Can we stop this tarring the whole society with the same brush?


I’m good thanks, I’ve read enough polls and seen enough of how much their people treat Palestinians to think they’re a civilised bunch. There’s not much different between them and ISIS.

Are you telling me that you avoid a whole group of people because of what you read in a "poll"?

the silence is deafening considering he's active in other threads.

Why would I avoid them? I see them every day where I work.

so you mingle with them?

Nope, I provide them with a rental car.

so you only interact with a group of people because it is your job?

This is why you can't avoid them. And your intellectual dishonesty stops you from answering my question properly.

Outside of your job, do you avoid them because of what you read from "polls"?

I don’t know any Israeli nor do I live near an Israeli so how would I be avoiding them exactly?

So you don't know any Israeli people yet you consider "them" to be as bad as ISIS... you are better than this, Arab.

Brexiteers want brown people out of the country because of extremists. How do you feel about that (I am assuming that you are indeed "Arab" as your original username suggests)? Is it justified?

Yep, if they genuinely gave a flying fack about how Israel treats Palestinians they wouldn’t have elected a genocidal psychopath as their leader not once but twice.

And if they genuinely cared for the Palestinian cause they’d have been protesting at their countries inhumane treatment of them for the last 70 years, but not a peep until now and that’s only because they want the hostages back. Unless you’re deluded enough to think that the protests are also about how many innocent Palestinians have died.

There’s been multiple if not hundred of polls and surveys that point to Israeli’s not wanting a two state solution, and a considerable majority recently answered in a poll that the IDF raping and torturing the Palestinians didn’t deserve a severe punishment.

Trump was elected due to fear, and his campaign message lies. As was the vote for Brexit.

This shouldn't be news to you.

Yet you have dismissed a whole group of people because you consume one sided media. You are blind in one eye.

Strange that I don't consume the rhetoric that extreme Islamists are the norm.

Isn’t public opinion in Israel in favour of the atrocities the state are committing? Not sure that’s quite the same as generalising a whole group of people based on extremists.

So you’re telling me they’re thick as mince or in ‘fear’ to elect Netanyahu twice? And this is despite the multiple corruption allegations he’s got facing before he was elected again.

Why weren’t any of them protesting this extensively during the 2014 war btw when thousands of Palestinians were slaughtered? That’s just one of many examples in my living memory of a long drawn out genocidal campaign waged on Palestine. Why has there been legitimate surveys of Israeli’s not wanting a two state solution? Which is funny given the land was stolen for them and THEY’RE THE ONES BEING ASKED IF THEY WANT TO LIVE ALONGSIDE THE ORIGINAL INHABITANTS!!

Isn’t public opinion in Israel in favour of the atrocities the state are committing?

Of course it is ffs

Just so we're clear, I don't care about sides. All I understand right now in this sorryarsed situation is that someone in political power is using the situation to keep himself in power.

I too want the hostages released. There is only one person who wants a military solution. There is currently an Israeli vocal majority who wants him to agree to a deal.

And just to let you know WooHoo, this ain’t just an Israel thing. I couldn’t stand this country for 15 years because the people I share oxygen with kept electing the most incompetent and evil set of politicians to run us into the ground.

There is currently an Israeli vocal majority who wants him to agree to a deal.

Can you answer me this, do they want a deal because they want the last few remaining hostages home on top of the ending to Palestinians being slaughtered for fun? Is that what you seriously believe?

I genuinely believe if there wasn’t any hostages being held in Gaza you wouldn’t see a peep on the streets of Tel Aviv.

If Netanyahu was really the only one that wants this he would have been deposed a long time ago. There’s huge governmental, military and civilian appetite for what Israel is doing. Surely this is obvious? These kind of actions don’t just happen at the behest of one man.
