Israel has equality under the law in places where it is the sovereign (inside the Green Line). In Gaza and Judea and Samaria, where Palestinians do not accept Israeli rule and habitually commit and praise acts of terror against civilians, Palestinian rights properly give way to Israeli national security — not by Israel’s choice but by the Palestinians! Even then, Palestinians self govern in 40% of Judea and Samaria and all of Gaza (at least before 10/7), just extremely poorly, corruptly, violently and with no respect for the human rights of their own people.
If Israel were to gain sovereignty over these sites, it would have the means to achieve human rights and prosperity for all, subject to the requirement that Israel remain the single Jewish State in the world — alongside so many Muslim and Christian states, to which no one seems to object.
@PeterBeinart Which law you talking about, sharia? Hamas doesn’t cares about what you call laws. Their aim is clear and the fact that you choose to look the other way, just makes your opinion irrelevant.
Gazans are calling for mass protests on June 26 against Hamas and its entrenched authoritarian, fascistic rule. The campaign, “The Voice of the Oppressed,” seeks to amplify the silenced majority in Gaza – voices crushed not only by Hamas, but also by its enablers in the West Bank, across the Arab and Muslim worlds, and within Western “pro‑Palestine” activist circles.
Gazans are exhausted by endless wars with Israel, perpetual Islamist repression, the collapse of their national hopes, and life as hostages to the suicidal nihilism of the Muslim Brotherhood and the Islamic Republic of Iran. Stand with the people of Gaza and elevate their voices; never speak over those who have lived under a terror regime that destroyed the Strip in the name of “resistance.”
Hamas will fall, externally and internally, no matter how long it takes.
he conflict between Israel and Iran isn't a short-term crisis, but a decades-long struggle driven by deep ideological differences. @havivrettiggur argues that understanding the 'long game' is crucial to grasping the true nature of the confrontation.

@BriannaWu Don't pay attention to those poll, they are manufactured. There is a silence majority in the west, that don't buy the "progressive" narrative. You can see in the Euro-vision popular vote.
The West, so long burdened by Holocaust guilt, having—so it seemed—gone through its reckoning with millennia of Jew-hatred, will have to do it all again. At the very moment it thought it had finally shed that guilt, it did it again.
The entire hate narrative against Israel after October 7 will not last. It will falter. The truth will prevail, as it always does. The West will be plunged again into shame. And those who stood in their convictions will triumph. They will reap the glory, not of power and mob rule, but of truth and justice.
@steady_drumbeat@MaxNordau Hamas is the most popular Palestinian political party and they don’t hide their genocide wishes. Please share a link for a Hamas leadership that back what you say.
@steady_drumbeat The Nakba was a result of war of extermination the Arabs started. Actions have consequences. I will consider compensation once all Jews expelled from the Arab world get compensation.
@pictorex@PeterBeinart According to the UN Israel didn’t occupied Gaza before Oct, 7. It didn’t occupied Lebanon and for sure it didn’t occupied Iran or Yemen. It’s a religious fundamentalist war. The occupation excuse is a lie that work on the naive.
@PeterBeinart Antizionism is built on three unfalsifiable libels—colonizer, apartheid, and genocide—used to stigmatize Israelis and those marked as “Zionists.” It is resistant to counter-evidence.
You are just a bigot, Peter. Start learning. Start apologizing.
My favorite thing to do when visiting other countries is to run from missile attacks targeted at civilians. Which is a war crime.
Wouldn’t it be great if anyone in the world cared about Israeli civilians?
