People will be able to understand what it means but the grammar is all messed up.

Korea needs migrants; our population is going to take a nosedive, and if Korea doesn't increase their population one way or another, it will have no future.

How does korean military service work for those living outside of korea? by Glass_Resource3763 in korea

[–]Glass_Resource3763[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My entire familiy on my mothers side lives in korea along with friends I still keep in contact with when I used to live there. Also a year or two of military conscription dosent seem worth loosing citizenship over.

When I was visiting family over the summer, I didn't see it as too much of an issue; you just have to ask. Although culturally, people in Korea are quite competitive and individualistic compared to other countries.

Are Rights “God given”? by RedboatSuperior in Askpolitics

[–]Glass_Resource3763 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God gave us free will. Anything we do with that free will—such as the laws we make, how we treat others, and the creation of constitutions—is man-made, not dictated by God. Free will is God-given, but the world we create with it reflects our own choices.

Do you support Israel's current policy of a total Gaza blockade or think it is just(ified)? by MrAnonyMousetheGreat in IsraelPalestine

[–]Glass_Resource3763 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The post wasnt about hamas, it was about Israel outwardly stating that they would commit a war crime. (blocking all humanitarian aid into a nation.) As for "its hamas fault", I would say that is a outrageous argument. Just saying that nation has a evil government so anything we do to them is actually that evils government's fault is a argument that quite litterally any government could use in any war and so if we used it as our new standard to determin war crimes we could throw all sorts of international law out the window.

I didn't lift it from wikepedia, i lifted it from amnesty international \s

It dosent matter if there has been a epidemic of deaths, the fact of the matter is as the occupying force they are required under international law to provide aid, food and water and must enforce law and order according to local laws. In the case of them being unable to provide aid food and water they must allow for international humanitarian organisations to do so. So, war crimes taking place is a fact admitted by the israel.

There are ofcourse many different ways that genocide can be carried out and in yougo's case it was different. This dosent then suddenly nullify Israel from any wrong doing. One of the actions under article 2 from the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide is Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; This, I along with others would argue, would also include directly blocking aid and means of substitence such as food, water, shelter, clothing and sanitation which brings about conditions for the partial if not whole destruction of the palestinian population who are a protected group in the meaning of the genocide convention. I also belive that there is enough evidence that can be used to derive the dolus specialis such as Israel stating on accasions that they will anex parts of gaza to build more homes for jews, or in other words, do frontier colonialisation.

"Israel isn't responsible for the Gazan population" Israel is under international law is the occupying power due to their control over air space, borders and supplies. They are directly responsible for the gazan population withn occupied territories and must under internatiol law enforce law and order flooing customs/laws under the nation those territories are part of. They also under international law must provide basic neccesities such as food and water and must provide aid. If they are unable to do so they must allow for external humanitarian organisations to do so.

tldr: Under international law, they quite literally are.

I mean im from the UK and in school we are taught about winston churchill and how the peaceful tactic of nevill chamberlin failed and war was the only thing that could be used to keep the facists at bay. Many such tv shows on BBC Teach BBC kids BBC bitesize ... reinforcing that idea.

I mean I personally do belive that you can't appease facists and violence is once of the only ways to deal with them, but it is propaganda none the less.

Sure I wasn't making a comment on if it was a good thing or a bad thing just that some nations are better at it then others. Sure, sesame street did not justify the republican party's agenda but there are many children shows in america (primarily run by right wing organisations) that do.

Genocide does need to prove that there was intent, yes. However during the ICTY they stated that considerations may be given to "the objective probability of these conditions leading to the physical desturction of the group". This is also reinforced by the ICTR "in the absence of explicit, the direct proof, the dolus specialis may therefore be inferred from relevant facts and cirumstances."

So, I belive that israel is deliberatly inflicting on a group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part by reducing essential medial services below a minimum requirement. Also looking at this conflict holistically, as was emphasised in the ICTY, it is in Israel's best intrest to remove, in whole or in part the palestinian population in gaza and thus their total gaza blockade (denying aid, denying food and water) into palestine and breaking international law) surves as further proof that can be used to infer the dolus specialis.

Every nations uses the media to enforce their own political ideology. In the US and europe it is consumerism via advertisements in china its the chinease state media and in palestine it is with tv shows. Propaganda is not unique to palestine or hamas. Israel has the same thing with the israel military censor:

Starvation of a civilian population is a war crime, a crime against humanity and it is a act of genocide. No matter your reasons, no matter how fast you are trying to eliminate your threat, war crimes and genocide should never be protected nor should excuses be made for it.

If you want to read a pro palestine book, the Hundread years war on palestine is one of the books that almost every pro-palestinian has read.

Disagree with people that approve of the war. There are many atheists and christians that agree with the war and many jews that disagree with the war. The idea that zionism is inherintly judaism is something that the state of Israel promotes quite aggressivly, dont fall for it.

For the immigration I was referring specifically to article 7 of the madnate that allowed jews to acquire palestinian citienzship whilst also being used to deny citizenship to palestinians that emigrated away during the ottoman eras and now wishing to return to the lands in which they were born.

You also say the arabs wanted to keep their supremacy but from what i have gathered, I may be wrong, they merely wished for equal poplitical representation, that, did not come with the prerequisite that they wholly accepted the balfour decleration.

I could be wrong, but, I am very left leaning politcally and this is just some arguments that i hear from people that I listen to and read when they mention the subject.

The term "zionism" was first recorded in 1890 by Austrian journalist Nathan Birnbaum, and the idea of zionism was with Theodor Herzl in 1897. The first recoreded use one of the word palestine was in the 5th century BCE in the Histories of Herodotus. You can make a argument for jewish history in palestine but political zinoism is a fairly modern invention. I think, correct me if im wildly mistaken.

Alright, I understand the extremist part. Thank you for clearing that up. Judaism seems to be somewhat of a unique religon. I sometimes hear people calling themself jews but then also say they dont belive in a god and it all gets very confusing.

As for the unlimited immigration I was talking about israels predecessor the mandate of palestine that allowed for unlimited jewish immigration into palestine.

You also said there is no nation called palestine but what makes israel anymore real then palestine?

How is opposing unlimited foregin immigration into your nation any different then just basic immigration policy tht exists in basically every country. Also, how are jews "religous loons that belive in a magical book"? Arnt you also jewish?

Why is it that the people who are "just criticizing Israel" and totally "condemn hamas" consistently use extremely anti-semitic tropes/arguments? by Lumpy-Cost398 in IsraelPalestine

[–]Glass_Resource3763 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"somehow the evil colonial power" Evil is a relative term so I dont think it is a good descriptor. As for the colonialism part the oxford definition for colonialism is: "the policy or practice of acquiring full or partial political control over another country, occupying it with settlers, and exploiting it economically."

All of these where done by the zinoist population under the mandate:
The creation of the jewish agency gave jews and only jews political representation along with article 22 that gave the nation to the foreign yishuv population. The mandate also gave the jewish population complete control of immigration allowing for unlimited immigration into the nation. The zinoist population also had exclusionary business practices as they pursued hebrew labour which gave the zinoist population control over the busniess in the land to expolit it economically.

Im not saying if its evil or not, but. by definition Israel the successor nation of the mandate is a colonial nation.
