BLUF: This is guilt by Association: only when Israel aligned itself with the United States that it became complicit.


Association Fallacy
An association fallacy is an informal inductive fallacy of the hasty-generalization or red-herring type and which asserts, by irrelevant association and often by appeal to emotion, that qualities of one thing are inherently qualities of another. Two types of association fallacies are sometimes referred to as guilt by association and honor by association.​

The Israel Boycott, Anti-Judaism, and the Giant Shrug
January 7, 2014 by Jackson Doughart
" It was only when Israel aligned itself with the United States that it became complicit, in their view, with American imperialism, and hence dismissible on principle. The Lefts anti-Israelism could thus be chalked up to the decayed ideology of anti-colonialism, which has for decades been focuses squarely on American foreign policy."
(COMMENT)

Don't get me wrong. Dr Noam Chomsky PhD, is a brilliant man. He makes some of the greatest arguments I have ever heard, or read. He could (as they say) make an argument that could convince Bill Gates he needs computer training.

BUT, he is not always right when it comes to matters of political importance and establishing an organized concept on the way - forward.

The second mistake here is what we call the "Appeal to Authority." If you are taking physics, it is right and proper to use Professor Einstien's (one of the world's preeminent Physicists) commentaries as supporting evidence. But when it comes to matters of political import relative to Israel Professor Einstien is just another Jewish Nobel Laureate with an opinion. Similarly, Dr Chomsky is just another Jewish American Researcher of Linguistics with an opinion on the matter (albeit most probably more knowledgeable than I).

Argument From Authority
An argument from authority (argumentum ab auctoritate), also called an appeal to authority, or argumentum ad verecundiam, is a form of defeasible argument in which the opinion of an authority on a topic is used as evidence to support an argument. It is well known as a fallacy, though some consider that it is used in a cogent form when all sides of a discussion agree on the reliability of the authority in the given context. Other authors consider it a fallacy to cite an authority on the discussed topic as the primary means of supporting an argument.​

As we have seen countless times, anti-Israel activism and support for terror is often hidden under a veneer of “human rights.” And here we see not only support for terror, but domestic terror itself by a “human rights lawyer.”

This “human rights lawyer” likes to wear a ski cap with a skull and crossbones.

In a final twist of irony, Rahman’s last name means “compassionate” in Arabic.

Will any real human rights groups condemn Rahman? More to the point – are there any real human rights groups in existence?

The COGAT Arabic page has some 570,000 followers. It provides critical information for people who need to cooperate with Israeli authorities, such as workers and traders who need to travel to Israel.

Last week it posted one of the videos that drive haters crazy. Israel opened up the crossings for all workers with permits to enter Israel, and it showed a 15 minute clip of Palestinian workers entering the Qalandia checkpoint – live and unedited. The workers averaged about 4 seconds at each face-recognition turnstile, and the only slowdown was when they forget to remove their mask to be recognized.
