this is why organized religion sucks. Its the root cause of so much human suffering throughout the ages

its funny how all these religions are based on principles of "peace"


We're just another species on this planet and we fight each other for the same reasons why other species fight each other. Resources and territory.

Religion is just what we came up with to justify our actions so we can shift the blame to someone else... lol...

[Hondaracer]

Religion killed more people than all wars combined. It’s also used for justification or at least the coverup for the most heinous of crimes. See: tens of thousands of molestations and child absurers from single sects of the Catholic Church ie. the Boston clergy etc.

Canada abstains from the UN resolution calling to withdraw from the West Bank

[whitev70r]

so what religions are at war in the Middle East right now? Or in Russia & Ukraine.

Netanyahu is the least religious 'Jew' there is. The age old conflict in the Middle East has gone way past 'religion'. Some Jews I know are the most secular people I know. It's mostly culture, race, and ethnicity imo.

I have to agree, this is terrorism by Israel. Funny though it doesn't sound like Hezbollah is coming out and calling it that. There's going to be a tit for tat response from them.

I know you guys are all calling Israel out for killing lots of civilians in Palestine, but I have less sympathy for Palestinians because the people elected Hamas to govern Palestine. The people you elected and endorsed start shit and you reap what you sow. Before the whole music festival attack, things were tense but nothing major was happening.

[pastarocket]

-listened to City News1130 this morning during my commute to work about this conflict.

A former CIA operative was interviewed about the Israeli conflict with Hezbollah.

He thinks that all these attacks involving pagers and walkie talkies are just a precursor to wider scale war.

That operative thinks that Israel will launch a ground offensive against Hezbollah.

Things are about to escalate between the IDF and Hezbollah.

[whitev70r]

I think it's already started ... the bombing into Southern Lebanon & Hezbollah.

Yah, the devices were probably strategically phase 1 ... Israel will call it a 'pre-emptive' strike to prevent terrorist attacks on Israel.

A) the 15000 or so dead children didn't vote for them
B) the only reason Hamas is in power was because they would fight against the illegal occupation and evictions that Israel has been doing for decades as they pushed Palestinians into areas that are maybe 1/20th of the land that was rightfully theirs.

SCMP is right to call it terrorism this time. However, in general, I am very skeptical of many viewpoints that SCMP is holding now, esp this editor dude Yoden Lhatoo.

For many years now, SCMP has become very pro-China, and a lot of their views are just biased. It has almost reached the point of "China good", "western countries bad" sort of level. They also have a tendency to paint a really rosy picture of anything China-related, so I wouldn't consider them to be an impartial news media at all.

DW, on the other hand, is very good. Always insightful, and they always get subject matter experts to share their views.

[whitev70r]

To drink the 'China is great' koolaid and a different take on world news outside of China, SMCP is not bad.

This argument has to stop being parroted, as it's wildly untrue.

Guess when the last election was had in Palestine? 2006.

The median age in Palestine is 20.

That means the average person in Palestine during the last election was 2 years old, meaning most people in Palestine currently did not vote for Hamas. Not only that, voter turnout back then was abysmal at best back then.

To make that argument sound even more ridiculous would be to say Americans today (who were not of voting age in the year 2000) are guilty of supporting the Iraq War because George W was voted in back in 2000.

It's a completely stupid argument that carries no value when you actually think about it.

He continued saying "Gaza was on the brink of collapse because they had no resources, they had no money, and the PA refused to give Hamas any money. Bibi saved them. Bibi made a deal with Qatar and they started to move millions and millions of dollars to Gaza."

I didn't show support for Israel in any way. Your question is why Canada or USA are letting them do this. The answer is they are allied. You can fucking google it if you want.

Oh yea they are an amazing ally. They’ve helped Canada so much.

It’s antisemitism to question why the western world allows 10,000 children to be killed? lol the answer is there are powerful Jews in positions where they out pressure on politicians and are influential in American and European politics.

Same reason why Trump and Kamala spend huge section of their “social” agendas on “antisemitism” when Jewish people make up 2% of the US population.

There’s probably more Haitians in the US than Jews, but they spend 75% of their social discussion on antisemitism? Lol gee I wonder why

Seems a bit extreme to call out like that tho? I mean, I hold similar views over what Israel is doing and questioning western country support of them... I would think leadership in both Canada and USA are doing the same internally as they should be. Ally or not, those relationship status tags should always be under review and not just a given.

That said I mostly keep my mouth shut because to be honest, I don't really understand the intricacies of the region... I just don't think what Israel is doing is very genuine or... well... necessary? Escalation and attacks are not a positive way forward toward anything that's going to be healthy for the region.

There's nothing wrong with questioning why your country has anything to do with them, going back 100 years, especially if you don't really understand the intricacies (I don't either).

