Interesting debate in Israel

[carmanmemoranda]

Legally, morally and actually, Israel as a Sovereign State has a right to defend itself, which it will be forced to do again this week, and next week and the week after.,

You really look at the issues very simplistic and biased.

Legally, really ?

It's not only your sarcasm antenna that isn't working, obviously your humour antenna isn't working either.

Yawn. If you say so. Don’t like it when you’re caught out by your own words do you? Always there’s extenuating circumstances in those cases isn’t there?

 

[denso13]

Always there’s extenuating circumstances in those cases isn’t there?

Like the Israeli barbarism? Nail on the head.

Fight barbarism with barbarism I say. Fair play will get you nowhere in a war.

 

[denso13]

Fight barbarism with barbarism I say

Which works both ways.

 

[Mottie]

Which works both ways.

So what’s the problem and what’s the solution?

 

[denso13]

So what’s the problem

You don't see a problem with barbarism? It's vile and disgusting what people are going through.

and what’s the solution

At the moment I don't see one, but ultimately a two state solution has to happen.

 

[Mottie]

Not in revenge for other barbarism, no.

"Israeli is not a civilized nation any more than it is a democracy. Everything about it is archaic and barbaric; a nation state based on ethnic identity, an ethnic identity based on racial superiority, a racial superiority based on a religious dogma of grievance and revenge. The civilized world got past these things in the great wars a century ago. The Israelis ability to live in a constant state of war and to execute the mass killing of non-Jews with impunity is absolutely barbaric."

For those that are not hard of thinking, it is absolutely obvious that claiming an offensive, distasteful or untrue comment was a joke after the event, is not genuine nor an acceptable excuse.
But my comment was so obviously a joke and I recognised it at the time. I even accompanied it with a smiley emoji, just in case any hard of thinking people misunderstood that it was a humorous comment.
That isn't a smiley emoji. That's a rolleyes emoji.

There are rules, even in war.

 

[Mottie]

There are rules, even in war.

Rules are meant for both sides and they go out of the window when one side doesn’t follow them.

 

[Mrs Ten Names]

Rules are meant for both sides and they go out of the window when one side doesn’t follow them.

Then the moral high ground has been sacrificed for revenge.
And the victims become the perpetrators.
