The one I seeonly TikTok and Aljazeera.. hahaha...
Aljazeera na Qatar propaganda wing. I didn't realise this until last year when the war started.

Imagine framing the conflict as "Israel's war on Gaza" as if all of us were blind to not see what Hamas did.
The framing is to deceive folks who don't read that Israel woke up and started attacking Gaza.

Clowns.

I think they all share similar position on Israel... It's just that Shapiro is a Jew and apart from some of his past comments that can be used against him in an election, Kamala is also married to another Jew. So you will have a Jew on Kamala's bed and another one beside him at work in the white house.

I believe Kamala would have reached out to Shapiro and get his understanding.

But I kinda also like the idea of sending Trump team back to square one. They have done a lot of research and were ready and prepare to attack Shapiro, thinking he would be picked... Now they are more shocked cheesy
I completely agree. Trump just has to lose.

Buda, has the Hamas ministry of Health in Gaza given you the death toll figures of Hamas fighters, can you answer why it is only women and children making the death toll?
It is not "only women and children making the death toll", and nor must I get my information from "the Hamas ministry of Health".

There's news being reported from Palestine for those who wish to be informed.

Idiot. Those people in your country. How long you think it will take them to demand their own enclave run by Sharia, the laws of God? 20 years by my estimates.
Remember Yugoslavia..How many pieces were left. With no dictator, they quickly got their ethnic enclaves.
Examples galore .

You are assuming the intent of people who are protesting. Instead why don't you listen to why they say they are protesting. Some of the people protesting were Jewish.

Our current support of Israel is no longer in the US best interest but we do it anyway. That is the reason the CIA, Pentagon and State Department employees were up in arms over what has been going on recently. They have a real fear of negative blowback.

Does it look like what is going on in Israel is in even Israel's best interests? Sometime friends have to be able to tell friends they are fuxing up
Oh, I listen to what they are saying and I read their placards and that is why I cannot ally with them. Seeing them calling for the annihilation of Jews and justifying terrorism God forbid I cannot ally with a people who only hate bloodshed because they are losing but will see nothing wrong when it is done to Israelis.

It is in America's interest to support Israel.
It is in Israel's best interest just like any other country to defeat any terrorists organisation that threatens its sovereignty.
The Jewish state must exist it owes no nation how it defends its existence because no nation will stay silent and let terrorists kill its people.

No nation not even this yeye country they call Nigeria will allow it.

I was once Pro-Palestine years ago partly because I didn't read these things. I have always liked Israel though but called it an apartheid state.

When I started researching my notion changed and what Hamas did on October 7th and Palestinians celebrating it completely changed me.

There is no justification for it, neither is there one defending Hamas. I began to despise the far-left after that. What Israel is doing is what any other country will do.

It is only a problem because they are Jews.

When the Romans did the first recorded Holocaust against the Jews, they renamed Israel to Palestine. Arabs were not part of the mix then.

The ottomans are not Arabs. During their conquest, their leader converted to Islam which leads to their civilization to adopt Islam.

If we are to go by your first sentence then the Jews have more claim to the land then. Afterall History records that Jews lived in that land and the Romans drove them out and they fled. Same way some Arabs fled after losing to Israel in 1948 that is the effects of war anyway.

Also, I have never bought the idea of just Jews owning that place but if you want to go that route then the Jews have more claim to it. (Historical facts) the Arabs migrated there from Arabia.
Same way the Europeans immigrated to the Americas but if we are to go with your argument in defence of Palestine then the Whites in Canada and the U.S. do not own those areas but the Native Americans. grin

Why I am of the opinion that Palestinians never owned that place is simple government knowledge, they never had sovereignty over it or governed the place that was why it was partitioned. In this era ownership of a country or terrority is exercised by legitimate sovereignty which the Palestinians lacked and not because my father or grand father lived there. If we are to go with your weak argument then those Yorubas telling Igbos to go back to the East are right when in fact they are wrong because no where in the constitution does it deprive any Nigerian of moving and living in anywhere or claiming possession of it there of.

You should go ask the Israelis who claim they killed Hamas terrorists how many Hamas terrorists they have killed.

35,091 Palestinians have been killed, and 78,827 were injured, and I believe these figures are on the conservative end.

No one can answer since hamas regards 17 years old boys as children.

People are dying, children are losing their lives. It's sad but at this point what are they fighting for?

Iran who pushes them to fight is intact.

