Hamas strike on Israel - Threadbans in op - mod warning in OP updated 19/10/23

You'll be able to provide some links then.

I was going to ask you to explain some of the things I wanted you to answer but I see Weepsie has asked them.

You appear to have an a la carte approach to religion.

Are you using it just to mask other prejudices?

As I stated Israel wants the US to continue to support them and this was a deliberate act to guarantee it. Many could see it coming as Israel was losing support and out in the cold because of its genocidal actions..

It appears Israel is trying to provoke Iran with the attack in Damascus. Netanyahu is in doodoo once the war ends with his various domestic legal troubles which pre date this conflict. The use of the word war is even contentious. Aside from October 7 this is a one sided slaughter by the Israelis.

And what is your basis for the rights of all those immigrants into Palestine at that time to stay there?

Would you be equally as supportive of the rights of Ukrainians if (hypothetically) they started violence against the Irish and seized property and land around Ireland?

You didn't answer the question i asked.

Wait til he finds out that Iranians aren't Arabs………..

Biden throwing his lot firmly in with israel

US to approve $18bn sale of F-15 fighter jets to Israel - report

The Biden administration is close to approving a major new weapons sale to Israel worth more than $18bn that will include up to 50 US-made F-15 fighter jets, according to a report.

The transaction would amount to the largest US foreign military sale to Israel since the beginning of the war in Gaza, CNN reported, citing sources.

It comes as the Biden administration is also expected to notify Congress soon of a large new sale of precision-guided munitions to Israel, it said.

The sale would include up to 50 new F-15 jets, 30 Aim-120 advanced medium-range air-to-air missiles, and a number of joint direct attack munition kits, which turn dumb bombs into precision-guided weapons, Politico reported.

Since you want to make this about race; 61% of Israeli Jews are of MENA (Middle East North African) ancestry, that is, they are partly or wholly Mizrahi by blood.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mizrahi_Jews_in_Israel

They are MENA natives. As whether the Mizrahi (who mostly vote Likud) consider the Ashkenazi/Russian Jews to be "random Yanks" I suspect they'd give you a very short answer.

israel have the same divine right to exist as iran

1948 is a long time ago SeanW. You are going back to grandparents at least there. If 1% of the people who migrated to Palestine to steal lands were Irish, there'd be a significant percentage of the population of Israel with Irish ancestry. As time progresses people living in an area mix. Concentration will become lower, but the number of people with a particular "type" of ancestry will increase. So you throwing out a stat about X% of Israelis having some sort of ancestry is irrelevant.

Come back to Ireland in ~80 years and there will be a significant percentage of the population with Polish ancestry. And there will also be a significant percentage of the population with African ancestry. The "weight" of that ancestry in the individual will be less, but the percentage of people who have it will be more.

It's like the fact that a huge proportion of the population of Europe could trace their ancestry back to royalty. If you had access to the records you might find your own lines crosses with some king from the middle ages etc. After a while it becomes irrelevant to say "Person X has some Y ancestry"

The colonial influx of land grabbers and thieves in the middle of the 20th century was mainly from Europe and later the US. That they might have intermixed over time with some Jewish people from elsewhere doesn't change that.

If Russia holds onto Eastern Ukraine and the Crimea, with all their settlers pushed in there, can we come back and say in 80 years that most of the then populations of that region have some Ukrainian ancestry and therefore the settlers in 2024 were justified ………………. and that would be a slower intermixing due to the conflict.
