You linked to an article quoting Israel Shamir - a known Holocaust denier. You also said "great DUers" while linking to an OP started by someone that's been banned from DU for being an antisemite.

I'm not sure why you're confused on people questioning why you're quoting and linking to these people. If you stopped linking to articles to justify your position with quotes from a freaking Holocaust denier IN YOUR EXCERPT, people wouldn't question your motives. If you didn't link to old threads started by and heavily participated in by someone banned for being an antisemite people wouldn't question your motives.

This is a pretty simple concept.
