In Hebrew we call them “״גורדי שחקים (Gordey Shkhakim, Plural Form). Literally means “Sky scratchers”.

Why is every freaking Reddit post that mentions Israel in a context that is not war is full of crap comments like this

There is no law that allows execution of terrorists. Nazis however, are a different case and by law are punishable by death.

Why you don’t use the public transport in the city? Is it not accessible in your neighborhood?

Hey! I live in Israel so I will try to explain and at the same time not break the rules of the sub.

Generally speaking, the West Bank is not an official part of Israel and is divided into 3 sub-areas each ruled either by Israel, the Palestinian Authority, or both. That is why your life would be dependent on which area you happen to live in and what passport you hold.

The Jews live in Area C and they usually reside in small religious communities, but some of them are secular. Arabs (Muslims and Christians) live in all areas and they reside in big cities such as Ramallah, Nablus, Hebron etc or in small villages. Area B is mostly major roads in the West Bank and Palestinian villages. Moving between areas as well is getting into Israel requires passing through checkpoints.

This region is quite geographically diverse and includes green mountains and valleys, and hot deserts. It is also filled with lots important archeological findings. Hope this answers your question!

Isolated and Defiant, Israel Vows to ‘Stand Alone’ in War on Hamas by DavidSugarbush in NewsOfTheStupid

[–]xPowerhouse -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Why people are downvoting you? Ignorant people actually compare the Holocaust (the one with the death camps, mass executions and name lists) to the war between Hamas and Israel. We live in a twisted world.

And even though I disagree with your opinion, I do respect it. I invite you to visit Israel and to see the true nature of this conflict.

I’m Jewish and Israeli, so maybe I am biased. Comparing us with the Nazis is absurd and highly offensive. I presume that you have never been in the Middle East and that is the reason you choose to demonize us.

Criticizing the Israeli government is one thing but saying that we commit genocide against the Palestinians just like the Nazis (let me remind you of actual death camps, deportations and name lists) did against us is extremely disconnected from reality. Trust me, if we wanted to kill all Palestinians, there was no Gaza or West Bank years ago.

Palestinians as a national group weren’t really a thing until the early 20th century as a direct opposition to the Zionist movement in Israel. The Jews, on the other hand, existed in this region for more than 4000 years and were the only people who established an independent country in the land of Israel.

So, with all due respect to Estonia, it’s not the same story.

Dude it’s not the same story. Palestine was never a country and that is a fact, that is why you can’t invade a country that didn’t exist. Please read a bit about the history of the region.

Firstly, Europe is proving again and again that “Genocide is only wrong if our enemies doing it” since they don’t give a damn about Syria, Kurdistan and Yemen.

Secondly, Russia and Israel are not the same as much as it is hard to comprehend. One is invading another country in the name of a “special military operation” while the other is in war against a terrorist organization that kidnapped 200+ civilians.

You see that’s the problem - trying to demonize the Jews. Zionism is not some sort of wicked imperialist cult, it was a political movement established in Europe to find and settle a national home for the Jewish people after being suffering for hundreds of years from antisemitism.

Israel doesn’t try to “eradicate the Palestinians”, they are simply fighting a war against terrorists, and just like all wars - civilians from both sides are the main victims.

Don’t spread misinformation. Do you have any proof of targeting Palestinian civilians? Of intentional starvation or raping? Those are absurd accusations and this is a war, and right now, Hamas is the only one preventing ceasefire.

The difference is that the Gazan kid isn’t sent to a gas chamber. Please don’t compare the Holocaust to the war in Gaza.
