Again, ad hominem. Let me teach you a little bit about Israel. 20% Arabs with same rights as Jews, with government representation. 50% of Jews in Israel come from Arab countries (they were ethnically cleansed from their home countries) so t

Yeah I did. I have friends that lost family from these terror attacks. Twice while on a date with my wife at our local bar we had to flee because of a Palestinian started shooting random people in the street. I had the luck to have a birthd

Well, if we’re being pedantic, you stated that the war is the Palestinian holocaust, I asked if other conflicts with much higher casualty count would be also considered. But if we want to continue this thread it appears that most wars in ur

Well, what is your standard for holocaust?

How is this whataboutism? He said that Israel is not a target of terror attacks. In response I provided a list of terror attacks against Israel, this is exactly on topic

I pointed out the error in his post, everybody else is “what-about”ing at me in response.

But that makes sense, as the OP said, oct 7th was a huge terror attack that was live-streamed and shared throughout all social media. Hamas filmed themselves on Facebook live doing horrific acts, and people shared and cheered. So obviously

Before the state of Israel, Jewish groups were bombing British mandate offices. Not civilians, and definitely not on purpose. But I’m trying to understand your logic. Attacking innocent civilians is legitimate if your goal is to establish

You didn’t answer my question

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Palestinian_suicide_... Would you say that this list is incorrect? Or that any attack on civilians in Israel is justified and thus not a terrorist attack?

Agreed, as an Israeli Jew, them saying that Jews don’t work on Shabbat there shouldn’t be reports on the 7th, shows so much their lack of objectivity, ignorance and the will to connect random points together. Do they think that the police i

Right, the government which I voted for in 2021 in a democratic and free election, composed of entirely secular Jewish parties, and included an Arabic party as part of the coalition, that’s an example for a theocratic government.

Well, Israel successfully won several wars without the US support in its early years. And right now the Israeli weapons manufacturers are booming, look at deals with the romania and Germany. Its great that most people don’t have problem wit

Might I inquire on the disagreement? A civil discussion is always interesting

Learn history, we already did. Independence Day and six days war was without American support against Egypt Jordan Syria and Lebanon. We won.

So where can a Jewish state be established without removing the local population? And regarding some history on the establishment of Israel, after the UN partition resolution the Arabs started a civil war, where Arabs fled from Jewish terri

Ideally? Palestinian accepting the existence of Israel, foregoing their demands for the right to return and East Jerusalem, and then we can peacefully coexist. Realistically? Maintaining strong border security, erect more walls, prevent Pal

My point was that even without American support, Israel won its wars.

Countries are not owed, they are either won, or given, in every instance of every county in history. Which is exactly how Israel came to be. No one is questioning the existence of Bulgaria as a separate entity from turkey, when they declare

I presume you misunderstand the purpose of the Jewish state. It’s not to protect Jews living in europe from persecution, it’s to provide a safe haven from persecution. Without site they have no where to go when things get bad. And things to

Are you talking about native Americans? Germans that used to live in Poland? Jews that used to live in Syria? Israelis that lived in Sinai before it was returned to Egypt? Mexicans that lived Texas? Australian aboriginals? Inuits in Canada?

Sorry, they only beheaded Thai agriculture workers (they did kill and kidnap babies https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kidnapping_and_killing_of_th... ). Don’t remember Jews in 1937 doing that.

What are you talking about? the original commenter rejected the idea of a Jewish state because ethno states are bad. I made a counter claim. I’d be happy to live next to a Palestinian country, if it will recognize Israel as a Jewish state,

Research Israel’s independence war where Czechoslovakia contributed arms. It wasn’t until Nixon that Israel had American support.

Palestinian are not ethno nationalists, they are a theocracy. And as a secular Israeli I would really not like to live under one.

How about unconditional release of the hostages?

Is there a movement for native Americans sovereignty?

Jews were kicked out of all the Arab nations they lived in, were persecuted in Europe, and you think that they shouldn’t get a sovereign country for themselves? Should the Kurds get one? Tibetans? Catalonias? Scottish?
