Since I specifically framed the comparison in discussing the failure of the left to appeal to liberals who had supported Kosovo intervention, but who were undecided on Palestine. I noted that the left was missing the chance to make the appeal because they were not engaging in the right moral comparisons.
God knows I would never bring up Kosovo to convice anyone here of anything, since there continues to be more sympathy here for the Serbs in Kosovo who participated in the cultural suppression and then murder of the Albanian Kosovars than for their victims. The point was to note the ineffectiveness of much of the left propaganda on Palestine.
