I said both sides are using the same tactic. The Palestinians were defeated in the early bouts of conflict when they supported the attempt to eradicat...

Both sides can be accused of ethnic cleansing. They both appear to want total domination of the land. On the (re) creation of Israel it was invaded by...

What makes someone believe that THEIR own country is a legitimate entity and yet not Israel? What makes a country legitimate?

The population of The area "Palestine" was 800,000 in the mid 19th century there are now 7 million Arabs living there. So where exactly is this genoci...

It is called not being Anti-Semitic and supporting Jews.
May 16, 2021 at 10:34
I doubt it. You engaged in a bogus moral debate based on false premises weak axioms and emotions. Defend your axioms and let's debate. Let's have no s...

Well there you have it. The thin veneer of the Pro Palestine's.

And good luck with your rabid delusions.

Property is theft. Land is only owned by force
May 16, 2021 at 10:27
Yes. Israel is on the verge of civil war. There are around seven million Arabs and seven million Jews living in this area and you toxic inflammatory o...

You forgot to mention the 1,500 rockets fired into Israel. The only reason they didn't kill thousands of people is because of Israel's intelligent Iro...
May 16, 2021 at 10:24
The attempt to destroy Israel started immediately after it's foundation. That is how Palestinians lost territory. You are lying. Israel was attacked a...
May 16, 2021 at 10:21
So you think Israel should allow itself to be wiped out by people like yourself without defending itself and taking down its aggressors. I will be hap...

Created by Hamas killing its opponents and firing rockets into Israel. Do you want Hamas to be allowed in to Israel to directly massacre the Jews?
May 16, 2021 at 10:16
Israel faces an existential threat to its existence which many people here seem to embrace.
May 16, 2021 at 10:15
Has anyone fired 1,500 rockets at your house recently?

That is what they are doing now by stoking intercommunal violence.
May 16, 2021 at 10:12
But you don't recognise Hamas as a terrorist organisation trying to destroy them or the previous attacks on Israel by it's neighbours an effort to des...

No. I am saying the premises of the debate are fallacious. Moral debates are mainly garbage. I am antinatalist/ No one who creates children has a mora...
May 16, 2021 at 10:07
Because no Jews belong in the Middle East? I live in the UK which has over 6 million immigrants. Do they belong here. Who are YOU to decide who belong...
May 16, 2021 at 10:04
No you don't.
May 16, 2021 at 10:02
It can't use it's nukes on its own population. It is facing a civil war. That is the tactic of Hamas. Israel's neighbours know that they could never a...

This is such a philosophically shallow debate. Countries do not exist they are a linguistic turn invented humans. No animal else considers it lives in...
May 16, 2021 at 09:59
I am not claiming Israel has done nothing wrong but they are clearly in an existential fight for survival.
May 16, 2021 at 09:52
Anyone should be allowed to live anywhere. That is the logical and philosophical only viable position. The attempt to eradicate Jews from the Middle e...

Under 200 Palestinians including several members of Hamas have died after Hamas launched 1,500 rockets arbitrarily into Israel which has nearly 2 mill...
May 16, 2021 at 09:48
Do you think any Jews belong in the Middle east? Do you think Palestine should be a one race country?
May 16, 2021 at 09:44
Fight back against what? Israel left the the Gaza strip making it a Jew free territory and Hamas used it to fire rockets into Israel. When has Hamas t...

Maybe. However often the truth is lost in relativism. To me relativism is gaslighting and claiming all claims are equal. This thread now has a similar...

Supporters of the Palestinians (Anti-semites?) seem surprised when pro Israel supporters (myself) are as vociferous as themselves. You're not going to...

Um yeah okay what?
May 16, 2021 at 07:23
The topic is an analysis of Israel's actions. How can you analyse Israel actions if you don't compare them with anything else? I am comparing them to ...

It is not a competition. Self defence is self defence. Firing 1,500 rockets indiscriminately on civilians is not self defence. Self defence due to att...
May 16, 2021 at 07:11
It is not irrelevant to the thread because you are using inflammatory language against the Israeli's which you have not applied elsewhere. So I am put...
May 16, 2021 at 07:05
As someone else said elsewhere "Firing 1,500 rockets into Israel is not ethnic cleansing" Read the Hamas charter people.
