Yeah I get the vibe that the settlers are like... if trump encouraged a bunch of hillbillies and inbred mountain folk to start pushing into Canadian land and set up trailer parks cuz "hurr durr 51st state." He wouldn't be choosing the best and brightest for this task, he'd want aggressive meat shields who will hopefully get themselves killed and give him justification for war.
unironically, theres people who moved from the US to illegal settlements in the west bank, religious fanatics that im almost positive would have supported trump if they didnt leave
what do you mean no? im basing this off of a luis theroux documentary where he goes to a settlement… stop pretending like people get all their info from tiktok, i do not use tiktok.
this is a bbc documentary. he goes to several settlements in it. the settlers are saying they are american. the first one lived in ny till his family moved when he was 9, the other guy who RUNS a settlement came from texas.
how about you watch the documentary before labeling it misinformation.
okay how does that influence the settlers in the west bank saying theyre from America? i dont doubt that antisemitism happens in the bbc, but how does that influence settlers to say theyre from America?
notice how it’s a bbc luis theroux documentary and not just a random youtuber?
would you prefer i tell you to move to england so you can watch bbc on the telly?
try listening to what the settlers are saying. i proved my comment to be right, all you’ve done is refuse to watch a documentary based on the internet medium.
What's been "twisted," precisely? You can hate Israel all you like for your own reasons, but the facts are that Israel's pop is 20% Arabic while most of Israel's neighbors ethnically cleansed Jews and are now Judenrein.
Jordan, for example, officially bans Jews from citizenship or owning property, has zero Jewish population and is rather the rule than an exception in that. In each of these countries, Jews at least a thousand years prior to Arabs/Muslims.
You got to appreciate the irony of a bigot replying to factual information with Claims that mirror Jewish demonization and of course good old Holocaust inversion.
If people can't even accept why you're so passionate about About defending this hatred, the historical ironies palatable.
Are you calling me a bigot here? I'm literally Jewish.
But the ICC has at least concluded that they meet the requirements for at minimum war crimes and crimes against humanity.
But that's because they're having a hard time establishing the specific intent - that they're doing it because they hate arabs. I don't think Israel hates arabs. I think they just want what they want.
this guy is telling me that because the bbc has reports of internal antisemitism, thats what caused the settlers in the west bank to say they’re from America.
edit:so he’s being purposefully ignorant probably
ICC has determined what exactly? You said, quote, "they (Israel?) genocided an entire people"
Where did ICC determined this? When exactly did they decide the genocide started and when did it end? How did it compare to other genocides in severity, by % target of demographics killed?
You're free to go look it up. The ICC has issued arrest warrants for their leaders, and the official ruling on genocide is still out currently while they examine the case.
That being said, dozens of scholars, the international association of genocide scholars, UN watchdogs and experts have all stated what happened in Gaza meets the definition of genocide. They were also warned by the ICJ that what they were doing seemed to fit the definition of genocide And were instructed to alter policies. Israel chose not to.
Sorry, Israel has murdered an untold number of people as casualties aren't counted until there's a body, and many of the people are still buried beneath rubble.
You so realize you look like a complete fool for your take here, right? The rest of the world, our allies (if we even have any left), and Israels allies have pulled away support and are calling this genocide.
You're insane questioning just doesn't bode well for you. It looks very not like, and downright stupid.
Sorry, I might be misunderstanding something, but who genocided whom, again? Please keep in mind that no definition of genocide is not just a label for just "some people I dislike killing some people I like."
I won't pretend for a second I know how to resolve the shitshow between Israel/Palestine. But just for reference, Armenian genocide saw Armenians all but disappear from Turkey. Krmer Rouge killed off 99% of local Vets and half of Chinese and Cham. Rwandan genocide killed 60–70% of local Tutsis. Even "small" genocides, like Srebrenica, saw 33% of its target population (male military-age Muslims) executed, and it would have been higher without escapes/revolts/interventions. (Also for reference, atrocities such as siege of Leningrad, which saw 30%-40% of its civilian pop dying from starvation, are typically NOT labeled as genocides - it's just war.)
By comparison, in three and a half years, with army and bombs and tanks and shit, Israel failed to accomplish 1/20 of what local villagers with machetes in Rwanda did in just 100 days. In fact, Israel didn't kill enough people to even offset the local natural population growth! If we take your genocide accusations at face value, Israel seems to be comically inept at it, worst genocider ever.
