So how can they be legal Roman if they violate international law ? That's what that article detailed. The purchasing of the land breaks international law. The articles details how they used to hide their activities, because what they were doing is in violation of international law. Now it seems they don't really care about hiding their actions in regards to breaking international law. Much like you don't. You only seem to want to obey laws when it suits your purpose. And do you want to address the Annexation of land in the West Bank ? Like you get really pissed off about Russia Annexing Ukrainian land. But it's all good when the Isrealis Annex Palestinian land, right ? Just be honest with all of us Roman. You believe that all of Israel, east Jerusalem, the west bank and Gaza belong to Israel. And going by you referencing the Torah/Talmud, you believe a god gave it to the Isreali people. And I thought you weren't going to engage " with me Roman. It's good to have you back. Does Australia ensure that it always follows "international law"? Does any country? It's not really that simple. Israel doesn't stand alone in the world on this issue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit heavy handed considering what's happening in Gaza and the West bank But that's none of my business It is your business. Unfortunately you call out the crimes of one side only. You responded to a post displaying 'protests' that supported murdering & kidnapping of civilians Oct 7. Did not call those out. Its as if those activities we justified. https://twitter.com/i/status/1784357571941347813 Those who want 'peace' for Palestine should also want the release of Israeli civilian hostages. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s interesting how people living these comfortable and safe lives here seem to be experts on what’s happening in Israel and Gaza. Maybe these “experts” should go live a life they seem to be experts on? Alf! Aside from a few cat slobbering feast memes?

They are usually written by someone with certain agenda. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taxi Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 On 4/30/2024 at 5:56 PM, Ilunga said: Firstly, are you going to acknowledge you were wrong in regards to your claim that Israel did not help to form and fund Hamas' ? Or are you going to do what you always do, throw some BS out there and not admit you were wrong when it is debunked. You're not even remotely close to the truth. Israel has been at war with Hamas since 1984, when they found out that Yassin was lying about his intention to not be violent. Stop infantilizing the Palestinians. They made the choice to put Hamas in power. They continue to make that choice. Quote Isreal does not recognise Palestine as and independent state. Doesn't matter what the rest of the world states, when Isreal occupies the West Bank and East Jerusalem, and blockades Gaza. Effectively there has never been an independent Palestinian state. For decades Israel has been working against a two state solution, that is why they helped form Hamas'. Aylon, an ex head of the Shin Bet, who has actually made friends with Palestinians in Isreali jails is advocating for an independent Palestinian state, for the reasons, he, and I, have mentioned in other posts. rational, logical reasons. As for your claims about the Palestinians being offered a deal Here is an accurate timeline of the various attempts at a peaceful solution https://www.vox.com/world-politics/2023/11/22/23971375/israel-palestine-peace-talks-deal-timeline Bottom line " The more extreme elements of Israeli and Palestinian society, and their political leaders, have forestalled negotiations at critical moments. " So it's not only the Palestinians fault. Your claims about what neighbours are supposed to do. Are they supposed to steal your land, and terrorise, kill and injure you ? https://www.npr.org/2024/03/23/1236628495/israel-settlers-attack-west-bank-palestinians-settlement-outposts https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/apr/22/israel-settlers-violence-against-palestine-west-bank These are only a couple of examples from the last month or so. This has been going on for decades. Bottom line taxi, none of this justification for the killing of innocent women children. And causing the condition for starvation/famine, for hundreds of thousands more. Also murdering journalists and aid workers. If this was any other country, civilised countries would be placing sanctions on them. Just as the Jewish Council of Australia wants us to do. https://www.jewishcouncil.com.au/media/australia-must-cut-military-ties-sanctions-israel#:~:text=JCA,the escalating violence in Gaza. Most countries are not placing sanctions on Israel. In fact, there are more governments who support Israel being elected all the time. The "Jewish Council" is not an official organization of any kind. Their website looks like it was made yesterday using Square Space. I can guarantee you they do not represent the majority of Australian Jews. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This post illustrates you have no credibility whatsoever. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2023/11/21/world/israel-failed-policy/ " Hamas, for its part, is alleged to have the Israeli financed Islamist movement in Gaza, with Israels then military governor Brig. Gen. Yitzhak Segev disclosing that in 1981 that he had been given a budget to for funding Palestinian Islamists to counter the rising power of Palestinian secularists. Hamas a spinoff of the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, was formerly established with Israels support soon after the first Intifada flared in 1987 against the Isreali occupation of Palestinian lands. " There in black and white taxi. Hamas founded with Isreals support. " Isreals objective was twofold; to split the nationalist Palestinian movement led by Arafat, and more fundamentally to thwart the implementation of a two state solution for resolving the protracted Israeli - Palestinian conflict. By aiding the rise of an Islamist group whose charter rejected recognising the state of Israel, Israel sought to undermine the idea of a two state solution, including western support for an independent Palestinian homeland. Israel spy agency mossad played a role in this divide and rule game in the occupied territories. In a 1994 book, " The Other Side of Deception" Mossad whistleblower Victor Ostrovsky contended that aiding Hamas meshed with " Mossads general plan " for an Arab world " run by fundamentalists " that would " reject any negotiations with the west " thereby leaving Isreal as " the only democratic, rational country in the region ". Avner Cohen a former Isreali religious affairs official involved in Gaza for over two decades told a newspaper interviewer in 2009 that, " Hamas to my great regret, is Israels creation. " Israel by contrast persisted with its covert nexus with Hamas. With the consent of Isreal, Qatar, a long time sponsor of jihadi groups funnelled $1.8 billion to Hamas just between 2012 and 2019 according to the Haaretz newspaper. Israeli prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has been in power for much of the last decade and a half, told a meeting of his Likud party's Knesset members in 2019 that " anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas " adding " this is part of our strategy - to isolate Palestinians in Gaza from Palestinians in the West Bank ". Those are facts taxi. Here is a fact checking/ bias organisations assessment of my source https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/japan-times/ Factual reporting High Least biased High credibility rating Unlike you, who is continually proved to be wrong. And when you are presented with evidence that proves you are wrong, you don't have the courage to admit you are wrong. You double down with your lies. As for sanctions, I never stated that Isreal had sanctions placed on them. I stated that I agreed with the Jewish Council of Australia when it stated, that we, Australia should place sanctions on them. And where did I say that the JCA speaks for all Jewish Australians ? I didn't. They speak for Jewish Australians who have a conscience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
