Then there's the history of bombings and killings of Palestinians before this war by Israel. I've been out of the loop about this situation since it started as I had to do things in life recently, so imagine my surprise when idk what the hell is going on lmao And you certainly wont know from this thread. That said - i think war is a bitch. It doesn't matter who is right anymore - it is about who wins. My bias is that Israel must stand its ground and destroy all threats. But at what cost? At the cost of forgoing their humanity? Then again, most leaders left their humanity at the door Wisdom. Truth. Love. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jewish people got merked by Hitler and they took out their frustration by stealing land from Palestinians in the name of victimhood and religion. Once you understand that part then it all is pretty simple. The Jews who complain about Hitler weren't even alive at that time and the Palestinians who complain about Jews are definitely still alive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Gulf countries, Middle Eastern nations, stability in the region, Ukraine, the US and Europe, along with Iran's secular and moderate populations—essentially, the Iranian regime poses a threat to the civilized world. Their entire belief system is built on opposing America and the West, and they are determined to gain control over their entire region. Ask yourself what made the Abraham Accords possible. The moderate Gulf countries understand this threat better than any of us. Isn't the whole point of democracy to let the people in other countries choose how they live?

Let Iran be what it wants to be Unfortunately Iran is not a liberal democracy. And I'm not in the business of interfering with their domestic decisions. I'm in the business of being aware that some nations/regimes can be hostile, harbor bad intentions, and may be willing to act against other countries. The spectrum of options available to nations includes these choices as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe the tortures happened, but evidence is needed. By the way, before some retarded threatens to hit me, I just want to know if there really was torture or not, I'm very sorry for not believing what a guy on the street says, evidence is needed, as there are thousands of hours of recording It will be very easy to get them, but what has been shown to journalists is without torture or murder of children. I respect a lot of some of you want to believe something and don't want to listen anything that contradicts the version that you want to be happy, it is your life and if that is useful for you, great. There are many people like you, but I prefer to try to find out the truth as precisely as possible and then form an opinion.

You could believe that if you prefer This guy is not just a random guy from the street but he is volunteering in ZAKA which is an organization in Israel which evacuating these bodies and he shares his experience, what he have seen. There are many photos on the internet, of burned people and babies, video tours of dead bodies laying, I don't think it's allowed to share such things here but if you want to find it, use Google and you will get there. If you don't want to believe to it, then no matter what evidence you will be presented with, you will not believe to it so it's useless to even try and convince you that this has happened. People deny Holocaust until these days, you know, and there is lot of evidence for it in writing, pictures and videos. People also deny the level of cruelty 6 millions Jews were murdered by, or deny that the number was actually 6 millions. There are many Jewish holocaust survivors who talk openly about horrible things that happened to them during the Holocaust, and yet, some people would still deny this and will not believe them.

Well ok, I see. I understand your emotional attitude, and that you encourage your team no matter what happens, since you have chosen sides, but I think it is better to try to really understand what is happening.

It's hard for me to believe that they would lie about such things. On the other hand, it seems for me that you consider everything they say as questionable, while when there is report about 2000 children killed in Gaza you automatically believe.

Most people choose sides and most of the people who say they don't chose side, are either don't know much about the conflict, lie to appear more open, or not aware to that they have already chose side. I can see and understand both perspectives and empathize with people on the human level, yet, I choose to support one above the other, because it more represents my values and world view, especially when their value system has more integrity than of the other side.

Posted November 4, 2023 4 minutes ago, Nabd said: All sides lie during war and that's what we call propaganda. Gazans have been very active in verifying that the bombs and rockets are falling on civilians and they share these videos openly and they documented the people who died where you can find the names and ID numbers online so its only fair people ask the same from the Israeli side. What about "Pallywood"? People in Gaza actively faking death and injury? And what about the Al Madani hospital that was bombed by the Islamic Jihad but Hamas automatically blamed Israel? It makes me wonder about how many deaths in Gaza were blamed on Israel while it wasn't Israel's falut? I understand that people share propaganda from both sides but there are different types of propaganda, some of them are more rooted in reality than others while some of them are completely twisted from reality. And given the level of development of each side, for me, the propaganda of Hamas seems much less reliable than the one of the IDF.

Why tie children's hands and then torture them when you are in enemy territory and at any moment the army is going to come and kill you? Don't you see that it's a lie? He is inventing everything. You don't tie children's hands when you're a guy with an assault rifle, it's not necessary. All are lies to start the great nakba, you will see. We are going to see very important things.

What massacre of children? The burned baby? I just saw 2 pictures of children and there are thousands in the kibbutzs. When I emphasize the issue of torture and children, I do not do it because I am a maniac, I do it because I see that it is the first step in the strategy of lies to dehumanize the enemy before the genocide.
