You're not using reasoning skills though, as you yourself point out, another group that has a totally different reason may be the one that is the real percentage, what you are trying to argue is that one thing must mean another thing, that disapproving of Israeli policy must mean hatred of Israel, when all it means is disapproval of Israeli policy. Until you can show that Liberals make up the majority of that 7%, all you have is that 7% of Americans hate Israel, and that Liberals are more likely to prefer Palestine, but the two aren't interchangeable nor does one indicate the other, heck, a person could hate Israel and Palestine as well, it isn't a zero sum game as you seem to think. |
No... it's not bias. Once again... it's basic reasoning skills.
A points to B points to C. Lack of any other reasonable conclusion leads to C.
The fact that you can't draw these connections is really mindboggling. I mean... why would moderates... who like Israel more then Liberals HATE Israel... even though they like it more then Liberals.
I don't need to "show" anything. Just about anyone can tell you your being quite ridiculious.
But hey one last example.
