If a kid got expelled from 100 schools, we would think something must be wrong with the kid


yikes, that's a nasty thing to say, no?


I don't think so. I wouldn't want that same kid in a school with my child.

Yes Israel. Without Israel the Middle East would be peaceful. Too bad terrorists like Israel continue to go unpunished. The only reason Israel did not invade Egypt was because Turkey said they would come in on the side of Egypt. Right now Israel is violation of the Egypt Israeli peace treaty with the occupation of the Philadelphia corridor.

Hopefully the Syrian with Russian will aid the Lebanese against the invading Israelis.


This is so sad. Why can’t Israel be happy with what they have? They have a beautiful country and still want more. They should accept a two state solution and Palestinian politicos that support that (Fatah/West Bank) instead of the ones that want a one state solution (Hamas).

Now, they covet Lebanon and the extremist settlers who reside in the West Bank say they need Lebanon. Wtf? Manifest destiny is not going to work for them. Israel is not the U.S., and Muslims are not Native Americans with natural tribal and linguistic divisions. Sunnis and Shias pray together in Lebanon. Christians and Muslims have lived for centuries and both speak Arabic. They both eat the same foods and listen to the same music and say the same name for God (Allah). Allah is Arabic for God and said by Arab Christians.

Israel takes advantage of the U.S. including our presidents complete lack of knowledge about the region. In 2003, the Us’s first strike was on an Iraqi church. Pres Bush famously didn’t know what the difference between Sunni and Shia.

It’s like someone dividing the US between Catholic whites and Protestant whites. It’s ridiculous. If Christians spoke a different language, I can understand how ethnic distinction and divisions could be made but in the end, Lebanon in particular will be a hard country to crack with civil war. Israel will try with all their might but if it failed with Palestinians and Syrians, it will fail
There as well. Israel may have their own civil war in the next 5 years. They should be more concerned about what. Netanyahu has torn the country apart


You need to accept Israelis never wanted peace, not since THEY assassinated Rabin. And that wasn't some anomaly - that's most of the country's mindset.

America allowed Israel to become this. People keep making excuses for Israelis by saying it's only Bibi. No, it's the overwhelming majority. Those protests you saw a while back were about THEM being free. They're fine with being violent occupiers and land thieves. Israel is destroying itself and as an American of Palestinian descent who know first hand how repugnant they behave, it's karma as far as I'm concerned.


This is such crap. Jews have only wanted peace - they’ve been under constant attack for centuries by Islamist invaders.

Israel - in its modern form - is no exception. Israel wanted a two-state solution. Hamas / PLO did not - they wanted literal eradication of all Jews, including those in Israel. And, of course, Israel gone even though it’s Jewish indigenous land (that Islamists stole).

Israel has the right to defend itself.


Can you blame them for not wanting to give up land just because Truman and the United Nations told them they must?


Then they should go complain to the UN. Not murder civilians in their beds.


US will simply veto. The pro-Israel group has been playing the long political game for quite some time...

Why didn’t Israel defend itself against Germany?

Israel does not desire peace. It desires dominance. Israel does not want a two state solution. It wants regional collapse

Resistance to Israeli Occupation: Hezbollah was initially formed to resist the Israeli occupation of southern Lebanon, which began in 1982 during the Lebanese Civil War. The group's primary objective was the liberation of Lebanese territory from Israeli control, which it claims it achieved in 2000 when Israeli forces withdrew from most of southern Lebanon. Hezbollah continues to view opposition to Israel as one of its core missions, particularly in relation to disputed areas like the Shebaa Farms.

Support for Palestinian Liberation: Hezbollah is committed to the broader goal of ending Israeli control over Palestinian territories and supports the Palestinian cause. It advocates for the destruction of the State of Israel and the establishment of an Islamic state in all of historic Palestine.

Defense of Lebanon: Hezbollah portrays itself as a defender of Lebanon from foreign aggression, particularly from Israel. It justifies maintaining a paramilitary wing by arguing that the Lebanese state and army alone cannot protect the country from Israeli threats.

