Shooting the messenger is always what is done when the facts on the ground can no longer be ignored, but acknowledging them would threaten the comfort of denial.


"Shooting the messenger" (to quote you) is what happens when the messenger is an incompetent idiot, who fails miserably at their job and takes down the entire UN with them. Being a corrupt terrorist sympathizer who is funded by Hamas doesn't help said messenger either.


Getting into any kind of online discussion with the "$X is khamass" crowd is generally futile.


Just pointing out a fact about AirBnB with source seems to be futile. Interesting, I would love to see the up/down votes and how they progress over time.


Going by your 'facts' and 'logic,' I guess we should just throw every politician, banker, CEO, corporate bigwig and head of state in the West into a cage, right? But something tells me you won't be going there, because it doesn't fit your precious narrative. Funny how that's your brand of 'justice'.

Yes, in case you missed it, curtailing to Islamist terrorism is futile. Don't forget your Keffiyeh and have fun at the protests!
