“If you were able to overlook a genocide and cast a vote for Harris, you already know how a conservative was able to overlook Trump’s extremism and vote for him.” – Historian Robin D.G. Kelley
During the brief ceasefire that started in January of this year, Yemen halted all attacks on Israel and paused its blockade on Israeli ships and those heading to Israel. Yemen has proven that if the genocide and blockade stops they will stop.
I’m curious why this got downvoted. I read the rules twice before posting to make sure I wasn’t overstepping or misstepping.
A city that had a well known car traffic problem, found an alternative solution to lane widening and the data backs it. You can take this as evidence to your city planner and convince them that grade-separated rail works and chances are, cheaper than lane-widening for your city, and can be quite transformative even in regions where car culture is dominant. It is as appropriate as a post for a “Fuck Cars” community can be, and proves the point everyone here is promoting.
The bar in Bart is cognate of bin/ben in Arabic/Hebrew. It features not just in Aramaic but also Nabatean Arabic which was heavily influenced by Aramaic.
They aren’t violently occupying yours and genociding your people . It is easy to be generous and forgiving with someone else’s.
With how racist and supremacist Israelis are, they will probably leave on their own terms like the Boers did after the end of apartheid in South Africa. The idea of coexistence and normalization has been killed many times over thanks to the genocide. I used to advocate for it, now I don’t, I personally want them gone from the region.
No it isn’t. The Frankish invaders were expelled after 200 years. The French in Algeria were expelled after 100 years. Similar problems have already been solved twice before.
Moroccan, Indian, Iranian, Syrian, Yemeni, Ethiopian and Iraqi Jews are still settlers and not indigenous to Palestine. They are invaders, you give them a part of your country and leave us out of it.
Whatever it may be, it should have never been made our problem and should have never been right in the middle of the Arab World. But there is a Christian Evangelical and European Colonial aspect to Zionism.
Zionism is based upon the myth that everyone hates Jews and that Jews can’t live among other people. I am awfully summarizing what I heard an antizionist rabbi say.
Israel and the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank have blocked elections since then. But you are right that half of Gazans weren’t even born when Hamas won the last elections.
Israel conflates them. Then again Zionism is antisemitic.
Not in many places in the US anymore, but in many other countries you still can.
Saudi Arabia for years wanted tech transfer from the US, and the US would pressure it to normalize with Israel as a prerequisite along with other “reforms” without guarantees. Now they have tech transfers with China.
One of the public reasons the UAE normalized with Israel was to get the F-35. They still don’t have it.
No, that’s nepotism. He wins elections and is popular.
If your criteria is failing to admit to genocides, then every Western “democracy” is a dictatorship, except perhaps Ireland.
He isn’t a dictator, he actually survived a military coup, and unlike his nationalist opponents he has welcomed refugees.
I just want cheap and reliable mass transit.
Stealing from corporations is the only good they done and by chance
I think British style plugs are the best despite their bulkiness. For one they are easily fixed and are designed to be so.
