When you find yourself listing the ways you're better than Assad it's time to stop

Kim Jong Il posted:You can also look up what Hamas did in 1996, when peace was arguably at hand, and Hamas worked really hard to elect Netanyahu over Peres with their bombing campaign. That directly led to Netanyahu gutting Oslo. They are right wing ethnonationalists who benefit the most from Gaza being in misery and permanent war. The only reason there was even an election in the first place was because the pro-peace Prime Minister was assassinated by right-wing extremists for signing a peace deal, which directly led to Netanyahu gutting Oslo, because Israeli right-wing ethnonationalists are the ones who benefit the most (by far) from Gaza being in misery and permanent war. Putting the blame for Israel's deliberate undermining of the Oslo Accords on Hamas is downright ridiculous. Why is it that Israel is never responsible for its own actions?

Grape posted:There isn't even a drop of good faith in him, ignore him completely. I like to highlight all the historical events he leaves out of his narrative, for the sake of everyone else reading the thread. For example, in addition to the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin, he also failed to mention Peres' extremely unsuccessful invasion of Lebanon a month before voting day.

Even if Hamas deliberately got Netenyahu elected, he's not literally Assad so it's obviously fine

FlamingLiberal posted:One Palestinian woman activist who was interviewed on Chapo Trap House recently said that she believes the only path forward is a one-state solution and that a two-state solution is effectively impossible now thanks to the settlements. I had not previously agreed with that point but she makes a strong case that even if you had an agreement right now, you could not build a viable Palestinian state. There's also the annexation precedent in the Golan Heights, which is what I think the eventual annexation of Area C (and much longer term, the West Bank as a whole) might look like: annex the territory and offer residents of the area Israeli citizenship, knowing relatively few will accept the offer in the short term. As time goes on though, younger generations slowly start to apply for Israeli citizenship in greater numbers, in the interest of better job and travel prospects. This attitude is already starting to happen right now in East Jerusalem: https://972mag.com/east-jerusalem-palestinians-are-ready-to-take-back-their-city/136186/ quote:Much has been written on the “Israelization” of Palestinians in Jerusalem. More young people are getting their Israeli matriculation certificates.

Is KJI seriously going to argue that the settlements are illegal under Israeli law? If they aren't willing to enforce that law under any circumstances then it really isn't illegal.

I also want to point out that even the "pro-peace" Prime Minister believed that the settlements were necessary.

zapplez posted:The current status quo is incredibly hosed. Maybe I am way too naive about things but I actually think peace is possible (god, i hope so) and neither sides are helping. Of course one is more accountable because of the power disparity, but there is more than enough bloodshed to feel sick by actions of both sides at times. The problem you, and many others with similar views, have is that you're acting like both sides are responsible, or at are comparable in some manner. This is not the case. Israel is fully responsible for peace not happening, period. There is no middle ground here, any more than "well some slaves did bad things" was an argument against ending American chattel slavery.

He should have been ousted then, and it's sickening that he isn't and still has support. He could wear the uniform and give the salute with an actual swastika behind him and people itt and in real life would still defend him, Likud party members would still cheer him

Not even KJI has gone so far. We all know he's terrible, and defending Hitler is honestly real low on the list of reasons to dog on him.

If they aren't willing to enforce that law under any circumstances then it really isn't illegal. That's not what I meant. The large settlement blocs are legal *under Israeli law*, and most of them Israel will likely keep the bulk of them in any deal via land swaps. Hopefully not Ariel though. I'm talking about the random outposts which are a handful of people in trailers that an overwhelming majority of Israelis despise. When you look at this map - while indeed that's the extent of what's happened, the overwhelming majority of the landmass are temporary structures that are easily destroyed and withdrawn from. The actual reality of permanent Israeli settlement looks more like the concrete proposals they have made to the Palestinians, like this: Obv. there are other issues like Israel wanting to maintain a presence in the Jordan Valley, which I oppose.

The fact Israel keeps building settlements tells you everything you need to know about Israel's commitment to peace. Imagine if they stopped building settlements as long as hamas has stopped suicide bombings.

Israel toyed with their supporters by changing the checkpoint that they would be released at 3 times today, but Ahed Tamimi and her mother are now out of prison. https://mobile.twitter.com/aishagani/status/1023462165750018049 She served one less month for slapping a soldier than Elor Azaria served for shooting a downed Palestinian assailant execution style.

I, personally, can see no danger in further alienating a tight-knit minority which you have spent decades training and arming, often in tight-knit brigades, and which has strong connections with members of this minority in neighboring, hostile countries.
