      Do you know what preceded this? I keep hearing everyone in this comment section demanding to know why they didn't speak out about Jewish violence before now, but when should that have happened?
      When should they have spoke out against "Jewish acts of violence? "
      Should they have spoken out. between 1920 and 1938 when 100% of the violence was coming from the Arabs?
      Should they have spoken out when the Arabs staged a violent revolt from 1936-1939, committing attack after attack until the British agreed to appease them by shutting off all Jewish immigration in to what was slated to become their homeland.
      Should they have spoken out when an entire boat full of Jewish war refugees were left to drown rather than breaking that agreement and allow them to reach the holy land?
      Should they have spoken out when the Palestinian mufti violentlu r*aped and otherwise brutalized Jews in Baghdad, driving 150,000 of them from their homes in what was referred to as the 1941 Farhud-a campaign that was the first of what was to be a million Jews who were dispossessed of their homes in the Middle East
      Should they have spoken out when the laid siege to Jerusalem and tried to starve the Jews out of leaving their homes?
      Should they have spoken out when the Arabs declared war in 1948?
      Should they have spoken out when the Arabs repeatedly attacked civilians along the border and kept trying to destroy every attempt the Israelis made at building water infrastructure
      Should they have spoken out when the Arabs moved their armies in to position and sent the un peacekeepers out of the region, effectively starting the war in 1967.
      Should they have spoken out when the Arabs acquired missiles from the Soviets and violated their ceasefire agreement during the war of attrition in 1970?
      Should they have spoken out when the Arabs once again declared war in 1973?
      Should they have spoken out when the Israelis turned over all of Gaza in the hopes of moving the peace process forward, facilitated the arrival of billions in infrastructure materials needed to improve their water pipe lines and even left a booming floral industry, told them jumpstart the economy only for the military to instead use those pipe and the fertilizer for the construction of missiles
      It should they have spoken out on the Arabs began the first intifada, and started killing thousands of Jews, in their marketplace, in their restaurants, and there public transportation?
      Should they have spoken out when Yasser Arafat walked away from what many believe was the best chance the two groups ever had at peace and a second intifada was begun?
      You would be correct and pointing out that this conflict didn't begin on October 7 but I'd like to know when in that history you believe we all should've been speaking out against all of the Israeli violence because I don't see when in that history you had in mind!

      And for all your hand ringing, what about all of the Arab violence. The anti-israeli crowd keep saying that these people should have been speaking out about is really violence long before now, but when would you think that they should have been doing this ?

      Should they have spoken out when Yasser Arafat walked away from what many believe was the best chance the two groups ever had at peace and a second intifada was begun?
      You would be correct and pointing out that this conflict didn't begin on October 7 but I'd like to know when in that history you believe we all should've been speaking out against all of the Israeli violence because I don't see when in that history you had in mind!

You think that is the same? And since you are the one drawing the comparison please show me all the acts of violence the Jews commuter against the Germans that precipitated the Holocaust, because I absolutely can show you a lengthy list of all the violence the Arabs committed against the Jews.

      Not a settler state. The Jews are indigenous to judea. Experts have specific criteria for determining indigeneity when was changed to add that they have to be living off their land, a criteria that just so happened to be added right after the jews regained their ancestral lands. No indigenous rights group accepts that they would lose their indigenous status should they ever reclaim a portion of theory land and based on all the remaining standards the Jews are the indigenous people of judea.

No TV. But those movies inserted and fed ideas I am now seeing. AI began long before the tech mechanism.