But to go straight to "Jews rule the world" is questionable behavior (and the reason he comes across as having a "layman's opinion" if you take his posts at face value is because he's using dog whistles rather than stating it outright, which is what I am calling out). Because you know the people who spout that shit off also tend to have some even more questionable views.

This, some people's thinking is so simplistic ... historic ally means nations must support them no matter what the hell they do ... uh no. It's obvious that UK, Canada, US are all calling Israel out for causing shit.

[Badhobz]

All my friends do dumb shit. I should go bomb them…

At least by attacking Yemen it might restore global trade as right now everyone is taking the long route around the cape instead of using the suez. Lower freight costs means cheaper goods for everyone (less profits for me though….)

[EvoFire]

This is a layman's opinion. Israel was warned by the US something was happening, but not sure about what.

Israel chose to not do anything about it. Yes the kind of intelligence is very different, but I very much doubt that if Israel has the ability to flex and yell a proverbial FUCK YOU everyone involved in the region by a very accurate targeted bombing Hezbollah leadership, they sure as hell knew something was coming.

My view is Israel was just hoping for something over the line to happen and not just a few rockets, so they can start some shit.

Skinny called me out for blaming a dictatorship's ppl for the actions of a government that they had no chance in making a decision on. My view is the Palestine ppl are complicit with Hamas, and even support it. I do feel like Israel probably has a similar sentiment based on the rather lopsided actions in both Gaza against Hamas and in Lebanon against Hezbollah. They have the ability and intelligence, and can totally do a targeted strike but chose not to.

Of course there's also the issue of not escalating with Lebanon, and not alienating a much larger population into supporting a war.

For all the calling Israel out by Western allies, Israel has continued to escalate the situation in the ME though, which means none of the calling out actually made any difference.

Gaza is little more than a pile of rubble now, and even though Israel claims they are winding down their Gaza operations now, I have no doubt that Israel (or maybe just Netanyahu?) would rather just flatten Gaza into a completely lifeless zone.

If I have friends that continue to do dumb shxt and beat up on little kids / people half his size, you bet I will dump his a$$ and cut our friendship off even if we go way back.

Western "allies" really need to re-think their relationship with Israel, or at least with just Netanyahu. Maybe stir up some political shxt in Israel and drag him out of office so that his murderous fxxker can stop trying his best to start WW3?

[Hondaracer]

Canada and the US just recently abstained from the vote at the UN which passed unanimously to withdraw from the Gaza Strip essentially due to the “wording” placing blame on Israel for its current state, but let’s face it, they support the destruction.

Also great article here outlining the biggest congressional supporters of Israel in Nancy Pelosi and Trump

https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/2021/5/18/short-answer-why-is-the-united-states-so-pro-israel

Virtually every article you will find regarding the US’s “unwavering support” or Israel leads back to political influence.

People like Pelosi and Trump have -never- been motivated by power or money though.

Harris and Biden are right there too. In fact it could cause trouble for Harris because the more far left people will never vote Democrat because of it, while the more far right someone is, the more likely they'll vote Trump

Shit might really hit the fan soon if Iran launches a ballistic missile attack on Israel.

The Americans know that an attack on Israel is imminent.

From CNN:

Potential Iranian ballistic missile attack on Israel could be very costly for Tehran regime, analyst says

From CNN's Nadeen Ebrahim

A potential ballistic missile attack by Iran on Israel could “cost the regime its head,” an Iran expert said, especially if the attack is carried out as a last-ditch effort to save face.

“Resorting to another direct missile attack on Israel would mean the regime (in Tehran) sees itself in more dire straits that Iranian officials acknowledge,” Behnam Ben Taleblu, a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD) think tank in Washington, DC, told CNN. He added that an attack could “easily beget a larger regional war” as Israel would likely respond much more forcefully than it did in April, when Iran fired an onslaught of drones and missiles toward Israel.

“A missile strike merely for the purpose of saving face could easily end up costing the regime its head,” Ben Taleblu said.


The White House on Tuesday said the United States believes Iran is preparing an imminent ballistic missile attack against Israel, and Washington is actively preparing to support Israel against such an attack. The US also warned that an attack of the kind would “carry severe consequences for Iran.”

Ben Taleblu said that should an Iranian attack take place, much of the region’s fate would hinge on how Washington responds, “which has been essentially absent from the past few game-changing weeks in the Middle East.” He also noted that Iran has the largest missile arsenal in the region.

From CNN's Jennifer Hansler
The Iranian Mission to the United Nations said Tuesday afternoon that Tehran’s response has “been duly carried out,” following a barrage of missiles launched at Israel.

“Iran’s legal, rational, and legitimate response to the terrorist acts of the Zionist regime—which involved targeting Iranian nationals and interests and infringing upon the national sovereignty of the Islamic Republic of Iran—has been duly carried out,” the Permanent Mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations said in a post on X.

