The only winning move when speaking about the Israel / Palestine conflict is to not speak about it at all

At least on the Internet.

That should include Tibet too in the all occupiers must go sale

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

We gotta leave the US, too. And let the indigenous have their land back.

... I'm okay with this.

From effectively being a prison.

Both from the Apartheit colonizers as well as the islamist terrorist organizations?

[-] stebo02@sopuli.xyz 17 points 10 months ago

from the occupation of Israel?

[-] Rozauhtuno@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 10 months ago

Colonialism.

[-] rishado@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

go back to reddit if this is how you're gonna be

[-] OccamsTeapot@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

What do you think?

[-] tryptaminev@feddit.de 18 points 10 months ago

depend who you want to win. Looking away and keeping your mouth shut always works for the bad people. (bad as in violent, murderous, corrupt, greedy and so on.)

If the sides are Hamas and Israel I don't want either to win.

Maybe it's a really complicated situation with no good answers. The two state system doesn't work unless both sides want it. One state is also likely to just be the suppression of either Palestinians or Israelis.

So who should I choose?

Withdrawal of all US military aid from Israel; if they want to commit war crimes, let them do it on their own dime.

The only thing they’ve done is shot down rockets.

The only thing they’ve done is shot down rockets.

That's not even close to true. Even the Israeli government doesn't claim that.

TIL having an opinion for some is dangerous, but not even a matter of wanting to date a man 🤣

I am envious of my stepdad who can turn off his hearing aids without anyone looking at family dinners. Family members can be throwing the Trump this and Clinton that, and he's just 😐

[-] Zehzin@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Just start dissociating hard

The UK may be a liar, a cheater, a war criminal and a colonialist superpower, but it is not a porn star

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 24 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

a colonialist superpower,

Okay, Grandpa UK. All this fresh air is making you relive the old days. Let's get you back to the nursing home.

Australia and New Zealand are also their kids, but they're too far away to visit much.

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 28 points 10 months ago

The US is harder on ourselves about war crimes than we are on Israeli war crimes.

And we're not very hard on ourselves about war crimes.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 27 points 10 months ago

I can't tell if this is unaltered dialogue or not.

Nothing could possib-lie go wrong

[-] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago
[-] cmbabul@lemmy.world 22 points 10 months ago

And China… and the UK… and Saudia Arabia, this could actually go for a while

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 6 points 10 months ago

Yes, but we'll offer critical support for the others, not a blank check.

[-] cmbabul@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

I wanna be clear I wasn’t trying to make the US look good, just that the entire world is fucked and if you have enough money and or nukes you can do all the war crimes

[-] stebo02@sopuli.xyz 7 points 10 months ago

At least Russia got convicted for their crimes. America is turning a blind eye for Israel

[-] pimento64@sopuli.xyz 8 points 10 months ago

Inb4 some closeted elders of zion truther tries to say the flags should be switched

[-] Cannacheques@slrpnk.net 2 points 10 months ago

Draws penis on flag

[-] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 7 points 10 months ago

Palestine doesn’t commit war crimes, as an unrecognized nation it’s considered terrorism
