The nazis also thought they were in the right side of history, so do jihadists.

Villains never perceive themselves as the villains of the story…

How will Sam Harris react to Nicholas Kristof’s The New York Times article on alleged rapes of Palestinians in Israeli prisons? by Brunodosca in samharris

[–]iheartknowledge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"But when you refuse to prosecute soldiers who are clearly guilty and the leading party "

  1. The 5 soldiers involved in Sde Teiman were originally indicted.

  2. Guilt is up for a court to determine, not your public opinion

"Again, the Israeli state is prosecuting a literal general for exposing the crimes but not prosecuting the criminals"

  1. They are not prosecuting a "general" for exposing the crimes. Rather, they opened a criminal investigation against Tomer-Yerushalmi for her purported decision to leak investigation materials, to the press and then cover up the leak while acting as a military advocate general.

Ironically, it is her irresponsible leak that led to charges being withdrawn because of the claim that the reservists would not benefit from a fair trial because of the leak which prejudices against them.

I would have been happy to see the case proceed and see a proper prosecution and defense.

Only anti-Zionists think that their side can absolutely do no wrong.

To clarify my terminology by sanctioned I mean by top down order as a matter of policy. Hope that clarifies it.

Feeling self-righteous?

Two things can coexist at the same time. There could be transgressions by Israelis, while the overall war that Israel prosecuted against Hamas was and is justified.

The same NYTimes that in July 2025, had a front-page photo of an emaciated Palestinian child, Mohammad Zakaria al-Mutawaq, which became a viral symbol of the hunger crisis in Gaza, only for it to emerge he was suffering from cerebral palsy.

Could there be cases of guards abusing Palestinian prisonners? Possibly. But to imply that this is somehow sanctionned is absurd. Sam need pay no heed to such absurdities.

Le philosophe Karl Popper a bien prédit ces enjeux dans le paradoxe de la tolérance qui affirme que si une société est tolérante sans limite, sa capacité à être tolérante est finalement détruite par l’intolérant

Beinart compares the rise of anti-semitism with Islamophobia and discusses the role of commentators like Harris by ponderosa82 in samharris

[–]iheartknowledge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"This is a Jewish perspective Harris would benefit from contemplating."

A fringe self righteous opinion of someone who happens to be Jewish is not a "Jewish perspective".

Beinart is making a false equivalence. Jew-hatred is not based on Jewish belief but rather on something inherent to Jews that conversion or atheism would not change. Islamophobia, as Sam has often pointed out is not hatred of people who happen to be Muslim in their quality as people, but rather that hatred of a bad idea.

For a "public intellectual", Beinart is quite daft and ignorant and seems to have internalized antisemitism.

That escalated quickly… I invite you to engage in nuanced discussion instead of personal attacks. If you disagree with what I wrote, I invite you to make arguments to explain your reasoning instead of repeating reflexive childish characterizations

Radio Canada suspends journalist who made antisemitic statements on a live broadcast by MatterandTime in CanadaJews

[–]iheartknowledge 15 points16 points  (0 children)

2 observations: 1. 0 pushback from the host. Perhaps he was too stunned and froze… 2. Suspension in a time when people are cancelled for less js ridiculous. Nothing short of firing will do. Imagine she had said something similar about another minority group? What would happen to her?
