At least according to this study, almost all Israelis are monsters who openly support genocide.


I wouldn't be surprised if the results of a poll for actual genocide would be the same, but expulsion is not genocide. I really wish people would stop diluting the meaning of genocide at every opportunity.

Forced displacement and ethnic cleansing is a core component of genocide, you're making a distinction without a difference.

I am somewhat late, but you're completely wrong. To engage in metaphors, cutting someone is a core component of surgery. This does not make surgery, even if failed and lethal, murder. To engage your point, genocide does not require displacement, hence displacement cannot be a core component of genocide. Genocide is the eradication of a people. Moving a people does not eradicate them. There is no reason to conflate the two. (There is, but it's mostly for political reasons).

The surrounding Arab states already ethnically cleansed the indigenous Jews from the majority of the Middle East.

Israel put in a lot of work to induce Arab Jews to migrate. That includes false flag attacks on synagogues. Surprised you don't know this.

Synagogues such as..?

The Lavon Affair is a matter of public record, so definitely not out of character.

Yes, Israel attempted one false flag attack 72 years ago, intending to damage some empty buildings with no casualties. Still nothing to do with any synagogue.

Yes, the Zionist tactic is to attack, deny, obfuscate, admit but claim that it is not at all indicative of a pattern.

I only gave that example because it cannot be denied. The nature of such ops is to have plausible deniability, such as in the case of the 1950–1951 Baghdad bombings, despite the British, (the ones who are ultimately responsible for the modern state of Israel), concluding that:

"The British Embassy in Baghdad assessed that the bombings were carried out by Zionist activists trying to highlight the danger to Iraqi Jews, in order influence the State of Israel to accelerate the pace of Jewish emigration. Another possible explanation offered by the embassy was that bombs were meant to change the minds of well-off Jews who wished to stay in Iraq."

but there are other examples[1] demonstrating this is not something that is so unlike Israel as you seem to want to portray.

Jews and arabs lived there peacefully together for hundreds if not thousands of years ... until the British arrived and started their games...

Which is a reasonable position, given that the Jews within this specific locale are mostly homicidal maniacs.

Given the context, Palestinians wanting to kill every last Israeli Jew is a totally defensible position. It’s a natural reaction to a band of murderous European invaders coming to occupy their homes.


Right. So you are pro-genocide yourself, but only of certain groups of people.

I would imagine that other powers of the world would support some kind of invasion if the strait were to remain closed for a long period of time


They will just pay the toll.


It's possible, in the short term, but eventually the only oil flowing thru the Strait of Hormuz will be Iranian oil, and perhaps not even that. Give countries enough time and they'll rather invest in building a way around Iran than giving them money for passage thru international waters.


The toll will be just a bit under what it would cost to divert the supply.


Well even today you have the UAE and Qatar warning them not to do this. It’s likely to me that the fighting won’t stop until the situation is different, even if the US were to pull out today.


They might support it in spirit, but an actual invasion of the US would be pretty difficult to pull off.

I can see sanctions though, maybe a re-shuffling of alliances where China becomes the world's default Adult In The Room.


Or they finally tell Trump to fuck off as he as no tariff leverage any more as their economies are cooked anyway?

It is funny watching economies like Japan -- where their new prime minister was fluffing Trump like crazy -- get fully screwed.


His idea of functioning poverty in that video seems to involve shanty towns and more "side hustles" for the poor.

His heart may be in the right place but he may be too rich for this conversation. He comes off as more than a little bit out of touch here


Are you saying observation about a situation requires a privileged or non privileged position?


Not at all, I'm just saying he has a shitty position
