Where the heck y'all live where the power goes out so often?
I'm in the middle of the frozen tundra in Canada, we're powered entirely by renewable energy, we've got snow storms, blizzards, floods and some serious thunder storms and I can't even recall the last time we lost power for any noticeable amount of time. If anything having to reset the clock on the microwave is the only reason I'd know it went out. There's talk of moving to a smart grid system because ours is dated, so wtf are you people working with?
I do love me a good flashlight though, I've got a couple around the house just in case and one in my bag at all times.
DDG just kinda sucks for basic information. When I took up a business, google gives me the location, phone number and some relevant information about the business. DDG gives me their website.
The goal of Israel was a Jewish homeland but it's never been only for Jews. Arabs have always lived there and always will. The Arab population of Israel has grown faster than the Jewish one too.
Look up Jewish exodus of the Arab world, the wiki is pretty informative. The war of independence would be key words to lead to information about the attacks when they were first granted nationhood.
Get multiple sources and double check those sources. lots of newly invented stories are flying around these days.
Israel isn't a perfect democracy but it's far and away the best option for the citizens in the region and they're not genocidal monsters although I'm sure some of them are horrid people, it seems you can't form a government without some of those making a part of it.
So what's the number? I've never seen a genocide defined by a number but teach me something today. From a demographic perspective, this isn't 1% of Palestinians. Syria has well over a half million dead in their conflict, not seeing people lining up calling that a genocide. There were around a million dead as a result of the Iraq war, was that a genocide?
Genocide is about intent as much as numbers, there are millions of Arabs living in Israel with rights and privileges that clearly show the intent is not genocidal.
Because they chose war rather than the deal the ruling power offered is the short answer.
Many of those people also left willingly at the direction of the Arab Nations surrounding Israel with the understanding they'd get to return after Israel lost the war. That obviously didn't happen because Israel won the wars.
Many were also just kicked out because this new nation had just been attacked and they wanted control over the disputed lands that they had won. It's not a clean situation but nation building rarely is.
Nearly one million Jews were also kicked out of their homes in the surrounding Arab Nations.
Israel isn't popular because the region wants a Pan Arabian state and having a Jewish one right in the middle doesn't allow them the caliphate they're going for.
Your book on indigeneity, does it include continued existence in the region? Indigenous languages and their revival? Israel hits every note in your book, Palestine doesn't.
Now you're claiming I want people dead, going personal is the weak pivot of the loser but no I don't want anyone dead who's not a terrorist. The colonial apartheid bullshit is a non starter, there's millions of Arabs living just fine in Israel. They vote, serve in government and the military. You know where there's laws against religion? In Gaza, which is an apartheid state. This problem starts to turn when the Palestinian refugee industrial complex is unraveled. There are billions of dollars being funneled into creating propaganda that isn't helping the people who live there. A moderate pan Arab contingent of countries is going to have to guide the reeducation. I get that people like you think Israel needs to cease to exist which is literally calling for the death of ten million Jews who live there but you should probably start to accept reality and understand that they're not going anywhere, and this isn't stopping until Hamas is gone and the hostages are home.
So you're saying that you think the curriculum and education, that involves coloring books showing the shooting of Jews and hands on training with weapons for elementary school children isn't a problem?
On a technical note, Jews didn't colonize Judea. They've been there since before the Arabs. They decolonized the region, Palestine and Gaza is literally a colony in practice.
There are Holocaust survivors who believe it's a genocide, they're absolutely worth listening to. There are survivors who have devoted their lives to the issue who are saying it's not, they're absolutely worth listening to. That you're only willing to listen to those who agree with you is part of the problem. The guy standing for Israel, has stood before this same court in the past but all of a sudden he's not a valid expert? Get a grip.
As I pointed out, the efforts aren't perfect they're ongoing. Germany is still clearly working on it, they're also struggling with right wing immigration issues and a host of other issues. None of that takes away from the turnaround they've done and continue to do.
Yes. People aren't born to hate they're taught to hate. If you're going to act like kids in Gaza aren't taught to hate in school, and in training camps then you're either defending terrorists or you're just ignorant. Education that doesn't include systemic Antisemitic curriculum has proven effective in neighboring countries at reducing radicalization. The people of Gaza deserve that same chance.
Yes, quite literally. They understand what's at stake for society as well or better than anyone on the planet right now.
They're also a good example of how deradicalization efforts can be effective, not perfect but effective as reestablishing a modern liberal democracy. Gaza will need something other than what they currently have for an education system if they are to develop into anything other than a terrorist enclave.
Germany is the expert on this. When they point out that the allegations are bullshit, that's an opinion worth listening to. When Iran, South Africa and the rest of the proxys make those claims, maybe not worth the same value even if it aligns with your tik tok inspired understanding of the situation.
