Israel/Hamas PB Tribal Fight

What was the alternative? Do nothing? The Palestinian Authority in the West Bank is now viewed with contempt, seen as sellouts, appeasers, collaborators etc. Fatah once had authority as a resistance group against Israel.

Israel's supporters are determined to focus on Hamas, to distract from what Israel does to the Palestinian population.
So let me ask you this...Are you justifying Hamas's actions? Beheading women and children? Killing thousand of civilians?
 
It's easy to forget that in 1947 (within some people's lifetime) Palestine was an entire country. The population was living in cities, towns and villages with farms and industries in peace. The British rulers were devastated after WW2 and had no ability to continue their commitment in the region. The United Nations dominated by the US decided that they wanted to establish a homeland for the Jewish peoples so instead of creating it in Germany where the holocaust had been created, put it in Palestine.

The concept of the 'right of a nation to exist' was invented for Israel and has never been applied to anywhere else.

The religion-based government promptly cleared out all those pesky Muslims living in the territory, concentrating them in designated areas. Thus they became refugees in camps within their own country.

The Jewish occupiers of the land have ever since moved the border further and further outwards until now there are tiny enclaves within the area known as the 'West Bank' (of the River Jordan) and an area called the Gaza Strip. This has 2.6 million people sheltering there, people who mostly regard villages hundreds of miles away as their home. There is no agriculture to speak of there, no industry, no access to fuel, food or water but what Israel allows through military checkpoints.

The Jews learned the lessons well of WW2.
 
Palestine has NEVER been a country, only a province or a protectorate of some sort or another.
Until the war to end all wars, they were part of the Ottoman Empire.
History doesn't start where we want it to.
2,000 years or so ago, there was
an Israel. No Palestine though.
No Masada Martyrs.

The funny (?) thing is that before the start of WW2 the Jews were treated so badly by Russia that many escaped to Germany. The concentration camps were built as prisons / labor camps, it wasn't until around 1941 that extermination camps such as Treblinka and Sobibor were established. The Germans didn't go around bayonetting or eating babies as was alleged prior to that. It was a propaganda poster without any actual foundation.
Ah ok so shooting, gassing, and doing medical experiments on babies is ok because it wasn’t eating them. Got it.
 
Let's start with that. Israel did that all on their own huh? In case you haven't noticed NO ONE wants them. Not Lebanon, not Jordan, not the Saudi's, not the Egyptian's, NO ONE. So yes, in a very real sense they are in an open air prison of their own device.

You then go one to speak of "atrocities' committed against them by the Israeli's while completely ignoring the atrocities they've committed against every nation that's hosted them and even against each other.

If you choose to behave like an animal you can rest assured that you're going to be treated as an animal. You would think that after 70 years they'd realize that for every action they take they're going to be the subject of a reaction. Their leadership reached their positions based on violence and are not going to relinquish those positions because those positions come with money and power.

By the way, even the Iranians consider them to be animals, just animals that are useful for the Iranians purposes..........for now.
You’d think after this long, they’d stop relying on Israel for their basic needs and demand their their elected officials provide them. Huh!
 
I mean, arguing that ‘I haven’t seen behaved babies’ or ‘I haven’t SEEN the gang rapes’ (even though those were recorded) and the loudest ‘but’ ever.
Derp.
When the poster was produced it was a lie, a piece of propaganda. Events followed that made the propaganda look mild, but that was in the future.
 
The current Israeli mood could best be analogized for Americans to that in the US post-9/11. Many think they're up against Holocaust 2.0, they're in the process of fighting it out with terrorists while they bury their dead. Calls for restraint and protestations about the finer points of international law are going to fall on deaf ears.Agree with it or not, that's where they are and we should prepare ourselves for the implications of that mindset as the IDF gears up to invade Gaza. Think of 911 or Pearl Harbor, but on a much much larger scale.

The equivalent for us would be 50k dead, raped, tortured and burned alive Americans in one morning and the bad guys came from New Jersey. Guess how we'd react to that.
No. Most people didn’t blame people just going to work for 9/11. Your friends weren’t silent about 9/11. This isn’t 9/11. Also the Germans admitted to hating Jews. I wish people would stop pretending this is about Israel. Hamas has a mission statement and goals to eradicate Jews. When you don’t denounce Hamas, the elected government of the Palestinians in Gaza, you’re saying the quiet part loud. Just admit it.
 
