“ Nakba” is what Muslims call getting their asses kicked in the war they started in 1948 to wipe out the Jews the day after Israel declared independence.
They rejected partition, invaded with five armies, lost, then spent decades playing victim while expelling 850k Jews from Muslim lands (that were mostly Christian lands before they killed or ran them off too).
Selective memory isn’t history, Mr. Mayor - it’s propaganda.

[Adam Fisher @AdamRFisher]

This is a devious rhetorical trick. Labeling someone a “Nakba survivor” is designed to evoke instant sympathy and a false sense of moral clarity, but it is little more than taxpayer-funded propaganda.

Consider the absurdity: roughly 99% of Palestinian Arabs alive in 1949 survived the war and its displacements. Calling the displaced a “survivor” stretches the word beyond recognition. It is a newly coined term, crafted in academia and activist circles long after the events.

Its real genius lies in creating false equivalence. It places ordinary Palestinian civilians who were displaced amid a war their own leaders launched on the same moral plane as Holocaust survivors (of whom only about one-third emerged alive).

It airbrushes away the ~6,000 Jews killed in 1948, elevates the ~12,000 Arab deaths, and erases the thousands of Jews forcibly expelled from the Old City of Jerusalem and other areas.

By anointing the displaced as sacred “survivors,” the term invites us to forget that the Nazi-aligned Palestinian leadership rejected the UN partition plan, chose war to prevent any Jewish state, and promised quick victory while urging Arabs to flee.

It glosses over Israel’s Declaration of Independence, which explicitly invited Arab inhabitants to “participate in the upbuilding of the State on the basis of full and equal citizenship.” And it conveniently overlooks the ~150,000 Arabs who stayed put, accepted Israeli citizenship, and whose descendants now form over 20% of Israel’s population.

This is international grievance politics pushed by the Mayor of New York City, who genuinely believes that Palestinians should be able to “return to their homes” – a nonsensical idea designed to justify perpetual victimhood and violence.

The move weaponizes real civilian hardship while inverting roles: turning a war of choice and rejectionism into an unprovoked “catastrophe” inflicted by the intended victims. It sustain grievance and does not nothing to advance peace.

Dear Rage commenters:

If Israel wanted to kill all 2 million Gazans the next day, they could have. They didn't. If "genocide" was their intent, why would they only kill 3% if they could easily kill 100%? Why drop leaflets, provide humanitarian aid, medical care etc?

You have no answer, because there isn't one. Your "genocide" claim makes no sense. You haven't thought rigorously about any of this.

[Hillel Fuld @HilzFuld]

Let’s be clear on something.

If someone starts a war and then loses it, that’s not genocide.

Furthermore, if the victim of this so-called genocide can make it end the second they want to, that too is not genocide.

Hamas, with the support of the majority of Gaza (according to any and all polls) attacked Israel and lost. That’s not genocide.

If any of Israel’s enemies put down their weapons and stop attacking Israel, there will be peace immediately.

All Hamas had to do and has to do is lay down its weapons and the war ends.

They don’t want to because they want to keep attacking Israel? When Israel retaliates, that’s not called genocide.

And for all you morons saying Israel killed tens of thousands of children in Gaza, kindly answer me two questions:

1- What is your source for those numbers?

Spoiler: I know the answer. It’s the Gaza health ministry. They’re the only source for Gaza numbers. Israel didn’t release any official numbers.

Who do you think runs said ministry?

If you guessed Hamas, you win 10 points.

2- If Israel killed all those tens of thousands of innocent people, since you know the exact numbers, tell me, how many terrorists did Israel kill?

I ask because remember the Gaza health ministry?

Yea, they don’t differentiate between civilian and terrorist.

They also don’t differentiate between someone who died in war and someone who died from natural causes.

In other words, when you go around claiming Israel committed genocide and killed tens of thousands of innocent people in Gaza, you are walking around quoting rapists and pedophiles who lie when they breathe.

Israel has never started a war.
Israel has also never lost a war.

Oh, and one more thing. If Israel wanted to commit genocide in Gaza, if Israel wanted to kill every Gazan like these idiots claim, there would be no buildings standing and no Gazan breathing.

Think. Use your brain.

Even if you believe the ridiculous 70,000 number, divide that by the amount of bombs Israel dropped (assuming the math isn’t too hard for you.) and what you’ll get is the opposite of genocide.

If Israel is so strong like you claim it is when you accuse Israel of retaliating disproportionately, then how did israel, according to Hamas’ own numbers not kill millions?

Wanna know why? Because Israel never set out to commit anything even remotely resembling genocide.

Israel never set out to flatten Gaza or kill all Gazans.

Israel’s objectives for the war in Gaza are clear as are the objectives in Iran and Lebanon.

Glad we cleared that up.

Does this look like genocide to you?

Ohio St’s true freshman running back is named Bo Jackson.

He does things like this.

His given name is Lamar but he decided to go by Bo so people did not confuse him with Ravens Lamar Jackson.

So he called himself “Bo”
