". . .your racism is not the issue here, really. i think your and other's lack of appreciation for the diversity that makes our country not only unique but great and your willingness to demean good communities and people for acknowledging that diversity is the issue, the inherent racism notwithstanding."
"you should address coyotes observations
about other ethnicities flying their flags but, well, i guess those other ethnicities aren't the type of ethnicities you object to."
What I meant is simple- Palestine won't exist unless there is a secure Israel at its side
Unlike wishful thinking of some, Palestine won't come instead of Israel.
Palestine will be for the Palestinians like Israel will be for the Jews.
Problem solved.
what a complete load of boolshite.
how many times in the past few years have i heard "judea and samaria belong to israel". you've said it too. what the hell...what, i ask again (and again and again) what do you or jews propose as borders for your apartheid, pariah, "shitty little country".
you will never have peace in the mideast. it is contrary to jewish nature.
nothing has soured me more on jews, not just israelis, as a culture more than this incident. what a petty and vindictive and little people you are. you are so insecure and jealous that you cannot even let these people have even a moment of pride in america.
i still can't believe jews attacked this community the way they did for just flying a flag. diversity is the american dream. attacks on diversity is the american nightmare and jewish americans are no better than palestinian americans, no matter what they think.
You're trolling. I am not going to take that post seriously.

i am not trolling anything.
nothing has disgusted me more about american jews as a group more than this incident. evangelical christians aren't faring to well in my book either but the main attacks have come from jewish groups.
we get it already. you hate arabs and muslims. y'all are dancing around the issue.

Why do you think any Jew, American or otherwise, should give a rodent's round rump about whether or not some anonymous ID on a chatboard professes to be 'disgusted' by anything we may say or do, sealie?
The kind of person who perennially makes snide references to 'kapos' and has flat-out stated that 'Jews pushed their own families into cattle cars to get an extra bit of bread' (words to that EXACT effect) - well, that's just someone who is not a very useful 'witness' re: the behavior of any Jews at any time.
That one little 'habit' of yours, seal, has convinced me that yours is a voice not worthy of my serious consideration.
Getting back to the OP, it was the Mayor who knowingly and willingly broke a law by flying the flag of a 'country' with a terrorist organization for a government. Oh, I know it was only an obscure state law so it's alright to ignore because it's really about honoring the poor, poor Palis and the law doesn't apply in this case. When and if Palestine becomes a state it will be honored in the proper place and not in a hotbed of Islamic worship.
PC: You have NOT read 'all' the posts, merely all the ones which remained up. If you PM me, I can give you the details.
I've already addressed the topic. I stated:
Cambridge MA has outlawed nuclear war.
Paterson NJ has recognized 'Palestine'.
Both equally as important and effective.
(or words to that effect - I think that's close enough).
As to the motivation of the person supplying the flag, I HOPE it was simply the positive form of 'ethnic' pride - I will assume it was until that person states something to contradict it.
As to the mayor: if Hoss has quoted the law accurately and there was no US flag *higher* than the other, the flag flying was certainly in violation of flag etiquette for certain.
Perhaps many people do not know those 'rules' - one would hope that a mayor did. Flag Code
your people have become the brazen giant. it is time to truly remember your roots and the hardships you once endured.
i welcome palestinians and all new immigrants to this country. we were once you.

this is NOT DIVERSITY........................
it's a sick existence..........................

There is something that has been bothering me about this whole issue. It seems to me that if a law had been broken then there would be people coming out of the woodwork ( Pam Geller comes immediatly to mind because of the stink she made about the bus adds ) to see that charges were brought against those responcible. I mean you can't tell me that with all the fuss and bother that this has generated that the people who have raised that fuss and bother are so benign that they would not at the very least file a civil suit.
I also would like to see the law that has been violated. I have asked for it before and I still have not seen it.
"your people have become the brazen giant. it is time to truly remember your roots and the hardships you once endured."
Am I to understand by the above that you meant 'American Jews'? And that Coyote endorses that particular statement?
If so, I'd like to know how either of you finds such a statement any more accurate or acceptable than if one were to make such blanket allegations about some other group of Americans?
Particularly when I've made it very clear that I hold no such views - and I'm not the only Jewish poster here to have said so.
the issue is not about the raising of a palestinian flag in NJ, per se. nor is it about comparing it any other action such as the one in cambridge MA. the issue is that a good man, by all accounts, of a good american city decided to include in his celebration of the good american value of welcoming a diverse citizenry...a citizenry so wonderfully depicted by the portuguese and jewish writer in her poem, "the new colossus"...and the subsequent maligning and condemnation of this man and his community by groups and individuals, and particularly jewish groups and individuals.
