The reverse is much more likely. The narrative Israel just wanted peace and was defending itself from crazy Arab aggressors is complete hasbara nonsense. Israeli officials themselves admitted if they were Palestinians they’d fight Israel because they would want to defend themselves from Israel’s occupation hundreds of thousands of Palestinian citizens live in Israel and despite facing constant racism and discrimination Israelis don’t fear them whatsoever, aside from general racial disdain. They know it’s because they don’t have reason to fight Israel like the occupied Palestinians they are trying to destroy. Even in the West Bank under the occupation initially the population was passive for decades despite constant abuse until finally they started reacting with intifadas as it got worse. Look at how West Bank Palestinians behaved to Israel in the last two years, Israel is openly bragging about destroying them and supporting settler pogroms every week, and they won’t even defend themselves largely. Now compare that to Israel which is literally bombing and trying to topple other countries which have done barely anything to them which was already in response to prior aggression. Palestinians are fighting for survival, Israel is fighting for expansion. If Palestinians could survive, they’d cease fighting. Israel hasn't faced a serious outside threat in decades and is launching wars constantly. Somehow decades of Israeli propaganda has created the backwards narrative the people who they are trying to destroy are the aggressors because they sometimes defend themselves (again only sometimes, most of the time they just don’t respond the content aggression), and they are the real victims while openly saying they are trying to destroy a people and actively doing it, and if you disagree will say you’re trying to destroy them. Complete projection.

It doesn’t insist on the right of return, it calls for a just solution to the right of return to be negotiated. The PA already said they aren’t calling for a full right of return. Most people on the ground have concluded two states is impossible because of the settlements. Which is why the two states argument has become a distraction to wait for opportunities to ethnically cleanse Palestinians. The Arab peace initiative is the actual two states solution in line with international law btw. The fact you’re still against it just shows the point two staters aren’t actually serious about what is needed to create two states. https://www.haaretz.com/opinion/2026-09-01/ty-article/.premium/israel-isnt-debating-a-palestinian-state-its-preparing-for-expulsion/000001a0-56c1-dc19-a5a4-dfdfa0fd0000

You sanction israel until they accept the arab peace initiative. Terrorists attacking Israel isn’t why Israel does what it does, it uses that as an excuse. Funding Hamas to build West Bank settlements isn’t to combat terrorism, rejecting Hamas disarmament because you want to expel the civilians population isn’t to combat terrorism.

Promoting the forum is not going to bring it quality, it brings in the masses. Look at the YouTube comments, that is what you’ll get. Also a lot of the way the forum is governed and the community here is less interested in quality than it is in people who “fit in”. There were two classically enlightened people who used to post and they both got kicked out for denying god realization / universal love or something. If quality comes from experience, that’s going to have diverging paths. I’ve consistently noticed posts that I or others make that have more effort or more to chew on get less responses, and usually the responses are nitpicking or trolling. Any post with a video longer than 10 minutes or more than two paragraphs probably gets a fraction of people actually consuming it.

Just FYI most of the claims made in this thread were already debunked. This was soon after Oct 7 when Israel was spamming extremely exaggerated or completely made up accusations. That sub in particular is infamous for banning anyone critical of Israel or their claims so any skepticism was immediately removed. A lot of it is based on a NYT piece that was full of issues and had no evidence for a ton of its claims, NYT itself published a follow up article they admit undercut some of its claims as well https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screams_Without_Words#Aftermath_and_criticism

Post any video you found funny

I remember watching this animated show as a kid as I was surprised how good the later seasons became since I didn’t like the prequels and the beginning seasons were extremely mid. It’s impressive how good some of their stories were given all the constraints (it basically had to be stand alone and fit in between prequel episodes 1 and 3). My dream program would be all the people behind the good parts of this made a old republic film series, the great plot from those games combined with their writing could have made the best Star Wars films ever made.

The ultra orthodox Jewish community is more likely to still be around in 200 years than secular western liberals or even the mainstream Jewish community.

They don’t, it’s just that the right can’t process more complex political and philosophical arguments so it looks to them like support because they only see in short term and black and white.

So do most school shooters? No one ever says they aren’t responsible for their actions.

Palestinians and the Arabs, did take that risk. Palestinians lived with a Jewish minority just fine, the Arab states as well were some of the safest countries for Jews for centuries. Initially they didn’t even resist the Jewish migration to Palestine. Even when they started resisting they initially tried diplomatic pressure. What was the result? The destruction of Palestinian society, the survivors doomed to a century of persecution, and a state of terror that would launch attacks, assassinations and lobby for sanctions ruining hundreds of thousands of lives in the Middle East. Only for all that context to be ignored, to be demonized for whatever response they actually did end up having, and used as a justification for more oppression and war, because historical context only matters when it justifies what Jews do. It’s ironic because even the pioneering zionists would acknowledge that Palestinian aggression is a completely rational response to their actions. Yet somehow it’s never mentioned when it comes to Palestinians, and their actions must be condemned always. Meanwhile everything israel does is justified because Arab states expelled Jews 80 years ago so somehow that’s why we should forever assume they have intentions to genocide Jews and thus are obligated to sympathize with Israel rejecting peace offers from those same states and letting settlers go on pogroms and openly boast about trying to expel Palestinians The Arab peace initiative called for a Palestinian state on the 1967 borders (this is in line with international law) and a “just solution” on the right of return to be negotiated. Iran isn’t an Arab state. Iran was doing nothing but sending money to small militant groups that only exist because of the occupation, Iran never even attacked any country directly until israel began directly bombing it and trying to topple it. If that’s justified every attack Palestinians have ever done on israel is justified because their leaders not only call to destroy Palestine, they’re actually actively doing it. And Irans destroy israel statements were always overblown, Khomenei said it would be destroyed with time, and Khamenei also said he was against a war to destroy Israel. The idea it was some military goal and plan is baseless.
