Most Arabs countries are suck for living due to lack in democracy, development, liberalism and human rights. It's not unique to Palestinians in Gaza or WB which means it's not Israel to blame. People who really know how Arabs live in the middle east claim that Palestinians in Gaza and WB have life quality similar to most Arabs in Arab countries, and even better.

That's one of the reasons why the term "occupation" in relation to Israel is absurd.

Many people who have never been in Israel and don't know where Israel is even located on the map, say: "Israel is an apartheid state." Arabs in Israel:

The thing is that patriarchy is based on society not being safe for women, of men not being safe for women, and in a society that isn't safe for women, women should be protected by men from other men. They must be dependent on men and be at their mercy to be saved from other men. Also, if something bad happens to a women by a man, it doesn't grantee that she will be saved and justice will be made and the agressor will pay the price. In patriarchal society, mostly women are those who pay the price of men hurting them, for example, if a man rapes a woman, she usually would be the one to blame. But when society is safe for women, and men are safe for women, there is no need for this unhealthy dependence on men for survival which also limits the woman's personal and spiritual growth. In fact, the fact that men as a collective relatively safe for women and women are given rights and the protection from the law, it's the ultimate protection, thus, patriarchal society in particular isn't required. When a woman isn't dependent on a man for basic survival, she has the power to choose a man she wants and not the one she needs, the choice is made by a free will and not because of necessity, which opens the possibilty of higher and more authentic form of love. However, there is a need for compassionate yet strong form of masculinity in the society, healthy masculinity. Not compassionate but weak and not strong but lack in compassion. There is a need for a healthy balance between the masculine and the feminine, a society which honors both. This is not to demonize patriarchy as it is a step in the human collective evolutionary development, a step we are stepping on altogether. But it's not and shouldn't be the ultimate goal.

Antisemitism is not limited to the most extreme right-wing ideologies. Ironically, it can also be found in extreme left-wing ideologies. Are you immune to antisemitism?

Interesting, thank you. Hopefully 🙏 I agree, our understanding tends to be limited to our survival bias and it's not enough to resolve complex issues.

Gantz seems like a good and moderate option. I hope he wouldn't be eaten alive by the radicals though, they seem dangerous. @Nivsch What SD stage Gantz is in your opinion?

Do you think Hamas gives a shit about dead Palestinians? Please don't be naive, they use them as human shields and execute them for arbitrary reasons. The world should be putting more pressure on Hamas, and their sugar daddies Qatar and Iran.

I don't say that terrorism needed to condomend especially for women. This post is an expression of my disappointment and criticism of the feminist organizations in handling this scenario. I'm talking about women rights organizations in particular, not about human rights organizations (which are also biased against Israel btw and don't condomn Hamas properly either). I'm talking about feminists which their entire agenda is to be sensitive to violation of women rights in every scenario and not selectively. There are war crimes and human violations which are unique to women like rape, and violence for sexist reasons that many times men don't see or understand.

So is that mean that Hamas should never be accountable to their crimes?

That's wonderful what you say but can you elaborate on how it's related to the topic?

It's not only UN, women organizations in the world are biased in favor of one side and it's upsetting. Even if they can't do anything about Hamas, it would be enough to mention it at least and bring it to the collective awareness. Because if they as feminists don't talk about it, it's as if they are fine with it or support what Hamas have done in the name of "resistance". Yes, totally different values, and they can't really control Hamas but they could at least not be that silent about Hamas crimes against women and make it clear that occupation or not, colony or not, rape, murder and torture of women is wrong and not legitimate. Raping women is always wrong and unnecessary. Even if the women raped are not in my "political party". True feminism should care about all the women and not being selective. Historically it helped women to get equal rights to men, less depended on men for survival and saved women from abuse and limiting tranditinal roles that limit human's natural development.

