You should support an American war with Syria, otherwise you're in the company of white supremacists. Ha! Read the comments on the story- there's some very un-white supremacist sounding names in there.

Ali: everyone's a white supremacist anti-semite
If they oppose Israeli plans.

Rami: Not only alt-right people claim that that the Syrian attck is "fake news".

Oh, but we're supposed to believe (according to the Israeli press) that Israel is abhorred by the sick and dead children that were gassed in Damascus!

Well...here are the Palestinian children that Israel killed, in 2017 alone:

These Israelis are just assholes. They expect us to believe that they care about Syrian children suffering... well how many more will suffer if Trump is goaded into bombing the hell out of Syria? Why are Americans not 'woke' to any of this by now???

Because many Americans don't know or care. I have at least been to Syria in the past and do know what kind of things actually go on over there.

Though I will say its mostly been people on the right that care more. While I see more than enough people on the left that seem to not even acknowledge that anything is going on over there.

We on the Left do give a damn...but we also know that "doing something" isn't always the best choice - or do you not recall a certain illegal and unwarranted invasion of the nation next door which caused several hundred thousand refugees to come settle in Syria, and that the migration of those refugees (and the social friction they caused) was one of the major factors leading to Syria's civil war?

Yup, seen more then enough about it and its still just as idiotic a move on everyone's part as the first time around.

Palestinian children killed, no doubt, because Palestinian terrorists were using them as human shields?

Yes, Israelis are such jerks to want to defend themselves from terrorism.
 
I find the whole Syrian situation to be abhorrent tbh. All sides using it as a proxy to further their own interests and the people there used and abused , battered and slaughtered beyond belief . It's sick , really sick.

It's an age when " humanitarian intervention " is the new cloak used to conceal naked aggression now the " Cold War " has ended with the collapse of the USSR.

Everyone's pointing fingers and crying "terrorism , barbarism" etc etc whilst indulging in or supporting those very same things. I have struggled to see any proof that the elites of any nation care about the people of another enough to indulge in wholesale warfare for " humanitarian " reasons. I do feel that there's plenty of evidence , however , to support the "intervention" ( read aggression ) to further geopolitical ends which usually involves widespread media hype and coverage of the "poor " whoever people to garner public support for this or that aggression followed by near post conflict silence about their plight , a plight that is nearly always very much more devastating as a result of the " intervention " itself.

People should bear the above in mind BEFORE they decide to support any action carried out by their own state against another. You don't have to research very hard to discover the obvious hypocrisy of it all .

'Declares Israeli Press'? What is your point? This subforum had seen plenty of nonsensical threads filled with empty drivel during the years but this surely takes the top, what in heavens name were you even aiming at here?

I'm not even going to address your reference to a group that includes Islamic terrorists as innocent children. Hilarious.

Israel is full of ****. How's that?

The kids that Israel murdered last year don't look like terrorists to me at all. They look like any teenagers I might see in my own neighborhood, as a matter of fact. I'm sure the Israeli press says differently, but like I said earlier, they're full of **** & lying any time their mouths are moving.

Yes, Israelis are such jerks to want to defend themselves from terrorism.

The jerks are us; we've been loyal to Israel for 70 years, yet they're not loyal to us whatsoever. Israel doesn't care if their little agenda gets people killed in the US, Europe, and Middle East. So when Israel says these children were terrorists, I'm not very likely to believe them.

There may be good reason too why the left doesn't seem to care. Out of the Top 20 American political recipients of donations from the Pro-Israel lobby for 2017-2018, 15 of them are Democrats.

Israel's "little agenda"? You mean trying to stay alive?

Even a flatworm is accorded the right to self defense. Unless it's Jewish, of course.

Israel is democratic with a free press. The Israeli press is not monolithic. They have papers there that delight in reporting Israeli government wrongdoing, especially when it comes to killing children.

The Palestinian government is dominated by terrorist thugs, and they have nothing more than a propaganda apparatus. A person would be a fool to believe what they say.

I'm not familiar with all of the details surrounding their deaths. Electronic Intifada have given some details, but without researching other sources to check accuracy, it's not really appropriate to offer thoughts there, without more information, either way. No good can come of that. There are some other links in the article that deal with medical treatment/availability in Gaza that I am very familiar with that is deliberately being misrepresented. That's not cool on their behalf at all.

don't look like terrorists to me at all

That's a very strange comment to actually make. What does a terrorist look like to you?
 
Israel is full of ****. How's that?

