    Did Uncle Sam give the LRA their machetes?

    This is you:

    "WHAA WHAA! WHY DONT ALL OF YOU PEOPLE LOVE ZIONISM!?!?! WHAA WHAA! WHY CANT YOU JUST ACT AS CHEERLEADER FOR RACISM AND MILITARISM AND BLINDLY SUPPORT ISRAEL!?!?!? WHAA WHAA!"

    -- Chris Sinnard

    I wasn't aware that deaths only count if somehow you feel they can be tied to the United States.

    The question was whether what is happening in Gaza right now is the worst case of civilian deaths in history, when obviously it isn't. It's not even in the top ten of whats happening right now.

    I gave the specific example of how the LRA killed the same number of civilians, yet the press and others complaining so bitterly about Gaza, haven't even mentioned it.

    We know you hate Jews. You try to disguise it as some objection to US Tax dollars being spent in aid to Israel, yet you care nothing about aid that goes to places like Uganda, where even worse human rights abuses take place.

    Since I've posted positive things about Hamas, your WAAA WAAA is the childish crying it appears to be.

    You can't stand it that others don't follow your blind hatred of Jews, so you think they must be blind in the other direction.

    Israel has made plenty of mistakes, and I have not been shy in pointing them out.
