I’m talking about drawing a false romantic narrative of an uprising of the people, when the reality is it’s just terror.
Lets call it a Terroristic Uprising, more suiting.
- ambrozk 5y agoI will repeat what I said, which is that this is rhetorical point-scoring, not discussion of reality. It's not helpful. Everyone with two neurons to rub together understands that both the Palestinians and the Israelis have engaged in terror against one another over the course of a century of inter-ethnic conflict.
- talhof8 5y agoNone of the comments here are helpful. You could call it however you like, rhetorical point-scoring or not, to the vast majority of people who read the word “uprising” it comes off as this romantic movement of liberation. As an Israeli this bothers me. Needles to say it bothers me even more when Israelis do this towards the other side. For me, this is very much a reality and not just a “words game”. BTW, this is not to say I agree with this law.
