Middle East Conflict Megathread (Syria, Iraq, Yemen, etc)

[Kubumba Tribe]

"Schoolyard bully" is an understatement.

"School Shooter" would be more accurate with the school analogy

Exactly!

[Northern Davincia]

Your disdain for civilization is regrettable.

>Israel
>Civilization

By equating these two you are showing that you are the one that hates civilization. Israel is merely a school yard bully. Nothing laudable about that.

Remind me of that when homosexuality is legalized in Palestine (or any human rights for that matter).

Blowing up kids playing soccer is the pinnacle of civilization to you, then. I guess you're a staunch ISIS advocate, then.

Israel and Palestine are competing to see how unlikeable they can be and still have people support either of them alone. News at 11.

Blowing up innocent school children, sniping kids at a border, pushing people deeper into the desert to establish more settler colonies: civilization.

Existing on your native land for thousands of years, getting colonized by westerners, being forced by western powers to abandon your homes because a whole new civilization is being forced into existence on your land by the major powers of the world: barbarity.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Civilization is a domestic thing. If it were applied to foreign policy, only the Swiss would qualify.

Do you honestly believe Palestine is innocent in the act of child-killing?

Acting like barbaric thugs to the very people you stole land from is not acting civilized.

No, but pretending one society of being civilized despite slaughtering children while in the same breath declaring another society barbaric for the same thing is pretty hypocritic I'd say. :^)

When did they do this?

>Export Jewish people to the Nazis

Yeah nah

Were there not Jews living in Germany's own borders? Especially when those borders expanded via conquest?

That's pretty standard, actually. The Romans gave us the precedent for doing so.

Israel offers some hope for scientific progress, gender equality, and secularism in the Middle East. Anything else is a preference to regression.

Yes, they are.
I'm not saying Israel is innocent, but saying that Palestine is a oppressed victim that never did a wrong think in its existence is blatantly false.

The people launching rockets into Israel, sending suicide bombers, and targeting Jewish children?

[Torrocca]

Yeah nah

The fuck does that have to do with Switzerland and your dumb claim that they're civilized when it comes to foreign policy when contrary to that claim they sent off Jewish people to die to Nazi hands?

1. I can't seem to find much information on Switzerland exporting Jews. Care to enlighten me?
2. If it hadn't occurred to you before, being oppressed does not make you progressive, although I can fully understand why you'd believe as much.

Considering you said the same about israel, do you?

From the Swiss government itself.

Being oppressed doesn't make you barbaric, either. So cut the shit.

All I can see is that the Swiss turned away refugees, which is hardly equivalent to exporting them (and it's not like they had many options to begin).
And furthermore, I never argued that being oppressed makes one barbaric. Barbarism is a separate quality.

your views on the topic are morally reprehensible

The Swiss specifically were involved in getting the Nazi government to specially mark Jewish passports so they could turn them away. They fucking very well sent them off to death like a bunch of barbaric fuckwits.

Nah, but you argued that Palestinians are barbaric with no standing metric or any basis in reality while the Israelis, who do the same shit they do, are "civilized".
