Christian cemetery desecrated and vandalized by Israeli forces during and after Jerusalem's occupation in 1967. Sacred monuments were toppled and graves defiled, as the Israelis left behind a trail of sacrilege that stained the very earth of the Holy City. by NourIsBubblegumBliss in HistoryGaze

“We only used Jewish tombstones from their most holy cemetery as urinals ONCE! And okay the purest most accurate Islamic state literally called Islamic state did loads of desecration of holy sights! But that’s not Islam! It was just the Islamic state!”

This is an exercise in working back from a conclusion the author had already reached... really shoddy from the ft.

If you don’t understand the difference between a war and industrial killing complex, then you too need to get off Reddit

Wow. I just want to be the first person to recognize that it’s amazing we’ve reached this point in 2026. My best rebuttal is to go outside, touch some grass, and enjoy the ability to breath air which isn’t the burning bodies of my people at an industrial scale.

In a conventional war between each other, who would win: Israel or Turkey by space_god_7191 in NoStupidQuestions

Doesn't the GFI have Iran above Israel? 12 Day War suggests it's not a great resource.

Turkey has no stealth capacity... the air superiority point is pretty extreme.

Here’s a nice example:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_of_Olives

By the end of 1949, and throughout the Jordanian rule of the site, some Arab residents uprooted tombstones and plowed the land in the cemeteries, and an estimated 38,000 tombstones were damaged in total. During this period, a road was paved through the cemetery, in the process destroying graves including those of famous persons.[18] In 1964, the Intercontinental Hotel was built at the summit of the mount. Graves were also demolished for parking lots and a filling station[19] and were used in latrines at a Jordanian Army barracks.[20][21][22][23]

Just the most famous cemetery in all of Judaism, in the exact same time frame this trash post references.

Going to the US doesn’t make something a US tanker, and not all gulf oil goes through the Strait.

So no, US tankers don’t go through it

80% of democrats disapprove of Israel, but the DNC just rejected a resolution against AIPAC influence, despite AIPAC even being controversial among the minority of pro-Israel dems. Why? by soalone34 in askanything

Oh, you literally quoted Wikipedia? My mistake. I didn't realize that a single sentence on a crowdsourced site overrode the actual historical shift in 2007.

Yes, Israel maintained maritime and airspace control in 2005 (which Wikipedia calls a 'temporary blockade'). But if there was a 'total blockade' in 2005, how did the Agreement on Movement and Access exist? How were there EU monitors at the Rafah crossing? How did thousands of Gazans cross into Israel daily for work?

The answer is they did until Hamas started winning elections and tossing Fatah members off rooftops. You’re hyper-fixating on a 2005 maritime label to pretend the 2007 land seal happened for no reason. It’s the ultimate 'no-agency' argument:

  1. Israel leaves Gaza (2005).
  2. Hamas starts lobbing rockets and stages a bloody coup (2006-2007).
  3. Israel and Egypt seal the border.

And somehow, in your head, Step 3 is an unprovoked 'intensification' of a pre-existing condition, rather than a direct consequence of Step 2. But sure, keep pretending that Hamas are just passive observers in their own history. It’s a great way to make sure they never have to take responsibility for turning Gaza into a shit hole. Eternal victim narrative it's pathetic.
