What do you think of frank's assessment of what's going on? I know you are both, pretty much, on the same side but he claims to call out both, but he never ever will say a particular thing that Hamas did that was wrong.

He is determined to never admit that the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas was an act of terrorism.

He says both sides should be taken to the Hague. He can cite a dozen specific acts as reasons why Israel should be tried but refuses to cite any reasons why Hamas should go.

Does he actually call out both sides with his broad and sweeping, yet ambiguous statements of accusing both sides, or is he being disingenuous because he refuses to back up those those statements of why he thinks Hamas should be tried the same way he backs up why Israel should be tried?
Stop with the gaslighting.
Its really disgusting and dishonest.

Both sides have targeted civilians, which you label as 'terrorism', with Israel having killed over 4,000 children.
You support that form of terrorism then say Hamas is bad because they committed way less terrorism.
Leaders from both should be investigated and charged by the ICC as war criminals.

You have offered no solutions, you can't define the borders of Israel, won't accept Palestinians are humans who deserve basic rights, won't even denounce killing babies. Instead you're here gaslighting to defend genocide.

I don't have to. Are you also saying they realistically will not do the right things like perhaps giving land back to the Palestinians or some such?
You don’t have to but have for 300 pages. So either you don’t seem to understand war, or don’t understand nothing else has worked nor that people eminently more qualified have tried to think of things be they fences, sanctions, spec ops, intelligence, Mosad, treaties.

“what don’t you understand?”

TERB's antisemites are the same people who supported Charlottesville, who hate Muslims and love their dear leader, the orange clown extraordinaire, who said "There are good people on both sides".



Israel has never stood by its own promises in the past. Not once. They kept expanding and taking land. So, no, the former treaties failed not just because of the Palestinians, but also because of the Israelis.
name a peace agreement they broke.
Anything else you name can be regurgitated tit for tat with random terrorist attacks.

He didn't say that.

Intentional misrepresentation. AKA lying.
Nonsense.
That is what he said.

Clearly Hamas knew in advance that hell was coming down upon them when they launched the terrorist attack of Oct. 7.

It didn't seem to bother or deter them (or YOU) then, why does it bother you now. You've endorsed Oct. 7 knowing what the repercussions, ergo, you support the 10,000 deats. And furthermore you support the deaths of, who knows how many, more by not endorsing a Hamas surrender and release of hostages, which would result in the immediate cessation of more innocent Gazans.

Why do you favour death and destruction? Why do you love when so much unnecessary blood is spilled? Why are you a warmonger?

Admit that you know what I suggest would save so many more Gazan lives.
You are a coward. You are afraid to voice your opinions on the streets of Toronto to Palestine protesters.

I've been arguing here for years that to end the cycle of violence you need to end the occupation and apartheid.
All of the violence is stupid and preventable.

Palestinians have the right to self defence against an illegal occupation, they are within their rights to attack Israel. That doesn't mean I support it, I support BDS instead. If you don't want them to attack end the stupid 75 year old occupation.

Ceasefire
End apartheid
End the occupation

So now you are claiming that is no anti-Semitism in the world? Only one type of person would make such a disgraceful claim.
Gaslighting, shack.
I said you're using an antisemitic trope by trying to argue that zionism represents the entire Jewish people.

Yup, 80% of dems support a ceasefire.
The longer this lasts the more they'll be pissed at Biden.

Now Herzog wants US Universities to stop protests for Palestine. A foreign government demanding that the US stop students from protesting against genocide. That should really play well with dems.

Let’s see how well it will play with Dems if trump gets elected

Gaslighting.
So incredibly dishonest coming from someone who doesn't even have the humanity to say its wrong to kill babies.
Gaslighting? You're the person calling everyone pro-genocide for calling out Hamas as terrorists, if they are not, then what are they?

How effective is the Covert ops going to be in Gaza? that's pretty much the beginning of this topic.
No, the beginning of this topic was you saying Covert Ops doesn't operate in hostile territory.

So tell us: why isn't Covert Ops going to be effective in Gaza? Clearly you think you understand the topic better than we do so explain it to us.

I call people out for supporting genocide because Israel is targeting civilians, civilian infrastructure, destroying all water and food supplies and banning water, food and power to 2.3 million people, including 1.2 million children that have nothing to do with Hamas.

Its gaslighting to claim I said its for calling out Hamas.

Yes. I think the people who are discriminated the most today, are black people. Not Jews.
So now hatred is a quantitative thing? Who is hated more is supposed to be relevant?

Systemic racism is a bigger issue, than a bunch of neo-Nazis marching the streets yelling "Jews will not replace us". Yes, it is anti-semitic. Yes, it is racist. But no, it is not as much of a serious problem as systemic racism. Atleast in the west. That is the primary form of racism you find in the west today. Not the violent kind during Nazi times.
What an utterly rubbish comment.

You post that and hypocritically talk about Israeli racism against Palestinians? It's a smaller issue.

Accusing people of pro-Palestine support of anti-semitism, is just an old tactic, that is no longer effective. It aims to achieve 2 primary objectives:
You're beginning to sound like frank by gaslighting. I never said that. You are implying that I said ALL people who are pro-Palestinian to be anti-Semitic. I said there has been anti-Semitism throughout history and there are still people who hate Jews for no other reason than they are Jewish. It would be very convenient for those people to pretend to be pro-Palestinian so that they can display their hate without having to show that they're just Jew haters at heart.

Lack of facts from my side? Did you miss Klatuu and Frank's posts, and my own posts that highlight a) The war crimes currently being committed
I've addressed those dozens of times.


b) The racism and apartheid of the Israeli govt. c) The racism that is inherent in Israeli society and culture.
Yes. I think the people who are discriminated the most today, are black people. Not Jews.
So, as you say in this very post, discrimination against Palestinians is not the biggest issue. And if you want to talk about systemic racism against Palestinians, lets talk about the systemic racism against Jews in every muslim nation such that Jews were driven out of all of those countries. Where is you moral outrage there. And if it's systemic racism/apartheid why are there Arab/Palestinian members of the Israeli Knesset?

And did you source check Conil's posts? The majority are from hate sites, far right wing sites etc., Some examples of his sources:
Hypocrisy when you never call out Klutz' and franks ultra extreme pro-Palestinian sources. BLATANT HYPOCRISY BY YOU.

So far you have edited posts, trying to twist words.
Try saying that to frank every time he twists words, which is dozens of times a day.

May be covert ops to take out Hamas leaders
I've inquired a couple of times what these covert ops would look like, how long would they take, how would they be successful in eradicating all of Hamas and their weapons/infrastructure which is their stated goal.

I'd like to have a better understanding. Can you please enlighten? It almost seems like this is intentional. It's sort of like you are just throwing out phrases without having any idea what you are talking about.
