  1. The criticism of this plan is also coming from within Israel: “‘Humanitarian city’ would be concentration camp for Palestinians, says former Israeli PM Ehud Olmert says forcing people into camp would be ethnic cleansing, and anger at Israel over Gaza war is not all down to antisemitism” https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jul/13/israel-humanitarian-city-rafah-gaza-camp-ehud-olmert
  2. No, they are not the same thing as those you list. Holocaust denial is a very different thing, it’s not rooted in ignorance or a need to accept simple explanations for complex issues, it’s rooted in hatred.
  3. Do you have a credible link to the 25,000 Hamas number you have stated?
  4. Though the claim Trump is making is new.
  5. Let’s stick with the feeble mental gymnastics of Trump and give the false equivalence a miss.
  6. The stable genius has come up with this madness: “Trump asked Saturday why any publicity would be given to what he claimed was files authored by former President Barack Obama, former Secretary of State and his 2016 rival Hillary Clinton, former FBIDirector James Comey, former CIADirector John Brennan, and “the Losers and Criminals of the Biden Administration, who conned the World with the Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, 51 ‘Intelligence’ Agents, ‘THE LAPTOP FROM HELL,’ and more?” The president, who presented no evidence for his claims, said that “they created the Epstein files” as well as the “FAKE Hillary Clinton/Christopher Steele Dossier.” Meanwhile, Bannon has had this to say: Trump “has become the deep state” because he is “covering up for pedophiles.” https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-epstein-files-release-fbi-truth-bondi-b2787973.html
  7. I missed that, when did it happen?
  8. Nah. He was trolled and he bit.
  9. Trump removing Rosie O’Donnell’s citizenship isn’t a thing, which leaves three possibilities: 1. He’s got no idea what he’s talking about. 2. His fragile man-child ego got the better of him. 3. It’s more evidence his head is turning into bitter jello. None of these options are mutually exclusive.
  10. Please leave me out of your weird fantasies.
  11. It wouldn’t take too many iterations to determine if burning effigies of minority peoples is a hate crime. Just repeat the exercise while changing the minority group until it becomes clear.
  12. Why don’t you start a thread in that or better still post in one of the already existing threads discussing the matter. I certainly don’t want to participate in taking this thread off topic.
  13. Yes, I have a NYT subscription. It is however not the OP.
  14. It’s certainly not only me. I do hope we all read numerous sources of news on the dreadful war in Gaza to keep our selves informed, here’s Politico (a reliable and trusted news source) discussing the subject of staying out of prison: ”The Israeli leader is trying to stay in office and avoid prison on corruption charges, two linked desires that have long made him vulnerable to the demands of far-right members of his governing coalition.” Absolutely not something only I came up with. https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2024/01/08/netanyahu-israeli-leader-losing-control-00134146?utm_medium=social&utm_source=LinkedIn
  15. Which I explained in the OP The primary source article is from the NYT behind a paywall, the open source link, as I explained, is a summary of the former. I was transparent on the matter.
  16. My OP is based on an article from a reputable news outlet, I did not embellish the article with anything beyond its subject matter and I’m certainly not trying to take the thread off topic.
  17. I didn’t say he’s been convicted, however, he’s not simply facing (currently on hold corruption charges), there’s a little matter of accusations before the international court too. I don’t subscribe to the belief that neither of these serious matters presents any risk of prison. I certainly have not said Netanyahu should be put in prison before following the justice system.
  18. I believe there are threads on that.
  19. Yes, highlight the bit where I say he should be put in prison, and as you claimed, before following the justice system. At no time have I said Netanyahu should be put in prison before following the justice system. Which is why you can’t produce any stately from me in which I say such a thing. “jumping the gun by having him in prison before following the justice system procedure.” In the absence of such statements, how about addressing the article in the OP?
  20. Just point to the bit where I suggested putting him in prison.
  21. Can you point to the bit where I have suggested putting him in prison?
  22. The implication you yourself apply is a non sequitur. I don’t imply anything of the sort. The article states Natanyahu extended the war to keep himself out of prison and makes reference to opportunities to end the war that he did not take up together with acting to end a ceasefire. I have made no statement on ‘all conflict in the middle east’, that too was something you yourself inserted.
  23. You should perhaps read the article.
  24. You are confusing political self interest for democracy. I would prefer the war not be extended and expanded to keep Netanyahu out of prison.
