    Look, I agree with you on it being more than criticism. But people shouldn’t deny that it didn’t arise out of a vacuum. Being murderous for criticizing awful behavior doesn’t give you a great reputation.

        you should be careful you aren’t going to bat for something you don’t entirely believe in. You don’t want to encourage religious fanatics.

          Calling someone a hateful bigot is endorsing violent extremism?

          Hope you’ve got a soft mat to land on for that wild leap.

            Yeah because you equate someone critcizing violent religious extremism to a bigot. that means you don’t want to address the violence, but only scrutinize what words others use in response.

            You’re intentionally waiting for someone to maybe make a grammatical error to leap on and find “bigotry”.

            You would do well in the group of people who equate Anti-Israel stances to antisemitism.
