Was this "Arab citizens of Israel protest the vote" a natural occurrence in that community or is it a disinformation campaign like what happened in the US in 2016?

If you think about it, every slave rebellion was actually bad. Taking people's property outside the legal system? I think you'll find there were bad people on both sides.

Anyone hear about this? Supposedly some Israeli settlement advocates backed by Israeli police stormed Al Aqsa, but I can only find one source on it that I do not recognize.

This is an absolutely fantastic example of "proof you can't do anything". The entire world, including at times the US, considers those occupations of Palestinian land by Israeli groups to be illegal and a violation of international law. All B&J's is doing is not selling ice cream in those specific areas. That even this extremely targeted and mild protest is getting this kind of pushback is the international equivalent of the Bors cartoon where you're not allowed to protest, you're just allowed to die.

HootTheOwl posted:Dumb question: But if you don't sell in occupied territories and do sell in Israel this only stops Palestinians from buying right? I don't think Palestinian sections of the West Bank count as occupied, but also did Israel let Palestinians have ice cream in the first place?

Yeah I'm not sure why I should assume Israel lets Palestinians have anything in Gaza or the West Bank, but if the question is "doesn't this mean no Palestinians get Ben and Jerry's either" that includes people in Gaza, who have a very strict embargo imposed on them.

Just as an update I looked into it and from what I am seeing the consensus is that this distributor didn't distribute to Palestinians areas anyway so all the takes about this only negatively affecting Palestinians who want ice cream are apparently bunk.

Had an odd debate on reddit- to the extent you can debate anything on reddit- where I was trying to expain that there is an entire system set up in the Israeli government to take over Palestinian land. Their proof that there wasn't a systemic attempt to take Palestinian land was a Israeli Supreme Court decision that said Israel had a right to Palestinian land.

Missile interception doesn't make sense, since it doesn't solve the "Hamas doesn't have powerful rockets" issue, and I don't think intercept munitions have the kind of playload/force to cause the hospital explosion.

I think it's fair to say that, if you drill down enough, you can make average citizens of any country complicit for the larger group, which is precisely why you shouldn't justify the deaths of any civilians with "well technically they're complicit because they vote/they didn't stage a coup/some other thing".

People were ethnically cleansed from homes their families have had for hundreds of years, 1000 year old olive trees were taken from generations of the same farmers, but yes this is actually a constant battle going on for 4000 years. I think some people believe time goes diaspora immediately into crusades, and the crusades ended in 1947.

Every time I think Biden can't say something grosser about Israel than he already has I am proven wrong. Even more galling than the "actually Jews in the US, the country I am president of, are not safe", there's the obvious fact that Israel has made the world less safe for Jews in the diaspora.

Nameless_Steve posted:But the health ministry reports to Hamas and has repeatedly falsified data and reports before to suit Hamas propaganda. Especially after they were caught inflating the death toll of the Al-Ahli parking lot bombing by 450+, the media should have stopped reporting their numbers at all instead of merely including that disclaimer. When did they confirm that 950 people died in that bombing?

This hand wringing about how Israel must be allowed any response to 7/10 specifically because of all the innocent people that died rings a little hollow when Hamas had a better military to civilian kill ratio than Israel does in this current conflict, and all the Palestinian civilian deaths are dismissed as something that just happens in war, so sad too bad. Much like the kidnapping posters that are still up on 85th Street of the people Israel killed while they were surrendering, it feels like propaganda to allow for whatever autocracy Israel chooses to do how dare you question us, regardless of how hypocritical it is.

Kchama posted:I'm not sure what language you speak that can stuff so much meaning into a single word? In the plain Arabic he says "Jews", not "the Jewish Elite". If there's that much to be inferred, I don't think a non-Yemeni could divine it. It really comes across as you trying to shove your own meaning into what he says to try and protect him. I don't think he'd appreciate it. I don't speak Arabic, but I speak Japanese, and there are grammatical principals in Japanese where adding an inflection or the sound ん to the end of your word basically puts a whole sentence of context behind it so I wouldn't be so quick to be flippant about the idea of language packing a lot of meaning behind seemingly small, innocuous changes that don't show up on Google translate.

No it's weird and gross, and the only thing it is producing is a lot of side eye from the lurkers here like myself. They specifically brought it up asking for heavy sanctions on Israel so that loss of life was halted on both sides and the reaction to that sentiment was completely disproportionate and jarring, attacking generic people rather than the governments commanding them. I wonder what some of the people here would have said to someone [e: that had family die on both sides of the American Civil War] Yawgmoft fucked around with this message at 23:55 on Feb 2, 2024 |

Owling Howl posted:Not giving a poo poo about a war is the standard norm though and the war in Gaza is mainly abnormal in the coverage it gets. In Congo M23 is effectively besieging Goma, a city of a million people. Half a million people have died in Sudan/Ethiopia over the last 2 years. Haiti is practically a failed state or in a defacto civil war. Not a single soul in the West gives the tiniest nano-poo poo. There's a difference between not really knowing/caring about a conflict at all, and going out of your way to excuse the actions of one side of a conflict and disparage the other, which is more my experience with IP than straight indifference.