Hysterical, dumb, self-humiliating, take your pick.
You're basically referring to as "Israel" something that was said by some journalist who is Israeli, just how dumb is that? How crazy? How hilarious honestly.
And to top it all it's Ha'aretz you're talking about. A far-left anti-Israeli news source that borders on self-hating antisemitism most of the time in its editorials.

I'm not even talking about what they're actually saying because of how meaningless it is (and because they have a paywall) compared to the fact that you've opened a thread to attack Israel because you were insulted by something some journalist on an Israeli far-left website said. Oh yes and by those comments on that website too. Too funny.

Why should anyone care what they look like to you? A 17 year old Islamic terrorist who tries to murder other kids and teenagers and women with knives and other weapons should be shot, if you believe Islamic terrorists should not be bothered when trying to murder their victims that's your own hysterical opinion but then again no one should care about it. That's what happens when you read terror websites like the electronic intifada.
 
Israel's "little agenda"? You mean trying to stay alive?

That's not their agenda. They've wanted regime change and destabilization in the Mideast for over 20 years. They got their wish in Iraq, which caused 4,400 Americans to lose their lives, and retaliatory terrorist attacks like the one at Fort Hood in 2009.

Even a flatworm is accorded the right to self defense. Unless it's Jewish, of course.

Blah, blah, blah. When will people learn that no one buys this false narrative anymore? Of all the oppressed minorities living on earth today, Israelis are not one of them. It'd be great if American evangelicals would actually bother to research what's been going on in the Mideast, before blindly taking the Israelis side, and falsely thinking that Israel appreciates their support.

Israel is democratic with a free press. The Israeli press is not monolithic. They have papers there that delight in reporting Israeli government wrongdoing, especially when it comes to killing children.

You mean there are Israeli journalists who actually report both sides, without assuming that non-Israelis are "dogs & pigs", and therefore not worth mentioning? Hmm, that's a novel approach.

The Palestinian government is dominated by terrorist thugs, and they have nothing more than a propaganda apparatus. A person would be a fool to believe what they say.

What exactly do you expect? Europeans masquerading as the 'returned tribes' have oppressed the Palestinians for 70 years.

Hmm, so the staff at Haaretz are antisemitic too now? Interesting. I guess the modern definition of an antisemite is someone who doesn't think Israel is entitled to do whatever they want, whenever they want.

It's par for the course that these people would invoke the name of prejudice in order to garner sympathy once again. They've turned all this into a billion dollar industry after all. I'm hoping the world sees through their deception this time however, and there are favorable signs that suggest many do.

That's just a straw man argument, nothing more. In fact, I don't know that those dozen or so children were armed terrorists trying to butcher anybody. You probably don't either, but hey, they were just Palestinians so who cares, right? Isn't that the prevailing attitude in Israel?

Specifically, how is Israel disloyal to the US? And what does being loyal to another nation state even mean?

The article seemed pretty fair in my estimation, and included Israel's version of events for the deaths of the teens that Israel labeled as terrorism related. How did EI misrepresent information about medical treatment in Gaza?

They use our system against us, to get us to fight proxy wars for them. These wars don't benefit the 99% of Americans who pay for them, with money and lives.

Come on gunner, you know what loyalty means. Without the USA, Israel wouldn't exist. They repay us by co-opting our House of Representatives, conducting espionage against us, and getting us to fight their battles for them.

This simply amounts to them "Jooos" controlling everything. Are you seriously suggesting that?
 
How did EI misrepresent information about medical treatment in Gaza?

You posted and linked to an article "These are the Palestinian children Israel killed in 2017." In that article there was also this comment;

Palestinian children also died because they were unable to secure permits to leave via the Israeli-controlled Erez checkpoint for medical treatment unavailable in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Check on that comment link and go to;

https://electronicintifada.net/content/my-child-died-my-eyes/21236

I've added some of my own thoughts to the commentary.

In that very article, Ashraf al-Qidra, (a spokesperson for Gaza’s health ministry), said that the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank “deals with us in a malicious way.”

When patients in Gaza require treatment outside the Strip, their cases are referred to the PA’s headquarters in Ramallah (West Bank). The PA (Which is obviously not Israel,) has delayed signing off on hundreds of such cases over the past few months. No reasons have been given for the delays, al-Qidra added. Twenty-two patients have died so far this year awaiting permission for treatment outside Gaza, according to health ministry data. Nearly half of them were children. The true number of deaths is likely higher, however, as the ministry is not aware of all cases.

Three-year-old Yara Ismail Bakhit, who had a heart condition, is among the patients who have died because they have not been able to get a Palestinian Authority transfer out of Gaza.

