Stop arguing about things you can't affect, for starters. Specifically international things on the other side of the planet that we can't even remotely control or touch.Agreed, but what are we to do about it?
There would sure be a lot of 'clarity' and 'understanding' by any/every ASSHOLE country that thinks otherwise. You can't honestly say that the Pali's are on the 'good/Right' side of this equation.
And you can't honestly believe that this 'mindset' that they have....doesn't need to change/end.

This has to be one of the dumbest posts in history. You are talking, actually, about some of the richest states, resource wise, in the world, and Israel, circe 1949, was by far the poorest land in the region. So what you are really asking is how is it fair to the Muslims around that the Jews were able to farm what was desert, and to have a democratic system that encouraged prosperity, while their fucked up governments kept them poor and hungry. Yeah, that totally sounds like the fault of the Jews and the west. Basically, to you it isn't fair that the Jews didn't do the same shitty ass job that the people who never, ever wanted to be called Palestinians did on the same land.Nope, wouldn’t change much of anything, when you decide to have a rich western funded Jewish island in the middle of poor Muslim countries, this is what you’re going to get.

My complaint wasn't about fairness, it was about how ahistorical your post was. That they allegedly "decided" to put a rich country among poor countries, when actually they were, at the time, the poorest in the area, so poor nobody really ever wanted the land until they figured out farming techniques to make it work. Likewise, those other countries, by all rights, should be rich, because they have great natural resources. So you were just painting what is basically a completely ahistorical picture to justify some weird need you have to decide that, or all countries in the world, Israel just shouldn't be where they are.I’m not getting into what’s “fair” no one cares what’s fair
It’s like saying china isn’t a third world country when most of its people make the same as the average Mexican, looking at how rich and western most of Israel is compared to its neighbors, the thing speaks for itself.
Israel’s existence is a fight based on its location, always has been, always will be, fair, unfair, it is what it is

Right, so because they have prospered they should now pay the price for it? Cool, cool. Do you feel this way about any other countries? Think maybe they shouldn't exist, or shouldn't exist where they are, or does Israel have this special place in your heart?I posted the link to the numbers.
Being a “have” around “have nots” especially when they all share a different, and violent, religion than you, you got a uphill battle.
Doesn’t matter how you became a “have”, just like if there was a white family in a black ghetto, the son invents something, now they have stacks of cash and still live in said ghetto, similar result on a smaller scale.

Good argument.Que?
Things make much more sense if you lose the word “should” “fair” “good” “evil” etc from your vocabulary when it comes to such matters.
It is what it is
Already do all of these things.Protest at the homes of these policy makers.
Educate your own damn kids on their rights and things like jury nullification
Don’t think the government is the solution to your every problem
Eat better and exercise, stop eating sugar, using Walmart, Facebook, stop watching the news and go outside.
Stuff like that

Why would anyone give a shit? Look at what happens when you try to really press someone to demonstrate their experience on here. The lynch mob shows up and the insults start flying. The penalty for knowing what you're talking about and trying to share it is too steep for most. The older I get, the more I realize that no matter how flawed a life someone is leading... they don't want to hear suggestions on how to make it better from ANYONE.Most people don’t give a shit and are lazy.
That’s right. They have to want to help themselves or be open to things to begin with!Why would anyone give a shit?

Here's something I think some of you need to watch. It's interesting, to say the least.
Yeah, because it's age restricted and can only be watched on YT. I know it's lame. Check out the Empire Files channel or copy and paste into YT's search "Gaza Fights For Freedom (2019) | Full Documentary | Directed by Abby Martin".Linky no worky!
Here's something I think some of you need to watch. It's interesting, to say the least.
1hr 23minutes of divisive left wing propaganda.
The voiceover refers to the United States as an "Empire." Excuse me while I go vomit.
no pity whatsoever, fk them. I would napalm the whole fking areaDocumentaries like that show the truth of how horrible living conditions are for those in the Gaza strip and you do feel sorry for all the poor children who have to live through that and grow up in it.
HOWEVER the totally ignore the REST of the truth as to why such things exist. Which is that the "leaders" of the "Palestinians" don't want peace, don't want prosperity for "their people" and don't want their children to grow up happy and care free. Power, money, control and ideology are much more important.
Back with the Oslo Accords, the Palestinians were basically on the verge of having their own state. They had it all made to great fanfare internationally. The Israelis were even letting them openly bring in weapons for their fledgling security forces. All they had to do was stick to the agreement and not try to murder all the Jews and they would have been good to go & before long would have actually had a fully recognized state.
But did they do that... nope instead they used their freedom to build up a terror network, used their concrete to build tunnels and bunkers, used all the hundreds of millions of dollars of aid to buy weapons and pad private bank accounts.
Then they went back to trying to kill Jews.
All those hard militarized borders were put in place because the "Palestinians" were sneaking across and murdering / kidnapping Jews.
Now granted it was not all of them, only a few, BUT the population quietly acquiesced to allowing the terror networks to run their place and voting for Hamas as their leaders so such is life.
The Gaza strip needs to get closed down and the people there given another place to live that is NOT within Israel as that will not work.
If I was being some brutal global dictator, I'd probably suggest something along the lines of taking Sinai from the Egyptians and giving it to the "Palestinians" as the new "Palestine" and move the folks from the Gaza Strip and the west bank there and have Israel pay build out the infrastructure in return for the Gaza strip and the west bank now being prime real estate. Everybody would hate the idea, but that's the only kind of thing that would actually have a chance of stopping the trouble.
(I think I read somewhere in some Holy Book that the next brutal global dictator will try something similar and fail like 3 times in a row or such)...
An interesting TV show that I think people should watch is the Israeli series "Fauda" which is on Netflix as while it's produced by die hard Zionists (they are proud of it in their interviews), it is a very evenly balanced look at the issue and hatreds from both sides, so much that even the Hamas guys apparently watch it and such as well since their side is portrayed decently. It basically shows the never ending blood feud from both sides.

