Searching the posts of IJK, one will find an overwhelming positon of pro-Arab and pro-Muslim taken. This in itself does not make one an Islmic Jihad Kid, but on deeper evaluation of his comments, I do wonder. Notice his reaction to being labeled this back in December on two separate threads - silence. If he was offended and considered it a flame, the least he could have done is called attention to it. Before I posted my deleted comments about IJK, I reviewed his comments over the last few months and based on his posts and attempting to provide an opportunity for him to directly defend his positons, I determined my comments were justified. This was not allowed since my post was deleted.

On another note, but indirectly related, it is rather interesting that my "raghead" thread is allowed to remain but my post calling IJK an Islamic Jihad Kid was deleted.

For the third time this week I'll explain my motives for leaving your "raghead" thread in it's closed state; when only a small portion of a thread contains flames or other TOS violations (like the thread Dovster is referring to) we will edit the offending portions, we do this to allow the other fellow members to continue posting to the thread as they often contain interesting comments, when the ENTIRE thread is a violation (like posting about "Raghead taxi drivers at LGA") then we'll close the entire thread.

Just to please you all, and after reading the 10th complaint about leaving that thread closed I have decided to delete it.
