Political Discussion
Keep lying. Beheaded babies was debunked. But ok with the propaganda. Meanwhile, Israeli's have been slaughtering Palestinians since 47. Raping women and burning villages. If Israelis wouldn't have burned so many people, maybe there'd have been peace? But they landed in Palestine with genocidal intent. |
This gets tiring. The Stern Gang, aka Lehi, slaughtered Palestinians on multiple occassions in the 20's and 30's, tried to ally with Hitler (crazy huh), assasinated multiple British and UN officials, fired the first shots in 1948, and openly called themselves terrorists. Today they are honored and respected in Israel. One of them even became Prime Minister, Yitzhak Shamir. There are no clean hands in the history of this region. The only way out of the cycle of extremist fueled hatred, destruction and retribution can only be ended by rejecting ALL the bad actors, both on your side and the other, accepting a share of the blame and acknowledging the vicious cycle exists. |
None of the "pro-Palestinian" rallies are "pro-peace." They're pro-Hamas and pro-murdering Jews. |
Because. They. Are. War. Criminals. And. Murderers. It must be something in the water. What do you guys drink in Israel? You punch puppies in the morning? JFC. |
I don't doubt that. However, PP said I was spreading falsehood and the signs were fake propaganda, which is not true. Please don't paint all pro-Palestinian protestors as pro-Hamas or terrorism supporters. I saw many of these statements on the thread about the other DC rally last week. |
Of course not. Can you tell the difference between terrorism and resistance? That’s going to be critical to understand for Israel’s own survival. People have a limited right of resistance. Does it include terrorism? No. Does it include militants fighting soldiers, consumers organizing boycotts, concerned citizens lobbying governments? You bet. The hyperbole suggests that you’re being led by trauma instead of by reason. That’s horrible for you, but it doesn’t excuse calling all Palestinians terrorists. |
Humanitarian standards also include that Israelis aren’t slaughtered and kidnapped by terrorists. The today was solidarity with Israelis at a time that many people died - horrifically - despite them being progressive and left leaning. They were murdered only because they were Israeli. Many Palestinians and their supporters were thrilled. That’s not humanitarian by any standard. And many people didn’t attend todays rally as it was in the middle of the work week and there was also fear of violence given threats Jews have received over the last few weeks. |
Not an Israeli, and not Jewish. But I'm sick and tired of pro-Hamas supporters violently protesting in placed like DC and on college campuses. I'm sick and tired of empty, vacuous progressives like you spouting propaganda on behalf of Hamas, who sees people like you as nothing more than useful idiots. I support the IDF through the bitter end of what needs to be done to defeat Hamas. |
I’m a Jewish American. I appreciate your support and sympathy for our murdered and kidnapped citizens, some of whom weren’t Jewish. But I do not want to support the IDF to the bitter end. I want to use the IDF where needed and then work harder to find a nonbitter end. The current Israeli government and the IDF actions against Gazan civilians are sickening and poses a grave danger to Jewish Israelis, including my in-laws and other family. |
That is because you are a racist who does not see Palestinians as human. Only monsters can support what Israel is doing to an entire population in both Gaza and WB. And you support it becuase they are Muslims and Arabs and you view them as inferior. So please don't talk to me about being vacuous when I bet you have yet to follow one Palestinian journalist on the ground documenting what has been happening to his/her people. With all due respect, you and your disdain for others can shove it. |
Beheaded babies was not debunked. The atrocities were all captured on video. The whole raping Palestinian women claim is laughable. In fact, there was a whole Report written on how IDF soldiers must be racist because they didn’t touch palestianian women. On the other hand you turn a blind eye to mass tape caught on Hamas video. |
When you cannot accept the atrocities that happened on October 7 and just dismissed them as debunked you lose any moral authority to talk about other carnage. |
Meanwhile, a Palestinian family was shot in their homes leaving a dead 6 year old child. We've had multiple attacks on Muslims in the past weeks that, quite honestly, have been the accepted norm since 9/11. All we're asking is that Israel stop killing Palestinians. They have not stopped once in 75 years. They have rounded up nearly 200 in West Bank just this month and murdered them despite having zero affiliation with Hamas. This is literal apartheid and terror. But the constant gas-lighting from the pro-israel crowd will never allow us to talk about the injustices inflicted upon them. So the rage continues. Because only one side is portrayed as the perpetual victim...with a $300B US trust fund. |
Why do you think many Palestinians were thrilled? I’m Palestinian-American and was greatly disturbed by that too. I do have some insight into the psychology, though I can’t explain away or rationalize their reaction of course. I am curious what you think is causing that reaction. |
75 years of apartheid is now known as "other carnage". this is the problem. You guys have NEVER once recognized the injustice done to the Palestinian people - and are then flabbergasted as to why they are angry. Can you accept the atrocities of the Nakba - and every year thereafter? I just don't understand how black your hearts must be to deny the existence of an entire people. |
