Standing up for Israel

[Fizzadora]

So, they have got to MN now too.
I just managed to read the previous post before it got deleted for being inflammatory. Not to me it wasn't but then I don't support terrorists.
Many, many people do stand for Israel and not for Hamas (and by definition their supporters; you know who you are).

As is often the case with Israel's supposed democratic qualities, they don't extend to Gazans. The Israeli state has been blackmailing gay Palestinians and forcing them to inform or work as agents for them for decades now.

The pinkwashing of this conflict is so icky.

I can't edit the post - instead of " in Israel" I obviously meant "by Israel".

Selective comprehension

Or, exactly what you said.

Selective comprehension

This conflict is a religious one - if Israelis were Muslim there's be no conflict at all. Ignoring the fact that religion is the basis of the conflict is what is stopping the conflict from ending.

Incorrect. It's mainly about land.

There are a number of conflicts in the region between different Muslim groups. I don’t think religion is the basis of the conflict but it is making it easier for both sides to demonise each other.

Don't be ridiculous. Heard of Shia Islam and conflict with Sunnis?

No it's not.

And yet pp is still correct

It could stop today if Hamas laid down their arms and the hostages were released.

Is it a conflict that unites and energises the entire 1.8 billion Muslims in the world?

It doesn't have to be. It's serious enough.

And yet pp is still correct

It could stop today if Hamas laid down their arms and the hostages were released.

That wouldn’t solve everything though. Violence against Palestinians in the West Bank would presumably still continue? The current government in Israel would remain?

Nothing like getting things back to front. Israel is an apartheid state where people who are not ethnically Jewish do not have the same rights.

It really wouldn't.

I think you lost some words

If Hamas and Israel laid down their arms and Israel left Palestine then the whole thing would stop

If you mean me, then no I didn't miss anything.

One would result in the other

Occupation didn't begin in 2023.

Would you like to try and explain your comment?

Israel are internationally recognised illegal occupiers and have Gaza under an illegal blockade, they have shown no plans to stop being illegal occupiers when this conflict ends. They are pumping more and more money into illegal settlements. So it isn't a given at all that if Hamas lay down their arms Israel will leave. It is far more likely that if Hamas lay down their arms Israel will continue with their illegal treatment of Palestinians until the whole thing blows up again and Israel pretends to not know why this keeps happening.

Would you like to try and explain your comment?
Im guessing she means Hamas laying down their arms wouldn’t end the occupation of Palestinian territories (the West Bank)?
It wouldn’t resolve the issue of the Palestinians not having a state either.

About when occupation began....obviously.🙄

When the occupation began? Oh ok,
I think I know this one.

Go on.....
