Why wasn't this post deleted?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=124&topic_id=347866&mesg_id=347918

It appears to be in violation of the following rules:

"Do not post accusations of anti-Semitism, racism, bigotry, personal attacks, plagerism, duplicate threads or any other rules violation. This includes claims against yourself or other people. Such posts add nothing to the discussion and often create more problems than the original rules violation. Use the "Alert" button"

"Do not compare Middle East regional leaders and parties to Hitler or the Nazis. Use of these terms is considered inflammatory and should be avoided."

I have alerted on it, but it has not been deleted, and I'm curious as to why not.

1. I'm going to defer to the moderators of the Israel/Palestine forum.
This looks like one of those borderline cases.

2. Could you clarify when accusations of Nazism are and aren't acceptable, then, please?

And possibly update the rule forbidding it, if it's not going to be enforced?

3. According to the moderators of that forum
they did not receive any alerts on the post.

Looks like a glitch.