It's not about that. It's about the UN Women and other women organizations in the world being biased in favor of one side while it's expected from them to be more objective and condomn all the harm caused to all the women in this war, regardless their political opinions. The UN women didn't mentioned the severe and brutal acts done by Hamas against Israeli women. If you really read this you see that they don't mention Hamas murder, rape and kidnapping of Israeli women by Hamas, they just say some general statement: Again, there is no mention of Hamas commiting brutal acts such rape murder and torture of women bodies, no mention of kidnapping of Israeli women of all the ages.

The last videos of hostages Hamas released, show that the hostages were alive when Hamas took them and Hamas executed them in the captivity. They literally show a person alive in a video and then its dead body. This is so sick and brutal. And people literally justify this cruelty and see this as legitimate "resistance".

Islam is a religion and like many religions it's suffecating, misogynist, hypocratic, self righteous, ignorant. I have respect to any religion but I don't want any religion to control the world, I don't want to live under Muslim Shriiet, I don't want to be forced to it. I don't like the fact that there are Muslim terrorists like Hamas, ISIS, Muslim Brotherhood who believe that everybody must to be a Muslim and they would kill innocents just because they are not Muslims.or not following Islam rules. This is scary to be surrounded by people who prefer you dead than non-Muslim. I don't care them practicing Islam peacefully and leave others alone. In fact, moderate Muslims many times are kind and generous people. The Arab and the Muslim culture has beautiful and intresting aspects in it, if we ignore the toxic and the religious dogma. I also love the mystical Islam, the Sufism, this is a very wise, beautiful and inspiring for me personally. But I don't love the fact that the Arab Muslim world doesn't like Jews and Israel, I don't see a rational reason for that, only primitive and religious. I don't understand why they can't allow one Jewish country to exist while they have so many land to be Muslim and practice Islam. This is the the aspect in Islam that I don't like, the belief that Islam is superior to everything and that everyone should be a Muslim. They want Europe and America to be that way at the end, they don't appreciate that people have the right and the soverty to believe in what they want to believe and that not believing in Islam doesn't make you some bad person who deserves death.

Definitely 😉

Also there are many 'Palestinians' who are Egyptians, Jordanians. Arafat, the first leader of what is called PNA was born and grew up in Egypt. Because Palestinians never had real nationalistic intentions, as you said, they define themselves as Palestinians against the Jews in Israel but in reality they see themselves as part of the Arab world in the middle east, like part of some big Arab tribe. So if they are under the Jordanian or Egyptian occupation that would be fine for them. Even their flag is not different from other Arab flags. The Palestinian flag is the old flag of Jordan. In order to have really nationalistic intentions a group needs to be at least orange in SD and the Palestinians as a group are not there yet. Their excuse in fighting Israel is that they want to have soverty as a nation, but actually their Muslim Arab pride was hurt because Jews won them in the war and they cannot accept the lost against Jews.

I love Israel. I know many people love to hate Israel. But Israel always was strong and advanced depiste all the haters. And it will be so. They think that the more they hate on Israel, the faster it will be ruined. But the truth is that their hatred around the world fuels Israel to be even better and stronger. Which causes them to hate Israel even more, which makes Israel even more better and stronger 🙈

There is anti Israel and antisemitism from all the spiral, it's not limited to a particular stage. Jews are also an ethnic group, not only a religious group. This is why there are secular Jews who can be nationalist, aka, Zionists.

Ok, so Israel won the war against the Arabs of Israel and other Arab countries in 1948. Is that mean that the abuse in form of terror towards Israeli civilians is justified because of that? But there are black Jews in Israel, there are Jews of all kinds. So what? I know there are 9 million+ Jews who say that Jews do belong to Israel.

Zionism was created by secular, non religious Jews. No it's not. The comparison of Zionism to ISIS or Taliban is ridiculous. Zionism has more in common with European nationalist movements. Islamic countries are much more religious and radical than Israel. Israel is hated mainly because of irrational antisemitism.

Israel is making fun of BBC news bias, again 😂

Israel is making fun of BBC bias, so accurately 😂
