Terrorists attacked a Gay Pride parade in Jerusalem today. The attacker was a member of an Ultra Orthodox Jewish group.

This is the THIRD time Ultra Orthodoxers have tried to murder peaceful LGBT Israelis in J'lem.

Using your example, it's Obama's fault blacks kill each other in urban areas. Or did I completely misunderstand your correlation?

Imagine if he had access to firearms.

Its quiet here because it wasn't an Arab.

Bibi's coalition in Israel is very anti-Gay and extremely hostile towards LGBT persons.

Tel Aviv, which is wonderful, is not Bibi supporting.

The anti-Gay areas....support Bibi.

Just bringing this up so the next time y'all tell me I have to support Bibi on some issue, that his supporters aren't pro-Gay.

I feel safer and more welcome in Beirut than in Jerusalem.

I am confused. Are you claiming that Netanyahu or his coalition encouraged this attack?

Or are you just using the killers and their victims as political props in your grudge against the current Israeli government?

I think it was quiet because it wasn't a terrorist attack. It was a previously convicted criminal doing a repeat performance. If the above is the definition of a terrorist attack. Then we have terrorist attacks everyday in Chicago. If you would have said "hate" crime, I could probably agree.

It might have also been quiet because some people (not naming any names) were thinking that maybe they could relate to having the urge to stab the kind of LGBT person that would actually attend a LGBT Pride Parade.

Were there any fatalities?

Nixon appointed Chief Justice Warren Burger, a conservative Republican:

"If I were writing the Bill of Rights now, there wouldn't be any such thing as the Second Amendment ... This has been one of the greatest pieces of fraud—I repeat the word fraud—on the American people, by special interest groups, that I have seen in my lifetime. "

Are there gay pride parades in Damascus, Riyadh, Tehran, Kabul, Ankara, Baghdad, Abu Dahbi, Doha, or Cairo?

Bibi's coalition is filled with homophobes who encourage demonization of the LGBT community. They shot down a hate crimes bill last year. Many of the right wingers in Israel oppose freedom of speech, petition, protest, and assembly rights for LGBT Israelis.

I've been to J'lem. Its awful. I grew up in Alabama. Alabama is much more gay supportive than J'lem.

Tel Aviv is wonderful. The massive problem of homophobia in Israel wouldn't be so much of a problem if all Gay Israelis could afford to live there. But they can't.

Bibi points at Tel Aviv as some excuse for us to support his policies. While he ignores the real and persistent homophobia that is rampant in the parts of Israel that provide his coalition its greatest support.

I look forward to the day when the reality on the ground in Israel matches the rhetoric of Bibi's regime and its supporters. We're not there. We're not even close.

No. But Beirut, Istanbul, Amman, and Ramallah are safer and more accepting than J'lem IMHO.

The issue isnt so much that J'lem is the worst place on Earth, but it is SO much worse than the propaganda issued by Israel on its support for LGBT rights.

"Terrorist"

It is just as much a terrorist act as any other.

I guess if a Gay person is attacked by a non-Muslim, then its somehow less of a terrorist crime?

The chief Justice should have read the Federalist Papers. But that's a whole nuther thread, as they say.