The mission said that if Israel should “dare to respond or commit further acts of malevolence, a subsequent and crushing response will ensue.”

The mission added that “regional states and the Zionists’ supporters are advised to part ways with the regime.”

I think that Iran is gonna watch closely to see if the Israeli's retaliate with a big show of military force. If Israeli retaliates, then Iran's leaders might escalate the conflict.

[mikemhg]

Iran has no interest in any full on war. They've made that pretty clear, and its become tiring that rhetoric Israel/US have been trying to push about them wanting war.

Iran's little retaliatory missile attack is the equivalent of your buddy punching you in the arm and you having to get your "get back" without looking like a pussy.

The US and even Jordan are setting up their military on high alert in the Middle East now after the Iranians fired 180 missiles into Israel. IDF confirmed about 180 missiles were fired into Israel.

The Americans are sending more soldiers for deployment. Jordanian military is on high alert.

The big question is how will Israel respond to the missile attacks.
The IDF will not let this go.

They don't think this missile attack is the equivalent of a guy punching you in the arm. -sounds more like a jab in the face if we are using hand to hand combat analogy.

If the Iranians think that Israel is gonna let this go with just some verbal threats, they are gonna be mistaken.

It's up to the Americans to talk to the Israeli PM and his security cabinet in order to determine what kind of military response would be adequate enough to respond to Iraq without escalating the conflict even more.

CNN:

Miller echoed National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan in stating the US will coordinate with Israel on its response to the attack on Israel, calling it “a significant escalation.” He also pledged that there would be consequences.

“Of course there must be consequences for Iran for this attack. We’ve made clear that there must be consequences. I’m not going to get into what those consequences are today, but they are things on which we will be coordinating with our Israeli counterparts,” Miller said at a press briefing Tuesday.

The Americans are sending more soldiers for deployment. Jordanian military is on high alert.

The big question is how will Israel respond to the missile attacks.
The IDF will not let this go.

They don't think this missile attack is the equivalent of a guy punching you in the arm. -sounds more like a jab in the face if we are using hand to hand combat analogy.

If the Iranians think that Israel is gonna let this go with just some verbal threats, they are gonna be mistaken.

It's up to the Americans to talk to the Israeli PM and his security cabinet in order to determine what kind of military response would be adequate enough to respond to Iraq without escalating the conflict even more.

CNN:

Miller echoed National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan in stating the US will coordinate with Israel on its response to the attack on Israel, calling it “a significant escalation.” He also pledged that there would be consequences.

“Of course there must be consequences for Iran for this attack. We’ve made clear that there must be consequences. I’m not going to get into what those consequences are today, but they are things on which we will be coordinating with our Israeli counterparts,” Miller said at a press briefing Tuesday.

Didn't Iran already "attack" Israel back in April 2024? What's the retaliation for that by Israel?

You mean Israel attacking Iran.

April 1st. No April Fool's joke at all. Iran blames the IDF for killing some of their military commanders.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/01/middleeast/iran-syrian-consulate-attack-intl/index.html

Top Iranian military commanders were among the seven Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp (IRGC) officials killed in an airstrike on the country’s consulate building in Damascus, Syria, according to Iranian officials and state-affiliated media, which blamed Israel for the attack.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry said that senior IRGC commander Mohammed Reza Zahedi was killed in the attack. Haji Rahimi was named as the second commander killed in the attack, according to the IRGC statement shared by state news agency IRNA later on Monday.

The IRGC statement named five other officials who were killed: Hossein Aman Elahi, Mehdi Jalalati, Mohsen Sedaghat, Ali Aghababaee, and Ali Salehi Roozbahani.

The US/Israel have been chomping at the bit for decades now to have a full-scale war with Iran, they just haven't had the political equity to have that supported by the public (hence blaming everything under the sun on Iran).

The reason I refer to their little missiles as a punch in the arm is because it is just that. Those missiles for the most part will be completely intercepted and destroyed by the iron dome, Iran knows full well their little volley will result in little to no damage on Israel.

This is all to save face to not appear weak doormats. Israel is doing everything within their power to goad them into doing something foolish to allow them to kick off a war, that's as clear as day.

They're like a school bully pushing a weak kid hit them back, once that kid hits back, it gives the bully every opportunity to then knock his head off.

No, I meant when Iran launched missiles, similar to today, as retaliation for the above on April 13.

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/iran-launches-drone-attack-israel-expected-unfold-over-hours-2024-04-13/

I remember hearing that Israel would retaliate back, but don't remember seeing any retaliation. However, now looking specifically for it, it looks like they did on April 18, but meh, it seemed pretty minor.

https://apnews.com/article/iran-israel-mideast-tensions-4-19-2024-a7ccbae2e2844bab089e8e4377a24ddb

I think the point that others are making, and I seem to agree with, is that these air strikes from Iran look like nothing but saying that hey, we did something, and that's enough. More like just saving face.

