We also need to correct the misinformation about ‘from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free’ being antisemitic and/or being about the end of Israel.

It’s really not.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So what is your understanding?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Having spoken to people on the three pro Palestinian marches I’ve been on in recent weeks they all insist it’s just as simple as wanting freedom from the river Jordan to the Mediterranean Sea.

Nothing at all about eradicating Israel. Just the freedom to exist anywhere from the river to the sea. The right win Media will have you believe it’s some evil chant. Quite the opposite.
......
But geographically impossible without the end of the Israeli state, so it's use is naive and plays into the hands of the media....imo.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I don’t think any of the protesters should worry about playing into the hands of the media tbf. The fact they don’t have the freedom to exist in a lot of that area is a reflection of the apartheid they suffer so the chant is really a protest chant rather than some kind of jihadi cry of death etc.

Songs about freedom sometimes are just that.

Obviously not obvious as that is my point; your idyllic scene would never happen.

You don't know that and my idyllic scene is more reasonable than thinking the bombs that created Hamas and have failed to eradicate Hamas for decades will now eliminate them. More likely to make things worse and that's pretty obvious.

Negotiation and reconciliation is the only way to long term peace.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Couldn’t agree more but I think that ship has now sailed. The Israelis are not gonna do this by half measures.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Why has that ship sailed? Can you explain why?

On the flip side today in Sydney there was a huge pro Israeli march. Literally went for miles and was as peaceful as the Palestinian ones I’ve been to.

Because the corrupt Netanyahu is at the helm, and Joe Biden, despite this being what could be the defining point of a 50 year political career, is showing a lack of genuine interest and not putting his considerable diplomatic talents and reputation on the line, is my honest take.

I've yet to read a line or passage saying 'From the river to the sea' exclusively means 'Let's kill all Jews'.

If there's one out there, I'd genuinely like to read it.

Claptrap, Titty etc, please don't quote Suella Braverman.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It’s not about killing all Jews and no-one here is saying that. But it does mean the end of Israel. Suggesting otherwise is just exposing extreme bias or stupidity. Or in Nobb’s case - both.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Saying people should be free now means the end of Israel?

Are you saying that freedom and Israel existing are mutually exclusive?

You're trying but ultimately you're doing a terrible job of hiding your bias.

Because Israel are going to destroy the entire area that’s why. You think that will be forgotten and people will rush to the negotiating table?

SatNav has never been able to think for himself sadly. He just seems whatever Ben Shapiro does and parrots that. And right now Shapiro is having the ultimate meltdown on Twitter. Looks like Shap Nav can’t understand that Muslims are people too.

I think what Satters is saying is that to have a Palestinian state that stretches from the river to the sea, it would require perhaps a splitting of Israel into 2, and thus a perceived end to the Israeli state?

FWIW I don’t think it is intended to be anti-Semitic, and likewise from what I have seen and heard of the pro-Palestine and pro-ceasefire demonstrations I’ve seen, it has been about Palestinians having a nation free from apartheid oppression. I appreciate that some commentators will have their own takes on it though.

So Hector has the same bias then I assume? Why are you only asking me when he and I seemingly have the same opinion?

Your agenda is clear, transparent and boring.

It shouldn't matter to you whether Hector has the same bias before your own bias. Work on yourself first.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
You really do need to learn to read what people write as opposed what you write as an inaccurate summary of what they wrote.

I didn’t say bombs, I specifically said and I’ve said this to you many times: Israel is probably going on a drawn-out detailed destruction of the entire area which will take months and months.

I’m not saying it’s the right thing to do

I’m not saying it will work

I’m not saying that’s what I would do

I am saying that this is what I think Israel will do.




As for your claim that if you give Hamas everything they want the people will turn on them, castrate them and they’ll just disappear to be replaced by a more peaceful form of government, I think is deeply flawed to say the least.

I’m not bothered about either. It’s not bias, it’s just an opinion that I hold. The fact that Hector holds the same opinion demonstrates this.

For you an opposing opinion to yours means bias, honestly how childish can you be?

For normal people it just means that someone has a different opinion on something


It’s you who should work on yourself bro.

======
Perhaps you are correct or perhaps not. But one thing nobody can deny is that you are badly biased and have been from the start. Even the angles of your random comments are just riddled with subliminal Israel sympathy and support, something which continues to come out even though it is clear and you admit what Israel are.

You admit facts but just maintain the same position in the end, even though you claim not to. You just can't help yourself and lack the wherewithal to overcome the emotional impulse in favour of the intellectual one.

=====
Is that what I said?

If you give Palestinians their rights, end apartheid and provide a path to statehood, they will have no reason to back Hamas. The shouldn't even have to ask for human rights as those are inherent, and their denial is why Hamas exists.

Your interpretation of that is I said to give Hamas everything they want. Look at how stoopid and biased you are. You can't even think straight. You've certifiably entered the genius realm now.

It does make sense when you think Israel are going to do what I think they are going to do.

Which again, seeing as you struggle to properly read what others write, will be a detailed campaign of destruction for months and months. Gaza is a very small place.

There’s no problem with that, it’s just what I think will happen. You just have a problem with differing opinions to yours. Actually that’s not true, you just have a problem with certain peoples’ differing opinions to yours.

You haven’t replied to black hawk’s earlier post, you didn’t reply to Hector’s opinion of what the phrase fro mine river to the sea means in reality.

I’m flattered that you focus so much of your energy on me but it doesn’t advance your arguments, it severely detracts from any valid arguments you may or may not have.
