    Pinkwashing is a term I had never heard before. It refers to "an accusation often levied against Israel that the government uses its record on gay rights to hide its crimes against Palestinians."

    I don't know or care how people feel about promoting two dad families, but using that crap as propaganda to cover for war criminality is simply beyond me.

    What say you?

    Israel’s Right Wing-Paper Features Ad With Gay Dads

    Naomi Zeveloff

    Israel Hayom, Israel’s right-wing newspaper affiliated with the ruling Likud party, surprised some by printing a full-page ad for a Nissan Sentra with two gay fathers this week.

    [​IMG]

    The ad depicted a family of four with two young fathers and their school-age son and daughter with the phrase “Put your family in the Sentra.”

    Avi Mayer, spokesman for the Jewish Agency for Israel and a prolific tweeter, called the ad “awesomewashing.” He was playing on the term “pinkwashing,” an accusation often levied against Israel that the government uses its record on gay rights to hide its crimes against Palestinians....

    their poster is bull(*)(*)(*)(*), as the map on the left makes believe all the land in green was OWNED by Arabs.

    it was not.

    most of the green land, was STATE land, not privately owned.

    First time I heard of the actual term, but I did know the practice - not so much in Israel, but rather here, where right-wingers all of a sudden turned zealous gay defenders. I thought I was pretty much acceptative myself, but these guys passed me on my right so fast after 9/11, they left only a puff of smoke.

    Today, it's with black guys. Gawd, ain't those rightwing guys in love - with true love, not the condenscending one of "liberals" - with their black brother, all of a sudden.

    Not well-debunked enough it seems, in spite of the monstruous means your side has at his diposal to force the damn pill down our throats.

    So IMO you'd better get ready to defend it some more.

    sorry bro, but the area in green in the map to the left, was NOT all owned by Arabs.

    much of that was state land

    Yeah. If I were you, I would try that snake-oil pitch to somebody else, unless you start making sense. It's a no-sell here.

    facts are troubling?

    the map shows Jewish-owned land in white, and everything else in green.

    but the green was mainly state-owned land, so its a false map.

    facts. truth.

    Not in the way you were doing it, no (I thought I made that clear).

    But please don't let it prevent you to continue, if you wish...

    Okay - I am going to oblige.

    Essentially, what you want to express is this, right?

    [​IMG]

    And then you want me to prove that the bllsht up above is wrong. Is that it?

    To quote Hannibal Lechter - you hope to dissect me with this dull little blade?

    um...the red writing isn't exactly accurate either.

    now, the map on the left, what does the white area represent?

    I just took the first relevant entry - just the image, I didn't visit any site, so I can't tell you if the red writing is pro- or against- the orange one.

    You are not going to drive, Ron. We are going to cut to the chase. =). If I don't drive, I drop here.

    Do you agree with the orange writing? Does it represent your view?

    no, orange writing is a little off.


    now, map on the left, what does the white area represent?

    Not debunked at all, actually. The maps are certainly real.
