  1. I don't think it's a coincidence that this happened after Bibi put together a far-right government and placed people in very powerful positions who believe it is Israel's divine right to occupy all disputed territories.
  2. I think it's out of desperation. They've come to believe that they'll never live freely in their homeland and that more and more of their land will be taken from them. Maybe they just don't see a future worth living in and their only goal is to enact as much pain and suffering for the group they blame for their hopeless lot in life.
  3. we're going to get dragged into another war in the middle east. awesome.
  4. I mean, I'm sitting here arguing with a complete moron. It's a moment of introspection for me and not something I'm proud of.
  5. The irony here is that @Porterhouse has a Come and Take It flag waving at his house right now.
  6. Hamas is celebrating the murder of innocent people through terrorism. The Israeli that started this lovely exchange celebrated the murder of people through terrorism. Are those facts helpful at all for you?
  7. No my comment was about a far-right, ultra nationalist that deifies Jewish terrorists and has stated that Palestinians should be removed from Gaza and that his family's right to live in freedom trumps that of Palestinians' rights to live in freedom. I was hopeful we might find common ground in condemning him as the piece of shit he is, but your brain can't get there and still make sense of anything.
  8. Are you able to process anything here in any other capacity beyond 'Israel good, Palestine bad'?
  9. A little more info from wikipedia. Sounds like he's the Jewish version of Hamas. Good thing he was put in a position of power.
  10. how fucking stupid do you have to be to say 'it's unjustifiable to kill women, children and the elderly and it must stop' right after you just slaughtered women, children and the elderly?
  11. Wait are you saying you have to commit war crimes and genocide to win a war? Are you always this stupid?
  12. I'll make sure not to harbor terrorists, per your sage advice. Thanks for the reminder.
  13. We're referring to their plan to cut off water, food and electricity and lay siege to Gaza, which was the quoted plan from a high-level IDF leader. Not a single person here is suggesting that Israel declaring war and going on the offensive to wipe out Hamas is genocide. That said, given the most recent statements made by the IDF it sounds like their US masters made clear that isn't going to fly.
  14. Dude you're way out over your skis here. Maybe go grab some brisket and take a nap?
  15. You think we're going to continue to support a country that committed genocide to the tune of 2MM+?
  16. Same statement could be said about the Palestinians. The situation is so completely and utterly broken/untenable that neither side sees any hope in the future. Which makes decision-making a fraught exercise.
  17. Oh it's a huge fucking pickle, I'm well aware. But I tend to think that committing genocide will not work out in Israel's favor in the long-term.
  18. There is an immediate desire/need for revenge. Then there is the ongoing need to remain a state in good standing with the rest of the world. We've heard every Western leader come out and state their country's absolute support for Israel's right to defend herself. But if they decide to murder 2 million people? I'm not sure that's a tenable situation for Israel moving forward.
  19. I tend to think their collective mindsight is 'what's the point of living if we can't live freely'. You pose a good question, and I suppose we're about to find out, but damn this is bad.
  20. I just don't see how a state that was created in response to the genocide of Jews can turn around and starve 2 million people to death. Also, I don't think Israel can do much of anything without US approval.
  21. and if that doesn't work, they flip the switch and give them food, water and electricity?
  22. so what's the plan regarding cutting off food, water and electricity to 2 million people?