-interesting details from Bob Woodward's Book about behind the scenes conversations between Biden, Israeli PM Nentanyahu, and between Trump and Putin.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/08/politics/bob-woodward-book-war-joe-biden-putin-netanyahu-trump/index.html

Conversation between Biden and Benjamin Nentanyahu:

Bibi, you’ve got no strategy’

In the aftermath of the October 7, 2023, attack on Israel, Woodward describes the roller-coaster relationship between Biden and Netanyahu. While Biden supported Israel publicly, he fought with Netanyahu behind the scenes over how Israel was conducting the war in Gaza.

“What’s your strategy, man?” Biden asked Netanyahu during an April phone call, Woodward reports.

“We have to go into Rafah,” Netanyahu said.

“Bibi, you’ve got no strategy.” Biden responded.

That same month, Israel launched a strike in Syria that killed a top general in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, prompting Iran to launch more than 100 ballistic missiles in response, the first time that Iran had fired missiles from its territory directly at Israel.

The US, along with Saudi Arabia, Jordan and other US allies, came to IsraelÂ’s defense. While nearly all of the Iranian missiles were intercepted, Netanyahu wanted to retaliate.

Biden told Netanyahu on a call to “take the win,” though the Israeli prime minister pushed back. “You don’t need to make another move. Do nothing,” Biden said.

In the end, Israel launched a limited, calibrated strike against Iran, which Biden considered a win.

“I know he’s going to do something but the way I limit it is tell him to ‘Do nothing,” Biden told his advisers, according to Woodward.

But Bidens frustration with Netanyahu boiled over as the war continued to escalate.

“He’s a fucking liar,” Biden said privately of Netanyahu, after Israel went into Rafah, Woodward writes.

“Bibi, what the fuck?” Biden yelled at Netanyahu in July after an Israeli airstrike killed a top Hezbollah military commander and three civilians in Beirut, according to Woodward.

“You know the perception of Israel around the world increasingly is that you’re a rogue state, a rogue actor,” Biden said to Netanyahu.

Netanyahu responded that the target was “one of the leading terrorists.”

“We saw an opportunity and took it,” Netanyahu said. “The harder you hit, the more successful you’re going to be in the negotiation.”

GG. More attacks from Israel on Iran as retaliation

[westopher]

https://apple.news/AOtvDr95LRRu7ci_E2cWLQw
In their decision, the ICC judges said there were reasonable grounds to believe Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant were criminally responsible for acts including murder, persecution and starvation as a weapon of war as part of a "widespread and systematic attack against the civilian population of Gaza".

Netanyahu's office said the ICC decision was "antisemitic"

LOL surprise surprise.

[whitev70r]

Yah, one constructive or critical comment on Israel and it's the Anti-Semitic victim card. :okay:

[Traum]

I wonder what the general sentiments of Jewish people living outside of Israel are about the ICC arrest warrant and war crimes accusations for Netanyahu and Gallant.

[Badhobz]

hey! hes in the same class as putin now. what great company

[whitev70r]

Welp ... it's over ... presumably. Ceasefire deal, remaining hostages are to be released. Wonder what the politics behind it is.

Some reporting that Trump wanted this to end before he takes over and if not, shit will happen. But I thought Israel and Trump are best buds and he would lean on Israel's side.

Or, is it that Biden wanted to go down with the credit for negotiating this?

[westopher]

I don't think it's over. Israel will violate the ceasefire deal within hours most likely. They already did on the last temporary ceasefire multiple times

[Traum]

Some reporting that Trump wanted this to end before he takes over and if not, shit will happen. But I thought Israel and Trump are best buds and he would lean on Israel's side.

My guess is -- with Trump being best buds with Isreal / Netanyahu, Hamas leaders (or whatever remains of them) finally figured it wasn't in their best interest to keep fighting.

If I am understanding things correctly, Hamas leadership as well as their general capabilities have already taken a huge beating. They are in no real shape to put up a fight in Gaza anymore. Had they continued to keep resisting, the only upside is that Israel will continue to pound civilian infrastructure in Gaza, and continue to earn international condemnation for committing war crimes and other humanitarian catatrophes. But Israel obviously doesn't give a damn about any of that, and the international community aren't putting much meaningful weight or pressure towards Israel to stop anyway.

For Israel, their focus is no longer in Gaza anymore. So wrapping things up in Gaza would allow them to focus on their next target better (Hezbollah / Lebanon / Iran). Netanyahu can also take credit for finally bringing the hostages home, although I tend to believe that a lot of the hostages that have not been returned are either already dead, or their whereabouts aren't even known by the remaining Hamas leadership.

