  1. What makes you say she's a prostitute?
  2. I started this thread as on other threads the pro Israel people wouldn't answer on other threads, in particular @Evil Penevil It's like they just want to continue to take land that is not theirs and hope non Israelis don't talk about it.
  3. Why do you think Thais don't like Israelis?
  4. Please answer here, e question you've avoided a few times in the past
  5. I’m struggling to see how anyone can seriously argue that Israeli settlements in the West Bank are legal or legitimate. Under international law - particularly the Fourth Geneva Convention - they are widely regarded as illegal, and this view is held by the UN, the ICJ, and most governments worldwide. Beyond legality, the moral case also seems deeply flawed given the impact on Palestinian civilians, land rights, and any realistic chance of a negotiated peace. If anyone here believes the settlements are legal or justified, I’d be interested to hear the argument - but it would need to address these legal rulings and the humanitarian consequences, not just historical or religious claims. In particular Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has advanced plans to build a settlement in the E1 area surrounding East Jerusalem and derail the creation of a Palestinian state. https://www.thenationalnews.com/news/mena/2025/08/14/israeli-far-right-minister-aims-to-bury-idea-of-palestinian-state-with-approval-of-e1-settlements/?utm_source=chatgpt.com
  6. https://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/eurovision-2026-israel-russia-boycotts-explainer/1x47p6or9 Russia was banned from competing in Eurovision. Why has Israel been allowed to?
  7. It's a question you refuse to answer on other threads. So you think the settlements are legal, well you are far from right. As you are so oro Israel, you'll agree with the roads there that only for Jews.
  8. Can anyone say anything moral t he e IDF has done? All human rights groups seem to think they are not moral. https://www.hrw.org/news/2024/11/14/israels-crimes-against-humanity-gaza There is no plausible imperative military reason to justify Israel’s mass displacement of nearly all of Gaza’s population, often multiple times. Rather than ensuring civilians’ security, military “evacuation orders” have caused grave harm.
  9. I have my doubts to what Netanyahu and some posters here say about the IDF being the most moral army in the world. One such example is the following when IDF shot unarmed peaceful protesters. Six IDF snipers told Israeli newspaper Haaretz about their experiences "shooting knees" on the border with Gaza. https://www.newarab.com/news/israeli-snipers-brag-about-deliberately-crippling-gaza-protesters
  10. Oh yes, of course - the entire Arab world, all 22 countries, all 400+ million people, have magically agreed on one thing: that they all “don’t like or trust” Palestinians. Amazing. Truly groundbreaking geopolitical analysis. Why bother with historians, diplomats, or actual facts when you’ve solved the whole Middle East with a single sweeping stereotype? It’s especially adorable considering: The Arab League has supported a Palestinian state for decades, The Arab Peace Initiative — unanimously endorsed — literally promises full recognition of Israel if a Palestinian state is created, Several Arab governments bankroll Palestinian infrastructure, And millions of Palestinians have lived in Arab countries because those countries took them in during displacement. But sure - let’s just pretend none of that happened, and instead believe the region operates on your personal vibes. If your argument requires erasing history, ignoring official policy, and claiming psychic knowledge of what hundreds of millions of people think… maybe the problem isn’t the Palestinians. It’s the analysis
  11. You’ve listed a series of horrors and then pretended they belong to an entire religion rather than to specific cultures, governments, or extremist groups. That’s not an argument - that’s intellectual laziness dressed up as moral outrage. Child marriage? Forced marriage? FGM? These are cultural practices, not religious pillars. They exist in Hindu, Christian, animist, and atheist communities across Africa and South Asia. Child marriage still happens in rural Thailand, especially in Isarn. Pretending they belong exclusively to one faith isn’t righteous - it’s deliberately misleading. Punishment for apostasy? That’s state law in certain countries, not a universal religious command. Do you apply the same logic to Christian-majority countries that criminalised blasphemy or executed “heretics” well into the 20th century? Or does historical amnesia help the argument? Terrorist extremists? Every major religion - and every non-religious ideology - has produced violent extremists. Christianity had the IRA, the KKK, the Lord’s Resistance Army, and countless militias. Buddhism has the genocidal movements in Myanmar and Sri Lanka. Hindu nationalism is committing violence right now. Selective memory doesn’t strengthen your point; it exposes your bias. As for Nigeria: Violence there is driven by ethnicity, land disputes, militia power struggles, and corrupt governance, not some cartoonish “religion vs religion” fantasy. If you genuinely cared about the victims, you’d analyse the causes honestly instead of using them as props for your argument. And your closing line about “fake prophets” and “refusing to accept it’s 2025”? That’s not critique. That’s just bigotry wrapped in self-importance. If your position needs oversimplification, misrepresentation, and historical blind spots to survive, then the problem isn’t the religion you’re attacking. The problem is the weakness of your reasoning.
  12. A danger to Israel taking away a blockade and giving Palestine a state of their own. Do you think Gaza have a right to self defence and as right to exist?
  13. You are sick if you think 38 dead children on Oct 7 is worse than 30,000 Gazan children killed by the terrorist state you support since that date. Your islamophobia clouds your judgement You probably believe there was mass rape, beheaded babies and all the other Israeli lies.
  14. <removed> The last thing he wants is a ceasefire.
  15. This is not a ceasefire. Shame on Trump.
  16. Still waiting @Patong2021 cat got your tongue?
  17. Who do you prefer, Smotrich or Ben Gvir?
  18. My symbol is of a peaceful religion. Do you agree with the illegal settlements in the West Bank?
  19. Let all the journalists in, it's obvious they are hiding something.
  20. Do you know about Irgun and how their terrorist leader became Israel's prime minister? Do you know why Queen Elizabeth never went to Israel?
  21. Maybe you missed the Genocidal campaign in Gaza and the continuing illegal settlements and cleansing in the West Bank. I agree it's a camp contest, my gay friends go nearly every year and sing Shirley Basset sings and Gloria Gaynor. Seriously, Israel are breaking international laws, and only getting away with it because of billionaire Jewish Americans. Take a look at human rights websites if you don't believe the horrors Israel is committing.
