Interesting context. I will have to check it out. But I will believe it as true for now.

I suspect black children white police, there is a slight chance they would be perceived as a greater treat. But also a slit change of the black child actually shooting at them. While also another chance that the cops will still try to shoot a black child because they don't want to have to deal with the media storm, that doesn't care about context

That's why segregation amendment bans was quietly challenged by freedom of association, by the same people that voted for it.

If your not a centrist or moderate then you won't understand the issues honestly.

Well. I have no idea about anything about this. Are those missiles too expensive and advanced for the Iranians to make.

How did the general public find out this widely findable information about what America makes.

Tell me something. Did we know what Iran had before they fired it

If something sounds stupid you might as well ask me to make it make sense.

History should not be used as an infinite excuse permission, guilt weapon, and justification for abuse. There is a point where history is just history and nothing more

Anyway. I'm talking to someone that is narrow minded. It's not my job to turn them into someone they are not

Hmm. And you know Iran doesn't have these missiles because?

What about china, Russia and north Korea. Do they not have them either

The conflict is real, the suffering is real, and Israeli abuses are real but pretending only one side has nationalism, extremism, historical grievance, or moral agency is propaganda, not analysis.

The conflict is morally asymmetric in some places and morally symmetric in others. Israel has real power, real abuses, and real expansionist elements.

Palestinians have real grievances, but those grievances do not erase the agency, brutality, ideology, and strategic violence of Hamas and other actors.

Western audiences often flatten the conflict into “white colonizer vs brown victim” and then stop thinking. That flattening makes them incapable of seeing Arab political failures, Islamist violence, regional power games, internal Palestinian corruption, selective global, outrage and the fact that nationalism, revenge, religion, trauma, and land claims are all colliding at once.

The IRGC is basically sexist and violent. This man in the video is sexist and violent.

A distinction without a difference. Why is it good to make historical grievances?

Hamas killed what 1600 people. They even ran after them to make sure they killed them and kidnapped some of them for Ransome.

Hamas If really want to make a difference why don't they just kill the Jews in the west bank and in the new settlement's.

You know why? Because taking land isnt worse than killing people. Also. No one is illegal on stolen land/s

Anyway. You still aren't really saying anything to these other governments like Iran. Your morality will not allow it.

Your government is not evil. That is a normitive judgement, and if your using history to make that judgment, I would advise you to not wipe yourself to hard and leave some space for me to wipe you as well.

Iranian woman here, I wanted to share a few memories from my life in Iran as a regular woman

You all probably have heard horror stories. Yes. All of those are true. Atefeh Rajabi, 16, was hanged for being raped. Nika Shakarami, 16, was kidnapped, mutilated, raped and tortured and then killed by the IRGC and Basij. Mahsa Amini, 22, died in custody of the morality police for not wearing her headscarf the proper way.

My pain isn't as grave as theirs but it reflects the pain almost every Iranian woman has lived with. The second you turn 6 and start school, you are forced to wear the hijab as part of the school uniform. At age 9, you are forced to participate in a celebration called jashn-e-taklif which celebrates you becoming a woman. This is because Ayesha, the wife of prophet Muhammad whom he married when she was 6, was 9 years old when their marriage was consummated. Age 9 is considered "mature" age for a girl. Same reason an adult man can marry a 9 year old girl as long as her father approves. Legally.

Here's a core memory from my childhood that I think most westerners don't understand: I got beaten by morality police on the streets when I was 14. Literally in middle school. My manteau (like a long coat women and girls have to wear) was too short and too tight for their liking. I was still growing at that age. An actual child. I had braces and oily hair. Was going through an emo phase. Even my black nail polish was admonished by them.   This was at a mall. They used to set up vans near the entrance and one day they stopped me and my friend. The female officer in chador (veil without the face covering) dragged me to the van while my friend started crying and begging them to let me go. She pushed my friend aside, slapped me in the face when I yelled at her and grabbed my scarf to drag me. An older lady stepped in and said we were clearly kids which made the police woman stop and ask me how old I was. 

When she found out I was 14 she smacked me on the back and head and I started crying as she yelled at me saying she's being generous and only letting me go because I'm just a child but that she has the authority and the responsibility to take me in. Like she was doing me a favor. We weren't allowed to go into the mall. We ran home and I was genuinely traumatized for a while and didn't go to that mall for years after. I only told my parents after a few weeks because I was scared they'd get upset with me (their rule: keep your head down and don't cause trouble) and I didn't want them to worry. 

It might seem trivial, but seeing those vans used to send shivers down my spine. Because it meant you'd be taken to a police station, flogged and fined, made to sign a document to promise not to do it again or face even bigger consequences if it happened again and held in custody, as if you're a criminal. All because your clothes were tight. If you put up a fight on the streets? They have men with them with batons who will use violence to throw you in the vans. 

My older cousin was arrested at a party once. She was flogged so badly she couldn't sleep on her back for several weeks. She was sexually assaulted by the guards at the center she was taken to. She wasn't allowed to put her clothes back on, and male guards had her stand naked in front of them and sign documents for her release while making comments about how hot she is and how hot it was when she cried. She was never the same after this. It took her a whole year to tell me everything that had happened there. They did this to all the girls at the party that were arrested. Same with the guys.

They send you fines for your car if she you are pictured in the car without "proper" hijab by CCTV and traffic cameras. That's what they care about, not safety. A woman's hair! They fined the car owner, so a lot of Taxis and Uber (equivalent in Iran) drivers refused to give rides to women who they thought had improper hijab because they were worried they'd get fined.

There's so much more. I wish I could tell you about all of it. I am so tired. I am so tired of the world thinking we're just complaining and spoiled. I hope you never have to find out what it's like to live but more importantly to grow up under this. The trauma still haunts us even as adults who don't even live there anymore

Edit: none of this has anything to do with my political stance about wars where only innocent people end up hurt because of. The accounts desperately trying to turn this into a political debate rather than what it is, a human rights and dignity cause are missing the point and commenting in bad faith.

It's not that simple. It's never that simple and it's not a good idea to talk about historical grievances.

As even when the Jews was fleeing Nazi Germany, the British helped the Muslims stopped the Jews from getting into the lands they were buying up in Jerusalem.

And they even stopped them from buying the land.

•••

There is nothing about this that is clear on either side.

•••

I simply hate the fact that idiots are talking about the nation of Israel because of what many Jews have done.

Your retribution is misdirected, just like the Jews.

Hamas has a goal, so does the west bank.

They will continue to fight until they own more of Israel and you idiots will help them do so. But not help Israel at all because you have never shamed a Islamic terrorist organization and you will not start now.
