    I don't believe in warmongering and I spent an entire career nurturing understanding, tolerance of difference and celebration of diversity

    so if that’s the case try to spend time understanding why I described some of your comments as antisemitic. that is what someone who values diversity and is tolerant would do But instead you have upped the ante on your defence and tried to limit the application of the term to a very particular time in history. An act that shows no willingness to contemplate your own actions and that is plain wrong in fact

    if you try to nurture understanding you might ry to read my posts rather then continue to try to batter me into some sort of submission. Allow me to experience my own reactions in my own way. There is absolutely nothing I have said in one single post to support Netanyahu or the way Israel respond to the gross, indecent and appalling actions of Hamas . Instead you continue to force me to defend myself by misrepresenting what I say, arguing over something I haven’t actually said, tagging me endlessly and baiting me.

    none of your actions towards me in your posts is that of a peace loving man. They are the actions of a bully. Instead of finding out how I feel you have sewn division, created conflict, fought and argued with anyone who doesn’t express themselves as you think they should. You have used labels in an attempt to denigrate

    these are not te actions of a man trying to create understanding

    I wonder what would happen if you took a step back and instead of maintaining your rage asked yourself how a man who loved peace and sought to resolve conflict might behave.

    i wonder what might happen if you set out to get yourself out of the hole you have dug so deep and tried to understand how you have ended up in an endless debate

    because if you keep up things as you have done i will continue to respond to you as I do. As long as you misrepresent my thoughts on anything and as long as you try to attack and shame me I will defend myself rather than discuss the topic. You may not realise it but you started this months ago. You just didn’t find someone who will do as you tell them to


    if you value diversity surely you can understand that people express themselves in different ways, experience things differently and may see things differently

    that does not necessarily make them a monster. In this case it doesn’t mean they have callous disregard for Gaza and its people.

    you have inflamed the situation because you cannot accept these things. And you continue to fan the flames

    how might you now take a step back, cool down, allow calmer emotions to return so the intelligent and rational conversation might return
