Did the holocaust happen in Gaza?Sure, terrorism will exist. But to that level? No.
I actually agree with you on the second part. But the people who cry most about ethnic cleansing typically wouldn’t have any concerns if it were Israelis being removed.
So is it a good thing if you have to remove people from their homes? Of course not. But war doesn’t always have good answers.
No one wants a two state solution any more except for naive westerners.You think Bibi wants a 2 state solution? Do you know why Hamas got the power they got?
I stand by what I said.That’s not always true. But I’m sure you’re smart enough to know that. Seems like more of a willful ignorance here.
Not just the beginning. All the way up until October 7th 2023. Hamas was propped up in the 80’s to be opposition to the 2 state solution because Palestinian authorities and PLO were pushing for it. acting like it was only a Palestinian rejection is laughableNo one wants a two state solution any more except for naive westerners.
And yes, Bibi helped prop up Hamas in the beginning. You can’t predict the future.
Are you aware that United States basically founded and funded the Mujuhidin in Afghanistan to oppose the Soviet Union? The same organization that gave us Osama bin Laden?
You make the deals you need to make at the time. You can’t ever foresee the future consequences .
I stand by what I said.
Are there “justified” wars? Yes. I still believe you have a moral obligation to not recklessly kill innocent civilians, when you fail to do so it’s hard to stand on any moral ground
Further more the way Israel has handled Gaza doesn’t just hurt Palestinian it also hurts Jews
Huh? They shouldn’t aim to stop the war? Israeli and Palestinian should continue to die?Israel is expected to:
Stop a war they didn’t start
Aid those that want to kill them
Make peace with those who don’t want it
Be the perfect victim and never fight back
Ya I think you and I beat that to death.I don’t think killing civilians and destroying Gaza has helped Israel’s side. I think Bibi has only hurt Jewish and Israeli’s. Of course people will always be anti-Semitic but it seems like it has only exacerbated the problems people have with us and the problems in the Middle East
Actually…I don’t disagree. Pride events have nothing to do with either country and I would find “queers for Israel” protests would be idiotic too
Israel does recognize gay marriage tho and you can do video calls from someone ordained and the courts will recognize it
That’s what I said. But I would still find “queers for israel” protests stupidActually…
Israel recognizes gay marriage. Has gay and transgender people working in government and has a church on the government website that they will accept that preforms gay marriage.
The difference between Israel and Gaza are night and day on gay rights
Israel has over 2 million Arab/ palestianians that are Israeli citizens. Not real good at cleansingDid the holocaust happen in Gaza?
I was being sarcastic on the 2nd part. I don’t base my moral compass off what other people’s concerns. If Israel lost this war and was ethnically cleansed it would be wrong. If Gaza gets ethnically cleansed it’s wrong. This shouldn’t be hard to agree to
With no real signs of endingYa I think you and I beat that to death.
Siege and leveling most things intact and screening people you allowed back in as you go town by town was the way to go.
The stick works better with carrot at the end of it.
For those who argue it’s a slow process….we’re 2 years in
