Logical fallacies that Israel haters use, part 4

Continuing the series of logical fallacies that Israel haters - including academics who should know better - use when making their anti-Israel arguments.

46. The Half-Truth: "Israel had Baruch Goldstein, Palestinians have suicide bombers. What's the difference?"

47. Hero-Busting: "The Megillah itself describes a genocide by Jews planned by Mordechai!"

48. Identity Fallacy: "Israelis have stolen the Palestinian dishes of hummus and falafel!"

49. Infotainment: Every Pallywood picture and video.

50.The Job's Comforter Fallacy: "Allah turned Jewish sinners into apes and pigs."

51. "Just Do It":  "Israel must be destroyed by any means necessary (even if that means murder, rape &c.)"

52: The Law of Unintended Consequences: "Since Israel cannot predict what will happen in Gaza, it is best that they don't do anything militarily."

53: Lying with Statistics: "Israel has 51 laws discriminating against Palestinians."

54. The Tiny Percentage Fallacy: "The number of Palestinians who actually try to murder Jews is quite small, don't exaggerate their importance."

55. Mala Fides (Arguing in Bad Faith): "Zionists partnered with Nazi executioners of Jews with the Haavara Agreement."

56. Measurability: "Antisemitism is a thing of the past; when you ask people if they hate Jews for no reason nearly all say they don't."

57. Mind-reading: "No matter what they say, Israel intends to kill innocent Palestinian civilians."

58. Moral Licensing: "Hamas supports a lot of poor people in Gaza; they are allowed to defend them by shooting rockets at Jews."

59. Moral Superiority: "Since Muslims are so much more moral than Jews, they can do whatever is necessary to destroy the evil"

60. Moving the Goalposts: "Okay, so there are witnesses to rape on October 7 who have come forward, but they are all unreliable."

61. "Mind Your Own Business": "I don't have to justify my tweets glorifying Hamas on October 7. Blocked."

62. Name calling: "Never read her column. She's an Islamophobic racist."
