.....as someone who has lived her entire life in Israel ....(and mostly among liberals and moderates)......I have encountered much more of the "bloodthirsty Palestinian" one .

Which is why I bolded and underlined this part ....

It's time to stand up and answer the know-it-all social media zealots who, from the comfort and insulation of their armchairs in North American suburbs, post incessantly about how all Palestinians — people whom they've never ever met nor spoken with — are fanatic,......

Kind of think that was Bradley Burston's point ....dont you ??

Am I a 'Disgusting Racist' for Calling Palestinians Evil When They Sanctify Death and Jew Hatred? Little Tich Sep 2016 #7
Good response by Liebler. Burston deflects from criticizing Pal'n leadership. n/t shira Sep 2016 #9
After reading both the OP by Bradley Burston and the first one by Isi Leibler, Little Tich Sep 2016 #8
If Liebler is racist in your view, there's no question Mondoweiss is too... shira Sep 2016 #10
We have different views on what constitutes racism. Little Tich Sep 2016 #17
Mondoweiss & Gideon Levy attack Jews, not merely an ideology or country. shira Sep 2016 #22
If racism is about targeting a person or group due to their ethnicity, I want you.... shira Sep 2016 #34