So it is a big win for Israel and Netanyahu, but they don't really care all that much whether they are wrapping things up now, or in 6 months.

[whitev70r]

FWIW:

Trump gets credit for what looks like a Biden's Ceasefire Proposal

https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/gaza-ceasefire-trump-biden-1.7431005

Trump "pressed hard, and he clearly told the prime minister that he wants to see a deal before his inauguration" on Jan. 20, Avarham said, adding that the draft proposal is "the same deal" that was tabled on May 27 by the Biden administration.

[westopher]

Ceasefire deal reached. Israel celebrates by killing more civilians since it doesn't start until Sunday.
"I might not be able to blow people up for a while so just getting it all out of my system" Netanyahu probably.
Someone needs dismember this guy while he is still alive.

[JDMDreams]

^ right, Israel started this by abducting over 1000 random people for over a year.

[westopher]

This has been going on longer than 450 days.

[whitev70r]

^ right, Israel started this by abducting over 1000 random people for over a year.

you think Israel has exacted revenge 10 or 20 fold yet?

[westopher]

Getting up to 50 fold now. If you forget about the 70 years or so before that.

[whitev70r]

So why is it that when hostages are exchanged and released, Gaza released like 4 Israelis and Israel releases like 200 Palestinians? Maybe JDMDreams can answer this.

[JDMDreams]

So they abducted 4 random women soldiers and held them for only a year, why did they only release 4? Did the rest of them die?

The soldiers — Karina Ariev, Daniela Gilboa, Naama Levy, all aged 20, and Liri Albag, 19 — were all stationed at an observation post on the edge of Gaza and abducted by Hamas fighters who overran their base during the attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.

They shouldn't have released these, they sound like real terrorist.

Hamas said the 200 Palestinians who were part of the exchange include members of Islamic Jihad, Hamas, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), some serving life sentences. Egyptian state-run TV reported that Israel released about 70 of the Palestinians into Egypt.


https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/hamas-israel-2nd-hostage-swap-1.7441642

Sounds like a pretty good deal 1 for 50?

[Hondaracer]

If anyone’s watched the mini series on the Indian plane that was hijacked from Nepal and ultimately the terrorists got what they demanded in the release of 4 Pakistani terrorists to release the civilians, when you release the worst of the worst in exchanges like this it never works out and ultimately it’s a moral dilemma

The 4 terrorists released during that air India thing went on to kill like 30,000+ people and one was one of the main architects or passengers during 9/11 lol..

Very good mini series if you haven’t watched it

[CivicBlues]

Mossad probably put implants in the terrorists they released so next time shit hits the fan (say next week) they'll just send a signal like they did with the pagers and then... kablamo

https://nationalpost.com/news/world/israel-middle-east/israel-to-conquer-gaza-with-overwhelming-force-to-defeat-hamas

Israel doing the crazy

[StylinRed]

So why is it that when hostages are exchanged and released, Gaza released like 4 Israelis and Israel releases like 200 Palestinians? Maybe JDMDreams can answer this.

Because Israel randomly detains Palestinian citizens without charge, including children, it costs a lot to hold so many random people and it looks good in the media when they release 100s for just a few of their own (pretending they value their own people)

And they don't really lose their number of captives because they release a couple hundred to Gaza but kidnap 100 more in the west bank

PP is a Zionist, Harper is a Zionist, the whole US government are Zionists, its become the defacto stance these politicians have to take because of AIPAC, and all these other monied lobbying groups they're beholden to, it isn't good, but it certainly isn't a new thing.

It's like how Obama had to declare himself as a Christian running up to his election (when he's clearly Agnostic/Atheist), there are certain stances that you are required of you in order to have any position within leadership in the Western world, an unfortunate truth.

Real question, why the fuck is Canadian city hall flying an Israeli flag?

[Traum]

The burning of national flags has always been considered a form of free expression protected by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. So just bcos it is an Israeli flag, it makes no sense for there to be a charge of inciting hatred.

[westopher]

I wasn’t sure if I was mixing my constitution/charter rights when it came to flag burning being protected, but I thought it was here too.
Also a veteran arrested in the US for burning an American flag. Pretty indicative of the power dynamic right now and very gross.
Just because there is a Zionist mayor that’s somehow an issue, yet people carrying Nazi flags are allowed to until someone from the punches them and stops it. Fucking pathetic.
How quickly would a Palestinian flag flying at a government agency be taken down due to “antisemitism”
For the record, we shouldn’t be flying either unless every other countries flag is flying.

[Traum]

US courts have previously recognized in their rulings that the burning of American flags is a symbol of free speech, and is thus protected by the First Amendment (of the US Constitution). But just 2 days ago, Trump has issued yet another EO to direct Pam Bondi (US AG) to prosecute people doing just that, and there has already been a guy getting arrested for flag burning.

