Israel/Palestine thread
Think this merits its own thread...
Discuss my fellow 2+2ers..
AM YISRAEL CHAI.
[QUOTE=Crossnerd]
So Mohammed Sinwar was hiding in a bunker under a hospital when the IDF considerately whacked him. Typical cowardly Hamas scumbag using human shields again. But at least he's gone 😀
probably right next to the beheaded babies and the mass rapes.
Obviously Arab and Western media isn't going to report this, but Israel media reports a Hamas controlled aid warehouse was raided yesterday by hungry Palestinians, with Hamas gunmen executing 5 Palestinians in the process.
r/thathappened
and yet no links...
msm isn't reporting this, but the IDF just killed a Hamas giant who was running around the countryside eating babies, it's crazy.
wiki is Hamas, you can't trust what it says, only listen to what the IDF tells you
I never, ever believe Israeli figures. The lsraeIis are patent liars. Let me say that again: They are liars.
Lawrence Wilkerson, a former top ranking US official.
He sounds like a Putin apologist

And an anti Semite, calling American Jewish Bush admin officials' loyalty into question apparently due to them being Jewish.

A lot of these guys, including Wurmser, I looked at as card-carrying members of the Likud party, as I did with Feith. You wouldn't open their wallet and find a card, but I often wondered if their primary allegiance was to their own country or to Israel. That was the thing that troubled me, because there was so much that they said and did that looked like it was more reflective of Israel's interest than our own.

He also claimed that Bashar Al Assad's use of chemical weapons was...an Israeli false flag operation

This article first appeared on the American Enterprise Institute site.
The 2016 election campaign will go down in the history books.
The Ku Klux Klan has managed to insert itself into both the Republican and Democratic debate. The press has criticized Donald Trump especially for being too slow to denounce the hateful rhetoric of some of his supporters.
It should be a no-brainer for any mainstream politician to reject racial and religious hatred and the wild conspiracy theories that breed them. But, unfortunately, wavering and silence in the face of hate isn't new.
Former Secretary of State Colin Powell has decades of honorable service to the United States, first as a military officer, then as national security adviser, as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and finally as secretary of state.
Like many senior statesmen, he doesn't seek constant attention but interjects himself at critical moments, for example, with his endorsement of Barack Obama and his subsequent defense of Chuck Hagel's nomination to be secretary of defense against accusations of Hagel's anti-Semitism and basic questions about his competence.
Powell has remained silent, however, as Lawrence Wilkerson, his former chief of staff and longtime aide, has increasingly descended into a fevered swamp of conspiracy and hate.
According to Wilkerson, Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad's chemical weapons use was actually an Israeli false flag operation because, well, in Wilkerson's world, it should be obvious to everyone that Assad is really a Zionist plant controlled by the Jews.
That Iran's and Hezbollah's television stations fell all over themselves to rebroadcast Wilkerson's statement should have been a wake-up call. That Wilkerson has become a regular on Vladimir Putin's propaganda channel should also have raised eyebrows.

So he doesn't really seem like a valid source on well, anything really.
everything I dont like is antisemitic or Russian propaganda. a guide to Western liberals.
I'm going by what he said. Questioning non Israeli Jews loyalties and declaring Assad's use of chemical weapons an Israeli false flag is certainly anti Semitic.
The first article certainly comes across as Russian propaganda.

A lot of American “pundits” who are predictably pro Russian/antisemetic figures are on a payroll, normally Qatar and/or Russia.
Netanyahu claims the younger Sinwar was killed in an air strike on the 'European hospital' in Khan Yunis a couple of weeks ago. Hamas neither confirms nor denies this, and oddly enough the IDF don't confirm it either. The IDF have not provided evidence of the claimed 'Hamas command centre' under the hospital and a neighbouring school. According to the BBC and other sources the damage indicates the use of heavy 'bunker-buster' bombs.

Israeli media announced the strikes the day it happened, and said Sinwar and other high ranking officials were the target, meeting in a Bunker under a hospital.
At the time they said based on up to the minute intelligence where he was at the time the bombs hit they were certain he was dead. But obviously it is an area Hamas controls, so the IDF couldn’t dig out the bodies themselves to confirm.

right, they dropped a bunch of bunker buster bombs all around the hospital and the neighborhood. theres video of it and many of the bombs hit quite far away from the hospital. some hit the hospital courtyard. there is no way to know where he was when he got killed.
it is worth noting that if someone came in here and claimed that Israel bombed a hospital but they merely burned people alive in tents in the courtyard or parking lot then the usual crew would be in here to yell that it was fake news and they didnt actually hit the hospital. its kind of funny that a tunnel a kilometer away is all of a sudden "underneath the hospital."
these are people completely incapable of honesty and critical thinking. thats how you get them to repeatedly post the most absurd claims and hold onto them for years like the mass rape hoax.
One quick google search shows that Wilkerson is a repeat guest on RT.
Antisemitic old white man doesn’t like Jews. Big surprise lol. You sure know how to pick your role models.

Keep cherry picking your own role models because I'm sure this guy would have been one of yours back in the day.

Wilkerson's comments calling American Jews loyalties to their country into question and regularly appearing on RT aka Kremlin TV calls his validity as a reliable source into question to say the very very least. Therefore when he accuses Israeli officials of being liars, it should be taken with several large barrels of salt. Maybe you should research your sources before posting.

Per usual, you have no idea what you’re talking about. I’m 100% sure you had no idea who Wilkerson was when you reposted his quote. Keep unknowingly lapping up Russian propaganda.
can you post his actual comments questioning the loyalty of Jews?
not that I really care about Wilkerson. Im not really a fan of these former deep state ghouls that all of a sudden want to act like they didnt participate in mass murder and projection of the genocidal White Empire's power. kinda like Ritter and Sachs. but I digress.
I doubt his comments are exactly as described. and there is nothing wrong with going on RT nor does it make someone a Putin apologist. like wtf do you guys think, they make these guys sign a loyalty oath or something? come to think of it, now who is questioning who's loyalty.

That would require more than just copy pasting from Twitter so don’t count on it lol.
