about the last part, the eu banned rt and sputnik news.
does that mean eu countries aren't democracies?

https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/eu-bans-rt-sputnik-banned-over-ukraine-disinformation-2022-03-02/
russian state-backed media outlets.

do you consider eu countries democratic?
they banned rt and sputnik.

didn't the eu ban rt and sputnik? even from social media, which doesn't seem to be the case here.

"You can admire Israel’s natural beauty (which is just deserts really?) and still support a two state solution though"

is the first comment i replied to.
i quoted this part "(which is just deserts really?)"

maybe you meant something else, but this is what you wrote.
calling me a liar after pointing out and even quoting exactly what you wrote is so ridiculous, that i have a hard time believing you aren't purposedly misunderstanding.

i wrote most of the south, not most of israel..
and you wrote "just deserts"..
the center and north don't have deserts.
there are meadows and forests. in some places there's snow in the winter.
so again, not "just deserts really". which is what you wrote.

you wrote "You can admire Israel’s natural beauty (which is just deserts really?)".
if you've been there, you're supposed to know that while the south of israel is mostly deserts, you won't find any deserts in the rest of it.

the conspiracy theory is about shabak, not the mossad and it was spread by radical israeli right-wingers as a conpiracy by, what they consider, a leftist shabak that was trying to delegitimize the right and increase the support for the left.
yigal amir supported kahanists like ben gvir and his ilk, not the likud.

after rabin, there was ehud barak who was voted in, who also tried to reach a 2 state solution with arafat in 2000.

other than the 834 executions last year of protesters / dissidents and general killings of protesters, here's 1 known killing of an iranian journalist.
there's also the other attempts to kill iranian journalists abroad, but fortunately they're incompetent.

how do you explain rabin and the oslo accords then?
and all the israelis who voted for parties that support the 2 state solution?

where'd you get that from? another "truthout" article?
only the south of israel is mainly desert.

al-nusra in syria is funded by qatar, which syrians are suing for that.

the mek was allegedly supported also by israel, along with the saudis and the usa.
which had to start after their funding and cooperation with saddam hussein. so after 2003. much after iran's support for hamas since the 1990's and the founding of hizballah in the 1980's.

and since then they've barely done anything other than the 2 assassinations related to iran's nuclear program. not even close to hamas, houthis' or hizballah's actions. and they barely have any weapons or funding compared, let alone thousands of rockets and drones.

"To a lesser extent, China and Iran also peddle disinfo in hopes of influencing voters."

"As an example, social media posts by sock puppet agents of the Chinese Communist Party promoted former President Donald Trump and criticized Biden."

Iran launches dozens of drones, cruise missiles at Israel

also statements from iran about missiles being fired.

iran is funding and arming hamas, hizballah and the houthis, all of which were attacking israel.
in addition to their attacks on usa bases.

they also sent cruise missiles

some jews managed to stay and survive in israel for thousands of years.
in addition to jews who came back to israel throughout the years like in the 1600's, 1800's and later on also in the 1900's before israel's rebirth.

around 27% of israel's citizens are not jewish. they have the same rights jews have, so yes they can buy land wherever a jew can.
there are 4 arab parties in the knesset.
one of them was part of the 2022 government.

most of the aid is rerouted to militants and the leftovers are mostly sold to civilians at exorbitant prices, while the hostages get crumbs.
not giving aid and attacking militant hotspots quicker could've ended the situation sooner and would've enabled direct giving of aid to civilians. in addition to securing the hostages sooner.

that's the way of thinking from what i've read.

you're welcome to read hrw's article about it on their site.
