I wouldn’t be surprised if some Israelis were killed by friendly fire. It was probably a very chaotic situation. It still doesn’t erase the actions of Hamas that day. I appreciate your perspective as I try to better understand this conflict.

The extremists will eventually fade away under those conditions. Hi Justice, Roughly what percentage of Palestinians would you guess feel the same way currently as you do, regarding a two-state solution with the 1967/Green Line borders? Also, what’s the current sentiment for prospects of a one-state solution? From a complete outsider’s perspective, the one-state solution just seems like the more practical one at this point. I’d also be bothered with having Israeli land situated between a non-contiguous Palestinian country of Gaza plus the West Bank (don’t even get me started with Alaska and Canada…ugh…). 23 hours ago, Coffeesforclosers said: Kay, I appreciate the fact that your posts are tweet free, reflect original thinking, and use polysyllabic words. This subforum does not. Look forward to being trolled for not fitting into terminally online meme complexes. Do, however, enjoy observing what a successful "fill the space with *****" influence operation looks like. Thank you for the kind words, Coffeesforclosers! A few thread pages back, I presented a 13-point argument outlining why Israel is guilty of collective punishment, ethnic cleansing, and genocide. The responses were the usual ad hominems, whataboutisms, and strawmen. Most right-wingers didn’t even bother to respond because they know the argument, 5 full months beyond October 7, is unfortunately unassailable. As for the trolling warnings…believe me, it won’t take much more for this troll-ee to become the troll-er. I’ve been in a foul sports mood all week because I dearly miss Tre White, Poyer, and Morse…and the Sabres are being the Sabres again…(sigh). So the next wrinkly reactionary (wizened Westside, decrepit Doc, tired Tommy Callahan, etc.) to give me a single negative emoticon response is likely in serious trouble.

I’ve been to gatherings that had over 1200 people. I have spoken to many of them regarding this issue. The vast majority want a 2 state solution because they realize Israel isn’t going anywhere any time soon. I’d say about 90% of the people I’ve spoken to all agree on that. We all understand a one state solution with equal rights will never happen. Israel can not accept that. As for Gaza that place will not be Palestinian land after this massacre is over so they won’t have to worry about a non-contiguous Palestinian state. 2 1
B-Man Posted March 8 Posted March 8 Beyond parody. Hamas Leader Says No One Expected Israel's Response to October 7 to Be So Barbaric We don't know who the interviewer is, but we thank him profusely for asking the question we've been asking since October 7 … what exactly did Hamas expect afterward? They had a plan to invade Israel, slaughter 1,200 innocent civilians, and take literal babies hostage. What was the next step of the plan? What was on the schedule for October 8? They'd claimed they'd been planning the attack for two years … they must have expected consequences. Senior Hamas official Mousa Abu Marzouk obviously knew Israel would retaliate, but nobody in the whole world expected them to be so barbaric. The people who cut off heads, burned people alive and raped corpses couldn't imagine the Israelis being so barbaric. https://twitchy.com/brettt/2024/03/07/hamas-leader-says-no-one-expected-israels-response-to-october-7-to-be-so-barbaric-n2393734 1

As for Gaza that place will not be Palestinian land after this massacre is over so they won’t have to worry about a non-contiguous Palestinian state. The "two state solution" begs the question. Who is going to lead the Palestinian component? Name some organization that has any critical political mass that doesn't advocate the elimination of Israel. Israel has had two elections in the past decades that the victor's major policy component was a two state solution. They didn't get anywhere, or at least to the finish line. One could say that that was becasue of Israel's negotiating intransigence, but my view is because of an absolute void in leadership on the other side. Major agreements bring on risks, and the other side was simply not willing to do that, or hadn't the strength to. It's similar to what's going on now. Hamas and other groups are telling their minions that elimination of Israel is a real possibility. It isn't. I very much favor a two state option, but not one where the other side insists of complete destruction of the state of the other, and the elimination of all its people. Further, if that were to occur, in my speculation, there would be yet another internal Islamic Sunni vs Shiite war.

You can say the same thing about this ultra right wing government running Israel today. Why don’t you? What’s stopping you? They recently voted against the creation of a Palestinian state. As for who will be the one to lead Palestine? I have no clue. I seriously do not know. Now I’m not saying nobody is capable. I just don’t know which puppet the west will prefer. 1 hour ago, B-Man said: Of course their first names are unusual. Right ? . May they all return safely to their families 1

Israel has had two elections that put in place people whose primary platform was the establishment of a separate Palestinian state. Went nowhere because there is no reasonable commitment from the other side. Of course you have no clue about who would reasonably lead them in peaceful coexistence, because there is no one. How do you advocate for this without any solution? It's nonsense. Combine that with the sub-human acts in October and you get what you get. It is preposterous to demand military perfection in this environment. That is the issue. There is nobody to negotiate with, and Hamas seeks to eliminate Israel.

Andy1 Posted March 9 Posted March 9 Justice - Prior to the war, under Hamas rule, was there freedom of speech to allow public discussion of the topic of Israel’s right to exist? This is against Hamas declared policy so that’s why I’m asking. Would there be severe consequences if one advocated for that position? It would seem that this is a necessary first step, before a leader for peace can emerge.

As for the West Bank I’ve heard many people acknowledge Israel. I’ve even heard some of them say they’d be ok with a one state solution as long as they get equal rights. Interestingly enough nobody is allowed to speak about Hamas in the WB. Besides, Hamas’ updated charter doesn’t call for the end of Israel anyways. Disgusting. Every accusation is a confession with Zios. 1
Tommy Callahan Posted March 9 Posted March 9 This will definitely help their cause . Help get people to see the problem.
