Has Americans for Peace Now Banned Me?

I tried, again, to leave a comment at the Americans for Peace Now website.

This article has a claim I thought incorrect and I left this:







But I got this:






So, I attempted resetting the password and all I got was this:


Now, how can I engage in thoughtful, reasonable and democratic debate if I can't leave a comment?

You can use someone else's up address until they seek to ban that too?

Seems there was a glitch. And as I know Lara personally, she responded with a correction notice:

@ymedad You aren't blocked. There's a non-Winky-specific IT glitch. I've posted your comment myself (typo corrected). Thanks for flagging.

Pays to be friendly even if rivals.

Yisrael Medad and Lara Friedman are ideological opposites but she does believe in the right to present a different point of view.

That speaks very highly of her and her posting his comment - well there are few people who would do that for someone with whom they differ.

Well done and kudos to Americans For Peace Now!

back to the underlying issue. YMedad is hoist on his own petard; he's got only himself to blame. HE wants to create a "Jewish" state whose the diaspora consists of any Jew anywhere. Not only dumb; but also not in keeping with previous instantiations of a Hebrew Sovereign entity. I personally believe that "Judaism" as we know it didn't really comprise the monotheistic beliefs of the HEbrews until Ezra & Nechemiah decided it must be so, AFTER the first return from Exile. In fact, it sure looks like David ha-Melech SPECIFICALLY decided to bother conquering Jerusalem and establishing a secular capital there, to put daylight between himself, and the YHWH-cultic-priests who ran Shiloh. The YHWH-cult priests, of course, wanted ALL available in-kind offerings and ALL the Shrine Taxes going to THEMSELVES. None to the competition!!
