You might have gathered from previous posts, I have never claimed Jews to be saints, that they never could do any thing wrong. There are settlement conflicts and some Israeli people that have used violence. That is not the whole of Israel. It is not Israel the requires the Palestine controlled Bethlehem region to require security walls and Jews are banned from entering. Israel left Gaza to manage itself and Jews could not reside there. In summary, yeah, some Jews are bad actors when the vast majority are good. It is direct opposite with Palestinians where almost all want Jews eliminated.
Did you read what I posted? I never claimed it was great that it happens. You do reach pretty low to justify your position. Compare the available examples of school room material between Gaza and Israel. Then consider there are Palestine people living and going to school in Israel. So yeah, the Jewish children are getting a better message of humanity. There is only one side “indiscriminately attacking and killing the other side’s children.” It is not Israel. They do their best to surgically strike where Palestinian Hamas are Intentionally opposite. They even released their own videos proudly proclaiming the horrors they committed last October 7th.
It is horrible to say this, but you are wrong. The propaganda they have going does teach their children to hate Jews from a very young age. I have seen some examples of their kids shows and school programs. It is despicable and the blame lies directly on the adults. That does not change the hate that is fostered from a very young age. This does not justify killing the children, only to correct your error that children don’t support Hamas. That said, From all I read Israel does their best by warning the area prior to an attack. The only thing they could do would be to ignore and let Hamas attack and not respond at all. While Israel doesn’t sport a halo, they are doing more than most any other country would do to be humane.
I don’t know of anyone that wants to see civilians killed. Giving the protesters credit is to ignore their own misguided position. When the civilians in Gaza are Palestinians, that according to their own words, support Hamas, the organization that knowingly and willingly puts them in harms way, at what point do they lose their “innocence”.
I love it! I can’t wait to see the Gocomics leftist rationalize and defend this. It’s too early for popcorn but the show should be entertaining. Who’s gonna do the encore tossing in some random Trump is responsible…?
Everyone preaches not to text and drive yet many still do. What is your point? You cannot stop people from doing bad stuff. However, you can allow people to openly discuss any topic and let the open air expose the debate. Hydroxychloroquine was mocked and belittled as a pandemic treatment. Social media blocked proponents and barred any mature discussion and we now know that was total BS. While it does have risk of side effects(What drug on the market doesn’t have 50 pages of disclaimers) There is solid evidence that it does have significant results against Pandemic virus. So yeah, when others claim to know when it is appropriate to shut down free speech I call them liars and unfit to have opinions.
You did not touch any nerve with me. I simply don’t know where you are going with that. I am not Catholic and strongly feel that much of what they do is wrong. From their theology, rituals, and papal veneration, they get so much wrong.
Your view of the landscape is biased, so much seems to be against the rich and powerful. The scriptures lay out the cases when death is called for and that is used for the foundation of our judicial system. Your statements in this part are so vague that it is difficult to even address it adequately. I’ll say this; What should be done with child molesters? I’m not talking about the 19-year-old that has dated a girl a bit younger, I mean the guy that targets an obvious child. What do think Jesus would want? He clearly states that if someone harms a little child it would be better that they had a mill stone around their neck and tossed into the sea. So, yeah, there are cases where the consequences get real.
That is an oversimplified view of liberalism… education and justice are also required.” All the things you mention are subjective and subject to whims of the moment. Hard drugs used to be illegal and bad. Now cities like San Francisco decide it should be legal and see the results there? This is the result of liberal “learn and adapt”?Curious about what your Master’s concentration is. Studying the Just War Concept and finding it wicked? In many aspects? While not my life’s study, I understand it to limit or restrain war. But the scriptural aspect is that humans are so valuable in the eyes of God that to murder calls for the stiffest of penalties. You are dishonest “…to being person A killing person B because person C said so” The rules are not that arbitrary and if you’ve studied as much as you claim then you should know better so I can only assume your intentionally misleading.
Cool you have one mis-speak compared to the mountain of Biden dementia driven gaffs.
