I honestly think the world would be a much better place if all religion and religion leaders would have less power and sway in politics and even in everyday life.
As horrible as 7th of Oct was it doesn't change the fact that Israelis have committed atrocities both before and since then. Even Israelis themselves are protesting the behaviour of the government and army.
I live in a so called Christian society but come across the same here.
But it doesn't change the fact that human rights have been downtrodden there and we in the west have turned a blind eye to this horrible situation. Pointing at Hamas while not pointing at the Israelis for their behaviour is duplicity.
I think we agree on many things but probably we will not agree on this matter. I firmly believe Israelis should be stopped and Palestinians given time to heal and have peace. Because of the actions of last two years I am afraid we will not see permanent calm there in the near future.
They have the right to live, no matter what. I sm sorry if you do not understand that.
Have you read the Bible? Because there are really troublesome chapters there.
I wonder what would be your stand if you would have suffered humiliation and loss of freedom for decades like the Palestinian people by Israelis.
And again, no matter if there are bigots among them, it does not erase human rights.
And that video does not prove your point. No one denies the horrors but collective punishment is forbidden.
O, double standards are everywhere. Take a look at yourself and your nation.
And Palestine and Hamas are not one and the same.
Not human rights of gay or trans people, not human rights of Ukranians, not human rights of Palestinians. You do not loose your human rights because your skincolour is brown or if there are bigots and terrorist living among you. A lot of us would be in trouble if that were the case.
Please, educate yourself. And understand, human rights are not up for discussion.
I'll borrow the words of mattxiv:
The situation in Iran started with the US meddling and overthrowing a democraticlly elected government in 1953.
The situation in Gaza is the responisibilty of Netanyahu but also the US and Trump.
“Trump cuts off Medical Visas from Gaza after Laura Loomer, the right-wing provocateur, freaked out over a video of children from Gaza coming to the U.S. for medical care…”
Not pro-life.
They don’t care about protecting kids.

Every parent and teacher has had this conversations with a child or teenager who can find endless explanations and justification for his stupid actions. And there comes a time when an adult has to say: Enough of this nonsense - and make the child take responisibilty and face consequences
🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈
They have studied the worlds reaction to Israel and Gaza and now feel save to proceed.
The responsability is on Putin and also Trump.
"An entire family - our neighbors from the sixth floor - was killed..."
Oksana, a resident of an apartment building in #Kharkiv attacked by Russian drones, told that this morning, Russia killed her neighbors: a father, a mother, their two-year-old daughter, and their 16-year-old son.
🔥 “If I’m willing to drive three hours to come here and talk, I’m gonna ask you to get off your phone and listen to what I have to say.”
Yub, release the Epstein files.
And stop this unhealthy adoration and worship of your flag. To be proud of it and have nice feelings for it is one thing. To make it into some nationwide fetish is quite another!
To use religion or to be spouting out ancient religious texts has absolutely no place in modern societies and politics.
Why indeed?
Life comes at you fast
He could very likely be blackmailed by Russia, everyone knows there are enough skeletons in his closet.
But he was elected and supported by millions of Americans. And made his way and his (dirty) businesses in the US. So a "product" of the US, undoubtedly.
The Budapest Memorandum is a security agreement signed in 1994 by U.S. U.K. Ukraine, (ALL betrayed by Kremlin) with Russia, committing to respect Ukraine's independence, sovereignty, and existing borders in exchange for Ukraine giving up its nuclear weapons. Putin has betrayed U.S. U.K. and Ukraine.
