The video was by Israeli soldiers. Aljazeera didn’t make them do it. They didn’t project their darkness into them to make them do all these bad things. If we are talking about bias, your bias is bonkers. It’s so programmed inside your mind. I don’t know how you will ever break free from the ego mind. You are the only person on this thread who hasn’t had a proper break from it. You need to log out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 4 5 minutes ago, Thought Art said: @Merkabah Star Yes, but their presentation is biased. Just watch the videos themselves and think you what think. Listen to the soldiers themselves what do they say? Both sides are biased, sure. But when you pull back from this conflict and let go of your bias, and just sit with it, and look at it again, it is hard not to have an opinion on it. Just the sheer numbers of children and women dead. It’s hard not to get emotional about it and why the western powers haven’t shut it down yet. The USA could stop it tomorrow if they wanted to. Is it biased to call out humanitarian nightmares that are breaking international law? I don’t think that is bias. That’s being real. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 4 (edited) 10 hours ago, Thought Art said: He is a biased actor in the situation. So, when you read his responses simply realize his survival interests. Israel needs to believe it is good and right to kill tens or hundreds of thousands. In their mind this is a good thing. It’s bad for everyone else who has biases against killing and starving and wounding that many people. People tend prefer and base their views around what is good for them. Also assume the information he is surrounded by and the background he comes from. Then, do the same thing for yourself. You also have biases that shape your world view. hamas plans his whole strategy to make it impossible to harm him without harm civilians too. This his survival strategy. This is his 24/7 job. The number 1 survival strategy of every gerilla terror organization. To hide behind civilians and use them as a shield. Imagine 20,000 hamas terrorists hide behind civilians and see how difficult this war is.

Posted March 4 (edited) 14 hours ago, Raze said: So why weren’t any of these prior conflicts enough to serve that purpose and how do they know this current onslaught will? https://www.statista.com/chart/16516/israeli-palestinian-casualties-by-in-gaza-and-the-west-bank/ They don't know, but anyway, they have to do, because if they don't they have lost the war without fight . That is to say, after the attac the balance tips towards what his enemies want: the disappearance of his nation. If the scale leans that way, someone will immediately add more stones to make it lean more, definitively. Everyone is watching, looking for signs of weakness. Therefore, the rulers of Israel see as the only alternative to make a show of force and total lack of scruples, absolute cruelty, to once again tip the balance towards their side. It's a shitty dynamic, but the alternative is to leave. His enemies will take any sign of mercy as weakness. Israel needs to show strength and brutality to be respected of better, feared, they are in a extremely difficult situation, they can't show weakness. Think about the bombing of Hamburg by the British. They launched bombs with a extra weight that made them pierce the buildings and spread their load of phosphorus to burn their inhabitants alive. English engineers made that design to kill civilians, to force Hitler to surrender. There were children, elderly people, etc. in those buildings. That's war, the human dynamic more ugly, but very common. The thing is, if you don't dare with war, other people will do Edited March 4 by Breakingthewall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a group mate, not a person. That's like me personifying the UK as a she-devil, that dominated 1/3 of the world, only country with anti slavery policies, and the one woman with the bald eagle who set up an Israel state to trap the nomads into one place next to several theocratic Muslim states knowing it'll lead to continuous friction between the more liberalist/democratic western Israel versus the several theocratic Islam societies. Don't attack me, ask Osho what his takes are. Edited March 4 by Danioover9000 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Without having a moral legitimacy such strategies don't work long term. Israel has officially set itself up as an enemy for billions of people around the world.

Moral legitimacy is relative, you can debating about the right of Israel to occupy that land for years . The thing is that Israel fight for survival. Maybe at the end it will be destroyed, maybe no. And the end who wins is who is right Was mao Zedong good or bad? Or the french revolution, or anything else?

Posted March 4 (edited) @linaA normal human with compassion will stand against what Israel is doing in Palestine. In the future, there will be tons of documentaries made about how world leaders / Media were mere spectators when this was being done. The brutality is unimaginable. This was played sometime back in Iraq where more than 1 million people have lost their lives. Many Jews openly oppose what their country is doing to Palestine but the media is so one-sided & that they have spread deep hatred/negativity to a level that the killing of humans who belong to a particular religion is being celebrated by some people across the globe now (The number of people joining them will increase in future). We saw this happening during the Hitler era when Germans were presented with propaganda through various channels that common Germans started seeing the Jewish community with immense hatred. Now the same thing is happening all over the world. The solution that I can understand at my level of understanding is that Muslims have to first stand up against radical ideas within their community because most of them don't agree with that idea. Once this is being done they have to unite with people (across the religions; countries ; cultures etc) to stand against the bullies. Edit : The above points trigger some people here as their view against Islam were rigid. For them start reading some Sufi's for example : Ahmed Hulusi ; Rumi . The list goes on. In spirituality love & compassion are the most brutal understandings to be conquered after multiple insights because they go so deep where human understanding is shattered. From the Foreign policy side. See the below video which gives insight into this game. It doesn't contain how deep this goes but just a glimpse into how the game is played at the top level. (FYI : The video was posted when war was just started) Now coming back to spirituality when you go deeper and articulate it into words. The one force / God had created humans with ego which is a tool to survive and thrive but we have gone into a hellish realm of ego where we are just going on eating & eating then vomiting and again going back to eating. Not understanding that too much eating is the problem leading to vomiting. Another example would be at the beach a group of children were making sandcastles. Now when the time came to go home & parents were calling them out as it was going dark. The children were not ready to leave as their minds had imprinted the sandcastle as their home.

I think it would be better be realistic and admit that Israel exist. The other option is being eternally offended and full of hate and aim to the destruction, that is what the Muslims have been done all those 100 years.

Posted March 4 (edited) @BreakingthewallJust taking one sentence out of an entire paragraph and quoting it here is not the best way to debate. First, broaden your horizon & leave the field of narrow-mindedness. Edit : The paragraph is now elaborated to avoid any narrow perspective to arise.

Posted March 4 I’m sure everyone has seen the Kamala video calling for a ceasefire, just for the next 6 weeks, not a permanent one. 👀 she is just trying to get votes for when Biden steps down for 2024 and she is the potential nominee. She tries to sound and speak like Obama, i find it creepy. Liked her initially, but doubt she could beat trump. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