At this point in the shxt show, I am basically expecting the POS SCOTUS to overturn the previous ruling on flag burning being a constitution right protected by the 1st amendment. The POS SCOTUS has already proven itself more than a few times that it will do this, and the Trump team has already demonstrated how they are effectively re-amending the Constitution thru a series of SCOTUS rulings. The procoess basically goes like this:

1. Trump issues an EO that clearly violates the Constitution, or otherwise exceeds the limits of his executive powers

2. Somebody sues the US gov at a lower court and wins

3. The Trump administration appeals the lower court ruling, and it goes all the way up to SCOTUS

4. Then the POS SCOTUS rules on some obscure BS technicality to overturn the lower court's decision, and basically grants the executive branch the power to do the thing that should have been a Constitutional violation

It is so fxxked up that I don't even know what more I can say to describe how wrong it is... FailFish

It's a burb of Montreal ... full of smoked meat deli and Jews.

maybe we throw up the Russian and Chinese flags together at the same time?

Zionism[a] is an ethnocultural nationalist[b] movement that emerged in late 19th-century Europe to establish and support a Jewish homeland through the colonization of Palestine,[2] a region corresponding to the Land of Israel in Judaism[3] and central to Jewish history. Zionists wanted to create a Jewish state in Palestine with as much land, as many Jews, and as few Palestinian Arabs as possible.[4]

Israel continues to bomb the hell out of Gaza, now focused on Gaza city. 24 yrs ago, things like this brought international outrage. Even families of hostages in Israel is saying Netayahu is the reason why they cannot get them back.

[mikemhg]

I was saying that to a group of friends, White.

Imagine we're witnessing a total and complete genocide, and here we don't seem to really care, I wonder if this is similar to how people felt in the 1930s?

At the same time you have a fairly large group of right wing folks in the west who will still parrot "Israel has to defend itself" or "What about October 6th"?! As if comparing 1200 deaths to that of leveling a whole city to the tune of upwards of 80,000.

if that nintendoyahoo fucker gave a shit, he would have secured the release of these people first before carpet bombing them into oblivion.

[whitev70r]

Honestly, I think the rest of them are dead by now. If not by mistreatment, prob by starvation. But Netanyahu won't say that cuz that's his only reason for his continued genocide.

fuck that stupid nintendoyahoo. hes worse than putin.. or at least in the same league as him anyways. at least putin aint starving kids, hes only destroying their.... homes.... and... yeah fuck him too.

Nobody cares because the word Genocide has no meaning anymore

Israel levels Gaza = Genocide
China puts Uyghurs in re-education camps = Genocide

There are actually a shit tonne of massive protests in the UK and other countries now, even some groups have started attacking companies that supply arms to Israel… but for some reason it’s not getting any media coverage outside the UK… or if it does they focus on the group carrying out vandalism etc as being a terrorsit group.

There was also the Rwandan Civil War and genocide in the 1990s. FeelsBadMan


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rwandan_genocide

The Rwandan genocide, also known as the genocide against the Tutsi or the Tutsi genocide, occurred from 7 April to 19 July 1994 during the Rwandan Civil War.[4] Over a span of around 100 days, members of the Tutsi ethnic group, as well as some moderate Hutu and Twa, were systematically killed by Hutu militias. While the Rwandan Constitution states that over 1 million people were killed, most scholarly estimates suggest between 500,000 and 800,000 Tutsi died, mostly men.[5][6][7] The genocide was marked by extreme violence, with victims often murdered by neighbours, and widespread sexual violence, with between 250,000 and 500,000 women raped.[3][8]

[CivicBlues]

Yeah and don't forgot the Yugoslav Wars of the 1990s. Back then the word Genocide meant something - its when one group seeks to wipe out another group through killing. Back in the 90s, when shit made sense.

[whitev70r]

so is this peace deal the real thing? will Galumf get his Nobel Peace Prize ...

[Badhobz]

How can there be peace after he leveled the entire strip, killed hundreds of thousand and are starving the rest to near extinction. It’ll be peace for all of a few weeks when they get some more food and then it’ll be back to Jew killing as soon as they gather up enough humus energy.

[westopher]

No matter what gets agreed to the fucking terrorist Netanyahu will be killing kids indefinitely until he dies.

[Traum]

IIRC the last time a temporary ceasefire was established, half way through one of the negotiated phases when hostages and prisoners were released / exchanged, Netanyahu suddenly changed the terms on continuing the ceasefire. Hamas balked at it, and insisted on continuing on with the previously negotiated plan, albeit at a somewhat delayed pace. Netanyahu refused to continue, vowed to start bombing Gaza again if Hamas didn't give in. And when Hamas didn't give in to the altered demands, Netanyahu called on the IDF to resume the attacks in Gaza.

