JimmyJ Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 (edited) Under international law, Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian territories is illegal, and under international law an occupied country has the right to resist. Palestinians have a right to "armed struggle" against their illegal occupier – Israel. Edited January 29, 2023 by JimmyJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do you think that's OK? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primarily was reacting to at least 1 poster referring to the murdered Palestinians as "terrorists". Was the French resistance during WWII "terrorists"? Certainly the occupier would have used that or similar terms. Edited January 29, 2023 by JimmyJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Israel authorities went into arrest Islamic Jihad terror operatives who were planning major terror attacks , they resisted arrest and opened fire on the Israelis and a fire fight ensued and they got killed , they were terrorists who got killed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the targets are civilians, it is terrorism and should not be legitimized. The comparison with the French is not relevant as they usually targeted the German military or infrastructure. Having said that, Israel is also prompt to qualify as terrorism any armed opposition, without making any distinction. As about the recent events, when you have, for example, a 13 years old boy as perpetrator, it shows how the situation is really <deleted> up.

Those "dozens of countries with far worse laws, human rights records, killings of journalists and repression of their population or minorities" are off topic. If there were threads about them we'd have something to say about them as well. Oh, really? So point me to your posts about the Iranian government and their cold-blooded torture-murder of dozens of students and protesters. I'm sure there must be several since this has been going on for a while. I'm sure, like the many posts here about Israel, that your posts hectoring the Iranian government are filled with ironic references to "Fascists" and "pogroms" and other words that just happen to be those describing the Nazis. Just one post of yours and your point is well taken. If there are however no posts about Iran and their far far far far far worse behaviour over the last several months, then you're a liar and full of it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyJ Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I read that the synagogue was in a "settler" village, elsewhere "very close to a 'settler' village", and all the msm articles give no info on that. Can't find anything definitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