Patients requiring transfer out of Gaza have to deal with different layers of bureaucracy. Even when patients are referred to hospitals inside Israel, their applications for travel permits go to the Palestinian Authority first. Bureaucracy bull****. That shows complete and utter disregard of making any genuine attempts to help these sick people in a timely manner. Their inactions are beyond disgraceful. These are Palestinians treating their own people like crap.

But EI want to blame Israel. I will never understand how those who pretend to care about their own people are so reluctant to point blame at the Palestinian Officials who continue to treat their people in such a heinous way. When are they going to hold them accountable.
 
Palestinian children killed, no doubt, because Palestinian terrorists were using them as human shields?

Yes, Israelis are such jerks to want to defend themselves from terrorism.

How big are Palestine and Gaza compared to Israel and its allies in Saudi Arabia and Egypt? (That is a rhetorical question which I already know the answer to.)
 
Antizionism ≠ antisemitism.

Israel ≠ Zionist

I see where you're going but you do realize that Israel has a sizable population of Arab-Israeli members of their Knesset, yes? Supporting Palestine from a place of Anti-Zionism is not only unfair to Israel, but Palestinians as well. We must not forget that Israel, as in the People of Israel, Israelis, Arab-Israelis, etc are not the same as some of the Saudi-Egyptian and NATO assets embedded in the government in Tel Aviv to steer Israel into their sphere of influence (only Antisemites and racists will claim it is the other way around), and Israel has some of the best gun rights and best rule of laws (Netanyahu was almost imprisoned, and still may be) in the world. The main issue I see is Egypt, not Israel.
 
I was watching a news video of what was being sold as the gas attack in Syria. In this video, there were mostly young men running through a cloud of white gas or smoke, but nobody seemed to be collapsing. Whatever was being used, was not an effective gas.

In retrospect, this may not have been gas, but a smoke bomb. The video may have been using the smoke to create the image of a gas attack; fake news. I am not sure who made the video, but it appeared on a network station. Chlorine gas is yellow-green and distinct.

When I first saw the young men running through the gas and not being too affected, I thought may be chlorine gas had been blended with smoke. The purpose could have been something one might expect. Chlorine is a good anti-bacterial agent used to disinfest. The besieged civilians probably have major hygiene problems, due to lack of running water and sanitary facilities. A moderate chlorine and smoke cloud could help disinfect their clothes and skin, as long the concentration does not suffocate them. W e wash clothes in bleach, which has chlorine to disinfect.

In ancient times, Israel, originally known as Jacob, was a real person. According to the Hebrew Bible, the Twelve Tribes of Israel or Tribes of Israel (Hebrew: שבטי ישראל‎) were said to have descended from the 12 sons of the patriarch Jacob (who was later named Israel) by two wives, Leah and Rachel, and two concubines, Zilpah and Bilhah.

The land of Israel was given as an inheritance to his sons, with Judah, the patriarch of the Jews, one of the twelve sons. If the Old Testament is important, the original inheritance gave the Jews a large track of land centered near Jerusalem. The rest of the land of Israel actually belongs to the other 11 siblings.

I am not a genealogist, but at one time the Jews and Arabs had a common ancestor. DNA studies show that both have common ancestral DNA. I was wondering if the Palestinians can be traced back to one of the other 11 tribes? Also would it make sense to find the other 11 tribes and divide the land like it was promised in the bible? This can change the dynamics.
 
Hmm, so the staff at Haaretz are antisemitic too now? Interesting. I guess the modern definition of an antisemite is someone who doesn't think Israel is entitled to do whatever they want, whenever they want.

Just a moment ago you claimed they themselves were 'Israel'. A very dumb and pathetic attempt. Self-humiliating as I described it.

It's par for the course that these people would invoke the name of prejudice in order to garner sympathy once again. They've turned all this into a billion dollar industry after all. I'm hoping the world sees through their deception this time however, and there are favorable signs that suggest many do.

Haha 'these people'. You can keep hoping, the racist ideology that was defeated in the 40s is quite the minority.

That's just a straw man argument, nothing more. In fact, I don't know that those dozen or so children were armed terrorists trying to butcher anybody. You probably don't either, but hey, they were just Palestinians so who cares, right? Isn't that the prevailing attitude in Israel?

No it's not, and yes we do know it just like we know what Dylann Roof or Stephen Paddock did. Just say that you believe Islamic terrorists should be allowed to murder Jews instead of all this beating around the bush.
