re: Israel–Hamas War Discussion Thread: News Links On First Page

There is a segment of the populace out there who will tell you that all of this is fabricated by the Jews to make Hamas look bad......down to the IDF actually building the tunnels.

It’s not in the Palestinian DNA to seek peace.
Ever seen a Palestinian use the word ‘peace?’
The only words they know is ‘jihad’ and ‘holy war.’ Even the rest of the Arab world wants nothing to do with them.
They just want death and destruction. If every single Jew was dead they’d find somebody else to hate and martyr over.
Check out the Hamas Charter.

While the rest of civilization evolves they are incapable.

This is true. They stir shite wherever they go.

One day they'll be drug kicking and screaming into the 19th century.

I’ve kept up with this sparingly. Maybe I’m reading this wrong but seems the far left keep backing hamas whereas conservatives back Israel.

If we're speaking in general terms, then no. The Left doesn't back Hamas. They back Palestinians and believe Israel is an oppressor state. They generally draw a distinction between Hamas and the Palestinian people.

The left isn't antisemitic as much as they're Anti-Israel and what they believe are discriminatory, separatist and oppressive governmental policies.

And generally speaking , as far as the right is concerned, to be Palestinian is to automatically back Hamas. This is actually closer to the truth than the opposite. After all, the Palestinian people did elect those savages.

Criticism of Israel however, whether one agrees with it or not isn't antisemitic but to criticize Israel these days is to be antisemitic.

We talk about "protected classes" in the United States. Well Israel is our favored "protected victim".

20 minutes past Midnight on Cease Fire Day, and they're still going at it, even more so than the past days.

Then why are they harassing Jewish students and citizens in the US?

Because in the minds of some, to be Jewish is also to be Israeli or Pro Israel. When in fact, there's lots of American Jews who don't give a shite about Israel at all.

This is why you also see American or European Jews protesting Israel. Lots of Western Jews draw a line between their religion and the Country of Israel. They're not the same.

Appears not all the Muslim factions agreed to it

Or whoever was wheeling and dealing didn't have 50 prisoners.

Or when the criteria shifted to live hostages all of a sudden they crawfished.

At first when I saw the page count I thought damn what happened that's a lot to catch up on but then I quickly realized that if I just ignored any post by Pandy or in response to him I'd catch up pretty quickly

I've reached the point where when I see he's posted something, I just assume it's incorrect and move on.

No point in reading or downvoting or anything.

It is being reported that thirteen hostages have just been released. Today's total is supposed to be 25, 13 Israelis and 12 Thai.