      You are so right. They should have spoken out about jewish violence in the region before now.
      I wonder when you think they should have started?
      When should they have spoke out against "Jewish acts of violence? "
      Should they have spoken out. between 1920 and 1938 when 100% of the violence was coming from the Arabs?
      Should they have spoken out when the Arabs staged a violent revolt from 1936-1939, committing attack after attack until the British agreed to appease them by shutting off all Jewish immigration in to what was slated to become their homeland.
      Should they have spoken out when an entire boat full of Jewish war refugees were left to drown rather than breaking that agreement and allow them to reach the holy land?
      Should they have spoken out when the Palestinian mufti violentlu r*aped and otherwise brutalized Jews in Baghdad, driving 150,000 of them from their homes in what was referred to as the 1941 Farhud-a campaign that was the first of what was to be a million Jews who were dispossessed of their homes in the Middle East
      Should they have spoken out when the laid siege to Jerusalem and tried to starve the Jews out of leaving their homes?
      Should they have spoken out when the Arabs declared war in 1948?
      Should they have spoken out when the Arabs repeatedly attacked civilians along the border and kept trying to destroy every attempt the Israelis made at building water infrastructure
      Should they have spoken out when the Arabs moved their armies in to position and sent the un peacekeepers out of the region, effectively starting the war in 1967.
      Should they have spoken out when the Arabs acquired missiles from the Soviets and violated their ceasefire agreement during the war of attrition in 1970?
      Should they have spoken out when the Arabs once again declared war in 1973?
      Should they have spoken out when the Israelis turned over all of Gaza in the hopes of moving the peace process forward, facilitated the arrival of billions in infrastructure materials needed to improve their water pipe lines and even left a booming floral industry, told them jumpstart the economy only for the military to instead use those pipe and the fertilizer for the construction of missiles
      It should they have spoken out on the Arabs began the first intifada, and started killing thousands of Jews, in their marketplace, in their restaurants, and there public transportation?
      Should they have spoken out when Yasser Arafat walked away from what many believe was the best chance the two groups ever had at peace and a second intifada was begun?

      EXACTLY!!! I’d love to praise these two but I feel like they’re STILL defending the IDF far too much!!! The guy wouldn’t admit that Hamas is no different than IDF!!! The difference is IsraeHELLi’s are an occupying force and has NO right to self defense!! Hamas is fighting to free their people from IsraeHELLI ZioNAZI occupation & the concentration camp IsraeHELL has locked them in for over 17yrs!! I wonder if he would have called J*ws terrorists if they’d freed themselves from concentration camps & killed Nazis???

      "The same thing happened in the Americas, is how so many Europeans have taken over and why and how they ended up in America since the 1600's?? Yet "The POTUS saying one thing and stile begging for billions of more money to give to this monster to continue to kill off the Palestinis and take over their occupied land!! I'm tired of hearing American President double talk while trying to get more money and weapons to the Isra'elis when they know what they are doing is wrong?'
      They need to stop sending all this money to them and Ukraine they keep pretending too, to get American money, when they haven't been good to others!! This world is a trip and they are going to pay dearly and take innocent people along with them!! Americans need to wake up and fight and stand up against the wrong going on, hell Isr'eal is occupation stolen lands too, the PM is lying and pretending to get Americans money to keep coming in since 1948, when they fool the world of their status!! Americans can't continue to believe they are the holy people? When we all know that is a made up lie!!
      "All these wars need to stop, if governments and other countries disagree then they should be the one's fighting each other not the citizens, they should not be harm in their evil, they should go out into the desert and fight one on one? Not be pretending to find the enemy by blowing up innocent people homes and the people like scared un-train military that is shooting anything on purpose!!

    3. Okay, we killed them, but they were terrorists.
    4. Okay, they were civilians, but they were being used as human shields.
    5. Okay, there were no fighters in the area, it was our mistake, but we don’t target civilians, like Hamas.
    6. Okay, we've killed far more civilians than Hamas, but look at how terrible other countries are!

    I have to ask, what other way could have Palestinians, even Hamas, could have been listened to, to register their hopelessness and outrage at the occupation and treatment given them for decades - to be taken seriously - BESIDES a surprise attack of violence? They tried for so long to oppose the apartheid and control that Israel continued to justify and ignore. I don't condone the violence against Israel - but really - what would have convinced the Israeli's that these inequalities and injustice were morally, politically, and militarily - unsustainable to achieve peace and safety for Israel or Palestinians?

      Unfortunately the problem has never been to educate or inform the Israelis, the problem has been and is still to inform the American public about the corruption of theirs politicians and theirs médias. Israel has no means whatsoever to dominate the palestinians without the imprecedented political, financial and military support of the United States and theirs allies hiding theirs crimes behind lies and willful misinformation served to theirs populations. Even the churches leaders has been bought by the Israelis lobbies. The same lobbies that control the banks who borrow the needed money to buy the needed weapons from the factories owned by the same lobbies the whole paid off by American tax payer's money.