Part of the problem there is the silly insistence that past claims or possession still have meaning today.

That’s not how it works at the nation-state level. That’s never been how it works at that level. There is no deed or title. Possession, “now” is 10/10ths of the law.

If you can take it, and keep it, it is rightfully yours - until the next group can take it from you.

For now, Israel has it and can keep it. That doesn’t mean others won’t try to take it. No nation has a “right to exist.” They have the ability to exist, or they cease to exist.
1) the same people who make the first claim are basically the same people who start every zoom meeting with a 10 min land acknowledgment.

2) don’t start wars (ie the YK war) and then get annoyed when the other side wins.
 
I suppose you'd say that Nelson Mandela was a terrorist, too? Yes? That's what the apartheid regime in South Africa said, and all their "allies" in first world governments. Some even called for Mandela to be hanged. They changed their tune in the 1990s, suddenly.

Mandela? He was and they should have. The apartheid regime in South Africa ran South Africa fairly well. Now? South Africa is almost a basket case and fast heading to catch up on Zimbabwe. Kleptocratic government has devastated the economy. The only thing that's still keeping them floating is a still-large white population but that won't hold them up forever given the scale of the ANC's theft and corruption.

What's going to happen in the end is the economy will tank completely and China will step in, as they are all over Africa, and take over the industries and mines they want, as they are elsewhere, and strip African resources for the benefit of China. The locals will be even worse off, because the Chinese are not subtle about what they want, altho they couch it in pretty language. Mandela was just the starting point, and yeah, Mandela WAS a terrorist. The real problem was the old South African government just wasn't ruthless or subtle enough and didn't think all the issues through early enough.

Chloe, this simply isn't true. I am not religious and have no patience with religious fundamentalism and intolerance of any kind, but I know Muslims in the US and they are nothing like the way you describe them. They are educated and professionals and as American as anyone else. You cannot paint an entire group of people with such a broad brush. The Muslims I personally know are every bit as "nice" as anyone else I know.

Stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason, Simon. Yes, there are some very nice moderate Muslims who want to live and let live, and we all likely know some, but where are they now? All I see is bloodthirsty PLA supporters out in the streets screaming for gas chambers and for Jews to die and for Israel to be annihilated. I'm afraid I haven't seen any moderate Muslims out there supporting Israel's right to exist, decrying the slaughter of women and babies by Hamas, and generally advocating for civilization in general. Moderate Muslims exists while they live amongst us, and while Muslims are a minority. As soon as Muslims become a majority, or form large enclaves, such as in Dearborn, that moderation disappears, and is subsumed by the views of the extremists. The moderates keep quiet and disappear. Western civilization simply cannot co-exist with the barbarians who hold our entire culture and ethos as anathema.

The optimal and most peaceful solution is we simply strip all Muslims of US citizenship and deport them to their countries of origin. That would be the optimal solution. The suboptimal solution is that, as with Lebanon and as we are starting to see in the UK and France and Sweden (with it's 60 odd No-Go zones where the police no longer have any control), where there are large and fast-growing Muslim minorities, we descend into civil conflict. As with Lebanon, I don't see a good outcome for these countries. This is also the direction unrestrained immigration, and unstrained illegal immigration which has soared under Biden, is pushing us. We're fast approaching a breaking point, and when it happens things will break fast.

Israel and Palestine (and Lebanon) is just a foretaste of things to come. I take quite a pessimistic view here, largely because I don't believe in the innate goodness of man. I'm rather more Hobbesian in my outlook, and I see the disintegration of law and order, and societal breakdown in places like California and New York and Seattle and Portland, and the crime-ridden cities like Chicago, Atlanta, New Orleans and others as the way things are going to go. Throw in a recidivist Muslim minority and its a recipe for disaster. We're losing all social cohesion as a country, and really, it's deliberately being inflicted on us with malice aforethought. What's happening now in Israel and Palestine is simply a little taste of what's coming. The Pax Americana has been finished off by Biden and the Democrats, we are no longer economically powerful enough to remain the world's policeman, the barbarians are at the gates, or inside the gates in many cases, and unless a miracle happens, Rome will fall and a new dark age will descend.

