Not only that, the Israelites exterminated the Amalekites!
Well, not completely, apparently; Haman, the descendant of Agag, appears to
have survived.
Let's not split hairs over the Israeli genocide of Amalekites.
If the original
ban was for the choice of user name,
The ban obviously had nothing to do with username choice; however, the
editor identifies with the Amalekites, either in identifying with those who
attempted to commit genocide against Israelites, or in feeling he is
targeted for genocide by them. In either case, it is indicative of his
mindset.
Jay.
Attempted to commit genocide against the Israelites? By being
attacked and killed down to the very last suckling infant by the order
of Yahweh? I guess it's true then, that the victors write the history
books. Being enemies is one thing; committing genocide is quite
another. "Attempted to commit genocide" by being the victim of
genocide. Wow.
If you are correct about his mindset, why should we continue to feed
his "victim of genocidal hatred" mindset? "Indicative of his
mindset"
is not a good excuse for persecuting someone, which is what we've
continued to do by leaving the indefinite block in place, given that
no other policy than "IAR" supports the ban.
