Dahell is happening in Kiev

    Or both sides could stop passing on the hate and bloodlust to the younger generations


    That's all it would take really. Stop indoctrinating your children and brainwashing them from early age and this whole thing would be over by now.

    Noble but unrealistic (not that mine is any better). Point is, there's been so much bloodshed and retribution. Vengeace upon vegeance that there's no stopping it, ever!

    Bullshit, if that was true, we would still be holding grudges for the Crusades, the Colonizers, the Germans, you name it. The solution for this lies in education.


    This war has been going long enough that time should have taken care of it by now, only reason it hasn't is because the previous generation poisons the minds of the new, instead of teaching them to think for themselves and make a call.

    well it seems I'm in the right place then. lots of experts on the conflict I see lol


    Isn't that basically the british and the allies saying after WW2 : Alright guys we don't need the colony we conquered during WW1 on the arabs, since there is a lot of jewish migrants who had to flee from europe because of the persecutions and believed the zionist nationalism that's where they need to be (but then if you are persecuted at home what would you do), we will slice the cake and now you guys sort this out together, try to be nice to each other and live in harmony, because that's not our problem anymore.


    Sentura derailed the thread with class

    Let's just be clear here: Israel breaks numerous conventions by literally INVADING another country, not to mention the illegal settlements. I can agree to a lot, but shell bombing civilian land in a carpet bomb like fashion to flush out terrorists isn't right or just. Zionism on top of this is just terrorism legalized. Imagine any other country have such pure zeal for its country while openly discriminating against another. They get away with it because of the huge pro Israeli lobby in the US, and the US generally not giving a fuck about conventions.


    Also, if you think it's equal:

    PS: KT stop being biased.

    Any evidence for "shell bombing civilian land in a carpet bomb like fashion" because I have seen nothing to suggest they are doing that at all.

    gonna let it slide this time fellas, life is too short! but srsly Sentura, you're blowing shit out of your ass again. it's funny how many dumb shits feel entitled to having an opinion on things they don't know shit about lol.


    also, the plane that got shot down above Ukraine has been really heavy news here in the Netherlands. streets were buzzing with people talking about it (I mean literally) and flags were hanging half mast everywhere. sad stuff man. because the majority of the victims were Dutch, I don't expect any political retaliation which kind of makes it worse for me

    You make it sound so simple dude. I'm not arguing that you don't have a point. Most of us here still hate the Germans and that's 70 years ago. Mostly due to the older generations telling us the horrors of the Nazi's, so yeah, you are absolutely right about that. I'm just saying it's unrealistic to expect that to happen. Those people hate each other, it's been going on for a long time, by now no one came out of it unscathed. It's not like people are magically going to start and turn the other cheek. Not while this still happens on a day to day basis. The only reason why our hatred for the Germans slowly vanished is because there hasn't been any trouble since. Only then will the wounds heal and the scars become less apparent each year. Same goes for your other examples. None of it was fixed by education. All of it slowly faded because it stopped happening and you make it sound like all is good, which isn't so. There's still hatred for a lot of those things everywhere.


    So again, I like the way you think and I truly wish that they could do what you propose, but it's still unrealistic and my point (not about nuking but about yours being unrealistic) certainly isn't bullshit (whether you agree with it or not).

    What a liar!


    Why? I haven't said a word about the Ukraine. I didn't even respond to KT his post and he's a fellow Dutchee. Sentura went off topic and I replied to that. Different discussion mate

    Sorry I know we're offtopic, but I can't ignore complete bullshit...

    Uhhh... what country? Palestine is not a country nor has it ever been.

    not to mention the illegal settlements.


    It's debatable on the legal status of the properties, all sorts of facts contradict each other and the UN sure as hell isn't neutral in this situation, hasn't been for a long time.

    There have been around 4000 airstrikes on Gaza, if Israel was "carpet bombing" civilian areas deliberately, there would be somewhere around 5000+ people dead. IDF phones people, texts, drops leaflets and intitiates the knock on roof effect to give a 15 minute warning for people to leave. Hamas on the other hand doesn't give any warnings about attacks, it hides weapons and terrorists inside schools, mosques, hospitals and civilian homes. These are facts, not propaganda.. the evidence is everywhere to be seen. Look where rockets are coming from in these photos;

    Furthermore every time Hamas fires a rocket into civilian areas like Tel Aviv, they are commiting a war crime. Hamas couldn't care less about Palestinian people, every death that they suffer is another way to carry on brainwashing the masses into believing everything is down to Israel. Every death that occurs in the IDF operation is down to Hamas, not Israel.

    Do you even know what Zionism is? You obviously don't know what terrorism is. Hamas are the terrorists as are ISIS, RIRA, ETA, Hezbollah etc Israel comes nowhere near.

    Imagine any other country not defending itself against attacks on it's people... If Denmark was being fired with rockets everyday, would you be against action of the Danish army to respond? The only reason only one Israeli has died thus far is because of the Iron Dome SAM system, without it, people would be dying daily as they have in the past. Every single day, there are sirens sounding and people are running for cover, would you tolerate that?


    Quote

    Also, if you think it's equal:


    ..and in those operations, what lead to Israel launching attacks? Hamas... again. After Pillar Of Cloud, there were about 3 days of a ceasefire before rockets started being fired from Gaza again, of course no one reported on it because Israel didn't respond to it. Let me also point out that after Israel ended their occupation of Gaza in 2009, the Palestinians had a chance to build their own state proper and prosper, instead they were once again brainwashed by Hamas into believing that they can have all of historical "Palestine" and eliminate the jews and thus we end up where we are today. At this rate, Israel will take control of Gaza again, nevermind end the blockade (which is necessary otherwise there would be all sorts of ships carrying weapons into port to supply Hamas with more ways to commit terror).


    tldr version: Israel cannot make peace with Gaza so long as a terrorist entity which wants it's destruction remains in power.

    Just walk in and steamroll Hamas? Walk in and lolroll Isis? They were more than happy to do it before in 2004 with Sadda- Ohhh... there's no oil. Nevermind.

    Now I'm going to give you something to complain about Dux:


    I'm at work today. But a colleague is missing. A good colleague, someone I really like and who I've worked with for 8 years. So I ask what's up? Apparently she has gotten special leave. She was working last Thursday when she just came back from a couple of days off due to her favorite cousin's wedding. They are Hindus so those weddings take some time. Anyway, her cousin left for his honeymoon the day she got back to work. She received a message that afternoon that it was her cousins plane that was shot down. She broke down right there, the whole department in tears and she was brought home in shock.


    In the mean while we have a prime minister who doesn't have the balls to take action while the bodies are being toyed with and thrown in trucks. My blood is boiling.

    Wellicht moeten we blij zijn dat we in ieder geval Rutte hebben, hoe krom dat ook klinkt, want als Harry Potter er nog had gezeten dan hadden we waarschijnlijk nog onze excuses aangeboden dat we daar vlogen.
