  • heart of the Muslim civilization

    Dude what? Did they move Mecca to Jerusalem while I wasn't looking?

    And if we're talking pre 48 era, we're gonna be here all day, since in that era neither Israel nor Palestinians had any proper leadership and most of the actions were performed by nationals on both sides. Yeah Zionism played a heavy part in creating that conflict, but it also did basically nothing wrong on its own. All zionism is is jewish migration towards Israel (holiest land for jews). And they didn't plan on fighting for it, they bought lands legally, started their own communities and lived peacefully up until the ottommens and then later the british stopped them from migrating out of fear of arab muslim resistance to jews coming (again, not kicking anyone out). Only facing resistance did jews start to fight, and they fought hard. Just proves how holy and important that land was for jews. So don't start displaying the natives of that time as completely innocent. Imaging today France started blocking immigration because the migrating population isn't french enough for them.

  • Oh and what do you think would happen the second they open up Palestine? Would they get hugs and kisses or knives and mass raping? Let's look at 7/10 as an example of what happens when Israelis don't supervise entry to their country by Palestinians.

    And as much as I hate it, Israel is a jewish state. Meaning it'll never take in so many muslims endangering that jewish majority status - which is horrible. But on the other hand, neither would Palestinians agree to be part of Israel. Do you really think they'll agree to just enter the state and live alongside existing Israelies? If so, then you live reaaaaaaly far away from that region to know anything about it. A nice resource is "the ask project" on youtube, just watch a couple of videos and see who Israel is facing against. They want nothing to do with Israel. They want their annihilation or exile.

    Start looking at other media sites besides al jazira and see what's really the problem there. Don't believe neither side wants this war to happen, because noone does. It's just that both sides are too stubborn (arguably Palestinians more) to do things for their own good.

  • Firstly, where did I mention jews? Israel have non-jews in it. But it's a valid point, Israel is a jewish point - a home for the jews after the Holocaust - which 100% needed to happen since they're persecuted all over the world. Even if you have no problem with jews, muslim states and nazis do.

    Secondly, you shift all the blame of the situation on Israel, while they do have lots to blame for, so does the Palestinian leadership. They're the ones teaching hate speech in schools, promoting violence against civilians, and not looking for a peaceful resolution benefitting their people.

    Thirdly, yes Israel likes being jewish and is working hard to keep being jewish, but that's their whole shtick. Does anybody blame Jordan or Egypt for being muslim by law? I certainly don't hear them as much as Israeli protestors. Which again further solidifies the need for a jewish state - there isn't a safe place for jews in this world but that state. Wanting to take that away is just wrong.

    Also, I'd like you to keep in mind a simple point. How would arabs live under Israeli law (you can see examples in Israel right now - they have human rights) vs. how would jews live under Palestinian law (hint: they won't). Yes, it's wrong keeping gaza and the west bank under military power, but tbh what else can Israel do when suicide bombers arrive every day (and get praised heavily for it). The only solution is 2 states. Now after what Hamas did, I super doubt it is an option, and probably a total occupation of the land is eminent. Extremism brings extremism, and what Hamas did will make everything worse. That attack worsened the status quo, in the worst possible direction.

  • And again One quick google search brings you to satellite pictures of the damage published by Israel (and also by other non biased news sources) Just search for it, please. I understand you have your agenda but come on don't let it hide truths and evidence.

  • no moral ground for Israel

    The UN vote of 1948 would like to have a word with you, random internet person who clearly knows better than them.

    And again, it's one thing being mad and starting a war about it. It's another thing not starting a country of your own because of it and staying refugees 70 years later, promising to only better your own life ones your enemy is dead. The palestinian mentality is just plain stupid.

  • *The distant past. A.k.a, the 48 past. So much has changed since then, including the people themselves. People should act based on how to improve their present and future, not how to improve (avenge) their past.

  • Israel is with the power to change the situation? Oh really? What could Israel could possibly do do have peace in the region? Besides going "okay we're leaving bye have tel aviv and jerusalem" nothing could be done to stop the palestinian aggression. Nothing, and they proved that time and time again. Israel has nothing to do in the situation except prevent more attacks on it.

  • Bro 1 quick google search and you have a satellite image of the hospital. Ya'll just don't wanna believe anything Israel says at this point.

  • I don't understand. Ya'll think Israel is gonna burn an intelligence asset they have by making it public just so people who are already convinced by one narrative (because underdogs are always easier to support) have proof of one attack not being their own? They have better use for that intelligence. Like fighting a war.

  • Don't recognize it? There are 9 million people living in it, and worldwide recognition. Also the 48 decision was UN backed, meaning the nations of the world think otherwise. Jeez, you can not like someone while still admitting their existence.

