[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]
Bottom line is... the Jews ain't goin out like that again. F the culture in Palestine that lead to this, starting with their belligerence towards a race of people with roots to that very land, fleeing an actual genocide. You have sown to the wind. Game over.
Think mankind can negotiate its way out of a wet paperbag lol
Leave God alone, he has left you alone.
We live, or no one lives. The whole world can get nuked for all I care. That's the justice you seek. Indiscriminate justice

I respect this more than the just war fallacy.
The cultural roots argument is bunk, though. They all have roots there, cultures don't own land, and do we exclude the Israeli Jews of Russian, Polish, and German decent? No one in their right mind would reset the world demographics to 2000 years ago by ethnicity by force. Talk about genocide.
Not to mention, this garbage is rooted in the notion here's some dude in the sky picking favorites. And even if we're to believe the book on which this dude is based, Jews aren't supposed to have a state. The Judeo-Christo-Islamic faith is dependent on a better afterlife as a reward for enduring perpetual persecution. Not for conquering the so-called holy land.
Some food for thought:
hamas have a policy of targeting israeli civilians for rape and murder, including but not limited to their actions on oct 7. further, their leader has made a specific promise to his people that. if able, they will carry out further oct 7s, and on a grander scale
any negotiated outcome must therefore include the removal of hamas' ability to carry out their policy of rape and murder of israeli civilians
So the killing of tens of thousands of women and children while leveling the territory is an oopsie?
Exactly what would classify genocide, then? Forget the extremes. What's the minimum that crosses the line that Israel hasn't done?
You should listen to Dunyain more. He tells it like it is, at least.
Not an oopsie. It's called collateral damage.
Yeah, no. @ the horror
You guys are still in denial of the role Islam plays. There's no point even talking, honestly
This is from your definition Genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in
whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:
Israel is not doing anything with the intent to destroy a national, ethnical, racial, or religious group. They are trying to destroy hamas or at minimum demilitrize them and take them out of power
The rest of your definition is moot

Mossad could go into Qatar and behead Hamas, literally and figuratively.

This could have been done without an indiscriminate aerial assault on the territory.
ISIS is a fluke, 1/1000 outlier of the possible interpretations and manifestations of Islam , right? Just in these last 10/15 years, that total debauchery, stone age shiit
Still they ride.
lol it can't be done
This is destined, there's no other explanation
This show of force leads to the deradicalization of Islam. They're the colonizers, the caliphate
It's not gonna be any diplomacy lol
Got 2 parties going medieval (don't forget the other 109 extant armed conflicts), and a Mickey Mouse international court making rulings n shiit
