And even more so when you clearly don't have historical knowledge of the conflict. This new generation thinks that researching conflicts via TikTok educates them well enough to form opinions.

RomanPer is probably very emotional right now as he is very close to the situation. He went on a ignore binge today putting people on ignore if he disagreed with them. I'll cut him some slack. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few Muslim Isrealis heading off to battle refutes what so many other people/ organisations both within Isreal and outside of it state, that Isreal practices arpartheid on the Palestinian people. This has to be taken seriously. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about the fact that anyone with Jewish heritage can get citizenship and move to Haifa, but if your Palestinian grandparent fled his home in Haifa when his neighbors were executed, hes not allowed to return? 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have to wonder why someone from Israel would disagree with such an assessment. I didn't know he's from Israel so I'll stop it there but that doesn't mean I agree with what Israel's been doing to Palestine for the greater part of the century.

I'm talking about Hebron, a city in the West Bank (PALESTINE) where PALESTINIANS are not allowed to walk, but if you have an Israeli Passport you can. NOT a city in Israel. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also the matter of the Ethiopian Jews. Isn't Israel supposed to be a homeland for all Jews? The treatment of the Ethiopian Jews has been shabby at best.

This thread will drive some of us apart. Politics and Religion always do this. But one thing I will always concede is that I don’t have all of the answers and I will freely admit when I am wrong. I have even apologized many times to posters on CDC for some stupid remarks. I am a sinner. I don’t proclaim to be perfect. Neither is anyone else. As I have always stated, I never make it personal and I don't get why people do. Never had a warning point, never reported anyone. Never used a negative emoji. On the old forum one of my last posts was to apologise to anyone I had offended. 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, what are you talking about? Have you heard of operation Solomon that airlifted Ethiopian Jews to Israel in 1991? Is everything ok within Israel between different waves of immigration? No. There are issues between Moroccan Jews and former Soviet Jews, for example. But these are internal issues within Israel and more importantly - these are not systematic but rather between insecure people with different backgrounds. This exists in every society. What “shabby” treatment are you talking about? Edited October 11, 2023 by RomanPer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
