I am underwhelmed, but not at all surprised.

So you are no longer paying attention to the post which I called an invitation for a pogrom. You are now replacing the "Stop Netanyahu before he gets us all killed" with an unlikely sequence of events of your own invention which is a far cry from what I responded to, because... what, it is not as ludicrous to defend as a classic antisemitic trope?

I can go into all the patently ridiculous suppositions contained in your latest post (believe me, there is plenty of drivel there begging for ridicule), but I will not. None of them address what I said earlier, and I will not be baited away from what you objected to in the first place and are now refusing to address.
