Issue is when a relevant criticism of Israel is labeled as anti-Israel/anti-semitic.

Just like it is an issue when anti-semitic/anti-Israel content is labeled as a relevant criticism. Needless to say, at least here on lemmy I see the second situation not very common.

theotherverion ,

If Israel disappeared, the situation would be far worse. Because despite all of their actions, israel is still million times better than Iran and its proxies.

What I can agree with you, though, is the fact that current regime there and people in power are dangerous both for Israel itself and the rest of the world

theotherverion ,

So rather terrorist organizations that don’t mind to bomb anyone from Israel to Russia? Fine.

theotherverion ,

Okay and. I don’t know how it is related.

theotherverion ,

I am not racist against Iranians. I just consider Iran quite a dangerous country considering what their proxies are doing.

theotherverion ,

For everyone. For the locals because these terrorist proxies do not seem to care about civilians at all and for the rest of the world because Iran would become a nuclear superpower and that’s pretty dangerous considering what their proxies are capable of.

theotherverion ,

There is still no confirmation of genocide. And a nuclear war is far worse.

theotherverion ,

So it’s USA’s fault that islamic state bombed russia. Everything is USA’s fault and we need to get rid of USA.

Good job excusing terrorism and blaming someone else…

theotherverion ,

Genocide is not really possible to prove unless clear intent is shown. That’s the reason why ICJ didn’t explicitly call it a genocide.

theotherverion ,

Yes, they ordered Israel to make sure it does not happen. But it was not worded in a way that Israel commits genocide.

That’s in fact pretty understandable considering the fact how difficult it is to prove genocide.

theotherverion ,

There is never mentioned in the ruling that Israel commits genocide. Only that it has to make sure it does not happen. That’s the difference.

theotherverion ,

Is there ever mentioned that Israel commits the act of Genocide?

theotherverion ,

My point that ICJ hasn’t accused Israel of genocide still stands. My another statement, which says it’s very tricky to prove genocide, still stands because ICJ hasn’t accused Israel of genocide.

theotherverion ,

No matter how one supports Israel, this is inexcusable. The vehicle was marked.

theotherverion ,

I personally am avoiding Teslas because they objectively suck.

theotherverion ,

So russian. Reminds me what happened to Kursk.

Israel moves to shut down Al Jazeera after new law allows for ‘security threat’ bans on international media | CNN (edition.cnn.com)

Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to shut down news network Al Jazeera following the passage Monday of a sweeping law allowing the government to ban foreign networks perceived as posing a threat to national security....

theotherverion ,

Unfortunately democracy index was released few weeks ago, but would like to see how this change would affect it.

Despite the fact AlJazeera spreads bullshit most of the time, a law like this can be easily used against other journals, as well.

theotherverion ,

They lack objectivity.

theotherverion ,

Every newspaper is somewhat biased but aljazeera is biased more than the others.

theotherverion ,

None is 100% objective but associated press, for example, is far better than AJ.

theotherverion ,

Obviously Aljazeera has more journalists there but that does not change the fact their articles provide a lot of bias.

theotherverion ,

I don’t think the problem is with me. Feel free to check media bias fact check about aljazeera.

theotherverion ,

It gets mixed reviews because of several not corrected fact checks and strong bias towards Qatar. By the way, the country it is located in is not even free.

The opinion page also uses emotional language.

So to summarize, it literally belongs to the same category as daily wire. Do you consider Daily wire credible?

theotherverion ,

I stated they belong to the same category.

theotherverion ,

Your quotes are purposefully picked out of context.

theotherverion ,

That’s the thing, I didn’t read entire paragraph but entire article

theotherverion ,

I have not said they are the same bias, I said they both have mixed ratings for multiple failed fact checks.

theotherverion ,

Yes, laws like this should not be present even if the targeted media spreads bullshit.

