There should be a headline[edit]

Tempted to nuke, rather than fix. "All criticism of Israel is inherently anti-Semitic" isn't really an opinion that suits the site's mission. ikanreed You probably didn't deserve that 01:47, 6 July 2016 (UTC)

Who ever said that? I certainly did not and the article does not either. But criticising certain policies is different from trying to starve out an entire people by boycotting it. 62.212.73.246 (talk) 01:50, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
You literally invoked nazism in the first sentence. This article is trash, and you're not being honest about it. ikanreed You probably didn't deserve that 02:04, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
Nazis boycotted Jews in 1933. BDS is calling for boycotting Jews today. Where's the difference? 62.212.73.246 (talk) 02:08, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
We can talk about this again in the morning. For now, you're edit warring a shitty, shitty article, so enjoy a nice short ban. ikanreed You probably didn't deserve that 02:10, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
You certainly are saying that all criticism of Israel is anti-Semitic because you are equating Jews with Israel. Israel has many Jews but they also have Christian, Muslim, Druze, and Bahai minorities within their borders. This article should have more nuance than what you are writing.--Owlman (talk) (mail) 02:33, 6 July 2016 (UTC) 02:33, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
Yes, Israel does indeed contain this great variety of different ethnic, religious and political groups. Hamastan (aka Gaza) however, does not. So why are people honestly trying to boycott Israel and not Hamas? Is it because Israel has more Christians? 62.212.73.246 (talk) 21:26, 6 July 2016 (UTC)

So why is this artikle constantly being deleted?[edit]

This is clearly an important topic.

Do you delete it because it threatens your pro-Hamas narrative? Please at least discuss this... 62.212.73.246 (talk) 21:23, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
