Yes, it is completely ahistorical - if you buy in to the blessed Zionist narrative, that is. > The British famously backed the Palestinians No, the British backed the Jordanians, not the Palestinians. Jordan had its own goals as I allude

Oh, I was never interested in arguing with you at all given how you decided to start off this conversation. I was just pointing out that you can always respond and demonstrate your brilliance to readers of the thread.

Nah, cultural erasure. The best food Israelis could come up without “inspiration” is bamba. You would think all the “brilliance” would result in some original food lol.

Read up on the election here, tired of responding in this thread: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_Palestinian_legislative_e... On rocket attacks, Hamas was sticking relatively well to the ceasefire (again, talking a

Feel free to respond where you disagree for the benefit of those reading the thread. Btw, linking to a wiki page does not reflect any knowledge on your part. By not engaging with your own words, it is fair to default to assuming that you ha

Wrong. Try again, anon.

What do you mean by “back”? The West Bank was never legitimately part of Jordan - they forcibly annexed it in 1948. As for the peace treaties: Jordan simply did not have the ability to fight Israel any longer, or to deal with Palestinian fa

That’s not what happened. You (unintentionally I am sure) glossed over the elections being overruled by the US and Israel, the attempted coup by Fatah in Gaza, and the subsequent blockade.

The point is that they were never in danger of being wiped out.

Hmm is this really the best ragebait you could come up with from behind a throwaway?

Okay, and? Do you think the fact that neighbors having their own expansionist ambitions is somehow a “gotcha”? And given the whole Greater Israel plan, do you seriously think that Israel would have even allowed this to happen? Now, back to

No, Israel has never been seriously threatened with elimination. Even in 1948, they were militarily superior and more organized than all of their neighbors. They in fact proved this in 1967. But they sure love to claim that they were at the

You’re either missing my point or deflecting. Let me expand one last time. Israel claims to be threatened by its neighbors. Israel claims to want peace with countries in the region. Neighboring countries have repeatedly stated that a precon

Okay, and what percentage of those who moved to Israel were from Levantine countries?
165.
by Cyph0n 8mo ago
I mean, Israeli historians corroborated Plan Dalet, but sure, let’s call it a conspiracy. I am going to stop responding here.

Are we talking “from” as in 3000 years ago, or “from” as in sometime in not ancient history? Are Japanese people “from” China? Is Japanese cuisine therefore part of Chinese or Korean cuisine?

by Cyph0n 8mo ago
So the solution is for Israel to get an even bigger “stick” than nuclear weapons? How about a just solution for the Palestinians instead?
168.
by Cyph0n 8mo ago
No, but stealing cuisine is a form of cultural erasure, particularly when it applies to Palestinian cuisine.

Israel is not a Levantine country. It will only be one if it becomes one democratic state with equal rights for all.

by Cyph0n 8mo ago
At what point in its history was Israel ever in actual danger of being “genocided”? This rhetoric circles back to the self-victimization complex btw.

Step 1: A Holocaust perpetrated by Germany, not Palestine. Step 2: Build a country out of Lego- I mean, gradually settle an existing, populated area of the Levant - Palestine - and then have daddy Britain and later big daddy USA forcibly ca

Wow thanks for the pointer, I had no idea! Eye opening stuff!

Surrounded by enemies of their own creation. It’s a beautiful cycle of aggression and self-victimization; a true ouroboros. On the intelligence front, Mossad does a wonderful job performing extra-judicial killings using the dirtiest tricks

Heh, “obsession”, as if Israel has been doing absolutely nothing of interest for the past two years. Not to mention its blatant involvement in the domestic US political scene via AIPAC and friends.

A thanks from me too! I do not use Arch, but still use the wiki as a primary reference to understand various tools. Two recent examples were CUPS and SANE: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/CUPS https://wiki.

Pedantry at its finest. The UK is European and you know it - regardless of the technicalities. Since you’re a pedant, look at what Germany is doing in this same area.

Sure, but I am talking about government-mandated surveillance through legislation. Also, your police aren’t afraid to go the extra mile to quash dissent. Look at what’s happening in the UK for example with Palestine Action. The only differe
