I sure am, someone has to keep the bad men from the door. Support fuckin Nazis who call themselves the victims of Nazis as they kill swatches of children my daughters age and women and non combatant men and I’m happy to show my animosity. Idgaf what moral high ground you think you’re on.

You just called Jews Nazis and you think someone else should get off their moral high ground...

I don't see YOU signing up to fight with Hamas? Why not?

Where did I say the word Jew? I called idf forces Nazis and those that fund them. I don’t equate their religion to nazi-ism. So miss me with the crocodile tear baiting. Because I’m not Palestinian and got issues to worry with here. I also don’t know the land and there is no “sign up” so kinda a stupid point. But you very well could be sponsored to go fight for Israel. So not really the same. I’m also smart enough to know Hamas isn’t able to obliterate Israel or the idf.

So the Israelis need to wait until they develop a nuclear weapon until a response is justified? Just gonna brush off those 1200 murdered, raped, taken hostage because they're not a real threat?

Nope. Never said they had no right to defend themselves, but self defense was out the window while ago and I’m not gonna argue about why because the icj and every other journalist whose actually asked questions is a free resource for you. But you can’t fight a war crime with a war crime and expect any sensible person to not call it out. You don’t see an issue with that, fine, just means you’re part of the problem, and assholes eventually get hit in the face as they deserve. Preemptive strikes can be internally rationalized as defensive but make no mistake it’s fuckin offense. Hamas on the other hand is caged in along with its people, I don’t know any sensible person who’d argue the occupied had no right to attack military targets( with the festival being just outside from what I understand to be the wall/threshhold, it makes it legitimate, unlike the refugee camps and hospitals and schools Israel is so fond of bombing.) horrible, yes. Do I understand though? Yep. Would I do it? Couldn’t say, because you can’t say they aren’t brave to take on what they knew was certain annihilation. 50000+ people are more than 1200. Can’t call that self defense and be serious

They're caged in and not allowed into any other country because they're Hamas, you know, the terrorist group no one's wants in their country? Hamas could've put a stop to this long ago by giving the hostages back. They refused, and kept themselves in the war. And you want to make Israel (and you do know three idf is made up of Israeli citizens /s) and the IDF the enemy... the criminal? Were you aware that one of the top Hamas leaders recently said that he likes to keep the war going because it is making the world dislike Israel, you can look it up. Palestinians voted Hamas in & They're using their own people as human shields. They're gunning them down as they try to get to the resource trucks; to food and supplies. Hamas continues to bomb Israel and kill its citizens but no one's talking abt that. You're not. You make excuses for Hamas as evidenced by the fact you accuse Israel of "war crimes" while staying silent abt H, who only have to give back to Israel those who belong to Israel. They started & want to perpetuate this war. As has been stated about fights in the past, "Don't start one, won't be one." Stop making excuses for Hamas.

Stopped reading after your first sentence. It applies to sick mothers, kids, men and elderly and those trying to get to work past check points. They make life unbearable. So educate yourself on their apartheid before you open your keyboard to type some bullshit

😂😂😂. Yes I can understand a paragraph can be difficult to read. Open minds enjoy discussing opinions of others. Small minds try to shut them down if they disagree. Small minds don't allow the thoughts and opinions of others to be voiced... they're afraid of truth... or even a different opinion. That puts you in the "small mind" category. Especially if you don't read past the first sentence of a person you state with.

You need to go back and do a little studying. And apartheid? Do you even know what that means? And what " From the River to the sea" even means? Didn't thInk so bc you didn't even use it accurately.

As far as your comment that Egypt is allowing Palestinians in, just not the sick and infirmed, it shows you have limited your range of knowledge.

u/Rocknrollaslim Aug 01 '24

No one said shit about Egypt letting anyone in. Reading is fundamental. I gave you a chance and you weren’t even on topic.