  • Right now? Yeah, definitely they're violating human rights. But what are they supposed to do given their history? Every Palestinian leadership ever called out for civilians to be "jihad"s (terrorists) and kill as many as possible. I was simplistic because everyone here on lemmy also talks simplisticly. Talk of no nuance and no faults on both sides, mainly say "israel bad", "israel apartheid", "israel should stop existing" - all while forgetting this conflict has two sides. Yes, one side is poorer, but that doesn't make them more just. Both are wrong, but arguably palestinian leadership are the worst here. Being at a huge disadvantage and still choosing to fight a war they'll lose, while in the process keeping their citizens poor. At least Israel evacuated the cities near Gaza, while Hamas blocked people evacuating outside of a warzone.

  • Oh right, it's not like gaza had a democratic elections where Hamas won... (And then ran a coup murdering the opposition). Israel chose the (what seemed then) less of two greater evil. Clearly they were wrong, and they faced the consequences on saturday.

  • Oh so because the other side is weak they're supposed to just sit idle when they murder pillage and rape? You're disregarding all the brutal fights Israel has fought against its neighbours as "they're strong so boo hoo". They also have thousands dead. They're also terrorized daily. Just because they're stronger doesn't make them less right. Again, they of course have a responsibility in this situation, but come on. Please tell me of any rocket launchers hidden inside a hospital Israel has. Blaming solely israel for the palestinian miserable lives is half the story. A big part of it is their terrorist leadership who take advantage of their poverty to promote a gruesome war they started (not talking about these days, talking about 48, where all the UN agreed on something and they chose to invade. Since then both sides are fully taking part in this war.).

  • Clearly you don't understand what I mean, since you're not that knowledgeable in this conflict. Palestinians' leaders final goal is to get the 48 borders back. Nothing less and nothing more. And to that I said that it's been 70 years, and you'll need to grab it by conquest to get it, since the people lived there an entire life, and will never give it up. The leaders from both sides need to understand that any further border change between them will only make things worse, and the ones who started wanting to conquer was Palestinians. Now Israel is doing the same, but after many years, in which they got more right wing and more national, because of course they will when their busses are bombed by terrorists on the other side. I'm not saying Israel is clear of charge, I just say that they started better than Palestinians, then got more national as time went, because obviously - their enemies are murdering rapists. Palestinians are consistent with their desire to destroy Israel, Israelies have been building up to it (talking about each of their leaders, a.k.a the ones who matter).

  • You blame every Palestinian death on Israel? Seriously? Maybe condem them for the war of 48, but that was 80 years ago, and it was started by Palestinians (and other arab nations who were just racist towards jews) but people in Palestine don't live miserable lives purely because of israel. They have sky high poverty, dysfunctional leadership, an education system focused on murdering your neighbours. What will come out of a people wanting to just rebel against everyone? They rebelled in Jordan, they rebelled in Egypt, they rebelled in Lebanon, and they rebel in Israel. What this people need is a country to take them in, not trying to build another failed country in the middle east (whilst killing/exiling 7 million people in the process, as they oh so desire). Israel would never think of kicking out Palestinians from gaza/west bank if they developed themselves instead of focusing on death. They don't want this headache of terrorist neighbours. Two states isn't and wasn't EVER an option in the eyes of Palestinians. But the jews DO need a state. They're prosecuted all over the world, and without a country to defend them, things like the Holocaust happen. The situation got to this degree because of both parties involved. Palestinians who are head against the wall only wanting death, and Israel who focuses solely on defending themselves, with little regard on how civillians on the other side are living. Of course that with conditions as bad as those terrorists will spawn, but that's not on Israel to blame - that's on the palestinian leadership. Israel faulted with not trying to give Palestinians proper leadership that'll advance them out of poverty and terror. And I failed to understand your native Americans comparison. The natives are Palestinians, so yeah Israel grabs a gun and fight back. It's their home for 80 years, of course they'll fight for it. It's common sense. They're not invaders from outside, every Israeli fighting now was born there.

  • And you really think palestinians have no hand in any of that? Jews were persecuted and exiled from all over the world, left their home after it became too hostile for a better future. Palestinians chose to stay in an explosive situation, waging wars and losing them. When your neighbour is stronger and doesn't want you - leave. Every nation in the world knows this except for the palestinians.

  • So many empty hateful comments here miss the fact that 70 years ago was 70 years ago, and since then a whole new generation of people are living in the region. Israelies who don't feel obligated to have Israel but don't want anti-Semitism abroad, and palestinians who don't mind staying where they were born, inside the 48 borders, but want a decent live inside of it. No leader from any place on earth is working towards them. Israeli leaders want the whole country for themselves, and Palestinian leaders also want the whole land for themselves. Neither is plausible without serious loss of life. So stop being so one-sided and actually acknowledge there are two sides to this conflict, and that all parties are reaponsible. Israel would give anything in the world to have peaceful rulers in Gaza.

  • What is Israel supposed to do? They got proof that Palestinians will never live with them in peace. In fact, they got that proof for centuries, but only now it's plain as day. Is Israel supposed to lose this war? Are they seriously the only country in this world which isn't allowed to defend itself? They owe nothing to Palestinians. They owe everything to the kidnapped who are still to this second held captive under savages who rape women and parade distorted bodies.