Israel has a 20% Arab Muslim.population. Hamas and Hesbolla have very wise rockets. They rain down thousands of rockets to Israel that are intelligent enough to just kill Jews and not Arabs Muslims.
They have a sensors that are racist.
Israel has a huge ammonia plant thy Iran had targeted besides their Dimona nuclear facility. Had they been successful, the fallout would have been only Jews.
That sarcasm is enough to tell you something. They don't mind killing their fellow adherents as long as a Jew dies. Go back to class and try to understand that reasoning.
9/11 they celebrated like a nonsense because they killed Americans, there were Muslims killed too in the process.

Romans drove them out when exactly? And how long has that land been handed down in my own family that Jews Romans supposedly drove out can now come and claim it from me?

Its complex is my point. When I had this discussion with the stupid idiot, it began with native Americans claiming their land back from white settlers. After all, they, the native Americans, owned it first, and if the white settlers want to continue owning it they should at least pay todays going price, right?

Ok, can you point to a few examples of some of those college students with 'placards' that are "calling for the annihilation of Jews"?

And how do you define 'terrorist' that Israel should "defeat any terrorists organisation"?

Lastly, there was a report out from a respectable agency that the true toll of deaths in Palestine is 186,000 or more, not the 38,000 that is being reported. Are you comfortable with that? Why?

Question. Do you believe your views on Israel are impacted by your Christian views?

I really didn't think AmazonTopaz would be the one to school you on the Israel Palestine conflict. It has nothing to do with land, it's all about inherent anti semitism.

I agree that Netanyahu doesn't want this war to end either way with Hamas in power the blood shed will always continue unfortunately.

They need to read a book to know that the Hamas controlled ministry of Health in Gaza inflates fatality counts and any info they give you must be very scrutinized.

It is in Gaza that we get to know that only women and children are dying from this war and not the terrorists. They conflate everything together to deceive folks like you. They have never released death toll of Hamas fighters yet we know that they are thousands of them, give me a fvcking break.
Only women and children cannot be dying in Gaza.
Right! You want to split hairs about the exact number of kids that have been blown up.
Thousands of kids in a stateless occupied territory have been murdered.
I don't think it is relevant to certify that the number is 5,000, 10,000, or 15,000.
Too many are dead. That is our macabre reality.

We both agree that Netanyahu does not want this carnage to end.
Virtually every government in the West, besides the likes of Germany, want a ceasefire.
There are near daily protests in Israel requesting a ceasefire tied to the release of hostages.

Under these conditions, I do not see why you are comfortable tarring anyone who opposes this homicidal orgy as holding extremist views or unknowledgeable.
There is nothing extremist about saying, stop killing children. It is really that simple for many of us.
Stop Netanyahu from sacrificing Palestinian children to prolong his doomed political career.

Israel has violently snatched its pound of flesh.
I and many others believe they have crossed a line.
You clearly do not think so. You think the ratio is still morally tenable.
Do not discount our position in a democracy.
I say this because you've used colorful language to describe or label those who have a lower tolerance threshold for Israel's barbarism.

@bold, Israel literally compromised to give East Jerusalem under Ehud Barak that was a big compromise. Israel has mostly agreed to every peace plan that I know of the PLO under Arafat rejected every deal. Every of them, that is not a people that want peace they don't want Israel to exist and unless they embrace peace this unfortunate war will continue that is why Shapiro was right in that 1993 article.

Also, I stand by what I said those students I see on TV defending Hamas or being pro-Palestine are dumb and ill informed or those schools are not sending their best. They are getting their information on TikTok and SAT scores are not the only measure for intelligence. Ted Cruz, Hawley, Alito and Thomas even dumbo Kavanaugh went to those schools. grin grin
Go take a look at the proposals. The Palestinians wouldn't have had a contiguous state and would have still been subjected to Israeli rule over their country. They were negotiating from a place of weakness.

I'm sorry, you've jumped the shark making arguments that students from top 10 colleges are dumb and ill informed and get their information from Tik Tok. You're riding the Republican train that knowledge is gained through some form of osmosis by just sitting on your couch.

I've think you gotten it mistaken, Ted Cruz, Alito and Kavanaugh are brilliant. You have to be to get into Harvard or Yale Law School or be the editor of a law review or clerk for a Supreme Court Justice (outside of those who got the clerkship through privilege). They have just made the choice to act uninformed because it aligns with their goals. If you asked them privately, they'd probably agree that their arguments intellectually dishonest.

He blew himself up , and also killed a dog that had gone to smoke him.out. He had taken his children too into that tunnel/hole.
What man uses his own offspring to die with him?
Do you realize these terrorists will kill their children to make a point. Because the media will run away with the narrative? Innocence killed.
