Gaza-Israel Ceasefire: Prison Conditions on Gaza Lifted

[Frito Bandito]

Well, pretty sure... now that sounds like a fact! :

Sorry to interrupt, but this seemed kind of interesting as to what the current Israeli government hope to achieve with regards to Israel's operation in Gaza :

The goal of the operation is to send Gaza back to the Middle Ages. Only then will Israel be calm for forty years.

One mind ... many tongues.

On November 15 the USA said, "We believe Israel has a right to defend itself"

Immediately, within 24 hours after that ...

Canada said: "We fundamentally believe that Israel has the right to defend itself."
Germany said: "It is obvious that Israel has a legitimate right to defend itself."
Holland said: "Israel has the full right to defend itself."
Ceska said: "The Czech Republic fully recognizes Israel’s right to self defense."
Australia said: "Australia supports Israel's right to defend itself."

This is absolute proof of why Israel cannot be tolerated in the community of nations.

An amoeba avoids electric fields. The amoeba doesn't know why an electric field is bad, it just instinctively avoids it. At a visceral level humans understand there is something fundamentally incorrect about the existence of the State of Israel.

Hmm, still trying to see what you can call Israel and Israelis without being openly anti-Semitic? The sad thing is that you've been doing this so long it's not even trolling anymore.

Sorry, I didn't realize "electric field" was a slur.

Stop being such a 120 Volt Outlet, Symmetry.

When - in any other conflict in the modern era - has a nation been conjured into existence for the singular purpose of conquest? Nations war with nations all the time. Only in the case of Israel has a nation been manufactured for the sole purpose of waging war. How is this not a violation of the natural order? How can a nation founded on that ethos ever be redeemed?

Opposing racism, wars of aggression and apartheid is not anti-Semitism. It is wrong no matter who is doing it. In this case it is a group of religious fanatics. Saxi's tone is appropriate given the thousands upon thousands of instances in which Israel has shown total disregard for international law, property rights, contractual law, and human rights, with only the US being in defense.

I thought you would know better than to resort to this.

A side note: Chomsky has noted that in token resolutions calling on nations to follow international laws in the General Assembly, the US and Israel are always voting alone against (along with South Africa under apartheid).

I've argued with him in other threads, so fair enough- this is more of of a long running argument with Saxitoxin about how he chooses to portray Israel and Israelis. It was perhaps a bit too oblique for this thread. Let us say that the man has a history.

oh gotcha, this is another one of your conspiracy theories

Having a harsh view of Israeli citizens is not anti-Semitism. It can be argued that the Israeli citizens, of which 99.9% are sitting on stolen land and of which 116 for every 120 vote for militant Zionist parties (militant to varying degrees, this according to the current Knesset configuration), are just as much a part of the offensive as the IDF. Justice calls for the following:

1. The return of illegally seized property to Palestinian owners or their estate. Theft is theft, and the legal conventions for theft include the return of stolen property.
2. The entire region put under Palestinian administration.
3. The land legally purchased by Jews pre-1948 to stay in the hands of the owners.

just curious, but are you sure that if there was no racism, wars of aggression, or apartheid, there would just be a whole different list of evils to be accused of, and the narrative of the new evils will be even more evil than the previous evils?

Not to mention, there are always 2 different views on who the terrorist is, and who the freedom fighter is, and there always will be, as long as there are targets for terrorists with victims and someone for the freedom fighters to fight. Plus. it could all just be Rothschild and Soros playing both sides off against each other. I mean, who else would want the one world government that would be the only institution that could even possibly enforce international laws....

Hmm, as I said, my issue with Saxitoxin's view of Israel and Israeli's goes back a fair way, and goes into other threads. As Saxi's response above suggests, he's uncomfortable with confronting the stuff he's posted.

I'm pretty sympathetic to your points, although I think I take more of a middle ground. I'd advise a degree of caution before you align yourself too closely with Saxitoxin though. Describing Israel as a cockroach to be stamped out sets off my anti-Semitic radar.

I stand by everything I posted. So far you've only been able to make cryptic allusions to some supposed past transgressions of mine. The one example you've managed to conjure is fictitious.

What I did say was: If the "State of Israel" doesn't want to be crushed like a cockroach, it should stop acting like a pest. This was said, specifically, in a discussion about whether Israel should feel threatened by Iran's alleged acquisition of self-defense technology. Meaning, if Israel stopped doing pest-like things such as engaging in military operations whose goal is "to send Gaza back to the Middle Ages" it wouldn't be under threat. The word "cockroach" is frequently used to illustrate nuclear war. But, by all means, keep looking for some hidden meaning that will reinforce your nutter conspiracy theories.

Maybe your name happened to be mentioned in a newsletter by what someone who is not you wrote in some publication 30 years ago? Ya know, if that's the case, it doesn't matter what you do, your legacy is defined now.

Come to think of it, now Symmetry is screwed too for the next 30 years, because he is writing back and forth with you about something that very well may be viewed as racist in 2042....

[Symmetry]

And as I've said, you remain just on the border of anti-Semitism. "Oops, sorry if that came across as anti-Semitic, you're too sensitive", each and every time.

Like hell you picked "cockroach" and "pest" without regard to their connotations.
