You are biased since you either don't know the cause of war or you don't want to see it.

And as for Gaza, the Jews 'forced' their own people who were living there to leave, so at to give that land to the Palestinians. And look what the Palestinians did with that?

Jew-haters have never been known to let facts get in their way, and this forum is infested with them.Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Tue Dec 26, 2023 4:41 pmWell, the problem began when five Arab nations simultaneously attacked Israel, intending to "push them into the sea," in 1948.

Re: The USA and Israel
Astonishingly, yes. It seems so. There seem to be a great number of people who want us to suppose that if some foreign power invades your borders and slaughters your citizens, even in the most brutal and unprovoked ways, then you have no legitimacy in defending your citizens against further attacks. And it's not a standard they'll apply to any other nation that Israel, interestingly.vegetariantaxidermy wrote: ↑Tue Dec 26, 2023 6:56 pmJew-haters have never been known to let facts get in their way, and this forum is infested with them.Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Tue Dec 26, 2023 4:41 pmWell, the problem began when five Arab nations simultaneously attacked Israel, intending to "push them into the sea," in 1948.

Re: The USA and Israel
You don't know what a "wiki" is, obviously. It's an open-source site, which means any person with an agenda and some basic computer savvy can potentially meddle with it. So you need a neutral site, one with a good reputation for integrity, not a "wiki."
Re: The USA and Israel
So to you, the article with 158 citations is biased? Which part of the article you did not like? Unfortunately, I could not find another article that tells the whole story from the point it started otherwise I would share it.Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Tue Dec 26, 2023 7:21 pmYou don't know what a "wiki" is, obviously.

Re: The USA and Israel
It just tells the story in some parts Jews were wrong and in other parts Arabs were wrong.
It is backed up with 158 citations!Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Tue Dec 26, 2023 9:28 pm Does it suggest the article is dealing in the straight facts?

Re: The USA and Israel
Unfortunately, citations aren't particularly difficult to generate...or even fabricate...especially when each refers to only one particular element in an article.
But what's the point? Nobody doubt that Israel has faults. We all know that. What is all that, in the present situation?

Yes, the point is to admit that Israelis and Arabs had faults so perhaps one can find a resolution for the current tragedy.Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Tue Dec 26, 2023 9:37 pm But what's the point? Nobody doubt that Israel has faults. We all know that.

That's not a very important point. To my knowledge, nobody claims Israel is without faults. No state is. However, Hamas will not quit, will not surrender, and will not negotiate -- they have declared so. And they will kill all Jews "from the river to the sea." So that's their "resolution" position.Yes, the point is to admit that Israelis and Arabs had faults so perhaps one can find a resolution for the current tragedy.Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Tue Dec 26, 2023 9:37 pm But what's the point?

So what's your idea, given that Hamas will not accept any resolution but genocide?
Re: The USA and Israel
Hamas already said that they would accept a ceasefire if Israel stops the aggression. Israelis killed 21,000 civilians by now. How about stopping aggression which means that Israel stops bombing Gaza and takes its force outside of Gaza?Immanuel Can wrote: ↑Tue Dec 26, 2023 10:00 pmOf course you can.

What happened after the last 'ceasefire'? You need to refresh my memory.

Wow, the 'death toll' of Gazan human shields keeps snowballing. Soon there won't be anyone left in Gaza.
