Looks very sleek

Oh please check your sources,

Long-serving Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu in 2015 rejected a Palestinian state.[11] He again rejected a Palestinian state in June 2023.[12][13]

And while at it ELI5 how is the approval of more and more Jewish settlements in the West Bank and building more and more walls and checkpoints is advancing this two state solution?

Is Israel recognising Palestine as a country?

Are the UN and the ICJ saying so in this case?

I wish all those Israeli politicians would live one week with all their families in either the West Bank or Gaza and to experience the other side of the coin. I want them to experience first hand the living hell they created.

The way Gaza and the West bank are left alone, behind big walls, with plenty of checkpoints, restricting the free movement of people and stock with severe economic sanctions and so on. Oh what a paradise on Earth.

Why don't they start with OpenAI and other LLM vendors, because they are the biggest copyright infringement abusers of all time?

But there is a very interesting titbit in Wikipedia. He wanted to go to Jordan to study, but his visa application was declined by the Israeli authorities and only then he turned into terrorism.

The most successful way to fight terrorism is to provide those people some future, some prosperity, some hope. People turn to terrorism when they are struggling, when they don't see any light at the end of the tunnel.

So you are trying to tell me that if you were on the other side of the fence you would be happy if some colonial Western countries gave your land on a silver platter to an ethnic group, consisting of new emigrants who were not even living there before 1900.

I have all the compassion for the Jews and what they experienced in WWII. But this doesn't also give them a carte blanche to expel people from their own homes and declare Israel as an ethno state.

The reality is that Israel has killed and destroyed a lot more civilians and their infrastructure compared to any of their proclaimed terrorist neighbours. And then it is just logical to ask who is actually worse, the so-called terrorist organisation, or the state of Israel of their indiscriminate killings. And believe me, through the years Israel committed well documented plenty of human rights violations, war crimes, etc.

You know if you disregard international law so blatantly, you are creating a dangerous precedent and other countries would do the same. The whole idea of those international laws is to prevent large scale conflicts and to minimise the civilian casualties. But nowadays no one bats an eye if Israel breaks another one.

And this double standard, is infuriating. Because if you are a war criminal, you should be put into jail, no matter your country of origin, skin colour, religion, etc.

And the same applies to Hamas and Putin, of course.

Instead we have Israel trying to sabotage the international criminal court, tapping phones, blackmailing prosecutors and on top of everything else the US is considering sanctioning the prosecutors just because they dared to issue an arrest warrant for Bibi and Gallant. That's how rotten our world is.

The Jewish Agency, the recognized representative of the Jewish community, accepted the plan, which assigned 55–56% of Mandatory Palestine to the Jews. At the time, the Jews were about a third of the population and owned around 6–7% of the land.

And then you wonder why Arabs weren't happy. Would you be happy if someone comes to Germany and tells you from now on, 55% of Germany belongs to Turkiye?

But arguing with you and trying to show you the other point of view is like fighting with windmills.

On a land that didn't belong to them. And in the process killed 15000 Palestinians and expelled 750.000 to create their dream ethno state. Prior to 1900 very few Jews were living there and the local population was mostly Arabs.

Why Jews didn't forgive Nazis in 1946?!?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli%E2%80%93Lebanese_conflict this article clearly contradicts your statement. And it doesn't help that Israel is also illegally occupying part of Lebanon either.

https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/customary-ihl/v1/rule80 you know International laws exist for a reason, and Israel clearly violated many international laws, which by the way were created to prevent such events like WWII.

You know Israel can find a peaceful solution if it only permits the establishment of an independent state of Palestine. But instead they prefer to continue their warmongering politics.

Because the terrorist label is handed by the West.

The worst outcome is that this whole war heavily undermines international laws and normalises human rights violations.

You should consider switching to some immutable distro like Silver Blue, uBlue, etc. for the peace of mind and the easiness to revert back to some stable system. I am currently using one in conjunction with Nix and it is truly a blessing.

And prevent such global wars like WWII. Funnily enough, the state of Israel was funded exactly by an UN resolution, and now Israel is trying to discredit the same institution that's responsible for the existence of their state.

Winston Churchill once said, “Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.”