Problem is that laws like this can be used also against media that spread correct information, but point out Government’s mistakes (such as Haaretz)

US pushes alternatives to Rafah invasion in Hamas war talks with Israel (apnews.com)

WASHINGTON (AP) — Top American and Israeli officials held virtual talks Monday as the U.S. pushed alternatives to the ground assault against Hamas under consideration by Israelis in the southern Gaza city of Rafah, a move the U.S. opposes on humanitarian grounds and that has frayed relations between the two allies....

theotherverion ,

It’s very normal that US presidents (and West in general) unconditionally support Israel.

theotherverion ,

Palestinians are not citizens of Israel. They have their own authorities.

theotherverion ,

Saying Israel was found on colonialism is a bullshit.

theotherverion ,

This comparison is exaggerated.

theotherverion ,

I think my response was to the point. It discussed a flaw in your statement.

theotherverion ,

It’s sad for Palestinians but at the same time Egypt’s stance is quite understandable.

theotherverion ,

I would understand that Palestinians did not want to accept Israel’s offer but they never came up with a different plan. They just left the table and that is partially one of the reasons why Palestine looks that way

theotherverion ,

Just to add: Arab countries also expelled roughly 900k jews in 20th century.

So whilst Israel’s actions weren’t right, many Arab countries did literally the same, so they are the last ones that can blame Israel for that.

theotherverion ,

So when Israel displaces many Palestinians, it is an Issue but when Arab countries do the same to Jews, it is suddenly politicized. There were several situations (let’s say libya) where hundreds of jewish homes were burned.

If so few were forced to leave, why are there so few Jews in Iran, Libya and many other Arab countries?

If you justify the expelling of Jewish population from Arab countries, you can easily justify expelling many palestinians. In the end, the Arab countries started the war, so expelling 700k foreign agents is fully justified… Suddenly it sounds so absurd.

theotherverion ,

One state solution is completely surreal if you don’t want one group completely oppressing the other.

theotherverion ,

I think it is quite comparable when states displace a certain group of people.

theotherverion ,

How do you want to 2 types of people that hate each other exist in 1 state?

theotherverion ,

I am not sure how argument that Palestinians hate Zionists and not Jews after what hamas did on 7th October. There was literally a video of a terrorist who was proud because he killed a Jew.

theotherverion ,

Well yes, but you cannot achieve communism in one day. To get there, you firstly need socialism which is a direct path to communism.

And the idea of limiting higher limit of income very much reminds this pattern.

theotherverion ,

Even in socialist countries like Czechoslovakia you had income (a sign of capitalism) but it was purposefully limited, so no one earns too much. This is literally the same.

theotherverion ,

Elections in North Korea don’t seem to affect other democracies. I don’t see why I should state that.

theotherverion ,

Yes, that’s the unfortunate thing that many countries called their regimes not so correctly, hence why certain misunderstandings could happen.

What I meant was the regime in eastern Europe between 1948-1990s. In these countries (I live one of them), we refer to this regime when saying “socialism” despite the definition not being 100% exact, hence why I used this term. Sorry for misunderstanding. If you have a more exact name for this system, let me know.

theotherverion ,

The main issue I have with this idea is that why should we limit people’s achievements. If they can achieve more than 100m, why should we prohibit them from doing it. This theory has the main foundation in the fact that the government is always more capable than individuals and always makes the right decisions, which is false.

Imagine you have 200 million and you want to use 100m to build a hospital but instead your country takes it and sends it to Israel to support their useless military operation. Would you be happy about that? Similar things happen in my country - Slovakia, where governments have not been capable of building a modern hospital in the capital city. It took roughly 30 years and 100 million € only to have a big hole dug to a hill. On the other hand, private investor came and we suddenly have a modern hospital in our capital.

Simply put, I fully understand that the money of ultra rich people can be better used but I do not believe that setting a hard cap to 100m would solve it. What for those that have 90 million? That is still enough money to cause a lot of shenanigans. Hence why I believe more in an alternative solution: sanctioning extremely stupid use cases many billionaires abuse. E.g. if the billionaire wants to use his private jet for 100km, they need to invest in tree planting. This way we would also cover those that earn 30m or 90m and not limit possible achievements.

theotherverion ,

People are greedy. That’s the fact. Same applies to the ones sitting in the government.
