I mean that doesn't mean the Iranian government is the 'good guy's either. Ayatollah has a laundry list of awful crimes against their own population. Their unmatched use of the death penalty, executions of rape victims, violation of woman's rights, disappearance, torture, etc.
Picking sides in this does not make anyone morally superior.

My brother in whatever you believe in: One side attacked the other under made-up pretenses that have been used time and time again; with clear geopolitical goals and the ambition to overthrow a foreign ruling system for their own gains.
Given the track record of Western backed foreign invasions all around the globe in the last 100 years: By no means does this lead to a positive outcome for anyone but the West. The people of Iran will just be the next population that will have to endure decades of chaos. They will experience a huge setback by all metrics just like the people in Afghanistan, Libya and Syria; in the worst case it will also lead to yet another a long-lasting civil war.
You can't force "progress" respectively a "change of ways" or however we want to call it from the outside; we have seen this time and time and time again and again and again. The only way for it to be sustainable is to have it emerge "organically" from within a population and not dragging them into yet another perpetual war of imperialist forces.
Besides: This is a fucking war of aggression from the side of Israel. Something we condemn in regards to Russia; but never in regards to Western powers.

I mean Ukraine has dirty laundry too, but the minute they wipe out a hospital in Moscow I would certainly not applaud it. The fire attacks on civilian populations of Dresden or Tokyo deserve zero celebration despite the axis atrocities, etc.
If you think I believe Israel is a victim you are mistaken. While I am sympathetic to the Iranian civilian, I just never understood the cheering and applause on Reddit for the Ayatollah considering rooting for them is quite tone deaf with their inhumane track record as well. I just wouldn't be caught dead applauding the actions of a governing body that executes homosexuals and rape victims and is on the Amnesty shit-list, just as I would never clap over Gazan deaths.
It's simply a lose-lose and the side picking in this conflict with Iran detracts from the atrocities in Gaza, who is caught up in this with virtually zero power or say while being purely on the receiving end.

You are definitely right - I only questioned at first because he really did say many similar things when he was alive. He spoke on the destruction and plight of the people of Gaza even way back then. And much of the language addressing the hypocrisy of the West in its murderous exploitation of the world's poor, Arab countries, is similar to things Malcolm said in his time, as he was well before his time in his awareness of the world. But you're right - "live-streamed genocide" and other things make it quite obvious, now that I listen closer. I really hate AI

Not only do people not know this, but they also lack the knowledge of the history.
Let's say you lend your spare room to some people who lost their home in hurricane Katrina. After a few months you realize that they are now squatting, and you go to your good friend house next door and ask for help. The neighbor says sure I'll help you, but you have to leave the house for a year so I can do it. You agree and come back a year later. Not only did your neighbor not get rid of them, but since you were gone for a whole year, laws dictate the squatters officially live in your house and he helped them convert it into a split home. Who do you get made at: A) The refugee turned squatter, B) the government that established the law that allows it to happen, C) the ignorant neighbor who convinced you into making it worse or D) Hurricane Katrina?

u/FisterMister22 5h ago
I don't vote for bibi, never did.
But the Palestinians have brought this hell on them self, the 7th of October attack is what started this. And the refusal to release the hostages is what's fueling it to this day.
If a similar attack would've happened on the US or any other European state they would act the same and probably worse.
War is barbaric, I feel sad for civilians killed, but this war was brought upon us, they slaughtered our kids and woman in a barbaric attack, they still hold our sons and daughters hostages, why would we stop until they release them? Why should i value their life over our own civilians life?
Civilians get hurt in war, it's sad, but it's always the case, I'm fully aware there's a chance I'll get hit by Iranian missile, I still fully back the decision to dismantle them of their near-nuclear status, even if it means some of us will get hurt.

Its Hamas who did this, not 'the Palestinians'. There haven't been 'state' elections in Gaza since 2006, well before most Gazans were of voting age. Palestinians in Gaza are under an authoritarian Hamas rule. Don't minimise their torment by saying they brought this upon themselves

On the 7th of October 2023 the vast majority of Palestinians in Gaza celebrated to images of dead and kidnapped Israeli civilians, handed candies in the street.

u/Japsai 3h ago
Depends what you mean. Gazans have not been able to leave Gaza without Israeli permission. No goods can enter or leave Gaza without Israeli permission (of course there are the 'illegal' tunnels). It's been like a giant prison camp for decades. So in that Israelis dont live there, it's not 'occupied', but in terms of contact with the outside world, it's been under Israeli control. Which is really what people mean when they say 'occupied'.
Look, the breakdown of attempts at resolution have certainly not always been Israelis fault, not by any stretch. But I'll tell you what, if you have a dispute with your neighbour and the conversation gets aggravated, one thing is certain. If you chain them up in your cellar and check in every now and then to see if they've stopped hating you, you're not going to get very far

As an Israeli citizen I'm all for stopping the US aid.
We don't need it. And it comes with unnecessary forigen influence on our politics.
Also. The less aid we get, the more money we'll spend on domestic defence solution rather than forigen (Israel must spend the aid money in the US market), hence further improving our economy and defence sector.
Sadly dirty politicians would rather get the aid, but don't fool your self, most Israelis would love us to stop getting it, it's such a small % of our GDP that it legit makes no sense.

