Mister Bates posted:the Mennonite church in the US is in the process of schisming right now over the younger membership - who are an increasingly large percentage of the total - taking the wider organization on a hard left turn, particularly on issues of gender and sexuality but also on issues like this I haven't followed Mennonite church politics in some time but this isn't at all surprising, it's been a long time coming. (And it's good news)

My old Mennonite college used to do semesters abroad in Israel (one of several options for a "cross-cultural" requirement that was in retrospect layered with the implicit assumption that students there were absolutely made of money). Knowing the professor who was running those trips at the time, they were definitely not "Israel is blameless and holy" indoctrination sessions, he was generally on the right side of things even in the early-mid 90s. I have no idea if they still do those trips now, or if any of their students are there at the moment.

Al! posted:one of the reasons i think liberals are so kneejerk about burying their heads in the sand this time, is that this cant really be blamed on trump, and in fact a lot of the current situation has to do with obama Aside from those extremely stable geniuses trying to say that Trump gave Putin Iron Dome specs which he then used to sell out Israel to Hamas.

mcmagic posted:It's incredible that people just accept that "so we had to blow up a hospital" is a good logical follow up to this. The decades-long push of "Israel Is Our Only Ally In The Middle East" combined with "terrorist = inhuman monster supervillain" really did a number on us.

Regarde Aduck posted:Again, why even entertain this when there is footage where you can hear the large ordnance whoosh in with speed and precision. Unless the shrapnel had the sound profile of say, a 1000lb jdam. Look, it's very simple, Hamas has magic superrockets where the shrapnel first teleports an ammunition depot into the basement of its target and then blows it up.
