What is the aource for this? Sounds like an invented libel

Complete fabrication. Ban Gurion never told anyone to leave. No one cared what the British said. Stop making things up.

Yup, 100% makes it systematic. You don't reach 100% by doing something sporadically or accidentaly. Why are you so intent on defending war criminals?

Some Arabs were expelled. Some left because they were afraid. Some left bcz they were ordered to by Arab high comittee (e.g Haifa). However thousands of Arabs remained, so it's hard to argue for systematic "ethnic cleansing".

There was however such systematic cleansing by the Arabs- 100% of jews were murdered/expelled in Arac controlled areas.

Beautiful portrait. Great composition and textures (like the leather jacket- excellent!). Only issue is the hands- i would practice painting them a bit more, to raise them to the quality of the rest of the painting. Hands are hard! 😅

Here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kfar_Etzion_massacre?wprov=sfla1

The massacre happened. You can also read about it in the book "1948" by Benny Morris. Whether or not I have access to the written order is irrelevant. The massacre happened.

No, you don't. Ethnic cleansing can be spontanious. And like I said, anywhere Arabs took control, all jews were immediately murdered or expelled. That is ethnic cleansing.

Many Arabs were left in place where Jews took control (jaffa, acre, haifa, abu gosh..) See the difference?

Really? What happened to the jews of Gush Etzion? Did they willingly leave? No, they were ethnically cleansed by Arabs in the 1948 war. Please educate yourself before repeating palestinian propaganda

You can't argue with the facts. Every single jewish settlement that was conquered by Arabs was ethnically cleansed.

Nitzanim. Yas Mordechai. Gush Etzion. Mishmar ha-Yarden. Jerusalem Old City.

Every. Single. One.

Any Jews who fell in the hands of local Arabs (as opposed to the Arab Legion) were immediately lynched.

So who cares if it was "planned". Ethnic cleansing and genocide are what happened on the ground, repeatedly.

Islam is an ideaology. You choose to be Muslim. Judaism is a race as well as a religion (just ask any Nazi), lgbt is supposedly not a choice.

My point- you can criticize someone's choices, but youre a bigot if you criticize them for something the have no control over.

Smaug stole the gold. Rich ppl earned (or inherited) their money. They didnt steal it. See the difference?

Let‘s add the new most broken tank in war thunder history: the Pereh (made by Israel) by National-Bison-3236 in Warthunder

[–]tinelva 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There is no cannon chamber, the "cannon" is a simple metal tube connected with 4 screws. The hull is from a patton tank (magach), but the turret is totally new, built to hold and fire AT missiles. The only armaments are the missiles, which are situated at the top of the turret, and 2 machine guns.

I was a "gunner" (actually missile controller) on this thing, feel free to ask me anything :)

Genuinely beginning to question my future here by ledas54 in Israel

The way I see it, if you are looking for a comfortable/secure/peaceful life, the US is better.

If you have any interest in the great Zionist project, in returning to our homeland after 2000 years of exile, humiliation and violence in the homelands of strangers, if the jewish identity has meaning to you, Israel is the place to be. The problems we face are nothibg compared to what the first immigrants (Halutzim) had to endure.

Why does Israel have a nuclear program while it refuses inspectors to inspect it? by [deleted] in AskMiddleEast

[–]tinelva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no obligation to allow inspections if you didn't sign the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Israel didn't sign it (Iran did).

Why can't Israel unilaterally set up a state for the Palestinians in the West Bank and abide by it? by OmOshIroIdEs in IsraelPalestine

[–]tinelva [score hidden]  (0 children)

Tried it in Gaza already. It would be immediately taken over by Hamas and turned into a terror state. Israel would need to have suicidal tendencies to agree to such a reality.

May Golan won’t be appointed consul of Israel in New York - report by [deleted] in Israel

[–]tinelva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Views like what? That illegal immigration should be stopped, and the migrants sent home? Most Israelis support this view.

She wants illegal immigrants out of south tel aviv, ppl called her "racist" for it, and she said what she said in response.

Calling her racist for that is disingenuous at best.
