    @The Satanic Jews of Hollywood

    This person is an absolute idiot. First you have the name, which is itself offensive. Then you have the arguments, which amount to this: "Anybody who disagrees with the actions of Israel is an anti-Semite." That argument is false across the board. If TSJoH will admit that it's possible to be opposed to Israel's actions without being in any way anti-Jew, then maybe he will be capable of having the start of an honest discussion. But, since he will never, ever admit that much, he will never be capable of an honest discussion. So what we're left with is a hate-filled propagandist with nothing to offer.
