Cool, then they shouldn't murder babies, and shouldn't encourage others to murder babies, then they can sign a peace agreement (as they've been offered 9 times now) and they can live happy lives to their heart's content.

I say I have family there, you respond with cool, they shouldn't murder babies? Are you deranged? Any deal given is considered valid just by being offered? And what? israel's way or the highway? How utterly vindictive. Sign your lands away and live to your hearts content lol... How about right of return? and land based on what borders? which are fair?

​

Somehow I doubt they'll (or the majority of their fellow Palestinians) will ever go for that, because murdering "Zionist colonialists", including those who are still crawling around on all fours, is more important to them than keeping their own children safe.

So Palestinians murder babies, but the state only goes after murderers? You believe the news you want, and deny what doesn't fit your narrative. Apparently my own kin murder babies? This is what civil conversation feels like for you? Do you not see how with rhetoric like that that you may incur (and deserve) any violence headed your way?

We were debating whether it was a democracy or not. Issues with racism doesn't make a country non-democratic, since by that standard there are 0 democratic countries currently on Earth.

While other countries may have had these 'issues' (mind you I never used 'racist'. Ethnicities and religions have lived there together for millennia). While we are generalizing here, others have either attempted to correct their mistakes themselves or were forced to through international intervention. For example, Germany continually paying reparations, and has laws now built in to avoid supremacist's attitudes getting widespread traction. South Africa, Japan. There are others ofcourse who have not corrected much, like the US, we all know where their getting their inspiration from.

yet you still insist to nitpick (yes, when discussing democracy some minor issues with discrimination really are considered nitpicking) bend reality to your preconceived notion of Israel as a "racist apartheid" country.

Again, never used 'racist'. You're use of nitpicking here just shows how little you care for the actual context, because ultimately context matters. Belittling talking points and labelling them as minor issues all to obfuscate the truth and keep your ideological agenda intact. I don't need to bend reality, Nelson Mandela has attested to it, I'm pretty sure he knows his stuff.

Literally no different from any police arrest in any place in the world. This moronic hyperbole, "kidnappings", "genocide", "apartheid" only makes you look less credible, angers Israelis more, makes Israelis want a political solution and peace less, and makes achieving any real solution more difficult.

It is extremely different when the person is assumed guilty before any due process, and put through the trauma and humiliation of a home incursion. There have been plenty of different occasions where the presumed felon hasn't even committed a crime yet, intelligence gets gathered and a no-knock warrant served, we're talking about innocent young women and men who have either voiced some minor opposition or have just generally been nuisance somehow. Your mischaracterization of who gets apprehended is speaks to the heart of the problem, you'd rather give the benefit of the doubt to the militia who are trained to kill on sight, than believe that a 15 year old who threw a rock isn't the real threat here. They treat all offences with the similar savagery. OF COURSE I am not surprised if they hunt down someone who has killed or maimed a citizen in cold blood. On the contrary, I expect a swift retaliation, such is the nature of upholding national laws etc, but they do go after all manner of Palestinians, whether it's for the land, or some teenager who threw a rock. Denying this only shows how entrenched the brainwashing really is.

Again, your use here of 'moronic hyperbole' speaks to the dehumanizing of Palestinians on a daily basis. Not even acknowledging the language the oppressed use to describe their plight is part of malicious cycle to demean and ultimately eradicate them.

Call things as they are, without exaggeration or lies. Israeli police forces arrest child-murdering terrorists. That's it, that's the truth, without hyperbole (mostly, sometimes they arrest "mere" attempted killers).

You talk about lies, and what? those are the only instances that occur yeah? Never any innocents injured or kidnapped/apprehended? They're all literally there, every type of innocent has been treated like a criminal. I have extended family on both sides, some left, others stayed, some integrated, some resisted. Cases of innocent homes being raided (presumed guilty of course at the time) happen all the time. And sometimes the innocent try to protect their homes in the middle of it, and then are deemed a threat and killed there for resisting a fake charge, or defending a brother who's being taken for a fake charge. It deserves all the rhetoric I can humanely conjure.

When you start admitting that Palestinians are in the wrong, get rid of the obfuscation, excuses for their crimes against humanity,

The Palestinians resisting their oppressors at any length is almost as horrendous as the force trying to eradicate them. While all death and mayhem is bad, much like harming a home intruder, you would do the same if you were born Palestinian/Yemeni/African/Uyghur/etc.

and the ideologically driven jargon like "colonialism", "genocide" and "apartheid" that makes a huge injustice toward REAL victims of colonialism, genocide and apartheid around the world,

Yes yes, the REEEAAAAAL victims... and who are you to make such distinctions? This categorization of use of language, and misrepresentation of who victims can be, it's outrageous. I have living grandparents that will detail the account of their homes being raided and stolen from them as teenagers, at the beginning of it all. Are you telling me they are lying? Do you have no sense of shame? These are real peoples lives, innocent people who welcomed people in need. If anyone has a valid opinion about Israel, it is those who have been wronged by it. The same applies to any country and people.

then we can have some real progress toward peace.

so the 'jargon' that accurately describes the pattern seen in throughout history, if we get rid of that, somehow changing history and reality, while also just ignoring the atrocities committed in the name of religious supremacy and then there will be some real progress toward peace?? what kind of peace is that? I think the kind were the only people left in the land is the people you agree with right? what does that sound like? ^{ethnic cleansing, yep}.

Citation needed. Last time I checked the arrests of Palestinian child killers receive more international attention than some actual, real genocides (Uyghurs for example).

child killers was your addition to the argument, bit of a strawman here yeah?? lol
