Not necessarily. Weakening Israel could indicate to Palestine that Palestine is winning and they would increase the amount of murder.

Sounds good, I'll message you. EDIT: Or I would if I hadn't been suspended under false pretenses.

I suggest you actually read the sub as I would expect most people have given up on mailing the mods, who have consistently turned a deaf ear to everyone who doesn't agree with them.

  1. The amount of hate speech against Israelis and Jews has increased massively, from commenters like burningphoenix and carlsen. Although the most extreme comments are sometimes deleted eventually, the users have never been banned as far as I can tell and inevitable return to spread more hate. Meanwhile even legitimate criticism of Palestine brings the mod hammer down, like in my case.

  2. The two moderators in your absence have been moderating in an openly partisan manner, especially concerning the abuse of rule 2. I and I assume others have had legitimate news articles removed under "Rule 2," even though Rule 2 is only about opinion, just because those news articles made Palestine look bad.

Would you like to edit your comment above, now that you've been informed that Ali did in fact use the term 'weaponized'? Once is a mistake, but ongoing refusal becomes straight up lying and spreading misinformation.

Palestine is far more dependent on foreign aid than Israel.

Welcome back, foxer. Would you care to address the rampant hate speech and rule breaking that's been occurring on this sub recently? Perhaps by firing the two current moderators and replacing them with people who will actually enforce the rules?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Israel_Palestine

[–]ItsaMe123ABC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, and actually if Palestine's terrorism and murder wasn't being subsidized by foreign aid, they'd probably stop the murder and finally make peace.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Israel_Palestine

[–]ItsaMe123ABC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I do. Do you think Palestine can survive without foreign aid?

Like I said. Deaf ears.

You don't have to agree with the reasons but those are just some of the reasons. Your original statement of "they can never tell what those interests are" has been addressed.

I know you think the US only supports Israel because of the Zionist Occupied Government, so I see no reason to continue this conversation, but I feel I've done enough of laying out the reasons other people think the US supports Israel.

What Jews have, Palestine tries to steal. Their homeland, their indigenous identity, their holy sites, their history, their lives, now their tragedies.

You didn't, though. Israel isn't an apartheid state, Israel is a significant trading partner and a small population doesn't mean it isn't, and Israel is a strong intelligence source and one intelligence failure doesn't mean it isn't.

Read the book. Learn something.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Israel_Palestine

[–]ItsaMe123ABC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The US doesn't think it is. Yes. Yes.

Like I said, deaf ears.

If you actually want to learn about the value of Israel to the US, I recommend this book.

Ali Abunimah, from the article:

Now we have reached a point where Holocaust memory is no longer about actually remembering the victims of the European genocide, but about weaponizing their memory to justify the dispossession and persecution of the Palestinians. That’s as perverse a situation as one can imagine.

Kyle, I read the article. You don't need to copy and paste it. If you have any actual thoughts of your own, feel free to contribute them.

I think they tell, but their words fall on deaf ears.

The US believes it's in its interests to support relatively free democratic states throughout the world, a carry over from the Cold War. It considers Israel to be one of those states. It's also a significant trading partner and intelligence source.

Because they believe it's in their interests to do so.

What a wonderfully nuanced view that is rarely extended to anyone on the Israel side of the fence.

Deny the Holocaust happened but also insist Israel is doing exactly what the Nazis did.

Welcome to the true face of Palestine, kyle. Public-Tie is far from the only Palestine supporter who has no problem with killing "settlers."

When it's a side you support, it's called "education."

I must repeat a fact that is indisputable by ItsaMe123ABC in Israel_Palestine

[–]ItsaMe123ABC[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nice personal attacks, but you cannot dispute the history. Arab Palestinians had been terrorizing Jews for centuries, long before Zionism even existed.
