raumdeuter:There are Palestinians who are fighting in and the UN, and there are those who fight other ways. Even the IRA had a political wing that argued it's case in court while it's military wing terrorised and bombed Britain. |
raumdeuter:The Native Indians would no doubt be pleased, but this is hardly the same thing since the Native Indians are not fighting for land back like the Palestinians are, and have been settled with relatively acceptable reserve land where they rule and collect taxes. Now, if Biden and dump and Obama start encroaching on the reservations, I bet you the Native Indians would get an Hamas to fight back if the justice system doesn't defend their rights. |
raumdeuter:The UN partitioned land that some people lived on and those people who lived on the land that was taken from them did not stand the idea that their land should be taken from them. Atheist that I am, I too would not stand the idea of those who steal my land, even and especially if the land stealers present a god given CofO. |
raumdeuter:Go back as far as you need to get an understanding of the matter please. Just that I don't think the Israelites were even a people in 5000BC, and if they were, they were nomads with no land, as their own religious history shows. Unfortunately, it's not in the interest of the Israelis to go too far back or we'd need to discuss how that CofO came about in the first place. |
raumdeuter:I would claim you attacked me first when you occupied my land that I inherited from my great great great grandfather and took the olives he planted for me. And no, I haven't "lost" because you can see I am obviously fighting back. |
raumdeuter:For understanding? Probably 1000BC if you want to be unbiased and fair. One should know how and why Israel lost their state such that the UN needed to be recognising their over 2300 year old CofO at least. |
raumdeuter:The British did not think they shouldn't negotiate with the IRA and the Mau Mau who were terrorising and bombing them. They sat down to negotiate in the end, just as the apartheidians had to sit down and negotiate with the supposed ANC terrorists. Watch the news. See that Palestinian child and let me know how old you think he'd have to be to forgive the State of Israel that obliterated his entire family with a bomb. |
raumdeuter:They have, Raum, many times. But Israel and it's allies seem to have the United Nations locked down. Are you aware that Gambia, and Kenya and Madagascar were proposed as Jewish state before the Jewish Certificate of Occupation was accepted? What I think is the western world felt guilty at the treatment of the Jews even long before Germany tried to eliminate them, and that guilt is what made them acquire land for Israel. And that's apart from the fact that the Western world worships the Jewish God who can be used to influence and manipulate. |
raumdeuter:Perhaps read what you posted! The Arab Higher Committee, the Arab League and other Arab leaders and governments rejected it on the basis that in addition to the Arabs forming a two-thirds majority, they owned a majority of the lands.[21][22] They also indicated an unwillingness to accept any form of territorial division,[23] arguing that it violated the principles of national self-determination in the UN Charter which granted people the right to decide their own destiny.[8][24] They announced their intention to take all necessary measures to prevent the implementation of the resolution.[25][26][27][28] Subsequently, a civil war broke out in Palestine,[29] and the plan was not implemented.[30]And that was in 1948, and that war has been ongoing since. But I guess you expect they'd just give up and accept defeat which they haven't. |
raumdeuter:If you want to ignore history and just the past 5 or so years and be convinced "this current escalation started from the October 7", then I guess I'll let you be since I'm aware people make up their own narratives and believe them. It may be maga era, but the facts are out there. |
raumdeuter:When you attack and steal my land me I will fight back, and I will willingly bear the consequences for standing up for myself even if it's death. What I wouldn't do is slink away from a bully like a coward who's afraid of dying, and I can't possibly be the only one who would react like I would as you can see. |
raumdeuter:So, after the UN took the land that the Arab neighbours lived on, the Arab neighbours decided to wage war on those who occupied their land? Seriously, when people write in the convoluted way you've done above, I often wonder if they are trying to convince themselves or just have no respect for those they converse with, especially if like you they have shown they can write and express themself better. |
IjeBos:How can that possibly be my argument when I've seen mods come here to try to moderate and fail because they find it difficult to moderate both sides that are as bad as each other? IjeBos:I do legitimise the bigotry when I engage with them too much, or I at least fuel them in their bigotry. IjeBos:Mods tried and failed. And I bet this thread attracts eyeballs, and eyeballs put money in seun's pocket, so perhaps see his conflict. As for support, I'd say one supports just by posting in the thread, so you tell me why you support it. IjeBos:As opposed to protesting outside the stupid idiot's shop with a placard? Depends on my time I guess, and I'm saying I don't need to shop at this stupid idiot's shop, and they are far too insignificant for a placard. Besides, engaging with them pleases them while ignoring them pains them even more, so there. |
basilico:The entire Israel State is based on religion and is a cultural thing too, but I guess from your previous I shouldn't be surprised at your justification by demonising. |
raumdeuter:This does not deserve a response, sorry, since anyone who cares can go read about Israel's land grabbing even apart from that which was grabbed for them.
|
raumdeuter:It is propaganda to claim this started at a concert when there's evidence of conflict going back decades. |
IjeBos:No one is asking anyone to "normalize the rowdiness". Isn't it however better if one does not add to the rowdiness by over engaging with the rowdy by feeding pointless trolls? Please know that I'm saying this because I'm selfish. I'd read your stuff more because I can see you use your brain well, but a lot of what I might read you write goes unread because it would involve letting the stupid idiot you engage with occupy my time, which is verboten by and for me. In fact, even this conversation is far too much of my time used in it's yukky regard, so forgive me if I'm done on the subject while I pray Biden does not spend his campaign resource responding to troll dump and thereby getting him more free attention than he'd get.

