Jingthing Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) I don't like to see the Israeli flag in Gaza though I understand an adrenaline pumped brave IDF soldier doing that. Israeli needs to occupy Gaza like they need a hole in the head. Castrate Hamas and cooperate with international / Palestinian Authority forces so that they (not Israel) establishes a new government there and then get the hell out!

Morch Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 53 minutes ago, MrMojoRisin said: No it's not. The more books cited the better. From both sides. I have already added "The Strange Death of Europe" to my reading list. The only reason to bother posting in forums such as this one is to learn, to test ones own beliefs and if the facts require it, change ones opinions. Only the small minded think they are here to "win". Here's an interesting link: https://www.vox.com/23924319/israel-palestine-apartheid-meaning-history-debate Read it, question what is being said and if you cannot refute it - change your opinion. Most of what you do on these topics got nothing to do with 'learning', though. And by your own definition, you are small minded. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antisemites are always pushing the now DEBUNKED Ashkenazi - Khazar conversion origin theory. Even if it was true, which it is not. it doesn't make any difference. The antisemities just love to use it for their vile white colonialism theories about how Israel should have never existed, and should be abolished now. It's not antisemitic to study the topic academically, but the way Israel demonizers exploit that debunked theory certainly is.

It is nothing but complaints from you. No one cares about your whinging. The moderators will moderate. How about you try and contribute something worthwhile for a change? The current death toll of Palestinian kids is 2,913 - what do you think about that?

Why don't you just ignore anything that doesn't interest you? My guess is, that 185 pages in, you have learned nothing. Do us all a favour and keep your pessimistic snide nonsense to yourself. You do not speak for all of us. You do not seem to seem to have learned anything much either. Pretty much the same all along the topic. A whole lot of vitriol, faux emo, deflections and so on. Relatively little on topic. Almost nothing on offer as per events other than repeating the same few messages on loop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I especially enjoy reading books at odds with my personal views and the best place to find them is, I've found, here. I have absolutely zero interest at all in scoring points against anonymous keyboard warriors. How utterly meaningless. I am looking for strong arguments against which to test my beliefs. I'd rather be right than "win" and if that means a bit of self reflection and changing of opinions and views - I am all for it. As far as I'm concerned, if I am wrong, the sooner I become aware of my error, the better. I'll give you that point scoring is maybe only comes third place for you. Right after flaming and deflecting. You are offered arguments against your position on plenty of posts. You do not address them, but deflect, twist and move goal posts. You do, however, seem to have a very good opinion of yourself. Sadly (or not) it is not share by many (or even most) participants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have repeatedly condemned Hamas. Islamic terrorism is a blight on humanity. The best way to defeat it is to take away every ounce of legitimacy from their cause. By far, by far, the greatest asset Islamic terrorists have is the utterly appalling, inhumane, illegal and horrifying treatment of the Palestinians at the hands of the Israeli's. The world is paying a price for the proclivities of right wing extremist religious nutters hellbent on expanding Israel from the sea to the river. P!ssweak American politicians enable this nightmare. The only way for Israel to defeat Hamas and for the world to defeat Islamic terrorism is for Israel to start treating the Palestinians as human beings. Hamas only exists in inverse proportion to the humanity afforded to the Palestinians by the Israeli's and the West. All of your nonsense posting amounts to one thing - Israel Bad. You do not have anything on offer other than that. Nada. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JBChiangRai Posted October 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 29, 2023 Some of you don’t help the Israeli cause by posting vitriol and personal attacks. You should keep them to reasoned arguments instead of provocations. Just because someone doesn’t agree with you doesn’t mean they are antisemitic or Hamas supporters. One poster here is mostly the voice of reason and has persuaded me that what Israel is doing now is probably the best policy, others of you just prevent that from happening to other members. You don’t have to defend “everything“ Israel is doing, it just weakens your argument, likewise you don’t have to criticise everything Israel is doing it does the same. Whilst I believe the IDF in what they say about minimising civilian casualties, I don’t believe that message has reached individual Israeli soldiers who have a history of killing innocent Palestinian bystanders, & reporters usually intentionally and without any kind of consequence. The BBC’s Jeremy Bowen said yesterday that in talking to individual captains in the Israeli army the impression he got was they wanted “payback” to use his own words. How the army behaves during this process is likely to affect world opinion, it’s naive to think reporting on what happens won’t get out. I hope the army chiefs can reign in the individuals wishing for revenge. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the army chiefs can reign in the individuals wishing for revenge. Be that as it may, I think it's quite obvious who are the trolls on this topic, and (generally) which 'side' they 'support'. In a sense, your comments regarding posters echo a popular sentiment on current events comments - that Israel should be better than that etc. But i do agree with most of what you posted. As for the 'revenge' angle - I would be surprised if it wasn't present on troops level. Many are sure to know people who were murdered on 7/10, friends of friends and so on. So for many it's personal, which makes it more emotional and maybe harder to control. On policy making level, though - I don't think it's quite that. If one considers this an issue, then a good thing that most Gazan civilians evacuated - that way such sentiments are more likely to be taken out on Hamas men - and with that, zero issues. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
