I’m familiar with the concept of transfer (and the Nur paper is indeed very interesting). However, we can’t turn back the clock. It happened a hundred years ago and it sucks. It was awful. That being said, Israel is not going anywhere and the Jews are never going to change gears --esp after Oct 7. Despite their grievances, the Palestinians walked away from several proposals for two state solutions. The return to the 67 borders was only palatable after the Palestinians walked away and it backfired. The fact remains: Israel did cede copious amounts of land back to the Palestinians (after first intifada) and Israel also demolished many settlements. It takes two to tango and negotiations with Palestinian leadership never seems to work out. It’s unfortunate that Gaza is turning into an apartheid condition and I don’t condone the way the IDF is handling the situation at all.

Edit: by the way, I’m appreciating the links to articles and sources you provide.

Too bad Palestinians turned down multiple times a two state solution.

Maybe. They most certainly have monological worldview. Every statement is distilled down to a binary prism of logical deductions. It’s either A or B. There is no other alternative.

Again with the buzzwords “western imperialism pattern”. You have nothing of substance to say. It’s like a bingo card of poli-sci 101 buzzwords

These are not arguments. It is a list of fun buzzwords. Do you have anything specific or concrete to talk about? Am I talking to ChatGPT? I need to know! Are you my skynet daddy?

You’re doing it again and at this point it feels intentional. You’re taking five different things that are unrelated and mixing them but throwing enough vague terms hoping that something will stick:

• French troops in Africa
• Nato in Kosovo
• Or Israel (whatever that means)
• Or many other places in middle east (whatever that means)

This is a gish gallop

I asked what you stated had anything to do with Nato and your answer was

it’s a bag of problems.

So I said

You didn’t answer the question.

And you said

oh no.

So now we’re left wondering if you’re senile or just trolling.

Should we not be asking clarifying questions to your vague posts?

You didn’t answer the question

How is the US controlling conflicts and countries?

You’re conflating a lot of topics in your discourse but you clearly don’t understand what you are talking about. Yes, many countries have military bases overseas. That is not controversial or new. They are used as means to expediently deploy troops and assets to various global positions. The fact that some of these countries happen to be part of NATO has nothing to do with your previous position.

What does anything you said have to do with the North Atlantic Treaty Organization?

you wanted them to attack thei allies

No, I want to see how consistent they are on the principle of genocide or if it’s only the more popular ones which give them more clout.

In your world -if you have any logical consistency- ANY country has free reign to attack ANY civilian trade vessels in international waters on behalf of a genocide happening somewhere. Stop and think about that for a second.

It just happens that the Houthis align with condemning this one particular genocide in Gaza so people like you come on and glaze for a bunch of disgusting people that are violating human rights in their own country left and right all day long but because Gaza is so hot in the news now it’s convenient to defend the Houthis actions. It’s sick and disgusting.

You want them to circumnavigate the ENTIRE CONTINENT OF AFRICA because a bunch of rebels are vying for political clout? Where were the Houthis when 100k people were being genocided right next door in Syria? Oh that’s right. That genocide doesnt matter, huh?

There you are doing the same pivot. Never defended Israel so why are you saying that? It’s not binary

it’s rather weird they decided to just continue

Yeah, it’s really weird that operators of cargo frigates have to incur really high operating costs and have to weigh the risk/benefits of rerouting along THE ENTIRE CONTINENT OF AFRICA. Hmmm. It’s like these people depend on paychecks for their living. So weird!

Also, these people have nothing to do with the ongoing conflict in Israel. They are just sailors trying to earn a living.

And before you dare say it: I’m not defending Israel. Let me repeat: NOT. DEFENDING. ISRAEL. Israel no good. Israel: BAD. IDF: BAD. Houthi?? Also bad.

They don’t care about any genocide anywhere and the fact that you’ve bought into this narrative without question is a clear indication that your are a child.
