Sadly it was very effective. Just look around and you will see most people are literally numb to the fact that there is an ongoing genocide and starvation happening to an entire civilian population yet choose to remain mentally stuck in October 7th.

Posted March 2 16 hours ago, Thought Art said: Everyone is sharing good points from different perspectives. It’s important to realize how relative this is. Each person will see the conflict differently. All judgement is relative to a large degree. How best to govern, how best to handle situations, is beyond my capacity to understand. But, I must be willing to understand this from the highest possible perspective over time. I don’t know how much I don’t know. I am attempting to perceive a super position of all possible viewpoints, opinions and perspectives. This takes not knowing, observation, multi-perspective-ism, recontextualization, understanding of bias, collective bias, survival, corruption, selfishness, social matrix, forgiveness, letting go, open mindedness, Self love etc etc However, I find as I contemplate my bias leans in and out. Toward one side or the other. Or this way is best it that way is best. Or this is what is happening or that is what is happening. What is true? What is best for humanity in the long term? I don’t know. Fundamentally the goal is to love mankind. That, mankind be well. That man kind be peaceful. War, is often a seed of peace. Surely, peace will come. But, the events that lead there no one knows. It’s also challenging because I can’t tell what is fact from fiction. It’s not clear what information is correct. I have degrees of accepting. But, I don’t know. All this sounds amazing except when it happens to you. If someone stole YOUR country. How would that make you feel? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 2 (edited) @Twentyfirst Bad. It would make anyone feel bad. But, how I feel isn’t going to matter is it? It makes me feel “bad” regardless. But, it’s my work to understand reality. Please, stop trying to shame me. It’s immature. I am as I am relative to what is. To judge those who seek understanding is to doom conflict resolution.

Posted March 3 (edited) 3 hours ago, Thought Art said: They focused during the whole video on almost only one case which I personally don't like or support, even if most of the arrested were hamas, what very plausible, still, I don't like this act. aljazeera will always focus, purposely and fully agenda driven, on the dark minority. What aljazeera are really doing is to project their own darkness, which is far-far more toxic, unhealthy and manipulative, into Israeli soldiers. But what can I do that the soldiers I know, part of them personally, and part of them through interviews (not in toxic channels) and I see humanity, good souls and a broad heart from their personality and talking. There are many good high quality people among IDF that been educated to the acceptance of the differencies in ethnicity, and to not want to harm the innocents. These are the majority.

Where there are diverse ranges of perspectives and views on this issue? Why simplify it all down and say Aljazeera, Owen Jones, The Young Turks or even any other Channel with some pro Palestinian views are all evil and bad?

They just don't know at all the Israel world. A world which is completely and utterly out of their eyesight. At the same way, for example, that I may have a sense that I shortcuted in my mind of who is the Italian guy. Unless I visit there for at least couple of weeks (accumulated) I don't understand sh*t. Only after couple of weeks of touring I can start, only start, to have glimpses of the real thing.

They live in a world separate from what Palestinians face. Should the Israeli public gain more awareness of the Palestinian's world too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
