To be sure, conclusions will be drawn.
You've already demonstrated your unwillingness to accept what's already been unequivocally clarified and disambiguated.

Instead of apologizing for your unwarranted accusation, you've continued to attack. Additionally, you've said that that unless Ray act exactly as you demand, that you will continue to proclaim that he's a antisemetic.

You have made the unwarranted accusation. You've been told clearly by Ray that he is not an antisemite. You've been corrected by Mario and myself.

Ray is under no obligation to do what you demand. He's already gone above and beyond to clearly and unequivocally rebut you, and you've again and again ignored what he's written.

On the other hand, you have an obligation to give an public apology for the baseless accusations you've made.

What Ray has written is clear and unambiguous. What you demanded of him - as Mario pointed out - was poisoned by your own bias, and you couldn't even see it.

If you re-read what Ray's written with open eyes, you'll see that he's already taken a "unambiguous, moral and courageous stand" - and much wider than your demand to proclaim himself merely an antisemite.

I've already done that.

Your insinuation anything I've written is antisemitic is baseless slander.

Your additional demand that I unless I bow to your demand that I've proven that I'm antisemitic is offsensive and inflammatory, and warrants a full apology.
