Quote West Leeds Rhino="West Leeds Rhino"I struggle to understand how one would start a post without bias. Surely, the fact that a thread has been started on any subject would identify that the OP has an opinion on the matter and therefore a bias?
The debate was opened by opining that anti-semitism is being used as an excuse for poor political policies, you are the only contributor to the thread who hasn't continued with the debate theme by stating that the whole thread is anti-semitic and therefore should not be discussed.'"
Exactly. Which does exactly what the OP described.
In a way, there couldn't be a better illustration of what the OP was about.
I would add, incidentally, that I think that the approach of screaming 'anti-semitism' whenever criticism of the state of Israel occurs has been so successful that similar versions have been adopted by many other groups, from Muslims complaining about 'Islamophobia' in the face of any criticism of Islam or the behaviour of some Muslims, to Christians complaining about being persecuted for being Christian (and for the sake of clarity, on the latter, I mean in places such as the UK, not places where they are suffering persecution).
