Which is why context matters. You are talking about Israel/Palestine, in the Israel thread. The chosen people therefore refers to Jews. The thread, and the context of your discussion are the qualifiers and any attempt to say otherwise is you pretzeling yourself for the 1,329,567th time on this thread.
You say Israel is a pariah.
What, now you think occupiers should pay for rebuilding land when they disagree?
As has been mentioned numerous times, the U.S. is protecting their international interests.
Yes, your wiki link confirmed the video I posted with someone calling themselves the 'chosen people'.
Sure, just as Germany was winning in 1945, buddy.
Further proof that, as I keep telling Geno, Oct.7 was stupid.
Your view is nothing extraordinary or new. This is common knowledge that the US and Israel are allies and share a special relationship, because of which Israeli interests are American interests. Where you are wrong is that this can be replaced by another. It cannot. The middle east Arab lobby can never outspend the Israeli lobby because the Israeli lobby is richer, more global and already owns US politicians. So even if the Arabs tried, they couldn't possibly buy what has already been bought and paid for.
Thanks for admitting that Israel is committing a genocide.
Actually, Butler gives examples to back up his declarations.
The context is that Geno inferred that Jews are the ONLY people calling themselves "the chosen people" in the post where shamelessly called Palestinians "lesser humans".
Please stay on topic.
Butler provided his own imaginary scenarios that have no basis in history of this particular conflict, and are therefore off topic, and as such require no further discussion, as that would derail the thread. My predictions about what may transpire in Gaza are more in line with reality and history, something you'd be wise to learn from which could possibly help you see the reality of the genocide Israel is committing in Gaza. And no, I am not supposed to do anything.
No he did not infer that. His comment was in the context of this thread and in the context of Israel and Palestine. You imagined that and ended up pretzeling yourself.
How many countries are joining forces to invade Israel the way the allies joined forces to invade Germany?
Further proof that the occupation was stupid, the blockade was stupid, apartheid was stupid, genocide was stupid and zionism stupid and evil.
You're cheering on attacking Jews now, hammy.
Klassic Kaut. "I don't have facts. I don't have a rebuttal. Therefore let's discard valid points and claim they are irrelevant." You are soo predictable.
The talk was about how the powers that be would deal with the Gaza situation. Butler gave his opinions with validation and you did not address it at all.
You have been successful.
The Gazans are paying for the stupidity of Hamas' attack of Oct.7.
Given that I provided rebuttal that the points he raised are unrelated to the discussion on hand this is a lame false accusation, because you are butthurt as usual, that I pointed out your pretzel positions.
Yes, and oil and arms sales etc are unrelated to the issue of Palestinian freedoms, Zionism and the genocide of the Palestinian people, which I stated already. It is not because of oil that a bunch of Zionists from Europe settled in Palestine and are committing genocide right now.
Calling Israel's bombardment of Gaza with no real strategy or goal, genius, is unintelligent.