Of course, I may be wrong. Maybe Trump will be reelected and maybe the GOP will grow some balls and rollback all the destructive policies of the Biden and Obama era, but even then I don't see them going anywhere near far enough. The GOP Rino's stabbed Trump in the back every chance they got, and while they're being slowly reduced, they're still going to try and stop any major reforms, do what Trump can. That is, if he's not cheated out of a victory a second time, and why wouldn't he be? The Democrats have reduced our elections to a farce in many states, and its a winning strategy for them. They really want to establish a left-wing dictatorship. They certainly don't actually believe in democracy or the rule of law. Unfortunately, many of the GOP live in a fantasy world where they don't recognize reality when it slaps them in the face.

Anyhow, with regard to Muslims, recognizing reality and deporting them, along with the 50,000,000 illegals, is the optimal solution. The suboptimal solution is that eventually it goes kinetic, a la Lebanon, or Israel-Hamas. That's the reality, because with West and Muslims cannot co-exist within the same society. What's going on in Israel with Hamas is a simple reflection of that reality. There is no possibility of peaceful co-existence within the same country - the extremists will always see to that, and we are starting to see that here, in the UK, and in France, as well as in other countries. Simple reality.

We can deal with it now, which we won't because we don't have politicians who can face up to reality, or we can deal with it later and rather more finally, which is likely what's going to happen eventually. And when I say deal with it eventually, take a look at Gaza and remember Lebanon, and think about that happening around you, because that's where it will go.
 
No. Most people didn’t blame people just going to work for 9/11. Your friends weren’t silent about 9/11. This isn’t 9/11. Also the Germans admitted to hating Jews.

LOL. I don't think you're talking to me there.
 
That whole thing is ridiculous. They don’t have anywhere to go. Even before all of this most of them were well south of poverty.

Do you suppose they have vacation homes outside the city somewhere? Telling them to evacuate is Israel trying to inoculate itself against the civilian deaths, it knows it is going to cause.

Israel knows they aren’t going anywhere because they have nowhere to go. But it sounds awfully good, and it gives the people who are willing to parrot their narrative some thing to say.
Hamas started this.

Israel is going after Hamas.

Israel will target Hamas. Hamas will target everyone including their own.

Nothing sounds good in war.

Until it could be a money making scheme, Arabs and Israelis/Jews got along rather well. If you know Israelis (or, secular ones), you know they learn Arabic and do want peace. They don’t care about Palestinian statehood they just want the whole issue to stop and live their lives, so every time the Palestinians reject statehood, it’s Israel’s fault.
I have had Muslim friends check on me this week more than my very left wing ‘friends’. My son’s friend and dad hugged us and the dad and I shared a tearful moment. We don’t hate Muslims or Islam. Please don’t speak for us.
 
‘Palestinians don’t have anywhere to go’. Why? They have a government who should have emergency plans. They have TONS if allies right there. What is the disconnect.
And why are there more underground shelters for hostages and weapons than their own people?
Release the hostages and there likely won’t be a ground invasion. Israeli military DOES NOT want to go into Gaza. Or, leadership might but it’s never leadership at risk.
 
Palestine has NEVER been a country, only a province or a protectorate of some sort or another.
Until the war to end all wars, they were part of the Ottoman Empire.
History doesn't start where we want it to.

Your post goes beyond the war into your own bigoted mind. There is always opportunity for peace. The PLA hates Hamas.

ChioeTzang, excellent post, very excellent..... the only thing I would add is when China has a firm grip on Africa, one or both things will happen. The Chinese government will either slaughter the African population or enslave it...
 
A week since the Hammas attacks and Isreal's ground force still hasn't invaded Gaza?? I'm surprise that there isn't news of IDF going in especially after yesterday's 24 hour warning to evacuate northern Gaza?!?!

A situation such as this take planning, lots of planning. For example hamas may be or already set traps, mines and God knows what else.... House to house fighting is fucking brutal beyond imagination.....
