I really can't take sides on this one since they're both guilty of committing crimes; however, I'm not going to say that you can't blame them for their actions because regardless of how the situation started, they should still be held accountable for their actions now. Basically, for this situation, to take sides is to be biased. But yes, I do agree with most people here that Israel got away with too many things they should've been called out on. But because most people with no Palestinian/Islamic connections view the violence caused by Palestine as "terrorism" and the ones by Israel as "justice," we really can't do much but just sit and watch them destroy one another. I understand that it must have been frustrating and unjust for the Palestinians to be kicked out of their own land to pay for the fuck-ups of the Western world but that was back then. No one ever stopped to think that they're fighting their grandfathers' wars - not theirs. I find it ridiculous how people take credit for the suffering of their predecessors.

^have no idea what that gif is supposed to mean. anyways, I dont see any common sense in unconditionally giving israel billions of dollars for defense while brewing anti-americanism among arabs and muslims at the same time. 9/11 anyone?

im not going to say anything more about this since it appears that im puling stuff out of my ass. instead read about it yourself, like this this book.

:nowant:


I have to agree, but both are at fault; I just see that the people of Palestine have at least some sort of justification for their government radical views. Israel is just power hungry. And by the way, they've been "at war" for the longest time, I think its surpassed half a decade now but Israel has had the support of the U.S a long time since and easily have the military to just wipe them right off the map, but they know media would be swarming all over that shit, I think its PR stunt. People think, oh this has been happening slowly for a long period of time, its just a struggle, who gives a ****.

You don't have to bro, it's hard enough to understand who's fault it is... I personally think it's; America's fault, and America should solve it instead supporting the war.

actually it's England's fault, they promised to both the Arabs and the Jews that they would get their land. The U.S. is only making it worse, Israël doesn't give a shit about what other countries say as long as the U.S. is backing them up.

during the last big assault on Gaza more than 1500 Palestinian citizens got killed and i believe only 10 Israeli soldiers lost their lifes. now i know the world owes it to the jews to give them their own land after the holocaust, but it looks like they're the nazi's now.

i really can't believe the U.S. is doing nothing but giving Israël ''warnings'', because it's a timebomb. one day it'll explodes and believe me if i say that that will be the beginning of WW3.

That's the Palestinians own fault for the way they fight, behind their own civilians.

yeah, it probably isn't Israël fault, even though they're heavily bombing one of the most populated areas in the world. who cares anyway, collateral damage right?

What does the history tells us about the conflict between the Israel and Palestine? Idn't know much about the conflict but I can say that Israel is using the power since they have the power and palestine is defending since they don't have the enough power. All of us know s that this conflict will end with the solution to one's death.

Is this a JOKE of a thread. :nowant:
It's obviously Palestine's fault 110%. For god fking sake, when Palestine, Lebanon etc. load rockets and bombs, and just impale rockets etc onto Israel from school, wtf do you expect, for a country that was placed there, a very small portion nonetheless, and just sit there and let themselves get destroyed? Are you retarded? It's not Israel's fault that they were put there, and some retarded Muslim radicals (religion is retarded regardless) send rockets over from schools, start wars etc. As SOON as Israel retaliates, it is instantly their own fault. And yes, the United States should have gotten involved, because retarded primitive warmongers who start fights should be stopped, and bring out the worst in people. It is the job of developed countries to protect the weak, and make sure innocent people don't die.
Honestly, whoever sides with Palestine should look at who started the conflict, and why they are fighting, and how hamas is a dangerous threat, that MUST BE STOPPED at once.

Well Reise, as shown by heroo and others, Jewish people face the most oppression in the entire world (I.E. France) Europe in the past etc.
Do you think they would deny such a seemingly fair and helpful opportunity, as protection and a safe haven? Now, they get bombed, and they defend themselves, and still face horrible antisemitism. It is DISGUSTING that people think it is Israel's fault.

I just think they could have taken a bit more time to think of the consequences.

Sure it's easy to say that both having not been there and years after the fact, but I think if they really wanted to be safe they wouldn't have agreed to such conditions knowing it would cause such conflict.

I think they knew they could rely on the early UN to support them, and that's where a lot of the anger came from.

I see what you're saying, but actually, if you put it like this, it would make it impossible to not side with Israel. It's not a matter of not thinking of consequences, it's the rational (im)maturity of the governments, civilians, and radical groups in the Middle East. It shows how radicals should not be able to control governments, and interference from more developed countries must be present, and these juvenile conflicts must stop. However, looking at the roots, the problems simply started from immediate attack from Palestinians and others.
