        .@sapinker @SamHarrisOrg You and Sam are world class hypocrites and neocon lackeys with your hyper focus on Islam and giving Israel a pass.

        @sapinker @SamHarrisOrg He justified the ethnic cleansing because #Gaza is one of the most densely populated places on Earth! Really?

        @BirdTerrifier @sapinker @SamHarrisOrg The whole article's a justification for Israeli actions - ignoring how Israeli aggression started it.

        @jqbalter @sapinker @SamHarrisOrg blaming an action without knowing intent, is ignorance.
