My Imaginary GF posted:"Survive the Shoah, get your house taken over by the Soviets and lose everything? Quit colonizing, that land with safety isn't yours." Survivors of ethnic cleansing don't get little gold tokens from the ICC entitling them to do it to someone else. They stop being the victims when they start oppressing other people who had nothing to do with it.

botany posted:No it hasn't. Of critical importance to international support has been American willingness to overlook the violence against Palestinians inside the occupied territories, which has little to do with laws inside Israel proper. Otherwise you'd have seen way more protests about Jewish-only roads, etc. The only thing that matters is the ability of western governments to close their eyes to direct violence, discriminatory laws that don't result in bodily harm have very little impact on that. Jewish-only roads?

emanresu tnuocca posted:Polls published in Maariv predict Likud would win 22 seats if the elections were to take place right now, they currently hold 18. It doesn't really matter either way, every possible coalition would have the exact same policies when it comes to Palestine. Would they? Judging by what Ynet and the Times of Israel have been posting, and by his manoeuvring over the nation-state bill, Netanyahu seems to be trying to ditch the relative moderates in his coalition and tie himself tighter to the far-right zealots. If that plan goes through, I can see Israel's Palestinian policy getting even more brutal and far less apologetic for/euphemistic about said brutality.

This was alluded to earlier in the thread, but Gaza is presently under water and the UN has declared a state of emergency. Just in case, you know, you were thinking it looked like a nice place to move to.

emanresu tnuocca posted:Netanyahu has probably the most messianic Israeli politician holding a top ranking spot in his own party, Moshe Feiglin. All in all Israel is following the strategy secretly laid out by Netanyahu and Sharon in the early 2,000s, Bibi is acting exactly in accordance to the strategy he shares in the "secret recording" of a private meeting he had with that settler family which is exactly what Sharon said (paraphrasing) "Build now, build on every hill top, cause wherever we build we get to keep, the rest they will eventually have". This strategy seems to appease the messianic right, keep the world out of Israel's hair while radicalizing our the Jewish population to the point where they grow more sympathetic to the settlers. Got a source for that conversation? I'm having a tough time digging it up.

The changes in Muslim rhetoric he's pushing for are ones that would weaken his opposition and allow him to tighten his stranglehold on his country. He's a really, really bad example to use.

You're missing my point. Hezbollah is an Iranian-funded militia that is heavily responsible for propping up Assad's government, along with actual Iranian armed forces. The Assad regime has killed an order of magnitude more people and demolished an order of magnitude more real estate than IS, despite the latter's fearsome reputation and fervent desire to be seen as the most evil dudes on the planet.

You guys had the chance to do the easier two-state way, now you get to go the more difficult one-state way. Good loving luck, and try to start treating the Palestinians better than we did the Native Americans. Hint - a Netanyahu-proposed one-state solution does not mean reaching out to Palestinians, but ethnically cleansing them even more thoroughly. We may well see a dent getting put in that enormous Palestinian population growth soon.
