[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.

Israel provides bomb shelters to its citizens. They sound sirens when rockets are heading towards them. They intercept rockets with iron dome technology
Hamas uses its citizens as shields. No bomb shelters. Have tunnels for terrorists but not for civilians
Hamas has shot many rockets at civilians.
Umad that Israel protects its citizens?
That's rhetorical
If hamas gave a **** about its people many more would be alive
But they do not
You can include Hamas if you want. How many babies did Hamas kill?
They want to destroy a country. If they don't want their citizens to die then they should probably give up on that goal.
They obviously want their citizens to die
Then they release unverified death numbers but REFUSE to differentiate between civilians and soldiers
And people in this thread believe that all gazans are civilians and all Israelis are military
You're wasting your breath bro
Starting wars, refusing to end them when losing, and being completely uninterested in protecting your own citizens is not the moral win you seem to think it is. It is a sign of complete moral depravity; which is a common theme in every faction you support.
Islamism las practiced by IRI and its proxies is a completely morally deprived ideology. An epistemological wasteland. It is just straight loserville.
They refuse to end a war and accept permanent Israeli theft of their own land to form an even more oppressive apartheid state in Lebanon and Gaza. why would anyone agree to that?

Cope harder. They are right wing, authoritarian, theocratic, zero sum lizard brain tribalism losers with a loser ideology that have been losing land in their losing Jihad to destroy Israel for 80 years. And as long as they embrace Islamism and are completely indifferent to the suffering they cause, especially to their own people, they will continue to lose, because it is a loser ideology.
Islamism is loserville.
Id say they havent lost until they give up the fight and agree to live in slavery as the Western Supremacists in USA Europe and Israel desire.
Interesting new poster. Not sure how long you're going to last under this regime ,though.
The ICC chief prosecutor was advised to go ahead with the arrest warrant request by Theodor Meron, 94-year-old Jewish Holocaust survivor and ex-Israeli diplomat.
Sounds like a very antisemitic person.

Don't you think this is gonna happen whether they continue the fight or not? Wouldn't it be better to accept inevitable defeat and save many lives? Have you noticed that conditions have only gotten worse throughout the years? I get keeping up the fight if you are making progress. According to you and your ilk the "Palestinians" are being genocided. It sounds like they are losing badly. The terrorism is not working. Israel probably will take more land just like they have done the other times they were attacked. I don't blame them.

I'm sure the old guy has all of his faculties to be making recommendations like this. Did they consult with 100 year old Jimmy Carter as well?
I'm pretty sure this particular 94 year old has more mental faculties than his critics, including posters previously banned for celebrating the killing of an antifa protestor in Charlottesville.

well they havent taken any territory in Lebanon yet so it seems pretty dumb to give up your freedom without making the invaders earn it.
Feel free to head over to Amensty International’s website and do some research on all the laws that Israel has put in place since it’s inception to quite literally subjugate it’s non-Jewish residents, before making such ridiculous comments and thereby embarrassing yourself.
Oh, sorry I forgot that Amnesty International, a non-government organization focused on human rights is just an offshoot of Hamas.
For your secular and single minded convenience, their apartheid is literally

In 2010 Frank Johansson, the chairman of Amnesty International-Finland called Israel a nilkkimaa, a derogatory term variously translated as "scum state", "creep state" or "punk state".[48][49] Johansson stood by his statement, saying that it was based on Israel's "repeated flouting of international law", and his own personal experiences with Israelis. When asked by a journalist if any other country on earth that could be described in these terms, he said that he could not think of any, although some individual "Russian officials" could be so described.[49] According to Israeli professor Gerald M. Steinberg of NGO Monitor, a pro Israel campaign group: "Amnesty International has promoted an intense anti-Israel ideology, resulting in statements like these."[4
Hmmm...
In November 2012, Amnesty UK began a disciplinary process against staffer Kristyan Benedict, Amnesty UK campaigns manager, because of a posting on his Twitter account, said to be anti-semitic, regarding three Jewish members of parliament and Operation Pillar of Defense where he wrote: "Louise Ellman, Robert Halfon and Luciana Berger walk into a bar ... each orders a round of B52s ... #Gaza"
Hmmmm with a raised eyebrow...
n November 2016, Amnesty International conducted a second internal investigation of Benedict for comparing Israel to the Islamic state
I'm starting to suspect that Amnesty International may be just a teensy bit biased here, so maybe their criticism should be viewed within this somewhat biased context.
ofc anyone who values and upholds human rights thinks that about the Israeli state. it stands for the opposite of human rights.
Or maybe, just maybe, their entire existence is dedicated to looking at abuses of human rights with an impartial view, which then causes them to call out those who abuse said human rights. But no, you’re probably right. Hamas!!
Ah c'mon now how can they be impartial if they're biased? That just wouldn't make sense as it would be contradictory or something.

So apt comparison, yay or nay vic?
I tried to make it FVCKANYCOUNTRYWHOSENTIREIDENTITYISBASEDONRELIGIONANDSUBJEGATINGTHOSEWHOOPPPSESAIDRELIGION but that was too long
That does come across as a bit of a mouthful, no argument there. Nearly but not quite as long as it's disingenuous.
Btw... I've a funny feeling you won;t be around for much longer, so nice knowing you in advance. 😉

Oh I didn't see that bc I was scanning for ISIS and he said Islamic state. But I dunno, it's not a comparison that I would make but I am willing to hear the guy out.
