Something called freedom of speech comes into play here. :)

There is a bunch of "If you disagree with me about Israel, you are anti-Semitic". Well, sorry but the people of Israel seem to want live in a self-contained delusional area behind walls and act like the rest of the Middle East does not exist.
Israel has been throwing a fit since Arafat turned down the last negotiations. The Israel army went into the Gaza and blew up Arafat's Compound and held him hostage for months. I don't know, but it seemed that was just a little too harsh. Then, Israel got into this, "We do not have a negotiating partner in the Palestinian camp" refrain that was repeated daily for years until the Israeli's themselves started actually believing it was true.
Now, Israel is acting like God has given them the green light to behave as if third part of the Bible is, "The Return of the Old Testament and glory days of triumphant victories have return to the unholy land." Well, you all are bunkered in, and that is rarely a tactic that is successful in the long run.
I suggest you come out into the sunlight and smell a rose or two and try thinking clearly again.

No. But there's a difference between asking a question and using the forum merely to hurl insults and racial/religious slurs.
I personally don't care whether people are for or against any given idea, country, religion, belief, or practice. But it's common courtesy to show at least some respect for the community, even if you don't like the subject of your question.
And when people cross the line into purely inciting hatred, without any meaningful attempt at conversation, that's a violation of the posted policies and should get reported.

What nonesense! Your bias is so obvious, and it is very nice of you to let us know your allegiance up front.
I see plenty of anti-Israel postings here that are still NOT removed, so if only pro-Israel questions are left, Yahoo! has been asleep at the helm, as I still see those anti-Israel postings.
What nonesense! How about posting a well-thought of question? I know, it's too difficult......

It rather depends on how you ask the question. It is one thing to be against what Israel is doing and quite another ot be anti-Semitic.

Yeah, right, all questions should be pro-Israel in order to not be removed. (Brother, what an idiot.)

I have said some good things about the Lebanese and nothing has been removed. I have said some good things about Muslims with no problem. It is the criminal power hungry radical terrorists that I have a problem with!

I agree with that last guy. This site has really opened my eyes to the amount of ignorance, hate, and disrespect people have for other people.

No, but all questions should at least try to be tolerant of other people's ideas and beliefs