Establishment of an Islamic State: In its original 1985 manifesto, Hezbollah expressed the goal of creating an Islamic government in Lebanon based on the model of Iran's Islamic Republic. However, this goal has been downplayed over the years, and Hezbollah now claims to respect Lebanon's multi-confessional nature, emphasizing political pluralism instead of insisting on an Islamic state.

Opposition to Western Influence: Hezbollah positions itself as a force against U.S. and Western influence in the Middle East. The group opposes what it perceives as American and Western hegemony in the region and aligns itself with Iran’s anti-Western stance, particularly in its opposition to U.S. policies and military interventions.

Support for Iran's Ideology: Hezbollah has strong ties to Iran, both financially and ideologically. It adheres to the principles of Wilayat al-Faqih, or the Guardianship of the Islamic Jurist, a concept developed by Iran's Ayatollah Khomeini, which advocates for the rule of a qualified Islamic jurist in the governance of a state. Hezbollah views Iran's Supreme Leader as its spiritual leader and continues to support Iran's regional policies.

Political Role in Lebanon: Over the years, Hezbollah has become an integral part of Lebanon's political system. It participates in elections, holds seats in the Lebanese parliament, and serves as part of governing coalitions. Hezbollah's stated political goal is to protect Lebanon’s sovereignty, security, and interests while ensuring the defense of the Shiite community, which is a significant political and social base for the group.



Given the recent emergence of, yet another, “Islamic State” in Afghanistan, I believe the world (and particularly the women of the world) have had quite enough of these “Islamic states,” espoused by Hezbollah in the paragraph above.

Israel is doing the world a favor by dismantling the designated terrorist organizations of Hezbollah and Hamas.

Carry on.


Yes Israel only wants women to be oppressed in the Jewish state not the Islamic state.


Continue blathering on with your nonsense about Israel and women’s rights, meanwhile, in the real world:

Cats have more freedom than Afghan women under Islamic Taliban rule:

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cr54d3qd5r7o


And yet, you support terrorists who are fighting for another Islamic state?!?!? OMG.


oh and you know wo is teh mother if the Taliban? the good old united staes of america who funded crazy a$$ warlords in afghanistan when the USSR invaded and told them teh soviets are your enemies b/c they are atheist. id take those athiests over crazy religious fundies of any stripe. The united states funnleled massive amounst of money and arms to Pakistan and afghanistan to fight the Soviets b/c we would rather that afghani women live with fewer rights than cats under beardo wierdo who are our allies (pakistan is a very important US ally and women get burned by acid and gang raped there in the northern afghanistan bordering states, im from there so shut up with a rebuttal) Paistan has also suffered from becoming more and more religious b/c teh USA gives money to the religious hardliner parties and threatens the army that if a liberal governemnt comes into power the alliance with its money and arms will end.

BS that jewsih women have rights within judaism, jewish women women have rights- in congreagatuions that have mostly abandoned the judiams practiced by teh Israeli government. Also there are American Jewish women who live in the United states who cant get divorced even in american courts b/c their children will be taken from them. All of these religions are oppressive and make people miserable.

The history of the region has been contested forever. To me the important thing is to end conflicts while minimizing the loss of human life. I want no association with any religion that guides me otherwise.

Right now, the choice to minimize the loss of human life is in Israel's hands and they are still punching.

Yes, those that they are battering may not have liked them before but they certainly hate them now. That makes tragic events like 9/11 and 10/7 more likely to occur again.

Someone above wrote "Jews have only wanted peace". I believe that is true, but it is peace on their terms. It leaves out seeing the harm the formation of Israel and subsequent actions have caused the Palestinian (and Lebanese) people and helping identify a plan for healing. That harm impose by Israel was (and is) real and felt and until Israel acknowledges this, they are never going to get the peace they want because hurt people get angry. And angry people do terrible things.

Iran has no historic tie or claim to Israel but sure loves to act like they do.


Ironically Iran, ie: Persia, has the same level of ancient history claim. 6th century BC.

Regardless the ancient history claims are absurd and if we go down that road then Egypt has the strongest and oldest claim.

