    something stinks

    The doctor is insane. She will either ignore your point or come up with an equally stupid argument from her crib sheet which needs to be updated.

    And she wouldn't have it any other way. It should be pretty clear by now that this is how it works with Zionist Apologists. It is the same pattern every time there is an article related to Israel. The first line of action is not to discuss said article, but to get the discussion where the Zionists' want it, a debate about proper framing that can last forever as both sides go back and forth with their "which came fist, the Zionist Jew or the Palestinian". Whether they do it consciously or not, it is the most weasel worded and intellectually dishonest way to keep the discussion where the Zionist wants it, and they wouldn't have it any other way!

    I mean, God forbid real issues or the points raised in the article get discussed. There is always obfuscating and distracting to be done, so lets get into a discussion about framing instead!
