The zionism that won in Israel is the one that claims Jews must have a fortress state of their own and put a gun to the heads of anti-semites (which everyone who remotely questions zionism is) and be safe that way. The extreme vengeance fueled response to october 7th was in large part caused by the fact they were shown that it's not possible. That you can't have security without justice, no matter how brutal you are in oppressing those you perceive as enemies. It wasn't about eradicating Hamas, it was about reestablishing the notion they can keep israelites safe by stomping on the palestinians. To reestablish the illusion that they are in control.

Sam Seder is a socialist. Most of them are idiots and Jew-haters.


The IDF cannot keep safe the 1,200 citizens that lost their lives, no matter how much the IDF pulverize the Palestinians.

Maybe next time the living Palestinians will think twice before killing and raping Jews.

Words like "justice" and "security" are pretty words but fail in face of violence.

1,200 Israelis murdered on October 7th, and over 200 hostages taken by Hamas. No matter how much you can rationalize Hamas' attack, the decision to use violence as your answer will only breed more violence.

Is the blockade inhumane? Absolutely. Is stealing is moving Israelis into homes stolen from Palestinians deplorable? No question. Is the answer then to murder scores of civilians as punishment for the Israeli government's actions? No.

From the beginning Palestine's answer to unfair treatment was violence, which Israel responded to. As the power imbalance between the two grew Palestine has never stopped using violence, despite being outmatched.

If attacks from Palestine ceased, so would Israeli attacks. The blockade would never have been erected if not the threat of violence.

"Oh, so just let Israel continue being a land-stealing apartheid state???"

Well, violence clearly isn't the answer. Not only violence not the answer, not only does it sand zero chance ever working, it only makes things worse for Palestinians.

Critics of the Israeli government tend to view Israeli reprisals in isolation. But the same goes for critics of Palestine.

I've said this before and I still stand by it: viewing either Palestinians or Israelis as the "bad guys" and taking a side is not absolutely flawed intellectually.

I agree with your analysis here. The only thing I am wary of saying is they are stealing land. Im sure they are, but not every case of this accusation is true. Its like I believe that there are aliens on other planets, but Im not going to believe every claim that one was spotted.

So far many claims of land stealing and grabbing has surfaced.... eg
- they say Jews came in early 1900s and stole land, when the truth is they purchased land.
- in 1948 they say the Jews made a deal with the British to give land to the Jews which was owned by Arabs, when the truth is the land was fairly partitioned by the UN.
- in the case of the Negev Bedouins, the claim is that they were chased out of their farm land when the truth is that they were squatters and were relocated into settlements instead of roaming all over the place.

Also the homes of terrorists are destroyed and in some cases even the village if it is the case that the village celebrates the action of the terrorist. In this current situation there is going to be a big backlash after the war is over. All these Hamas people and even their families are going to die. They cannot hide. Mossad will take them out one by one and destroy their property as well. It is rumoured that most of them are hiding in other countries.

So this land-grabbing accusation has to be seen from both sides.

Bedouins were in the Negev before long before 1948. At least since the 1800s, and according to some sources, 1400s.

You claim Israel evicting terrorists: how do they determine whose a "terrorist"? Why also expel the women children? It seems you're not using objective sources.

Jews purchased land? Didn't know that. Which land *specifically* was purchased? Was it East Jerusalem? Was it the Negev? I don't see Arabs selling land they consider holy nor do I see Jews paying for desert. I looked this up and the only thing I could find is that no new land has been purchased by the Jews in that area since 1948.

The British declaration to give Jews land was never legally binding. It was used as consideration for the Palestine Mandate but that mandate was dropped by the UN. You'd have more of a point if Britain made the decision regarding who gets the land but thy handed the decision over to the UN. The UN. resolution to partition the land also wasn't legally binding because the UN Security council never voted on it (which is needed for a resolution such Resolution 181 to be adopted)..

Israel's borders are still disputed territory, though as time goes by it becomes less so.

it makes me sad you are now spewing right wing talking points.

hamas, a terrorist organization, does terrorism. Israel kills 20000 people, half of them children. With the complicity of the US. Indiscriminately. Just carpet bombing a densely packed area, while the leadership of hamas is hiding in Quatar anyway.

If someone takes some hostages in a mall in the US, do you bomb the entire town?

You have on one side a terrorist organization with pipe bombs. And you have on the other side a terrorist organization with actual bombs.


"From the beginning Palestine's answer to unfair treatment was violence, which Israel responded to. "
Disproportianetly. Savagely. Like if a child kicks you in the balls, and then you proceed to hack him to death with a machete. Actually wait. not even that. You go to his neighborhood and you kill the child's neighbours. Then you blockade the neighborhood. You bomb the neighborhood's clinic. You stop water and electricity to that neighborhood.

While the parents of that child, the ones who told the child to kick you, are in another country and they have several other children. And can recruit more from the neighborhood you just bombed,

And then you turn to the world and say "the child started it".

"If attacks from Palestine ceased, so would Israeli attacks."
Israeli attacks have never ceased. Palestinians have been pushed back constantly since 1948. Their homes have been stolen. They have little to no rights. They are second class citizens. They almost can't even get building permits, so their "illegal" homes can be demolished and have been at any time. Why is it upon then to unilateraly stop any violence when they are being oppressed.

Are you actually deluded enough to think Israel is only responding to Hamas attacks? Or, given the fact that you admit it is an apartheid state, you don't actually consider opressing a people as actual violence?


"Not only violence not the answer, not only does it sand zero chance ever working, it only makes things worse for Palestinians."
Israel, given the fact that they are bombing indiscriminately right now, clearly doesn't adhere to this notion.






I am disappointed in you.

zahlooney bambooozles post can be summarised thusly: left wing talking points.

Israel is not an apartheid state many races and religions co-exist peacefully within it's borders. Apartheid is state discrimination on the basis of race. Palestinian is not a race. Muslim is not a race.

You can reply to this relevant succinct demolition of your left wing talking point, just say you didn't look at whose post this was. Say you thought you were replying to suziman or something.

socialist tend to ride with the CAUSE AT THE MOMENT. It’s not been long socialist we’re siding with women, now that men pretending to be women is main stream they are siding with them at the expense of women.

Socialist see strength in numbers, they side with any cause to appear stronger than they are. hollering racism is another of their traits for the same reason
