    I simply asked you why he mentioned "gassing" when that never happened in Israel, it happened to the Jews.

    Using anti-semitism as a response for hiding the crimes of the Israel government is disgusting. Einstein once said he would hate to see the Israelis do to the Palestinians what the Nazis done to the Jews, and that has happened."

    He did mention the Jews.

    Would I ban someone from Celtic park or insult a Celtic player who was in the OO?

    Of course not

    Well I would have thought if you are going to tell me what he did or did not actually say, you'd want to be sure of your facts?

    He specifically mentioned Bitton, he specifically mentioned "Israel", he mentions "gassing" Bitton, but heaven forfend we should call him an anti-Semite.

    Yes. It wasn't part of his tirade, his reason for hating Bitton. His friend piles in and it takes off through hatred. He says horrible things to make himself feel good and to dehumanise Bitton further. However it would not have been said if it wasn't for support by Bitton for Israeli/Zionist actions.

    The reason for his anger is not Bittons religion/race even though it becomes a target

    It "wasn't part of his tirade"?

    Can you not read?

    "Gassing would be to good for him"

    Are we to excuse that because it was not "Part of his tirade"?

    A spokesperson for the NUS said: “These are utterly contemptible comments, which have absolutely no place in either the student movement or wider society. We are not aware of this individual ever having held elected office within, or being a representative of, NUS. These comments stand in complete contrast to the tolerance and inclusivity we value as an organisation and of the society we want to see.”

    But Mindy thinks it's okay <ok>

    It wasn't

    It was suggested by someone else

    People say stupid **** all the time, even when they aren't angry

    Even I am guilty of this...calling the perpetrators of the Glasgow Airport attack "Paki Bastards", but in my defence I was surrounded by Norn Iron Prods at the time...
