Pretty much. My wife and I were at brunch with a friend yesterday, we were talking about the news, and Israel/Hamas came up. Friend's comment was, "I know I'm way oversimplifying this issue, but when my daughters fought over a toy, or a dress, or whatever, I didn't try to pick sides. I simply took the object away from both of them."

So I concur with nuking the entire Levant from orbit. They can fight over who gets the remaining ashes and the giant cockroaches in 500 years after the Geiger counters stop furiously click-clicketying away.

I was just having this discussion with someone the other day. Wasn’t it king Solomon who said let’s divide the baby?
Turn the entire place into Chernobyl. And no, I’m not saying kill then all.

If you’re not saying kill them all, where are they going to go? It appears that the rest of the world doesn’t want either of them.

Is anyone else's reaction to all of thus just resignation? I'm not trying to pretend things were perfect in that area before this, but we had at least gone like two decades without a huge blowup (though certainly some moderate ones). And now we just added 50 years to the clock on whenever this whole thing will be resolved. Not to pretend we were close anyways, but wherever we were, this pushed it back further, and certainly out of my lifetime.

The solution is a Palestinian Gandhi. The only way to stop the killing is non-violence, as it is the only way to detoxify both the Palestinians and then, eventually, the Israelis.

Ironically, that’s what Clancy does in The Sum Of All Fears.

It doesn't matter whether you are right (which your are). Hamas (but not you) understood the two word mantra all Jews have had since the Holocaust -- Never Again. Once they kicked that feeling into the Israelis, they knew all right and wrong thinking was going to leave Israel. Israel was going to live by the Never Again mantra, no matter what ethics and morality they had to throw to the curb to do it. Just look at all the Jews around the world traveling to Israel to help fight this war. These are normal Jews who could have continued living a safe life wherever they were. They are not the government. They are not making the military decisions. Yet, they know exactly what they are getting into and are flying to Israel to fight this brutal war. Because ... Never Again.

In Paris, Jewish schools are being evacuated following bomb threats.
In London, antisemitic hate crimes

In Sydney, a crowd chanted
g^s the J00z.

In Dagestan, a mob hunted down Jews at an airport.

In Turkey, businesses have closed their doors to Jews.

At Cornell, anonymous posts called for the r^pe and m^rder of Jews.

Do you believe us now?

I saw video of a kid in Harvard Square saying all the dirty Israelis (then Jews) should be lined up and killed. It's spreading like wildfire. And why?

My SO never got Jewish paranoia over this...she does now. Even scarier, she admits that if she was a young college student she would be saying much the same stuff because to the uneducated on the situation it looks like David vs. Goliath...those bastard Western Backed Israelis stealing the land and rights of the poor unfortunate Palestinians. The ends justifying the means...

Death and war is stupid...and youth is wasted on the young. And hate is a waste of time an be every.

And I think you know who I mean when I am talking about people tripping over their dicks is not people like you...unless you are walking around ripping down the flyers of the hostages (you know, the ones still being held which started all of this taken during an unprovoked terrorist attack) burning Israeli Flags (or putting swastikas on them along with buildings) and saying Israelis deserve this and should be pushed into the sea. And yes those are things I have seen since all of this started.

And Hamas is the government in control of Gaza...as long as that is the case I hope we don't take anything they say seriously. Their leaders are still saying they did not kill any civilians...cause the IDF has lots of children and elderly members. Unless it is independently verified I would trust them as much as I trust The Taliban or the Saudis.

I hate what Israel is doing...every friggin minute of it and 100% want a ceasefire. But they didnt start this and Hamas could end this but don't want to because they wanted this from the beginning. Listening to how people are starting to ignore the precipitating factor of all this and ignoring phucking history pretending Israel somehow stole Palestine from the Palestinians and that this justifies all the violence since 1948. Maybe we should make a Tik Tock so they could learn about who screwed all this up.

And I know im being a dick...I am very raw over this but it's disconcerting to know that if say Ireland attacked Britain and took a bunch of hostages and killed others the reactions would not be the same. Sure we would want a ceasefire but no one at Tulane would be dressed up as the IRA burning The Union Jack in front of British students and wishing them death. And that is why we are conditioned to be prepared for everyone to turn on us...this was predictable for Jews my age and older.

(Sorry...I am just done with this. I have zero issue with you and agree with you for the most part)

I feel for you too, Handy. Stay safe.
 
My cousin was a Rabbi in NoDak...that didn't last long. My grandfather was a Rabbi in Iowa...man would he hate Iowa now.
 
Putin has declared that the sale of Alaska to the United States in 1867 by Emperor Alexander is null and void.

I'm sure the modern GOP will just shrug their shoulders and let Cheeto Mussolini give back the land if he's re-elected.
