The solution isn't to ship all Jews to an island. It's ... to not be antisemitic. I understand that this and saying "Israel needs to be dissolved" are utopia sentiments that won't happen. But that's what SHOULD happen. To be clear I'm in complete agreement with this sentiment. I'm a massive lib we love that secular state equal rights for all ****. I just don't think it's possible and I view dismissing alternative solutions as irresponsible and, its own way, as contributing to the continuation of the occupation and the esclation of violence.

Give up already. And I'm still waiting for the ATRL zionists to grow some balls and post from their main accounts. These dupes with less than 20 posts popping up daily here to post the most disturbing shite are getting boring and tired. "we’re murdering the terrorists among you" - says the terrorist. Lol this is exactly the problem. No one said that it justified the killing of Palestinians. Don't be so dense. And do you know who actually justifies the Oct 7 attacks? The many people in this thread who I quoted but you seemed to miss that didn't you? The echo chamber of it all. The only reason why I'm constantly bringing it up is that the fact that you guys keep denying it which you still are which is no surprise really. 'Debunked' my ass lol. 2 12

One thousand years ago, in 1023, it would have been Muslims that controlled what we now call Israel/Palestine. Jericho in the west bank, the oldest city in the world, was settled in about 9000 BCE, making parts of Palestine about 11,000 years old. Judasim did not exist then. Depending on the era, the shape and size of what was considered to be Israel changed a lot, and the lands that are considered to be ancient Israel (or Israel and Judah), did not include Gaza. This video is worth a look, from UsefulCharts on YouTube: * Who Controlled Jerusalem the Longest? Israelites, make their first appearance from around 1000 BCE, even though the Hebrew Bible did not exist at the time, so no-one would have called themselves Jewish back then, and then power shifted between various groups, including Persians, Greeks, Romans and others. Also, some of the splits between different populations mentioned in the video (e.g. at 18:30) applied to Jerusalem, not Palestine as a whole. Palestinian Arabs were still 90 percent of the post-war population when immigration of European Jews began to increase in the British Mandate period. You can draw your own conclusions, but there is no logical reason to thinks that white Jewish people from Europe should control Palestine. Just to be clear, I'm not saying every Israeli is a white person from a European background, but they do make up the vast majority of the political class. 1

If you want to keep any of your humanity which might help some members regain some general respect to everyone on here then yeah humor is important, and is used a lot by both Palestinians and Israelis as we speak, it's only the people who have nothing to get offended over attempting to get offended and secondly idc about the downvotes I just think if some people are gonna downvote certain other people no matter what they post or what they say it's one thing, the whole escalating it out of this thread is another. both aren't cute in my eyes so i have a right to call that out too right? maybe I'm just be bitter cause I can't be arsed to return all those downvotes lol 1 9

The fact of the matter is that we're gonna have to accept sooner or later that there are no alternative solutions. There isn't a magical number of dead Palestinian babies or huge marches all over the world, or boycotts, or long standing suffering that'll change the course of history. At this point, I think only a miracle will make this whole thing not end with a massive ethnic cleansing (after they genocide a little more) and the annexation of Gaza. I really f*cking hope I'm wrong.

I just don't think it's possible and I view dismissing alternative solutions as irresponsible and, its own way, as contributing to the continuation of the occupation and the esclation of violence. Dismissing reform for abolition isn’t irresponsible at all; that’s just an appropriate response to circumstance. Right now we have Israel objecting to simple calls, not even real proposals, for ceasefire. We can’t even anticipate reform because their massacre is ongoing and shows no sign of diminishing. It’s going to take a more radical solution to confront not just the scale and intensity of violence, but the impunity afforded to individual perpetrators and Israel as a vassal state. Now what that solution would be? I don’t know. And for what it’s worth I don’t oppose reform but am very skeptical. Funny that South Africa was mentioned because even as a nominally reformed state, the vestiges of apartheid are real and exist through lines of class/race and a justice system that rarely held perpetrators accountable to their actions (and in fact were given amnesty), and this can be a real outcome for a reformed Israel (that is, if we can even get to that point).

You are trying to be misleading. 2021 poll from Palestinian Center for Survey Policy and Research: Spoiler Support for the concept of the two-state solution stands at 39% and opposition stands at 59%. No description or details were provided for the concept. Three months ago, support for the concept stood at 36%. When asked about their preferences regarding a political solution for the Palestinian-Israeli conflict from among three specific solutions, one third (33%) preferred the “two state solution, the state of Palestine next to the state of Israel,” 16% preferred a “one state solution, from the River to the Sea, with equal rights to Jews and Arabs,” and 11% preferred a one state solution in which the status of the Palestinians would be “the same as the status of the inside Palestinians,” and 32% preferred other solutions, such as “historic Palestine,” or “full Palestine,” or “independent Palestine,” and others. Spoiler Support for the one-state with equal rights in the West Bank (30%) compared to the Gaza Strip (27%), among youth between the ages of 18 and 22 (32%) compared to those whose age is 50 years or higher (29%), among supporters of Fatah (45%) compared to supporters of Hamas and third parties (17% and 30% respectively), in villages and small towns (44%) compared to refugee camps and cities (26% and 27% respectively), among women (30%) compared to men (27%), and among laborers and students (36% and 33% respectively) compared to employees and professionals (24% each). Link https://www.pcpsr.org/en/node/866 I would like to see polling that presents a binary choice betwen a two state solution and one state with equal rights, of both Israelis and Palestinians. That would help shed light on our disagreement. 1
FOCK Posted November 4, 2023 Posted November 4, 2023 (edited) Hamas operating underground & utilising close combat tactics to effectively neutralise Israeli air forces & long range attacks, as they would then in turn harm IDF terrorists, confounded by the fact that they’ve all but reduced Gaza, an already difficult to terrain to navigate, into rubble, making it impossible for their tanks to manoeuvre if they were to go in… Just shows how stupid & incompetent they are. There is no tactical plan. Their strategy is purely that of rage & indiscriminate destruction. Literally the loser bully who cries to big brother after hitting someone (Jamie Lynn) who’s dimwittedness ends in his demise. Their soldiers are COWARDS, murderers & a laughing stock. And they’re so cut up about everyone seeing it now. They know that, and that’s why their war is on literal babies. Edited November 4, 2023 by FOCK 1 6