It's not, it is easy to understand. Think of intersectionality and how it basically scores groups as to their oppression level. Jews are, apparently*, in conflict with American blacks, who are extremely high on the intersectionality scale, and also with Muslims, who also have a very high intersectionality rating. That means that, in almost all circumstances, if you are looking at an oppressor/oppressed situation involving Jews, the Jew is the oppressor, and thus if you support the Jew, and especially the Israeli Jew, you support oppression, and are therefore, a white supremecist. It is absolutely their logic, and it is consistent as hell. Crazy but consistent.regardless of my opinion of this topic, i do find something very interesting that appears to defy traditional logic. i am certainly no expert on this topic,...but.
i have recently read that...
if you support Israel, you are a white nationalist....
seems a bit odd given the historical references to such labeling. but then again not, considering blm and the likes are publically supporting the palestinians.
perhaps its the propensity of white christians to support Israel? imo, its certainly deeper than basic "opposition to oppression".
this 180 is quite interesting...
because liberal fake jews exploit the black people and do anything to prevent them from gaining independence from handouts.It's not, it is easy to understand.

* Jews are constantly at a loss as to why we are in conflict with blacks. But we are.
Honestly, stop it. There are no such thing as fake Jews. Leave it for a time when Jews aren't being beaten in the streets. And the reasoning is trash anyway.because liberal fake jews exploit the black people and do anything to prevent them from gaining independence from handouts.
ok, then all jews?Honestly, stop it. There are no such thing as fake Jews. Leave it for a time when Jews aren't being beaten in the streets.
You sound like a damn communist right now. The animosity between blacks and Jews is pretty well understood, I was saying it tongue in cheek.ok, then all jews?
who is at the top of the income scale, exploiting those at the bottom?
what does peddling porn and prescription drugs have to do with communism or democracy?You sound like a damn communist right now. The animosity between blacks and Jews is pretty well understood, I was saying it tongue in cheek.
I'm happy to discuss with you why you hate Jews, but you are pretty far from the generally accepted reasons for the animosity between Jews and Blacks. But carry on...what does peddling porn and prescription drugs have to do with communism or democracy?
lol, i love the jewish people i know...i even like you sometimes...I'm happy to discuss with you why you hate Jews, but you are pretty far from the generally accepted reasons for the animosity between Jews and Blacks. But carry on...
I can assure you that Malcolm X, who may be right, and may in fact be talking about Jews (though I do not know), does not represent most of the historical context for this animosity. To put this silly argument to rest, if American Blacks really hated most the white people who offer them the most welfare etc politically, then why do they keep voting for Democrats? No need to answer, it is a definitive refutation of your theory.lol, i love the jewish people i know...i even like you sometimes...
but as i said many times, it must be up to conservative jews to do something about liberal jews, because any criticism of anyone that happens to be jewish is automatically labeled as anti-semitism.
who do you think this guy is referring to?

Nobody did, but the jews you are referring to in NY were orthodox, which is a very republican, and especially pro trump group. Other jews don't really like them. Of course they are often the ones beaten because they still live in poor communities and look Jewish, which kind of puts the lie to this whole idea of attacking jews because they are liberals or have so much power lol.And yet look who Jews vote for, for a long time they choose to vote very blue, and the blacks do the same as well, very strange.
A dem will go on camera and say blacks are too stupid to have, or know how to get, a ID. Blacks will vote for them.
In NY they legit rounded up Jews during covid, killed tons of small businesses, and they will still vote Democrat.
Strange culture if you ask me.

I'm not justifying it. I am explaining it. I mean, your ignorance in all things in this thread is literally astonishing, but now it can be a little less.First they came for the Jews and I didn’t do anything because...oh wait, well, see, uh, I had a dinner date and they weren’t exactly the same type of Jews, so yeah lol
I'm not justifying it. I am explaining it. I mean, your ignorance in all things in this thread is literally astonishing, but now it can be a little less.
I'm sure it is a bad sign you are used to. Your original premise was "oh my jews are weird because they were rounded up during covid and still voted blue." Your ignorance was not understanding that that group of jews is passionately red, so premise blown. Then I explained that there is a schism between sects, as in many religions, that is confrontational. I never said they weren't real jews. In fact I have said the whole fake jew premise is inherently offensive. Then you go on with Martin niemoller which is often the refuge for people like you.So what am I “ignorant” on (always a bad sign when people use that word), so you’re saying Jews don’t often vote blue? Blacks don’t often vote blue? Or Orthodox Jews arnt actually Jews?
Please help me be less “ignorant”

I mean I am pretty ignorant about Christianity but I don't go around trying to call out all the shit I don't understand. It would be unseemly, though you do do that too...
So yeah, ignorant or stupid or uneducated or whatever. That's you baby.
I think you can read for yourself. You never said Orthodox Jews in the first place, and you said that I said Orthodox weren't real Jews. Now on your way.A swing and a miss.
There is literally nothing you said right there that put into dispute anything I said, heck I said the same thing, I mentioned it’s funny how orthodox JEWS will get the full dick of NYC and non orthodox JEWS will vote for the people who dicked them over.
And please copy paste where I said anything about “fake Jews”
This was an awful mistake, but it has certainly been rectified as best as it could ever be.USS Liberty
