    Interesting that you’ll only admit that I’m right within the bounds of what supports your argument and then deny, as you, yourself, pointed out everything else.

    That’s called cherry-picking, and it’s a logical fallacy.

      Cherry picking, suppressing evidence, or the fallacy of incomplete evidence is the act of pointing to individual cases or data that seem to confirm a particular position while ignoring a significant portion of related and similar cases or data that may contradict that position.

      I did not do this so explain what exactly I cherry picked. Zionism, which is what the current conflict is about, has only existed for a little over a 100 years.
