I always puzzled over the fact that there was an article called "Allegations of Israeli Apartheid," but not one called "Allegations of New Anti-Semitism."

I'm the last person to defend Jayjg but I can't understand what he's done wrong here.

Using a deragatory description without explanation in the first case, to describe an anti israeli act while the following day qualifiying the description of something perpertrated by Israel to water it down.

Reverting an edit based on the insertion of "OR wording" (thus removing said wording), the next day, reverting a different edit to insert wording almost identical to the wording removed by him in the previous day's edit.

That's the way it struck me, also. Typical "flexible interpretation of policy through the prism of an overheated POV," also known as double standards.

OK. What I meant to say was that Jayjg could write such articles on Wikipedia Review and earn money.

When the heat is on low, Guy and I are actually kind of funny. (Definitely a good one above, Guy.)

Okay, somebody please explain the joke to me. Does anybody really think Guy C. in the UK (JzG) makes any money by editing or administrating WP?

Jayjg =/= JzG, and Jayjg is alleged to be working for super-secret-CIA overlords or something like that.

Wups, duh. Thanks. I've even talked about the similarity in names myself, and now here I'm caught by it. Yeah, Jayjg is one of those seekrit still-in-the-closet admins we don't know much about, do we? Except that he has the J and the G and the same editing patterns of the rest of the Kabbalah Cabal.

In today's episode, Jayjg violates lashon hara.

AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
Can you explain why you changed "Arab writers" to "Academics", but "the writer" to "the Jewish writer"? This seems extraordinarily inconsistent, especially for edits under an hour apart. --Jayjg (talk) 23:05, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
Chutzpah!
