And that's the most compelling argument you could offer, so far.

If it is sounds equally probable that Likud (deadlier and better funded terrorists) continues exterminating Palestinians while Hamas/Palestinians cont...

I didn’t mean to suggest that the Japanese attack and the Islamist attack were on the same scale, just that the American nukes more than aiming at des...

To get a better understanding of my views, maybe those questions are not the best starting point. Certainly, I do not speak for Israel in the sense th...

I’d question your points on 2 grounds: 1. When the US got attacked by the Japs in WW2, the US nuked the Japs twice, as soon as nukes were ready. Is th...

Dude, ok let me break it down to you before you keep embarrassing yourself: - "Close to racism" doesn't mean "racist", does it? So to my education, yo...

I asked you 3 questions evidenced in bold, you didn’t answer any. What are your compelling reasons to take your “specifically referring to the more re...

That’s a very questionable way of framing the issue, for several reasons: 1. If you check the demographic of Palestine in recorded history, the first ...

West Bank (= Judea + Samaria) is the historical heart of Israel, so it must be really hard for a Zionist political leaders to prevent their people and...

I feel for you, dude. Do you want a hug?

I don’t find this counterfactual argument particularly compelling. On one side, it sounds so in the hindsight (back then would have you been able to p...

As I said, one can talk about security concerns all he wants, yet others can question their reasons for making such claims compelling. I do not find R...

OK, I'll put it as simple as I can. If the Westerners have to take seriously Israel's security concerns (and I argued why they should, unlike Russia's...

OK and prior to the current horror show, what was the morale of Palestinian civilians (the non-Westerners, the Westerners) about Israel exactly? If Is...

I do not intend to go off topic nor repeat what I have abundantly argued in the thread about the Ukrainian crisis to question views like yours. So I l...

All right, I can respect that. And, for my education, how representative do you think your views are among Finns today?

OK let's see how far you can empathize with the Palestinians. Let's say Netanyahu is a psychopath and can/wants to murder ALL Palestinians in Gaza for...

Well that’s not my case. Indeed, what you are saying is very much related to the point I made on several occasions in the thread about the Ukrainian c...

When one tries to follow those events more tightly from Euromaidan (which seemed very much an attempted "coup" but by the pro-Russian Ukrainian Presid...

Fully agree on that. Many Westerners still refuse to see the threats coming from Russian imperialism and Islamism and fall for the claim that Israelis...

I trust those posts from twitter even more than the article, for reasons.

That's why I posted it. If you read my links, all of them are criticizing Zelensky's choice of replacing Zalushny with the Butcher.
