-blah-blah

PCIntern (15,330 posts)    Mon Oct 27, 2014, 05:31 PM

21. Subtlety is not your forte or strong suit...

For the uninitiated, this is an attempt by my good friends above to goad me into doing something which I shall neither name nor shall I perform, in order to alert on the post and ultimately have me banned from DU after posting here for over ten years.
 
I would say that in answer to this that I have, over these years, had many more four and five star posts than these erudite, well-informed, and cogent individuals and do believe that since I, and quite frankly everyone else who posts here, have brought to the community some substance and perspective which is not unique but demonstrably different from many others here, that I wish to remain a small part of this Enterprise. In a different manner of speaking, I am not so stupid or ignorant to fall into this trap set by these delightful folks of whose opinions I possess the utmost respect.

If true, I find that hard to believe. The majority of Skin's island was quite adamant about their viewpoint of Jews this last summer when the IDF went into Gaza. Just to remind any primitives who might be here reading, the verdict on the island was "Jews need to die!"

Of course Doc's aware.  But he tolerates it anyway.

He may express disagreement, but in the end, he goes along with that hate crowd anyway.

Nope

He's been there before, many times.

I am going to take my leave from DU for a time: [View all]
 
Many of you will shout, "Hurrah", since you despise my pro-Israel stand that Hamas must be rooted out and destroyed. Nothing you may say will change my attitude in this regard and nothing I may say will certainly change yours. 
.....snip.....
Second, and more importantly, this has become an outlet for some of the worst anti-Semitism I have seen in many years. The code-words, the hatred spewing towards established members, the rank dismissal and disgust with which opinions are met rivals any forum with which I have had contact for the 45+ years in which I have been active in Jewish causes. Like pornography, I know it when I see it.

You know, my good friend Doc may be an observant of Judaic beliefs and practices, but he's reasonably typical of many "secularized" Jews; I know some.

Many of them have some sort of nonsensical desperation to be "assimilated" into American society and culture, and they don't feel they're "assimiliated" because they're, well, of Judaic derivation.

And so they hide or denigrate their background.  And if that's still not enough to make them feel "assimilated," they go one step further and associate with those who hate their kind, so as to prove they're "assimilable."

It's all an utter crock of shit, this fear that they're not "assimilated."  Those of Jewish beliefs and practices are accepted as legitimate and valuable parts of American society, history, and culture.....at least in the political party not the one my good friend Doc belongs to.

When Jews support liberals they do so in contravention of their own best interests. That is a recurring theme in the Old Testament as well.

My good friend Doc's a weird case; I'd consider him fully assimilated, more assimilated than franksolich even.

I mean, hey, the guy's esconsced comfortably in the midst of this class:

Old Philadelphians, also called Proper Philadelphians, or Perennial Philadelphians are the First Families of Philadelphia, that class of Pennsylvanians who claim hereditary and cultural descent mainly from England, Wales and Germany, who founded the city of Philadelphia and settled Pennsylvania. They are considered part of the historic core of the East Coast establishment, along with other wealthy families of Boston, New York City, Virginia and Charleston. These families were extremely influential in the development and leadership of arts, culture, science, medicine, law, politics, industry and trade.

He's obviously among the Philadelphia Main Line:

In 1963, Nathaniel Burt, a chronicler of Old Philadelphia, wrote that of Philadelphia's most notable early figures were listed in "the ancient rhyme, called the Philadelphia Rosary," which goes:

Morris, Norris, Rush and Chew, Drinker, Dallas, Volinsky, Wharton, Pepper, Pennypacker, Willing, Shippen and Markoe.

I'll bet he can even tell the difference between "the" Cadawalladers, and the lesser-statused Cadawaladers.

However, his choice of classmates in dental college wasn't so impressive; during a 2009 class reunion, one of them (female), was wearing a dress but no underpants.  I'm sorely surprised the photographer, who probably wasn't cheap, didn't airbrush it.

Frankly the whole "Your relative donated to some organization that supports a cause I don't like" game is a stupid waste of hot air that could be used to kill off the polar bears.
