New War In Israel / Gaza

[Scholar]

It's so funny we live in a reality where there is a real chunk of truth in what Jordan Peterson has so long been talking about in regards to marxists:

 

And I still blame social media for most of it.

Palestinians do you agree with suicide bombings?

All of them seems very nice people, but all think that they don't want to share the land, the only solution is the disappearance of Israel, out of pride. This is going to lead them to the apocalypse. But they don't care because they think that this way they will have a better life after this, since this way they fulfill their religious duty. the solution is impossible

very interesting. For them the most important thing is identity. more than life. If they lose the land they lose their identity as a nation, and they cannot get rid of that, they prefer the destruction of their lives and those of their children. Without identity there is no life, it is the collective ego in action, pushing for war, as so many times before. I thought it was about Islam, wrong, it's about identity. Like all the wars.

Don't lose your shit, this is being offered as one perspective for you to contemplate:

 

I’m not in opposition to what this guy is saying, and for eradicating Hamas.
 

But how does one sit comfortably with the slaughter to come of possibly more than 1.1 million people in Gaza now being asked to evacuate in an impossible scenario? I trust the US to eliminate Isis in Mosul when they were hiding in civilian houses, but not the Israelites in fighting Hamas, it’s going to be a mass murder in a blind vengeful way. All Hamas’ fault! Those poor people don’t even have a say in supporting or not supporting those scumbags and yet they are the ones who’ll be burned and driven out of their houses in this war.

 

I’m seeing the west being completely insensitive towards the thousands of innocents that are being killed, are the lives of these Palestinians just worthless/not important ?

They do care. There’s intentionality being lost in translation. Their answer is not that of a radical terorrist, they are answering the question logically like math; I can feel that the person asking the questions is disturbed by the answers, or he thinks they are being senseless for not caring about what the ramifications of their answers are, but they are simply saying : “it would be justice if the Jewish people who came and took a land that was not theirs to leave it and go back where they were” the kind of school yard justice. I doubt that if these people were realistically given a two states solution they will not take it, maybe feel bitter or oppressed about it but they will gladly take it.

Israel needs to be told to use restraint. That's really all that can be done at this point.

Israel will either go hog-wild or they will use restraint.

Their ego was bruised by being taken by surprise - and thus they reacted by unleashing hell - not caring who suffers from the crossfire.  Yes - they do need to learn restraint.   But they have reduced themselves to no better than their oppressors.  The irony is that it is they who have been oppressed since the beginning of time - you would think that they would behave like God's chosen by now.

I wouldn't say that. The Israeli army still shows way more restraint than Hamas.

The fighting in Gaza is gonna be a total deathtrap.

Clearing Hamas out of there will be a nightmare:

They haven't, but war is war.  There will be collateral damage.  That is the nature of war.  It is dog eat dog.

That's funny, judging by how thirsty the Israeli army is for Palestinian blood, civilians or not with their airstrikes, not allowing any aid, water, food or medical help to Gaza. What's clear as daylight is that both Hamas and the Israeli army are acting like animals and are stage red people.

Since the start of this. The Israeli army have killed 724 children according to the health ministry in the Gaza. How can they be any different from Hamas? They're showing they have zero morality

You are assigning a spiral dynamic model to war.  War in itself is a stage red phenomenon.   When a stage red individual forces a stage turquoise individual into the corner by threatening to erase their existence- all of that goes out the window.  They can allow themselves to be erased, or they can become the stage red individual in order to defeat them and preserve their survival.   Does that make them stage red? No.   It just makes them want to survive.

Better send in the un troops and separate these guys

Oh okay, so you're saying Hamas would erase Israel existence? Wow. Point is, the Israeli army is currently bombing civilians not really Hamas and have killed dozens of innocent Palestinians left and right with 724 children and is banning any aid, food, water or medical help to get to Gaza. I'm not sure how that is helping them with "surviving". They pretty much seem to me worse than Hamas

Yes, they have been bred to hate the Jews and that is all they live for.  To wipe out their existence.   Maybe they should have thought about casualties before they thought about the complete annihilation of Israel and the Jewish people.   You have to appreciate that the Jews have been persecuted since the beginning of time.   After a while, it just gets to the point where if you strike first, which they always do, then at some point you have to pay a steep price.    Playing mister nice guy didn't work in the past - and it's surely not going to work now.

It's very different from Hamas.

Number of bodies is the wrong factor to use in assessing this situation.

Just mentioned the number to refer to the fact that they also have no morality. If hamas are a bunch of extremist individuals who only wanna kill israeils, you can also make an argument that the Israeli army shares the same views about the Palestinians but with 10x the force of hamas and the proof of this is the genocide they're carrying in Gaza atm.
