[QUOTE=Crossnerd]Edit: RULES FOR THIS THREAD
Posting guidelines for Politics and Soci...
These are our baselines. We're not reinventing the wheel here. If you aren't sure if something is acceptable to post, its better to ask first. If you think someone is posting something that violates the above guidelines, please report it or PM me rather than responding in kind.
To reiterate some of the points:
1. No personal attacks. This is a broad instruction, but, in general, we want to focus on attacking an argument rather than the poster making it. It is fine to say a post is antisemitic; it is not okay to call someone an antisemite over and over. If you believe someone is making antisemitic posts, report them or PM me. The same goes for calling people "baby killers" and "genocide lovers". You are allowed to argue that an action supports genocide or that the consequences of certain policies results in the death of children, but we are no longer going to be speaking to one another's intentions. It is not productive to the conversation and doesn't further any debate.
2. Racist posts and other bigoted statements that target a particular group or individuals of such groups with derogatory comments are not allowed. This should not need further explanation.
3. Graphic Images need to be in spoilers with a trigger warning.
4. Wishing Harm on other posters will result in an immediate timeout.
5. Genocidal statements such as "Kill 'em all" etc, are no longer permissible in the thread.
If anyone has any questions about the above, please PM me. I don't want a discussion about the rules to derail the content of this thread. If anything needs clarifying, I will do that in this thread.
Please be aware this thread is strictly moderated[/quote]

That's right. You're a racist who believes that brown people, especially Muslims, are inferior to Israelis and can be freely annihilated without consequence.
Not even close, but it really doesn’t matter to me what you think about what I think. Run along and go find a Tweet to tell you want to think.
Engaging with your half baked ideas like “the US created radical Islam!!” is neither interesting nor productive. You’ve shown a distinct lack of knowledge when it comes to Israel/Palestine and the ME which is expected from someone who gathers all of their info from Twitter.
lol not realizing that the USA wants a moderate middle east, and so does Israel (and the Saudies).
You guys go DEEP. It's pretty simple...
Radical Islam took down the towers. Once you accept that radical islam is coming for the West eventually, you don't really need to bend yourself into flat earther level conspiracies.
lol at conflating Al Qaeda/ISIS with the Palestinian Resistance. Al Qaeda are the guys that you just cheered on taking over Syria who look like they are going to do some genocide of their own on the minority Muslims.
regardless, I would say that massacring 100s of thousands is pretty far from moderate. I would call it Extremist. Jewish Extremism even. seems pretty apt.

Well then release the Epstein files. What has Trump got to hide? He's supposed to be the crusader against the deep state pedos but he's acting like he's the pedo and the pedo on film no less.
The U.S. and Israel want, chiefly, and underdeveloped ME. They always seek to hand power to corrupt authoritarians with whom they can whack up the place's resources and control any threat of pan Arab nationalism.
You things like this as if we didn't just see Syria handed to HTS which is basically AQ. These are Islamic fundamentalist terrorists and the U.S. and Israel strongly prefer them to Assad because they want no effective states in the region.
What's going to happen to discourse when most people speaking don't believe what they are saying? and everyone knows people don't even believe what they are saying? Just stop talking dude if you're going to speak at 90 degrees to the truth.
According to a BBC News podcast in 2024:--
Former presidents Bill Clinton and Donald Trump are among the people named in US court papers detailing connections of late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

I didn't say the US, you thick twat.
We're blaming 9/11 on Palestinians now? lol

The Saudis have been heavily committed to funding and exporting Wahhabist and Salafist extremism for some time, and at great expense, with implications for Sudan, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Chechnya and the West. The 9/11 terrorists were Saudi-led, Saudi-financed and Saudi-inspired. The Saudi rulers are probably annoyed that IS, largely their own creation, is now sworn to destroy them. But what the Saudis mostly hate is Shi'ite Iran, their regional power rival, so, as Iran is funding and arming Hamas and Hezbollah, the Saudis are onside with Israel. It's all a bit like the Cold War, not so much shadow-boxing as proxy-boxing.
Religious and ethnosupremacist extremists are now bombing funerals. tell me more about wanting peace.
I dont speak Hebrew, maybe Blue can affirm the translation is correct. this is absolute fanaticism and extremism.
We're only trying to save transportation costs
