20. False questions.
Wed Jul 27, 2016, 03:55 PM
Jul 2016

I did answer your first question. The answer was "No." Your other questions were equally false. They assumed facts that are blatantly untrue. Let's look at your other questions.

First: "Who else has been written into the script of who we as Americans must worship?" Everyone can see that your question assumes that Israel has been written into a script of who we are to worship. Except when you wrote that you told a big fat lie. No one has been written into a script that Americans are supposed to worship. So the answer to your dishonest question is, "No one. And no one at all has been written into a script that Americans should worship.

Second: "And are we expected to be as Isaac- and be willing to sacrifice our sons?" No. No one is asking anyone to sacrifice their sons for anything. You made that up. More lies from you.

What is troubling is that the questions you ask reek of antisemitism. All anyone here has done is criticize the hatefulness of people who burned the Israeli flag and shouted "F*** Hillary," They spoke out for common decency, and you are by implication accusing them of "worshiping" Israel, and wanting to sacrifice Americans for Israel. The lies assumed by your questions are antisemitism.

So now I have answered your questions. Will you answer mine? I'll ask again. Do you agree with those who burned the Israeli flag? Do you agree with those who shouted "F*** Hillary?"
