Israel / Palestine News Thread

[Danioover9000]

@Leo Gura, @Carl-Richard, @Thought Art, @OBEler please remind everyone here it's a news thread and not a debate thread? I'm like seeing several Israel threads here and they all turn into the same heated drama discourse just like the locked one. Even my own thread which is about sharing documentaries was getting hostile.

   Few questions here are: Did they coerce/blackmail/intimidate Ohad Merlin into saying that? And how much bribery went to him?

   Also what kind of name is Ohad Merlin??? MERLIN????😭😂🤦‍♀️

This isn’t news but analysis related to the recent news of the resolution:

From the tweet:

“So never before have we been able to see in such an obvious way the immense contrast between the rules-based order and international law.

And there's no going back, the curtain was pulled: if they hadn't noticed before, the world now knows for sure that the US (and Israel of course) is quite literally a rogue state, operating outside international laws and norms, and outside the most fundamental moral principles.

There's no overstating how consequential this is for the integrity of international relations. By doing so, the US effectively destroys the world order it largely created after WW2 because it effectively tells everyone that the set of institutions, rules and norms that underpin it are meaningless. We're effectively now in a world system where everyone realizes the police, the government, the basic set of beliefs, have become completely corrupted. This changes everything.”

   This is what misinformation, insulting and targeted harassment looks like:

   You know that you're dreaming or in some alternate reality when you have Donald Trump even putting some pressure on Israel to hurry up and make peace, telling Israel and through those representatives Netanyahu to stop wasting time with a prolonged war and ceasefire. Now of course Trump didn't explicitly condemn Israel nor call for ceasefire, but the implied command here to Israel is to quickly finish this conflict up as the world is turning against you.

   Even Sun Tzu's Art of War he was against prolonged warfare, and if war is avoidable choosing those options is more effective than making war despite how genius Sun Tzu is in war.

   Another example of Trump showing good charisma and rhetoric manipulation.

Trump will allow Israel to create greater Israel in a one state solution, that looks likely. So no doubt he will win 2024. 
 

it’s all an easy script to read and predict.

"world Central Kitchen is devastated to confirm seven members of our team have been killed in an IDF strike in Gaza."

“Israeli legislators have approved a bill paving the way for a ban on Al Jazeera and other international news outlets perceived as posing a threat to security”.

IDF clearly have the capability to target with precision yet there always seems to be “collateral damage” this time citizens of the UK, Australia, Canada. Some comments saying it’s a failed Hamas rocket that fell.
