Israel vs Palestinians

Ben-Gvir is a loon. But missing from the outrage reporting are all the ministers and generals that told Beb-Gvir to get f***ed.

The Columbia students should kidnap some Columbia University staff and administrators. That will help.

They did hold one facilities worker

So he's asking if his military can commit war crimes against the group that committed and continues to commit war crimes against them?

I don't like what happening any more than you do but let's take a step back and look at the entire situation instead of narrowly focusing our outrage.

It seems a lot of people just want to forget or ignore what happened on October 7th.

That was a 9/11 event to Israel. I'd argue even worse considering some of acts of violence that was carried out that day.

So if they were all wearing white hoods would you be as calm about it?

Yes

It's difficult to make jokes when the absurd is actually occurring.

Medhi Hasan is also an MSNBC reporting loon.

LOL.

I can't gtfo because no one else will tolerate me. Yall are stuck with me. Sorries.

ETA: I struggled with the word 'grammar' in the joke because the protesters choosing another word in their chant isn't a choice related to grammar. But I couldn't think of an alternate which worked. I hope everyone will overlook my catachresis.

If you keep using words that 90% of us has to Google then you will really be asked to leave. I don't know if 90% is accurate or not, but in this thread numbers seem to be manufactured so I'm just doing my part.

How is he a loon? Not wanting to kill people?

If you’re at the point of justifying the things Ben Gvir says then you’ve taken way too many steps back

Who's justifying what he says? Seems like your ignoring the broader point, sound strategy in this instance.

It's wrong, no matter who's doing it.

You said the protestors at Columbia are rich white kids. I said that’s oversimplifying and inaccurate because it is. Columbia has a good number of Black, brown, Muslim and Palestinian students, many of whom are participating in these protests among others. No need to pretend it’s just white kids

Those protesting hate Israel and God.

Those protesting hate Israel and God.

Seriously?

 

[UTFanForLife]

To be fair, it is California police, they let almost anything go over there nowadays.

For a few minutes from what I read.... But initial reporting is sometimes wrong,

 

[dalton_vol]

Seriously?

Yeah, why has Israel been hated throughout time by the world? A tiny nation, as big as Delaware or Rhode Island, yet most nations hate them. Why do pagan colleges hate Israel and jews? Israel is proof that God is real. No other group of people has gone through what Israel and the Jewish people have gone through for centuries.

Ok then.

This display of hate, anger, and fear from both sides on college campuses should iterate how herculean the task is to bring peace to the region. Here's why: if college students in America who have a pretty good life, who don't live over there under constant stress of attacks from IDF or Hamas, and who (should) have freedom of speech to voice unpopular views cannot devolve into attacking each other, then the deck is incredibly stacked against the people living in the middle east.
The dynamic goes much deeper than simple 'security', or 'live and let live', or confining different people to protected lands. It's a quagmire of near-unsolvable issues. Unfortunately, all of us will go to our graves without any long term improvement in the middle east. The best we can hope for is America will get our nose out of their fight.

 

[KB5252]

This is exactly why you shouldn't allow protests after dark, just like we saw in 2020 after dark the protests devolve into chaos and often violence.

Those lamenting police doing nothing have to remember, they follow orders from higher up. The same frustrations when we watched city blocks burn and millions upon millions in damage we all have to pay for.

These are the frustrations and division that only make these situations worse. Address lawlessness and this doesn't devolve to this point

Ben-Gvir is a loon. But missing from the outrage reporting are all the ministers and generals that told Beb-Gvir to get f***ed.

Also missing is Gvir's resignation or firing.

 

[NashVol11]

Guess we’ll see

 

[whodeycin85]

For all the Pro Palestinian supporters, serious question. When 1 side of a wars commits "war crimes" and no one holds them responsible and actually defends their actions what is the other aide supposed to do? Do you believe in a fair fight?? Regardless of what you feel the rules are, they were set by Hamas, I don't blame IDF for following the rules Hamas and Palestine set.

I've seen enough of this guy to know he is a hack who attempts to come off as a journalist. If he states he is a leftist then we can move on instead of trying to deceive people that he provides unbiased info.

Similar to how Hamas wants Israeli occupiers to go???

And visa versa
