    I think what Israel is doing in the west bank regarding their settlement policies is really messed up. They should stop expanding them and the existing ones should either be torn down or exchanged through land swaps that compensate Palestinians more than fairly. Now let me ask you this Mr Rock: How would you like Israel to respond to the attacks by Hamas?

      @100_percent_a_bot See you’re still being intellectually dishonest, or don’t you realize that you can’t defend yourself from territory you don’t own. All the settlements are illegal.
      That’s what’s wrong with you people, you are constantly trying to whitewash Israel standing outside of their own borders as if that’s normal or acceptable. When any other people, would be at war with them in a heartbeat, decades ago

        Oh but they do own the areas that are constantly attacked through rocket barrages of various terrorists, including hamas from Gaza. I think their responses are often disproportionate but they very well have a right to go after the terrorists.

            Oh you actually completely changed my mind about a grand geopolitical conflict that has been going on for decades by pointing at some random shit, good job buddy. The brain worms must be proud.

                You have literal brain damage if you think that current day Israel is anywhere close to where the nazis were. As a german I think it’s disgusting that you guys (meaning you and your brain worms) equate everything you don’t like to nazis because that’s the only history you think you know (you don’t).

                Besides, I have way more faith in Israel holding the perpetrators of this shooting accountable, should it turn out that the shooters are Israeli than I would have for Hamas or the PA holding anyone accountable ever for killing Israeli citizens. They literally have a fund set up to pay the families of people who kill Israeli and get themselves killed or imprisoned in the process.

                  @100_percent_a_bot and now we will see your problem, you’re a German with a pro Israel bias. To the extent at which you’ll excuse all of their atrocities against the Palestinians because of your national guilt.

                  If it helps to know, we forgive you. You need to forgive yourselves. The only way Israel differs from Nazi Germany, is the lack of the train service to the Palestinian territories. Aside from that, Israel’s conducting ethnic cleansing, Holocaust minor if it makes you feel any better

                    Didn’t ask, your forgiveness means nothing to me because I didn’t owe you anything to begin with. My stance on the issue has nothing to do with my nationality, I’d just pick a flawed democracy that somewhat enforces liberal values over a dictatorship of terrorists that rewards people for murdering jews.

                    And it shows that you know absolutely nothing about the holocaust if you think that what Israel is doing right now is anywhere close to it. In fact, there’s probably no genocide in the history of humanity that was anywhere close to the scale and brutality of it. If Israel wanted to actually cleanse Gaza from the map we wouldn’t see 15k dead (and that’s the upper end Hamas number) within two months but rather 10 - 20 times that within weeks. Israel has the means of wiping them off the map completely so why don’t they?

                  @100_percent_a_bot also, it should be mentioned that Israel really prosecutes and punishes Israeli citizens for attacking and killing Palestinians. Even when convicted, their sentences are absurdly light.
                  Other times they get rewarded for doing it, weren’t you just saying this about the Palestinians? It appears your other issue is that you’re ignorant of the situation.
                  Israel is a terrorist nation, remember that

                    You pointed to Israeli getting sentences for crimes against Palestinians. Can you point to any Palestinians who got even absurdly light sentences for killing Israeli?

            Sure thing. They should just continue to lob rockets into Israels general direction and keep killing thousands of their own as suspected Israel collaborators, that will show them

              @100_percent_a_bot as compared to Israel lobbing rockets directly at civilians, oppressing civilians for literal generations and thinking that somehow you living in that environment would find it acceptable.

              If the shoe were on the other foot, probably wouldn’t side with your foreign occupier

              You need to learn to think outside the box

                  @100_percent_a_bot Anything outside of Israels borders. Good luck with that

                  Stop supporting ethnic cleansing. It was wrong when your people did it to the Jews, it’s wrong when the Israeli are doing it to the Palestinians

                    Well according to Hamas and much of the Arab world, Israel proper is Palestine. Let’s make a deal: I’ll stop supporting the ethnic if you stop spreading terrorist propaganda
