My point is it's not non-violent, as the point of the "protest" was threatening the same violence as happened on 7th of October - and, as it was organized by Hamas, potentially distracting IDF in order to commit actual violen

Islamic terrorism has roots in Arab nationalism that has risen after collapse of Ottoman Empire. Sure, you can see the fall of Ottoman Empire as a result of Western foreign policy, but even late Ottoman Empire was not such a peaceful place,

Being located in the Middle East is their main mistake. Being a Jewish state in the Middle East makes it even worse.

Seeing what happened on 7th of October one can understand why IDF is nervous about people getting close (500m is the official buffer zone as I understand) to the fence. Not implying that competition in number of knees shot is justified.

That is kind of how occupation works? But that was not my point. My point is that if you wage an aggressive war, you deserve being occupied. Like Germany, Japan, Serbia or Iraq. And the way out of occupation is to convince your neighbours t

I think this position is a small minority in the public opinion, and is virtually non-existent in Arab countries. It doesn't help that moderate supporters of two state solution make little effort to distance themselves from the "f

It is a right. But if your state attacks another state and loses, you are going to be occupied, tough luck, consider not attacking anyone next time. Israel was established by consent of the legal owner of Palestine that day, British Empire,

If you declare war on someone, you should prepare to be occupied if you lose. The fair way out of occupation is a sustainable peace guaranteeing safe existence to Israel. And it requires a lot of good will from Arab population in both Pales

I assume 14th May of 1948 when British rule over Palestine ended.

Yeah, but since it won't stop otherwise either, it's better for Israel to maintain stronger military position, which occupation provides, rather than making unilateral gestures in the faint hope for peace.

It is about people. Jews have right for their own state and the right to defend it.

I don't know a single country - including Israel's closest allies - that says that occupation of West Bank is acceptable.

No state will tolerate a hostile army near its borders. But if representatives of Gaza/West Bank recognized Israel and made a peace agreement with delineated borders - they would have their army like any other government. Today it soun

There was no reason so far to believe that "Palestinian resistance" will end if Israel leaves the occupied territories. In fact these territories were occupied during an attempt by Arabic population to destroy Israel - which didn&

Anti-Zionism is asserting that the Jewish state should not exist in the land of Israel. It _is_ antisemitism. You can criticize current Israeli government and it's certain actions, while acknowledging Israel's right to exist and d

I don't think a minor deduplication justifies a separate discussion even before a single line is changed. That would make a huge deal out of it and waste everyone's time. I wouldn't probably make a separate PR for that - just

Just from reading the linked pages, looks like they did't have any clear governance structure, tried to established one and failed due to sabotage from a person holding de-facto powers.

As a pastime, maybe. For a practitioner CLRS offers better value for time spent IMO, and is not devoid of mathematical rigor either.

Online versions of all German printed media do exactly the same, I wonder how it's going to be different. And $10 a month is not that much of an unreasonable fee compared to EU price level.
