Palestine

[Leonardo17]

   If Israel is the more secular / westernized element here, I don’t think it’s seeing the bigger picture. Is it possible for a country to stand all on its own (even with US support) in a place where all its neighbors are F-up countries with authoritarian governments?

   That’s the biggest error of Israel. It wanted to weaken the Palestinian independence movement by promoting Hamas.
 
   Also, I am not scapegoating anyone here. But the rise of political Islam (beginning in the 90’s) was also designed to weaken Soviet influence etc. The problem now is that you have almost no serious government in the Middle-East anymore.
 
   So how can any country stand all by itself in a place like that?
 
   Also: Israel did invade Lebanon in 2006. What Happened to Hezbollah? – It’s 10 times stronger now.

   Final remark: in the 2010’s there were these videos which I found on Youtube. The fact is, the majority of both sides of the conflicts do not want conflict anymore. But minorities in both sides of the conflict are true haters of the other side and will do anything to create more conflict. See these images:

And that’s not why I came here at all. I wanted to draw your attention to disinformation techniques that are being employed by Hamas.
 
It’s strange how nobody cares how untrue these images are and the more these are violent and untrue the more these images are circulating on Social Media.
 
If I was Elon Musk, I would simply block all AI generated content. This is getting more and more serious everyday:
