[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.

This seems an unacceptable stretch. And it was bad policy anyway, because it gave the Israelis something to kick against, and basically they've got more firepower. And like Hamas they are absolutely pitiless towards their perceived ethnic enemies.
From the 1980s:
Victor, what I’m reading is a description of armed civilians, some with former military experience, in gated communes. It’d be a stretch even to call it a fort, much less a military installation. These are peoples homes they defend with volunteer communal militias. See above ^
That is not a comment on the legality (or morality) of building communes on disputed or stolen land, fwiw. Just.. they’re not military installations. Children and babies don’t live in military installations.
Ay yo, shooting a toddler is still kind of jacked regardless of whether or not it's on a military installation.
its def bad. too bad no one did that.
I dont know why facts are so difficult for you.

they are defensive structures. thats why they were put there and they still exist as such today.
"gated community"
The kibbutz I know anything about that was next to Gaza had people living there who were dedicated to peace and working together with Arabs and Gazans.
If you read the Geneva convention it says those kibbutz guys are fair game.
M declared, "You have judged according to the very sentence of God above the seven heavens."[29][28] Consequently, 600–900 men of Banu Qurayza were executed. The women and children were distributed as slaves, with some being transported to Najd to be sold. The proceeds were then utilized to purchase weapons and horses for the Muslims.[a]
--Wikipedia leaves this part out, but the women slaves were made concubines (sex slaves who are raped, in case you need me to spell it out), including the most
Wiikipedia is not a realiable source. But assuming what's there is true question still where in the Quran Allah orders violence, raping Jews, as you said in previous post?
The "Wikipedia leaves this part out" is even more dodgy then your theory about a God ordering to rape Jews .
Jews and Muslims have the same god
So what?
