		<description>Assimilation has a definite meaning, and keeping a separate identity doesn&#039;t fit the definition. I didn&#039;t comment on what anyone should or shouldn&#039;t do, but you can&#039;t claim to be assimilated when you haven&#039;t assimilated. What&#039;s so difficult about that?    </description>

		<description>&quot;you still advocating killing all of them.&#8221;    Where on earth did you get that? Do you really believe that frank dialogue unflattering to political Judaism is the equivalent of attempted murder? Only a Zionist would argue that disagreeing with him is akin to trying to kill him. The Zionist authoritarian megalomania (&#039;How dare you disagree with my assessment; your impudence is an insult, an attack!...Genocide! Genocide!) is truly epic.  </description>

		<description>It takes only one set of blueprints for a permanent war to be in action. When someone brings his own permanent war plans and execute them against you, your reaction is by no means a different version of the permanent war. In brief Muslims Arabs have no blueprint for permanent war, they just react to the one Israelis impose on them.  </description>

		<description>@ ismail,  I&#8217;m not throwing anyone under the bus. I&#8217;m merely pointing out that so long as Judaism by and large conflates religion and politics (ie political Judaism), to first identify oneself as a Jew and then simultaneously declare that your working towards a post-tribal world is a contradiction. Weiss somewhat mitigates this by working against political Judaism&#8217;s Zionist incarnation. However, between his anti-Christianity (albeit soft) and his Left-Statist politics, he re-embraces a previous incarnation of political Judaic tribalism -- Jewish Bolshevism.    Why would any sane human being reject Zionism as intolerant, bigoted and murderous, but then embrace an ideology that is more intolerant, bigoted and murderous? Yet that&#8217;s exactly what so many of the left-wing anti-Zionist Jews are doing. I know Weiss is no Jewish Bolshevik totalitarian, but neither were a lot of the other Jews who got swept up in Communism.  </description>