I pretty much expect a similar thing to happen again -- as soon as Hamas returns enough hostages, perhaps all the ones that are still alive? Netanyahu is gonna make up some stupid excuse to pull the ceasefie rug from underneath Hamas. And then they're resume their Gaza flattening operations aka genocide.

[whitev70r]

Part of the peace deal should include the 'retirement' of Netanyahu.

[JDMDreams]

Then why can't they return the hostages? It's been two years, how many is still alive?

[Badhobz]

pretty sure you dont even want these people back... thats going to be a real basket case of a human being after 2 years with the humus people.

[westopher]

Then why can't they return the hostages? It's been two years, how many is still alive?

Have you read a single word about what’s going on? Do you know what a hostage is?

[JDMDreams]

Nope and I stopped caring, all I know is hostages THAT STARTED THIS still has not been released. You can't ask for peace then if the wrong that caused this has not been rectified.

[Infiniti]

Ceasefire you say!? Great! Maybe all the virtue-signaling can stop now.

[mikemhg]

Ceasefire :lol

I can't imagine Hamas is even fronting much or any of a fight of any sort at this point, they've been decimated.

This "war" is essentially a grown man throwing a child around the room at this juncture, it's cute to call it a ceasefire as if the other side is even waging a battle back.

[westopher]

“Started this”
So do you think giving the hostages back is going to get Netanyahu to just let Palestinians live in peace? After like 80 years of attacking them before the hostages? Just give em back! It’s so simple!
You should be out there negotiating.

[Badhobz]

Ceasefire :lol

Yeah but this sort of mass murder will for sure breed the next generation of humus fighters. People don’t quickly forgot that a quarter of a million Palestinians were wiped out for lawls.

They might not be humus in label, it might be lavash or something, but this shit isn’t going to end. A fatwah on all these criminals !!!

Keeping people alive is very very hard. Esp when you have impact as a bargaining chip. My uncle was a cop and he says if you want to hold ransom, you better get a guy / girl that's worthy. (oldest / youngest) and better not have some weird asthma or heart issues cause you leverage goes down to shit.

Oh, and you have to feed them well so keeping hostage alive aint' cheap.

[68style]

Your uncle spends time thinking about strange things lol

that reeks of PTSD. Poor guy must have a hard time going to bed every night.

[whitev70r]

All I have to say is, if you have to give credit to where it's due, I'm still somewhat in disbelief that Trump got this done. Even if this is all he got done, the return of the 20 living hostages, and all the remains of the dead ones for what 1800 Palestinian prisoner exchange ... that's a pretty big deal. No one else was able to.

Whether the peace deal will last or not , we shall see. The children of this gen of Palestinians will grow up with some deep hate on the Israelies. One Battle after Another says, it will come back in another shape and form.

[Traum]

I was watching this on Saturday:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85Pmv8u8J8A

and even though I was more or less expecting it, seeing it still left a pretty strong impact.

Perhaps Hamas is really at the end of their wits in Gaza right now, so they are really quite close to having no viable options left? And their leaders are getting murdered even when they are outside of Gaza -- in Qatar, for example.

I continue to have zero trust in Netanyahu, and I remain very skeptical the ceasefire will last. The way I look at it is -- Netanyahu saw a good opportunity to get the hostages back, so he seized it. It was as much for his own good as it was for him to do Trump a favour (in agreeing to a ceasefire).

We will see whether the ceasefire lasts.

[westopher]

Israel is already being accused of withholding aid. Hamas beheading “traitors” publicly. War will be back on within the week.
The civilians want peace. Those in power aren’t interested.

[EvoFire]

Funny how Chinese proverbs are getting brought up left and right here, but it reminds me of this one

神仙打架，凡人遭殃

It means the gods are having a spat, and mortals suffer.

[westopher]

Under the ceasefire deal, Israel has freed some doctors, nurses and paramedics seized during raids on hospitals in Gaza, but other high-profile medical figures remain missing.

All this talk about hostages and no one seems to mention the amount of Palestinians that Israel has taken as hostages over the last decade under the guise of “law and order.”
People who have been imprisoned indefinitely without any sort of trial or legal proceeding.
Hamas is a terrorist organization, that much I believe, but it’s time to label the IDF as the same thing. The only difference is they are provided weaponry by the US instead of Iran.

I noticed the massive discrepancy right away when they released some of the terms of the hostage/prisoner exchange.

[westopher]

There has been a notable gap in the language used by media on how they portray Israelis compared to Palestinians. The “less than” approach when using empathetic language for Palestinian victims of violence has been dehumanizing in even the most left leaning mainstream media channels.

Maybe this article will help you, bro.

