Israel Thread

[Husar]

But as for Arabs and Jews, I condemn both terrorists, while you sound like you feel for Arabs only.

Actually you sounded like you cared for the Israelis only, maybe that is the problem here.

A nation living in constant fear sometimes sees dangers where there isn't. But this is the price they have to willingly pay for surviving. Sometimes it hurts the innocent on both sides (I remember about a couple of months ago there was a ruckus about knife-armed terrorists and once on a false suspicion a crowd lynched a jew). But it is collateral damage which makes people (including me) sorry, but seldom goes further than that; much like MH 17 - in spite of all the evidence pointing Russiawards Europeans seem ready to forget about it and not press any charges. Even the Netherlands whose citizens were most numerous on board the plane indirectly supported Russia having voted at the referendum the way Russia cheered at.

And where in this is the understanding you have for the Arab reaction? Do Palestinians not live in constant fear?

It was an attempt at explanation, not a statement of support. Just like you offer plausible (as you believe) reasons why Russia annexed Crimea - does it mean you support it? Although I don't know - perhaps you really do. Not me in case of Israel.

I don't support it in either case, I brought it up because you seemed to be finding excuses for the Israeli occupations.

I thought we have been through with it. But if you want, let's do it again - [...]

Nono, we are, thank you very much.