Who's even to say it even was the Arabs' land? Prior to the creation of Israel it had been under British control, a result of capturing it from the Ottoman Turks in WWI. And prior to that, it had been under Ottoman Turk rule for hundreds of years. The Arabs living in Palestine hadn't had any meaningful rule or self-governance in Palestine for hundreds of years, other than at local government level. And most of the land was owned by landlords in Turkey, Syria, Egypt and so on. By the time of the formation of Israel, Jews had already been buying a non-trivial amount of land in Palestine from those landowners going back several decades prior.

This is so sad. Why can’t Israel be happy with what they have? They have a beautiful country and still want more. They should accept a two state solution and Palestinian politicos that support that (Fatah/West Bank) instead of the ones that want a one state solution (Hamas).

Now, they covet Lebanon and the extremist settlers who reside in the West Bank say they need Lebanon. Wtf? Manifest destiny is not going to work for them. Israel is not the U.S., and Muslims are not Native Americans with natural tribal and linguistic divisions. Sunnis and Shias pray together in Lebanon. Christians and Muslims have lived for centuries and both speak Arabic. They both eat the same foods and listen to the same music and say the same name for God (Allah). Allah is Arabic for God and said by Arab Christians.

Israel takes advantage of the U.S. including our presidents complete lack of knowledge about the region. In 2003, the Us’s first strike was on an Iraqi church. Pres Bush famously didn’t know what the difference between Sunni and Shia.

It’s like someone dividing the US between Catholic whites and Protestant whites. It’s ridiculous. If Christians spoke a different language, I can understand how ethnic distinction and divisions could be made but in the end, Lebanon in particular will be a hard country to crack with civil war. Israel will try with all their might but if it failed with Palestinians and Syrians, it will fail
There as well. Israel may have their own civil war in the next 5 years. They should be more concerned about what. Netanyahu has torn the country apart


You need to accept Israelis never wanted peace, not since THEY assassinated Rabin. And that wasn't some anomaly - that's most of the country's mindset.

America allowed Israel to become this. People keep making excuses for Israelis by saying it's only Bibi. No, it's the overwhelming majority. Those protests you saw a while back were about THEM being free. They're fine with being violent occupiers and land thieves. Israel is destroying itself and as an American of Palestinian descent who know first hand how repugnant they behave, it's karma as far as I'm concerned.


This is such crap. Jews have only wanted peace - they’ve been under constant attack for centuries by Islamist invaders.

Israel - in its modern form - is no exception. Israel wanted a two-state solution. Hamas / PLO did not - they wanted literal eradication of all Jews, including those in Israel. And, of course, Israel gone even though it’s Jewish indigenous land (that Islamists stole).

Israel has the right to defend itself.


Can you blame them for not wanting to give up land just because Truman and the United Nations told them they must?

I’m gonna refer to Netanyahu as Mileikowsky from now on, just to piss people off. No fake middle easterners thank you


They only ended up in Poland because they were chased out of every other land. Hate to break it to you but the Jewish diaspora really was a thing. Well documented in history. Historically, Israel and Gaza were known as JUDEA, land of the Jews. Read some damn history, will ya?


+1 Jews and up in Europe because they were taken into slavery by Romans or were fleeing Islamic invaders. The Middle East is their native land. Islamists are the colonialists and invaders. Also Jews never left that area but those who returned after the Holocaust are nevertheless linked to that region.

People taking Hamas talking points off of Tik Tok and have not a clue about history.


By this logic, certain parts of Africa are ALL people's native land... Human life originated there. Every other group is the result of the diaspora of all people from that region... If one believes in science and fossil records, then there's not arguing this claim. I would also have a right to go back to the Africa and kick someone whose family has lived there for centuries because my ancestors somehow got to Europe sometime in the last 300,000 or so thousand years. I truly don't understand this argument about rightful land...

It’s disgusting that the trouble makers want to foment sectarianism once more in the Levant. It failed in Palestine and it failed in Iraq and it failed in Syria. Arabs know who the troublemakers are


Yes Israel. Without Israel the Middle East would be peaceful. Too bad terrorists like Israel continue to go unpunished. The only reason Israel did not invade Egypt was because Turkey said they would come in on the side of Egypt. Right now Israel is violation of the Egypt Israeli peace treaty with the occupation of the Philadelphia corridor.
