    All it means is that nobody brought the topic of that chant up, on either side. In the case of the condemnation of HAMAS though, it was brought up and the fact that you refuse to condemn them.

    Your 35 pages of search results is due to the fact that our search engine sucks. It doesn't search for entire phrases. If you type in "Jews will not replace us" it will return search results for the individual words. I did a search on Google for "Jews will not replace us" site:theologyweb.com and it returned zero results. Meaning the phrase was not discussed by anyone pro or con. Not every event in the news is discussed on Tweb.

      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        I am not sure how you equate that with anti-Semitism.

            At best we might drag out a "won't condone" out of her.

              No, it's not that. I would wager if we go back we'd find comments about that phrase. But, to put it into perspective, it would be like talking on Oct 8th about the fact that a Hamas official said something anti-semitic. There might JUST have been something more important that was sucking up the discussion energy that had happened the day before rather than discussing a comment.

                I find it interesting that no one appeared, at the time, to have condemned the Charlottesville chant.

                  Is there a sliding scale for the use abusive and pejorative language? Was the Charlottesville rally only to be condemned because the "liberal media jumped on the whole thing like a duck on a June bug"?

                  Would it otherwise have gone unnoticed, even though James Fields Jr, a neo Nazi, deliberately drove his car into the crowd killing Ms Heyer and leaving several other people in a critical condition?

                      Perhaps because many were arguing against the lies about Trump saying that there were good people on both sides. But the fact is, given your support of radical Muslims, the Charlottesville chant must have been music to your ears...
