Perhaps the fact that when Palestinians try peaceful protest, they get murdered, when they try peaceful boycotts, they get criminalised and banned, and when they support more peaceful orgs Israel boosts orgs like Hamas to undermine them has already been pointed out several times. Yet we keep getting this "Hamas are evil and are stopping peace" line from folk who refuse to engage with history.

I definitely don’t answer to you. It’s similar to talking to a Trump-like supporter in a cult. Things you wrote and indirectly hinted to earlier in this thread were out of bounds and horrible. Bye.

No. I just happen to agree with their viewpoints, haven't seen anything that I believe are " out of bounds and horrible," which is why I'm asking you to quote at least 1. I'm not even being sarcastic, I'm legit curious to see these comments. 

Also, as a proud Lebanese, whose family had to flee Lebanon because of all the turmoil the EU' and the US' involvement in this region has caused for the past century (?) and which continues to this day, I take great offense to being labelled an idiot, a fucktard, being in a Trump-like cult, or whatever hurtful insults you're all hurling at us just for trying to bring some semblance of empathy for the Palestinian people who are in an absolutely impossible and horrific situation and have been way before what happened 1 week ago.

My Netanyahu?? Who says I care for that bastard? You don’t even know where I’m from.  They’re both horrible! And for the record, trump is actually much worse (especially had he won a second term).

That other poster was non stop throwing passive aggressive insults. It was so rude. 

[promise to try]

so what´s happening now? I have read something about netanyahu mentioning the atomic bomb, also Turkie being angry with israel, south korea saying that north korea is planning the same with them...I guess it´s going to be impossible to know what the hell is happening

have you heard about the artist Jorge Drexler? he is an amazing singer-composer-musician from Uruguay, and he is jewish. He has posted his thoughts about this mess, and I think I agree with everything

With all due respect, I just went through their comments since I hadn't actually read through all 7 pages of this thread, and I haven't been able to find a single rude or passive aggressive comment. On the flip side, I just did the same exercise with your comments, and here are some highlights:

• Their way of thinking politically, socially, economically, religiously needs to change. 
• You’re the one with no shame here constantly defending these horrific crimes against Israel 
• You don’t follow her, yet you’re on a message board that only talks about her. Ok. yes, You’re a genius.
• So stop discussing it. Go to a message board where people read and use google.
• We Madonna fans are clearly not intellectually stimulating for you. So feel free to go elsewhere with your pompous attitude and excuses for terror
• This is exactly what antisemites and bigots do. They post some stupid shit that a stupid moron did, and attribute it to an entire people.
• I definitely don’t answer to you. It’s similar to talking to a Trump-like supporter in a cult. 

If I said the above highlighted in yellow about people who follow Jewish religion--which disclaimer I DO NOT BELIEVE IN, but just trying to flip things here to highlight the thinly veiled racist undertones in your posts--I would be labelled an anti-semite and I would be cancelled.  

Every single one of your posts includes some form of micro aggression. How exhausting.

Yes I was responding to the rude things he said. If you don’t agree, thats your opinion and that’s fine. It’s beyond me how you have personal time to go through pages and pages of comments and create a post like this. All for me? Really? Like who cares….

At this point Netanyahu could bomb them with nuclear bombs and erradicate them and governments would be silent.

BUT…

This time there is social media and people are being more aware of everything. NATO is already criticizing Israel counteroffensive, the EU Foreign Representative is already telling Israel to stop and the UN is publishing the situation and asking for help for Palestinians.

There’s surely turmoil inside the EU Commission. First unilaterally one member says help to Gaza is cut. Then they say that man can’t decide. Then Ursula says the EU supports Israel right to defend itself. Then Borrell has to come out to tell her she can’t decide that all alone. Then the help to Gaza is tripled. I’ve never seen such a mess since Gaga’s launching Artpop.

This year there were a lot of terror attacks. Not something big like recent events. In these attacks 36 Israelis were killed

Previous year 2022 was similar with 31 Israelis killed

Here’s a video I found to be very well done and informative: 

 

[whyme?]

This is a list of terror attacks against Israelis since the mid-1990's when they were trying to make peace with the Palestinians. Instead they got suicide bombing after suicide bombing. The list is unbelievably long - full of mass murders against innocent civilians. This part of the story needs to be told too -- that country has suffered so much. And this doesn't even include the tens of thousands of rocket missiles that were shot at Israeli cities since about 15 years ago (which is why the list gets shorter after 2010). And of course doesn't include the third largest terror attack in history that happened a week ago. Palestinian leadership has to change for the betterment of its people and security needs to be granted to Israel. Thereafter, they need to split into two countries as per the pre-1967 borders (even more land can be given to the Palestinians if security is granted).  Otherwise, there will never be peace there.