"Canada listed Hamas as a terrorist entity under the Criminal Code in November 2002. It is a criminal offence to knowingly participate in or contribute to any activity of Hamas. Canada has also listed the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, the al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades and other groups as terrorist organizations under Canadian legislation, in accordance with UN Security Council Resolution 1373 (2001). The Government of Canada has no contact with these groups."

Jesus, you people can't even take the good news of returning hostages/prisoners and cease fire in stride?

They're killing each other - :swear:
They've stopping killing each other for a few days - :swear:

I can only hope these are the first steps towards a lasting state when we can all collectively go back to ignoring whatever it is the fuck these savages do to each other again.

[westopher]

Still withholding aid. Still killing. No consequences. But hey, rejoice for the week long fall vacation!

[Traum]

And whaddaya know? Israel is once again claiming militants have fired at their troops in southern Gaza, but no injuries have been reported. So IDF is responding with airstrikes and artillery fire, killing a bunch of Palestinians (<10 at the time when I am writing this, according to the news I've read.)

All of this miraculously happened after all the still alive hostages and some of the deceased ones have been returned.

Has it even been a week?

Fxxk you, Netanyahu.

[mikemhg]

What a surprise!

I'm so tired of the media falling over themselves to give flowers to Trump for brokering this joke of a peace deal, I feel like I'm in Lala land.

How hard is it to broker a peace deal when the enemy is already dead?

Everything I read re: analysis of said "peace deal" not filled with platitudes for dementia president said that world leaders were all extremely concerned with the lack of anything resembling a plan or substance... like... PEACE DEAL... okay but then how do you maintain it? Who's in charge of a wide variety of rebuild and monitoring situations? Who's coordinating efforts for relief? Zero actual efforts on how to deal with the after part.

What do you mean by: "Zero actual efforts on how to deal with the after part"?

The USA, Egypt, and other international countries(Indonesia, UAE, Qatar and Azerbaijan) have formed an International Stabilization Force (ISF) to help transition from wartime to peacetime. It is the first phase of many. As the IDF withdraws, the ISF takes over the governance. The ISF is a “temporary transitional governance of a technocratic, apolitical Palestinian committee.”

[68style]

Besides the fact it’s failing spectacularly as we speak? This addresses your wishful thinking:

“Another problem with the Trump plan is the international stabilisation force (ISF), which it says will be composed of troops from regional states and other Muslim countries, and will assume responsibility for Gaza’s security after the IDF hands over the areas it leaves. The plan offers no details on the size of this peacekeeping force, the scope of its responsibilities and the means it will use to contain disorder, whether from clashes between Hamas and Israel or violence pitting Hamas against armed groups (some rival clans, others backed by Israel), something that has already occurred. Plus, though a few states have signalled their interest, none has yet committed to providing troops for the ISF – perhaps because of these looming dangers”

Bromigo, are you hoping it fails? Also, what is the source for what you quoted?

Egypt is expected to lead a four-nation Gaza “stabilisation” force envisaged by US President Donald Trump's 20-point peace plan for the war-devastated enclave, sources told The National on Sunday.

They said the International Stabilisation Force will be made up of at least 4,000 troops from Egypt, Azerbaijan, Turkey and Indonesia. Egypt, in collaboration with the US, will be seeking a UN Security Council resolution establishing the force and spelling out its mandate, they added.

The proposed force will be working alongside an estimated 3,000 Palestinians nominated by the Ramallah-based Palestinian Authority. The Palestinians will take charge of intelligence-gathering and preventive security in Gaza, said the sources. Some of them have already been trained by Egypt and Jordan.

Included in the mandate of the proposed force is overseeing the establishment of field hospitals to compensate for the significant damage sustained by the territory's health facilities. It's also mandated to repair bakeries and other vital infrastructure sites.

Bro, you are incapable of looking at things objectively and therefore have such a parochial view. The Trump administration has worked assiduously to come out with a plan that has been agreed upon and is being carried out in phases. The USA is obviously not the only stakeholder involved. Establishing a peacekeeping force in Gaza requires a resolution from the UN Security Council. This is what Egypt is working on as of today to get approval this week. This doesn't happen overnight.

Seems like something that would have been prudent to do BEFORE ruining any good faith by having nothing in place for the withdrawal before it very predictably imploded without any monitoring or overseeing force to ensure both sides stick to the deal?

This is especially the case for Palestinians who have no real choice for government in the region, they either have Hamas who are the defacto government due solely to the fact they’re the only group that’s at least “organized” despite being a terrorist group… the only other choice is the Palestinian Authority which not one single Palestinian person trusts since they’re a puppet project of the Israeli government.

This peace accord is a failure. The proof is in what’s currently happening. It didn’t have to be, but poor planning and lack of consideration of the complexities of the region are ruining this opportunity.
