Did i say genocide? No. I said ethnic cleansing which is what the proposition is. That's not Hitler, only Stalin, Milosevich and those guys. Mere lightweights.

Let's take a reality check for a second. If someone proposes pushing an entire ethnicity out of an area, I think that's quite comfortably described as ethnic cleansing. Like I said, the ideal of some illustrious people. There's no fallacy there, it's the idea and the history.

The reason I find that ideal reprehensible, is precisely because it is the mindset which created Jewish troubles. Romans wanted them gone, babylonians wanted them gone, and what is happening here is the pattern repeating and it would bring about the same result, more misery. only the names have changed. I see people here trying to be saints out one side of their mouths while talking evil with the other.
Israel is not served by besmirching its reputation by crushing the remaining inhabitants of the area. That would be a monkey on their back for all time, no matter the immediate gains.

Oh and distasteful holocaust reference. It doesn't suit you, when I'm guessing you have more game than that.
