[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]

To the surprise of no one the hostages freed last week reported they were transferred around various UNRWA camps during the last 1+ yrs and spent time being held in Kamal Adwan hospital.
Also, as mentioned earlier Israel has recovered MASSIVE supplies of mostly Russian made arms from Hezbollah arms caches, and it wasn't clear what they were going to do with them; as they use and are trained on different arms.
The current proposal is to hand all the arms to Ukraine, which seems like a fair idea.

earlier I had said they were hostages. it turns out that one of them was an IDF reservist who had appeared in media in her uniform and praised the Israeli murder machine. so, I was wrong (nods at Blue who said I never admit it!) and only 2 were hostages (potentially).

Guys, I legit don’t know why you even engage with an individual like this. Truly sick.
If Israel will start operating in the west bank in a full-scale operation, I will try to reenlist and give you all front-line reporting
'Now go and smite Amalek and utterly destroy all that they have; do not spare them, but kill both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.'
You do know that Israel has no lawful business in the West Bank, unless they formally annexe it and give all the population equal rights, and that as things stand they are an unlawful aggressor and occupying power?
Wow... not only did Trump force Israel to accept a deal where the Gazans are getting all the prisoners they wanted on October 8 plus all captives who were abducted as bargaining chips since then, but they also get control of the Rafa crossing.
So not only did the Democrats get their lesson in shameless pro-Israel policy (which, granted, I doubt they'll learn), but even the short-term results have been better than what Biden would have done, i.e. paying lip service to common decency while letting the Israeli far right do whatever they want.
Remind me... why is there such an outrage that pro-Pals didn't vote for Kamala again?
This is a weird name for a thread because "Palestine" is not a real place and has never been.

lol what happened to Lu?
Oh don;t you try pull the wool over my eyes with your sneaky underhand Italian Machiavellian bullshit, I know it's you and nothing will convince me otherwise, not least your attempts to bamboozle me with long words like "understanding" and "history".
Let's put it to the test shall we?
Your daughter brings home her boyfriend but he's a Marxist who voted for Obama and has a AOC for POTUS badge, no wait, a tee shirt. With really big letters so everyone can read it.
Do you
A) Kill him
B) Kill him and blame a migrant on it?
C) Kill him in front of your daughter, with a stern warning that this type of behaviour won't be tolerated, and then blame a migrant?
D) Tell your daughter you disapprove, but as long as she's happy and treated right, you can live with it.
If you answered a,b or c, you're Luciom.
If you answered d, then you're Luciom and just lying to divert suspicion away from you being luciom.
So just admit it's you. (or maybe don't as you could possibly get perma'd ) but point being it's definitely you, despite your intricate tapestry of a cover story about playing poker.

Oooohhhhhhhh quoting the Bible. Fantastic.
Did you know that being publicly gay is punishable by death in the Torah?
And yet, Tel Aviv is one of the most gay-friendly cities in the world.
Unlike some other religions (that will go unnamed), Jewish people aren’t extremists who are living in the Middle Ages.
Pinkwashing itt

Vile post even for you victor
lol, your ignorance knows no bounds.
Tel Aviv is safe for some gay people sure. But a gay Palestinian would be executed on sight so I think you are omitting some important facts.

You left out the part where tens of thousands of Gazans were killed and the entire city was destroyed. And most of their allies are shells of what they were on 10/8.
And Hamas is still around, which is the worse thing for Gaza, because no one is going to be rushing in to rebuild with those maniacs around, and war between Israel and Hamas can restart at any moment.
This was not a win for Gaza.
Why is not the whole region allied with Israel to get rid of Hamas? The region is losing trillions of dollars because of the instability caused by the "Palestinians". The area is uninvestable until somebody figures out what to do about these people. It appears they have no interest other than to kill Israelis. The rest of the area just wants to normalize business relations.

How is it some of these people work every day in Israel without being executed. Many were treated in Israeli hospitals before the Hamas terror attack.
you are the guy who has defended mass murder of children bc in your mind they are all militants.
so you may think its vile, but a mid 20s women who goes on TV wearing an actual army uniform is actually yes, a militant. and when captured is a POW.
