Israel vs Palestinians

[KB5252]

What was gained by vetoing a toothless UN resolution like this?

What would be gained by supporting it? Besides it being used for propaganda purposes?

 

[KB5252]

Don't deflect. You really think the U.S. is the most wicked entity on the planet?

Yeah, because of gay people serving in the military. Seriously, that's his mode of thinking on the subject.

I asked this same question to myself over the weekend. Why is the US dropping food like this instead of driving it in? Surely, the Israelis wouldn't fire at US convoys...

Probably trying to look like we give a damn…after blocking multiple UNSC resolutions for humanitarian ceasefires..

 

[82_VOL_83]

The United States is the most wicked entity on the planet right now. They can't even support a toothless UN resolution. What would have been the consequence of the US voting for this? Makes no sense.

One would think that you would pack up, put Pacer under your arm and GTFO.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Joined the nation in what manner? Converted to Judaism? Joined the state of Israel as a palestinians?

Became Israeli citizens. Identity as messianic so considered Christian by Israel

 

[Orangeslice13]

You got issues, man.

edit:
I apologize to you. We don’t often agree. But unlike the others who I pick on I find you to be consistent in your beliefs. I should not take shots at you like I do the hypocrites

 

[KB5252]

He has a wicked soul.

And yet you cheerlead for a man who routinely offs his political opponents and condemn this guy for his rhetoric.

Blue Font- At least you're consistent

 

[Orangeslice13]

And the ignorant answered. Sorry, it was on a tee.
So is the 'mine' your profession, your social club membership, or what, and what separates it from the 'yours' that it's worth a thousand of?

And there’s that “I win” BS again

Does your friend have full citizenship or is it conditional? Can they vote, own property, etc?

I am curious because I don't know anything about the politics for people who join the nation of israel like that.

 

[Orangeslice13]

What did I duck?

Almost every question ever asked of you. “You can look it up, if you can’t find it then that’s on you”
Or some other BS you like to say

 

[Orangeslice13]

Does your friend have full citizenship or is it conditional? Can they vote, own property, etc?

Full citizenship for about 10 years now

 

[McDad]

Full citizenship for about 10 years now

Last question (I think) would it be the same for a palestinian muslim or is that different?

 

[Orangeslice13]

Like you, it's hard for me to reconcile this stuff, but I'm not willing to call a Jewish-American "wicked" for siding with Israel on this. Maybe he is, but I'm not saying that.

It doesn’t matter what he or anyone else thinks of my soul. Just like what I think of yours is irrelevant before your creator.

He’s entitled to his opinion. The feeling is mutual

 

[Orangeslice13]

No idea.
It’s not as easy as it once was to join Israel. Possibly because those who wanted out from under Hamas have already left

 

[KB5252]

How many millions has the US killed in unwarranted wars between Korea and today? How many millions have been displaced and/or turned into refugees during that time?

Probably close to the same number Russia and China have in causing the upheaval and overthrow and wars in many of the same countries you attribute to the US for unwarranted wars. Yet you have no trouble with Russia for some odd reason.

I knew people (palestinians, jordanians, etc) lived and worked in Israel without incident. I didn't know there were non Jews who immigrated and assimilated with full rights. Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.

I cannot verify the source, but the article alludes to the safety of driver and not having to delay aid to the area.

During that time, how many $trillions have we given in aid and to how many countries?

Like I said, we have our issues and far be it from me to defend every single thing American. But looking at the regimes across the world, saying we are the most wicked is absurd. You have some valid points and interesting arguments here, but saying blanket statements like "America is the most wicked entity in the world" just makes you look foolish.

 

[EasternVol]

I am fine with that but I could make the argument that this is a SPORTS Message Board for Tennessee Volunteer fans and alumni. If he doesn't fit into the Tennessee Volunteer fan or alumni grouping, there is an argument he can go somewhere else.

Even the Political Forum itself is kind of dubious but to be fair, Ras and this forum do give the forum life during the offseason when you don't have a lot of sports items to talk about.

Isn't this is the second time that you've come out with 'I asked the mods to ban Ras because he's a Russian bot/troll' and the second time you've gotten unanimous negative feedback?

 

[EasternVol]

Then tend to play the "yes Hamad is bad. Butttttt. IDF IS BOMBINGS THEM" type hysterics

Hysterics? Can we get those delivered?

I still haven't heard whether he is actually based in the United States or not.

They can ping my IP all day, not only am I in the United States but I am in Tennessee. This isn't a public forum, it is a forum for Tennessee sports fans.

 

[EasternVol]

I didn't say that though.

Be honest now, it's very rare and when I do refuse an answer it's justified.

If identifies as messianic then Jewish?

I wouldn't matter if he's on the moon.
