[QUOTE=Crossnerd]Edit: RULES FOR THIS THREAD
Posting guidelines for Politics and Soci...
These are our baselines. We're not reinventing the wheel here. If you aren't sure if something is acceptable to post, its better to ask first. If you think someone is posting something that violates the above guidelines, please report it or PM me rather than responding in kind.
To reiterate some of the points:
1. No personal attacks. This is a broad instruction, but, in general, we want to focus on attacking an argument rather than the poster making it. It is fine to say a post is antisemitic; it is not okay to call someone an antisemite over and over. If you believe someone is making antisemitic posts, report them or PM me. The same goes for calling people "baby killers" and "genocide lovers". You are allowed to argue that an action supports genocide or that the consequences of certain policies results in the death of children, but we are no longer going to be speaking to one another's intentions. It is not productive to the conversation and doesn't further any debate.
2. Racist posts and other bigoted statements that target a particular group or individuals of such groups with derogatory comments are not allowed. This should not need further explanation.
3. Graphic Images need to be in spoilers with a trigger warning.
4. Wishing Harm on other posters will result in an immediate timeout.
5. Genocidal statements such as "Kill 'em all" etc, are no longer permissible in the thread.
If anyone has any questions about the above, please PM me. I don't want a discussion about the rules to derail the content of this thread. If anything needs clarifying, I will do that in this thread.

Worth doing, I think. You can't let the Israeli right just keep getting madder and madder in a vacuum and imagining themselves biblical overlords -- they've lately taken to citing the Jews' destruction of the Amalekites, which is not a good sign. The difficult aspect is that there's no worthwhile Palestinian leadership and certainly no Palestinian Mandela in whom faith can be placed (not that the ANC's been up to much since Mandela left the scene). But international recognition of Palestine may budge things a bit.
Wouldn't disagree with that at all.
Then Palestine must also be a nation of deplorables for supporting Hamas and its never ending attacks on Israel.
Dunyain, please take a timeout from this thread as well until 12:00 AM Eastern Time. Thank you.
They haven’t had the luxury of regular elections, so that’s purely speculation on your part.
And Putin obviously loves Iran
This is why people like jalftezi “condemn” Hamas. It’s so they can draw a false equivalency and then cast Israelis in a nasty light.
You have to be incredibly naive to believe otherwise.
A majority of Gazan population has grown up under Hamas propaganda.
If you believe in your own drivel that Israel has gone out of its way to repress Gazans, then you have even more reasons to believe a majority of Gazans are aligned with Hamas' rhetoric and actions.
shithole client-state
It looks bad but the Arabs brought this upon themselves.
by ..... attempting to exist within israel?
By not taking the deal back in 48. Then they attacked and created the Nabka. They made it clear they wanted to kill all Jews. It's kind of tough to trust people like this. They set in motion all the bad things that have happened to them. They created the settlers. They created their current living conditions. They ****ed around and found out.
I'm not of the opinion that Palestinians are a bunch of innocent Martin Luther Kings peaceniks.
about time
Boy I'm not looking forward to finding out how high America is on the leaderboard.
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/6/6/...
An inertial measurement unit from the missile, used to aid with precision targeting, was manufactured by Honeywell, an American conglomerate that specialises in the design and delivery of sensors and guidance devices that are used in a variety of military weapons.
Al Jazeera’s Sanad verification unit discovered that one of the fragments found in Nuseirat bore the manufacturer and category number HG1930BA06, tracing it back to Honeywell. HG1930 refers to the specific sensor manufactured by the company.
You realize that Israel acknowledged the attack on the "school," which they claim was used as a base for PIJ and Hamas militants and said he strike was precise and only militants were killed. And have started providing names. And Al Jazeera isn't acknowledging this, and is just quickly moving on to the next "breaking news atrocity" that will also probably be proven fake in a day or 2.
So basically Al Jazeera is running the US right wing media playbook, where they just go from fake story to fake story, and never even acknowledge when the story is proven fake. And neither does their intended audience.
Meanwhile Janjaweed militias in Sudan are literally wiping out entire villages. A village of 100 massacred yesterday.
And the progressive left couldn't care less, but are outraged US parts were used by Israel to take out Hamas and PIJ Jihadis operating out of a "school."
Really shows the progressive left has its moral prerogatives in order.
I don't have it handy, but I think there have been polls showing that have a lot of support.
Not all Israelis voted for Netanyahu, but you still seem to think they're all deplorables.
I guess I can say that anyone who was old enough to vote for Hamas at the last election are deplorables.
This is why uber-nationalists like gs never condemn Israel. They think that every criticism of the Israeli government is a criticism of them, personally.
That's right, most of them anyway. I'm just going by what an Israeli friend (who's in Tel Aviv now) told me on another forum.
I'd love to see you attempt to support this argument.
looks like the brave guys and girls of the IDF got a hamas leader yesterday, and this is just one day after eliminating a large portion of the thirty or so rapist terrorists who were hanging out at a UN facility (surprise!)
bad times for the supporters of terrorists itt
Interested to hear what the Israel apologists in this thread think of Israel using illegal white phosphorous munitions on civilian populations.
standard anti-semitic lie which can be found on the first page of stormfront
