    And they’ve also got drones and jets, so it would be pretty easy to airstrike anyone who breached the border wall.

    … You want to spend a minimum of 200 million USD to airstrike breaches? That’s grossly unrealistic.

    Might does not make right.

    But Russia didn’t declare war when they invaded Crimea, likewise they didn’t when it came to Ukraine. For Taiwan, it wouldn’t be rightfully theirs, but they will still control it. But you see, that brings us back to the loop, where the Jews have historic claim to the land before Palestine but lost a war and were taken away from the land. That’s why the two-state solution was really the only peaceful method of resolution, which the Arabs didn’t accept.

    Just because Nat Turner and John Brown lost doesn’t mean they should have just said “oh well” and kept slavery. The Native Americans losing against the US didn’t justify forcing them onto reservations.

    Don’t know who those people are.

    Reuters wrote about it, that’s the least biased news website I can think of.

    Thank you! That is very disgusting behaviour, and Israel should do better. But again, as usual, Hamas did it first, killing paramedics during the massacre. Not that it’s justified, it is not. Gaza, Israel–no one is innocent here.

    But if you’re open to change your mind, I’m happy to continue talking about this.

    What do you think I need to change my mind on?

    There’s a genocide, yes, it ticks enough of the ten stages to be one. Likewise, Gaza wishes to genocide Israel. However, Palestine, specifically Gaza, put itself in a difficult situation with poor choices like trying to overthrow neighbouring governments of friendly/neutral nations.

    See I think we speak from Western privilege, where we can voice our opinions on these matters, but ultimately, we have no power and no input; we don’t live there, and we don’t experience the terror both groups feel and the hatred they have for one another. We can feel sadness, who wouldn’t? But I think Westerners should shut up and just let what happens, happen, the land has been fought over for millennia, and it has nothing but death to show for it, will it stop?

    If the West needs to get involved, at least accept refugees who are in favour of secularism, specifically the oppressed women and the children.