MrBrownJay1:O Lord Gods. I thank you all that all men are not created to be Nigerian men. |
raumdeuter:This is precisely what was said about the Mau Mau, and the ANC and the IRA and Ipob. The people they terrorise will sell you a demonising narrative so you ignore what they themselves may be doing to provoke it. raumdeuter:Israel has no such capacity to "exterminated every Gazan", though I can't argue they are very close at the moment. If Israel exterminated Gazans whom many around the world are marching in support of already, Israel will become a pariah state and be no different to Apartheid South Africa and Hitler's Germany that tried to exterminate they themselves, and in due time, I'd expect them to get the same treatment those nations got, or at least become a popular tourist destination for suicide bombers. raumdeuter:Go after Hama's. Destroy them completely if you can, but don't exterminate Palestinians please. raumdeuter:I think if we went and took some people's land and gave it to some people who use their religious book that we also read as the CofO, there might come a time in the future when we might ask ourselves if what we did was just. What I doubt we'd do is condone those we helped steal the land exterminating those we stole the land from. "I recognise that the Palestinian people are suffering terribly. Over 4,000 Palestinians have been killed in this conflict. They are also the victims of Hamas, who embed themselves in the civilian population. Too many lives have already been lost, and the humanitarian crisis is growing."

MrBrownJay1:Let me send you my grandma's details or a former colleague's who doesn't want children so you can tell them their "value diminishes greatly" because they cannot have children any longer. Not everyone determines a woman's value by her potential to have children, same as not every man is valued by his Benz.
|
IjeBos:I mentioned Ipob, and I did not mean it in a derogatory way. Whether I agree with them or not, I don't expect those who think they are being oppressed to stand down and just accept their oppression without fighting back. As to supporting a forum as it is, I guess you've managed to pay the subscription that I'm still begging to pay in support, but what I'd try to do is not support a stupid idiot to get exposure on my behalf, and I definitely do not see the point in 'supporting' them too much with my previous time and intellect because I'm aware that unnecessary consumption of my time is their sole reason for existing. It's the teacher in me I guess. I'd be cheating the learners and those capable of reasoning with or against me if the rowdy ignorant students get most of my attention and time.
|
raumdeuter:Apples Vs oranges, since both want to be left alone. My personally opinion is that what Israel is doing to Palestinians is no different to South Africa's apartheid, and Hamas is their ANC and Mau Mau combined (if they were British in Kenya, that is), and even their Ipob and their IRA. I do not expect the oppressed and exploited to just role over and accept it without fighting back. |
raumdeuter:Enough times, you'd find if you checked, since the slaves were not all docile obedient lemmings. https://www.pbs.org/wnet/african-americans-many-rivers-to-cross/history/did-african-american-slaves-rebel/ Pity there were no rockets then though. |
IjeBos:The judgement does say "a reasonable person might perceive impropriety", and not just any odd "some". Anyway, I'm pleased Fanni semidodged a bullet. She could have been told to withdraw from the case herself and still could be made to by dump delaying till she's routed (hope not) in the forthcoming elections. |
I was looking for government money in this golf course so I could say golf will not solve hunger, but I haven't found any government money yet, and whoever invested to build the golf course is not responsible for solving anyone's hunger. So well done golf course builders. When you are done, can you please be the first to build a Formula One race course too please, if only to make others envy Anambra and show Nigerians what is possible. |
30 year old women with education do not marry uneducated 19 year olds, and it's harder for the post 30 year old they do marry to exploit them.
|
IjeBos:That took not long. Why give advice you can't use yourself? IjeBos: |
IjeBos:And the judge's decision does not claim him being there had or might have an impact on the case which has not got an outcome yet. What the judge said is, some may perceive impropriety, and I happen to be one of those who agrees that some (read magabasilico already), will see impropriety, especially considering how low dump would go to get himself exonerated. And I wish Fanni had kept her Willis in her knickers or fuqed someone unrelated to her case instead of giving dump head.
|
IjeBos:But she didn't fire him, and she stupidly let herself become the case and overshadow her case against dump. What she did was unprofessional at the least. And she's lucky she hasn't been thrown off the case by some dodgy judge, is my opinion. |
DaHighLife:As the judge said, "perception of impropriety". And not many would argue that perception does not exist. Magas here sure would perceive impropriety, and dump definitely will claim harm and prejudice even though this ruling does not help him achieve his goal, and that would become the show while the prosecution of dump is on the side. Fanni should have known better. Her actions are letting dump off. |
DaHighLife:This precedent actually establishes that Fanni shouldn't have hired her Wade. And to be honest, on a case of this magnitude she should have known better and has gotten off lightly, though I'm certain the defence will milk this all the way to appeal somehow. |