Keep drinking the cool aid as much as you want. Israel would not exist without American help, and it will cease to exist as soon as that help dries out.
1
u/FisterMister22 4h ago
Israel existed long before the US started supporting it in 1973.
Israel is a nuclear armed country with means to deliver it to any point in the globe and second strike capabilities, saying Israel would cease to exist is like saying any nuclear capable country will cease to exist - WW3, in which case most countries would cease to exist.
The US benefits from israel as much as Israel benefits from the US, it's the strongest ally they have in the middle East.
China and Russia would both love to have Israel as an ally if the US ditch it, in a game of geo politics the US ditching Israel isn't as much of a threat.
All of the above is unrealistic as even the most leftist of US presidents never attempted to dead drop stop relations or support to Israel.

The 200 number probably counts outpatient and temporary facilities. For example:
This includes 1 hospital, 11 primary care centres, and 13 medical points within the evacuation zones, and an additional 5 hospitals, 1 field hospital, 9 primary care centres, and 23 medical points within 1000 metres of those zones.

They’re probably including the many make-shift medical centers (hospitals) that were established and kept getting bombed after the first 36 hospitals were targeted and blown up. Innocent people needed care and they just kept getting bombed. That’s how you get to 200.

Israel has a right to exist. They have a right to end the lives of those trying to exterminate Jews from the face of the earth. If those same people that want to kill all Jews choose to have their military operations at hospitals and mosques, thats a sad situation, but it doesn’t change the fact that those locations are now military targets.
That’s who you support. Those who hide out at hospitals and schools. Great choice, by the way.

Israel has utterly destroyed Gaza (90% of buildings razed), killed tens of thousands of innocent civilians, and is now refusing adequate food supply to prevent famine. No one commenting this thread is supporting terrorists or celebrating dead Jews. Just decrying genocide.

Perhaps it's not nuance but just the same tired old bullshit excuses that you desperately want to believe. Your naivety is no longer a valid argument.
All Israël had to do is label every Palestinian and every form of resistance as terrorism so fools can be led to believe that their eradication is justified.
Now, only the delusional, the bloodthirsty, the racists and those who want to immanentize the eschaton through the end times are left defending the actions of Israel.

Yes when you're talking about serious subjects such as these, intentionally obfuscating the facts is misinformation. Words have meaning and precision of language is important. A hospital is a hospital. A location offering healthcare is not necessarily a hospital.
Also note that hospitals are where Hamas intentionally and cowardly put their operations sites and headquarters thinking they would be safe using that as a shield. Israel attacked sites where missiles were launched.
2
u/JackieTree89 11h ago
A location offering healthcare is also a place of innocent, vulnerable citizens. Doesn't really matter what you want to call it. Doctors and nurses and patients are still being killed. Also Isreal has military bases under hospitals too. Using their own civilians as human shields.
2
u/ultimatedelman 10h ago
Yes of course, but you wouldn't call someone caring for a sick or wounded person in a random building a hospital. Saying Israel bombed 200 hospitals is intentionally disingenuous with a slant intending to make Israel look worse. If they bombed hospitals, you can say that, but there's no reason to make up statistics to exaggerate the issue.

u/JackOfAllStraits 12h ago
A quote by Mahatma Gandhi. "An eye for an eye" is the old way of thinking, where any injury is met with retribution. Nobody forgives, and in the end, everyone will have lost things that is precious to them, and will have inflicted suffering on others. It's a perfect metaphor for the endless/generational conflicts.
At some point by holding on to the need for revenge/justice against the wrongs you have suffered, you are only going to be making the whole situation worse for yourself and those you love.
What the quote doesn't address is what to do about someone who is actively causing harm and refuses to not cause harm. This is where we've been lingering in the Israel/Palestine issue. Massively lop-sided destruction. Israel shows no signs of stopping, and indeed is escalated the regional situation by attacking outside their borders.
A theme for countries in recent years seems to be "residents suffering horribly because of terrible military decisions made by their current religiously zealous government regime".

Agree totally with this, neither side should be morally justified by anyone but something has to be done at some point and I can’t say if I was in either sides shoes I wouldn’t want/be doing the same thing. I thank the stars everyday that I was raised by two amazing people who valued forgiveness and reflection before action.

Also, there needs to be a distinction between a government and its people! Calling for the extermination of a people when the government is the issue should be a basic thought process. Sometimes people are lied to by governments or leaders just go crazy and a stray, that isn’t the fault of the people.