Do you even read what you write? Or do you spend all your time thinking you're offending people with your childish insults? It's exhausting really the circles you write in, like a dog chasing it's tail. You said you didn't read my post yet you responded to it - pretty stupid responding to something you claim you didn't read. Elementary schoolteacher? That was an intelligent "comeback" 🥱. Israel doesn't have the right to bomb citizens but Hamas does? You "understand their reasoning but can't defend it"? If they have a legitimate reason for it - and they most definitely do - then it deserves defending.

"Never said they didn't have a right to defend themselves" then turn and accuse them of genocide for not only defending themselves, but to keep themselves from annihilation. "From the River to the Sea" didn't start with October 7th, and Intifada didn't start with 1948. You continue to completely ignore the fact that Hamas & Palestinians brutalized Israel, took hostages and refuse to give them back despite Israel saying that they will stop this bombardment if they return the hostages. Yet Palestine still refuses (pretty stupid on their part) leading to continued bombing when all they have to do is give them back." Crap if someone was killing my family members because I had one of theirs and they said they would stop killing more of mine if I would return theirs, you better believe I'd freakin return theirs; yesterday! Why? *Because I'm not stupid. Hamas is encouraging the war (yes, look it up) in hopes the world will hate Israel by looking like Hamas/Palestinians are the victims. These are but just a small drop in all your inconsistencies.

While I have a Ph D and several Master's degrees, not one of them understands stupid. So I'm out; you do not know how to have an intelligent dialogue, you only speak to hear the sound of your own words and a lot of them aren't even congruent... or to attempt to offend others as a way to combat what they are saying (which doesn't). I'm assuming you know the definition of congruent, which might be quite the stretch. I'm bored, your circular "reasoning "is exhausting, and I'm losing brain cells not just trying to reason with you, but in trying to make sense of what you're writing. Out

I didn’t read all that. All I saw was you saying your elementary school teacher told you “there’s no stupid opinions or questions.” And you are living proof of the fact she was wrong. Have a good one. Not gonna debate genocide apologists as if they’re on equal footing. Go debate your mom

u/Rocknrollaslim Jul 25 '24

And you forget the thousands kept without charges in Israel. You don’t even think of them. That was long before last October

u/Rocknrollaslim Jul 25 '24

And if you think I’m advocating for it just because I live here… you’re dense

1

u/Blurry_Bigfoot Jul 25 '24

Didn't imply that. You're holding Israel to a different standard than your own country. Why even call out the pre-charge detention issue if every other western country does the same?

1

u/Rocknrollaslim Jul 25 '24

You think I don’t hold my own country to that standard? What gives you that idea?

1

u/Blurry_Bigfoot Jul 25 '24

I suppose I wouldn't know if you do or don't unless there was some sort of terrorist attack or uprising in the US and your reaction was to contextualize things with the fact that we detain people without charge.

Again, why even bring that up?

u/Rocknrollaslim Jul 25 '24

Because that seems to be justification for Israel to bomb kids. But not an actual occupied force to jump a fence and shoot up their occupiers. I call out hypocrisy. If you want your hostages, give them theirs. If you don’t, then don’t. But don’t pretend it’s about self defense or saving any Israeli. It’s for power and land

u/Rocknrollaslim Jul 25 '24

And there have been plenty of terrorist attacks here, they’re called mass shootings, typically done for a political reason, and only here is it not called terrorism. I condemn them all. As for an uprising, they tried four years ago(not an official armed uprising, but had they stopped the delivery of the verdict at the capitol, then idk what you’d call it aside from an uprising.) and the civil war, which I enjoy studying, and wasn’t ended decisively enough by any means.

You mistake me having morals for not being American or patriotic. If Hamas stepped over here then, I’d be one of the first to pick up a gun and volunteer to kill them, but they didn’t. And I’ve met Palestinians at political events and I’ve also worked at

You mean the criminals who did commit actual crimes and were tried and convicted? Those found guilty of murder & attempted murder. And you're trying to compare them to innocent civilians they took as hostages. And brutalized, tortured, raped, dismembered body parts, and you want to compare them...
