From the people killing them in places where Hamas has no control and building illegal settlements on their land.


[flagged]


No. The Bible says nothing about a European secular nationalist movement called Zionism. Certainly nothing positive.


Because the purpose of Tinder, Hinge, etc. is to slowly destroy the social fabric of society to a point where people are perfectly malleable. More, more, more instant gratification. Less, less, less integrity.


We live in an age where the commercialization/cheapening of sex is celebrated by society but the natural result of that commercialization/cheapening isn't wanted.

You can't have it both ways.

Our anthropology is confused and it shows.


the purpose is to make money. What you've described might be a side effect of that.


No app countibuted to destruction of social fabric more than Instagram.


I apologize for this comment not being constructive the way that HN usually prefers them to be, but...

... they're all part of the same shitpile.


Facebook, Twitter, Bluesky, et. al. sure are showing them up at the game though.


Obviously this would help immensely, but this wasn't happening in the 90s when kids would bring guns to school for show and tell. Whatever changed, the better solution is to reverse that. What do you think?


How do you reverse the Columbine massacre?


Obviously I'm talking about reversing shootings, that's not possible. I'm talking about the culture that's developed, that has led to more angry kids. Angry enough to shoot their classmates. Wouldn't reversing that culture be the ultimate solution? Banning guns only delays the symptoms of this anger.


I don’t think anyone will argue against doing both. Okay now break the modern American culture. Something something loneliness epidemic.


I must point out that Columbine was in 1999 - almost exactly midway through the 1994 "assault weapons ban".


Every shooting creates more terrified people wanting more security.


It's whataboutism because the statement also included that Israel is a terrorist state. By giving a list of attacks on Israel as a rebuttal, you are saying Israel is not a terrorist state because it's been attacked by Hamas. Do you see how silly that sounds? Since Hamas is a terrorist group for all of its viscousness, Israel must be as well, because the viciousness of Israel is more than 10 times that of Hamas.

Hamas is willing to accept the 1967 borders as Palestine.


Does Italy have a right to exist? Based on what do you answer this question?


>the way Israel is currently/always being portrayed

Israeli soldiers, politicians, and many civilians are portraying themselves this way. Soldiers post videos sniping a child in the head calling it a "legendary video", politicians say Palestinians should starve, civilians block aid trucks.

Do you resent the way they are portrayed or do you mean you resent what a lot of Israelis are doing?


Especially the politicians. Some of the things said on record in the Knesset could have been uttered in the NSDAP, if you switch Palestinian for Jew.

It’s disgusting, and most importantly not at all a matter of propaganda.


>Israel wouldn't attack Gaza if the terrorists who run that place didn't have a constitutional ambition to destroy Israel.

Really? The > 750,000 Palestinians pushed out of their homes in 1948, when "Israelis" showed up for the first time, backed up by guns, were Hamas? News to me.


History doesn't begin in 1948.


Iran did not fund ISIS.


Right, they do fund Sunni Palestinian groups, especially Hamas, but mostly they stick to Shia paramilitaries.


I'm not understanding most of this.

>the Salafi, take the Jewish legalistic idea

What is "the Jewish legalistic idea"? It's not a monolith. What makes a salafi a salafi has nothing to do with legalistic ideas.

>majority of other traditions in Islam lean towards Tafsir

This also doesn't make sense to me, as tafsir is exegesis of Quran. Salafis and all muslims care about tafsir.

The core differences between different groups of muslims, loosely in order of priority, is which sources to take from after the demise of Prophet Mohammed, and then how to interpret any sources (incl. Quran) (literally (salafis), logically (shia), etc.).

There are different tafsirs of Quran as well, and can have very stark differences. However loopholes are completely disallowed by all muslims.
