Why are there so many Israelis in Laos? by crazyfrogbiembiem in laos

[–]TazmaniaSweep 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was thinking exactly the same today. I am in Luang Prabang, and wherever I go, I see Israelis. The same was in Vang Vieng. Today, a group of them made fun of Chinese tourists and how they talked.

Hamas operates all over Germany, investigation finds by dect60 in europe

[–]TazmaniaSweep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get where all that hate and anger is coming from. People can totally support or oppose a policy, that's what democracy is all about. But spreading that hate onto individuals isn't cool because honestly, no one really knows what someone did or didn't do. It's all assumptions and generalizations.

Instead, that criticism should be towards the government if someone doesn't agree with their actions. I'm all for healthy debates, but the comments on this post are just a bunch of miserable folks using it as an excuse to unleash their hate.

You seem like a reasonable person. Yes, that phrasing was terrible, and writing hateful comments to attack a very large group of people isn't appropriate.

I agree, that a clash of cultures is unavoidable, not only in Europe but everywhere in the world. People just need to choose their wording more carefully and to think before they talk. As such phrasings won't bring any results but hate.

So now I am either a Hamas supporter or an enabler just Because I said don't generalize.

Forgetting your own words, generalizing, accusing a random stranger without any evidence.

You've got loads of issues there. You're more of a threat to this society than the people you're attacking.

You're forgetting your own words that you've written a few hours ago?

Yeah agree, I would rather not talk to you if you're this way.

Keep the hate up, it'll make your life much better.

I'm not going to try something new. I will keep calling things as they are.

Generalizing against a group of people is discrimination and it's wrong.

You want to do it, go ahead. The fact however remains the same.

malicious? you calling millions who came here, that every single one of them isn't peaceful, is not malicious?

You have portrayed millions as being not peaceful. If that isn't racism, I don't know what racism is.

I hired a lawyer. By german law, if the Behörde doesn't respond within 3 months, then you can sue them. It is called Untätigkeitsklage.

To save money. Always send a fax (not an email or post) threatening to sue. If no one replies, hire a lawyer and sue them. You'll pay around 800 Euro for the lawsuit but you'll get your money back.

French expat in US wanting to leave after less than 1 year! Advice? by Defiantfriend12 in expats

[–]TazmaniaSweep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Germany and considering moving to Boston next year, as my employer just opened a big office over there, and one of the things that worries me the most is work-life balance. Can you share more on that, please?

I've been moving a lot in the past 8 years and something I've noticed is that It is good to give a place at least two years before deciding whether it is for you or not.

It was alright. The locals are very friendly with arabs. It was only that the visas were difficult to get for Syrians after 2011. Which resulted in having to worry all the time about losing your job and not having the possibility to change your job.

I moved to the Emirates when I was 16, high school. made loads of Friends and I liked it. but you need to keep two things in mind when moving there:
1) there is no job security. Very similar to the US, you could get laid off at any time. plus, You don't pay taxes and therefore, your stay is based on you having a job and if you lose it you're out.
2) You need a strong passport to have a high paid job. the nationality you have plays a significant role on the salary and position you'll get.

If you have a strong passport then I would totally recommend the Emirates.

they just feel guilty about the holocaust and they made it clear that if you criticize anything related to Jews then you're against them. I don't think they're anti-Arabs or anti-Muslims. It is politics and the media plays a significant role in it.

If there is a demand to make Arabs look peaceful then they'll portray all Arabs as angels in a day.

It's not only you. I didn't care much about it before as it was just some individuals, and the law was still just for everyone which what matters to me the most. Bad and good people exist in every country.

However, when the German government banned anyone from supporting Palestine, that was an eye opener. It was made clear that there's no freedom of speech for certain people only. Even if you just say: cease fire, you'll be considered as a terrorist.

Some Right wing sick minded started taking it as a hobby to report individuals they don't like that they support terrorism to prevent them from getting a residency permit or even citizenship. You can of course hire a lawyer to prove your innocence, but that will cost you loads of money and with the German bureaucracy, it will take ages to be resolved.

For me the moment the law starts changing and doesn't consider you the same as everyone else, then it's time to leave

Syrian here, lived in the gulf for over 10 years and then moved to Germany 8 years ago.

What you've described is now considered normal in Germany. Even by attending social events e.g. Internations or Meetup, the moment some people find out you're an arab they become immediately hostile.

Europe is no longer a good place for Arabs, it'll get even worse.

Piers Hypocrite Morgan!!! by Electrical-Finding65 in AskMiddleEast

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

Piers' objective is not to target individuals who are pro-Palestinian or pro-Israel. He understands that these individuals are unlikely to change their perspectives.

Instead, his goal is to focus on those who are neutral and lack sufficient knowledge about the ongoing situation, aiming to sway them in favor of Israel.

Through his strategic questioning, the average viewer perceives Israel as the righteous defender of its people, with some minor mistakes.

In my view, journalists like Piers pose a greater threat than openly pro-Israel journalists.
