Israel vs. Palestine vs. Big Black Cocks (plus a quick lesson on black history!)

Bibi Netanyahu seems to want to show Obama that he won't be intimidated. 

This is breaking just now.  CNN still only has the headline...I'll post links as more info becomes available.

Thirteen Israeli air strikes hit Gaza Strip

Israeli warplanes have carried out at least 13 air strikes on the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip, Palestinian sources have told the BBC.

There were no immediate reports of casualties.

Four of the strikes took place near the town of Khan Younis, where two Israeli soldiers were killed in clashes with Palestinian fighters last week.

The Israeli strikes are the most serious for more than a year, says the BBC's Jon Donnison from Jerusalem.

'Retaliation'

Palestinian news agencies reported that Israeli aircraft dropped leaflets over parts of Gaza on Thursday warning residents of retaliation for last Friday's killings of the soldiers in Khan Younis.

They were the first Israeli soldiers to be killed in hostile fire in Gaza in over a year. The military wing of Hamas claim responsibility for those attacks.

Hamas said police stations and training facilities were among the targets of Israel's overnight raids.

Tensions in the region are running high after a recent Israeli government announcement of plans to build 1,600 new homes for Jewish people in East Jerusalem, which the Palestinians want as a capital of a future state.

Militants in the Gaza Strip have recently stepped up rocket fire directed at Israel.

On Wednesday, they fired a rocket into an empty field in southern Israel, but there were no reports of casualties or damage, military sources said.

wtf

When I click on US section of cnn.com's world news I get "condemned sorcerer". Only if I click on international CNN do I get this info.

1. Israel announces plans to build 1,600 new homes in Jerusalem.

2. This pisses off the militant wing of Hamas so they try to set us up the bomb but are spotted by Israeli soldiers.  2 soldiers end up getting killed.

3. Israeli jets perform air strikes over Gaza.

I guess I'm just a filthy anti-Semite but any way you parse it, Israel is the one who set all this bullshit off in the first place.

WHY DO YOU PEOPLE HATE JEWS

[Brehvolution]

Religion

[brawndolicious]

I don't really give a fuck about the religious/cultural issues here, but for practical reasons, I kinda feel like the Palestinians should just give up on Jerusalem. Trying to set up part of the city that Jews identify with as their cultural center as a Palestinian capital just isn't going to work and is only going to cause prolonged violence.

This isn't about Jerusalem.  It's about Netanyahu's proposed new settlements that Obama disapproved of.

[Ichirou]

Said new settlements are illegal, but the idea is to very slowly take over Jerusalem and divide and weaken all the Palestinian districts in the city.

just relocate the Palestinians in Wyoming, problem solved

[Ichirou]

Move the Palestinians to Detroit, I hear there's a lot of properties for sale there.  You can buy a home for like five bucks, seriously.

Hell, they'd have plenty of family members in Dearborn, Michigan

The mayor of Detroit was just talking about turning many of Detroit's empty acres of nothingness into urban farms to create jobs and tax revenue. Adding Palestinians would speed things up considerably and make Michigan one of the most successful states in the nation.

Not too late to run for governor of Michigan. Who wants to be my ltd. gov?

*head explodes*

[Himu]

I said that I don't give a fuck.

But I'm pretty damn sure that everyone in the region does give a fuck.

He rolled his eyes because you have two contradictions in that post. You say you don't give a shit about religion or cultural issues but clearly identify the problem, as seen later in the post, and not only that, but make an opinion based on the given information which is far beyond "not giving a shit".

[Himu]

I think he's just busting your balls.

[Madrun Badrun]

far greater numbers eh?

[etiolate]

Jerusalem is Israel's now. It has changed hands over the years. I am not sure why that's the concentration of the talk here.

First thing would be to stop blowing Khan Younis into smithereens over and over, and allow for actual growth, but it could be that the Israeli state doesn't want growth by Palestenians. If so, stop funding Israel. Why won't the US stop funding Israel? More than silly anti-semite accusations, it is likely because it is a potential friendly military base for US interests.

But Obama's regime has made comments as to no longer being a part of messing with other country's affairs for its own global power interests. Giving Israel more than a verbal slap might work well with Iran. So, that may be reasons it does happen.

Am I doing this right?

Because with politics, you know things won't happen simply because they must happen.

[Human Snorenado]

Also, please keep this civil, even if you disagree with me. I'm sick of this useless bickering.

Say fewer stupid things.  Shouldn't be hard for someone with a 160 iq.

it seems the EB version might be


You say our wives are pigs
But we wouldn't fuck pigs
and you won't fuck pigs
But do you see her over there?
The girl that looks like Dee Snider
I think she's spry
so slip on your jimmy
squeeze the KY
And get ready to ride her

For we have had sex
and you only can fap
so lets get together
to find out "It's a trap"
and dance

What's with all the catfights lately

[Smooth Groove]

Maybe if you fucking losers like PD and Ichi would get laid, you'd know wtf Green Shinobi is talking about. 

[Mandark]

Green Shinobi tells a bunch of foreigners to give up their aspirations of fully enfranchised residency, and just live somewhere else.

A very successful approach to international politics with many practical applications, I'm sure.

I honestly think the only person here who does is GS himself.

[Ichirou]

I agree.  Far too important for flippant remarks by someone who has declared he doesn't even care about the underlying roots of the conflict.

[Human Snorenado]

It's so important, I'm sure we're going to figure out a way to settle it.  We've got a guy with a 160 IQ in the thread, after all.  I'm sure no one thought of grabbing someone like that to take to a session of peace talks.

"So hey guys, just let the Israelis take over Jerusalem and then you Palestinian dudes just move somewhere else...like Michigan."

The next day the headlines will blare
"PEACE IN OUR TIME!!!"

Is it too late to bus all the black people back to Africa?

[Ichirou]

Is it too late to bus all the black people back to Africa?

That kinda sorta happened, it's called Liberia.

[The Fake Shemp]

No, I mean all of them. White people are the majority in America, black people need to give up their aspirations - starting with that Kenyan in the White House!

[Ichirou]

I hear he's a...secret Muslim.

No wonder them poor Israelis had to have their jets attack Gaza; there's a traitor in the White House!

[The Fake Shemp]

Are blacks and whites bombing the fuck out of each other in America? Is the situation even remotely the same?

You're right, my Green Shinobi™ Proposal for Removing All Black People and Shipping Them Back to Africa would have only been relevant fifty years ago. It's a shame that the government didn't take that course of action. :'(

[Ichirou]

We could've said it was for their own safety so they wouldn't have to suffer under Jim Crow.  Now it's too late.

[Mandark]

Just occurred to me that Green Shinobi is suggesting that this conflict could be solved if only one side would say "Hey, this constant, pointless conflict is getting us nowhere and we'd be better off just walking away and not caring so damn much, rather than miring ourselves further in an endless cycle of recriminations and bitterness."

[etiolate]

Hrm, there were splits in the black community on identity. There were those that wanted to emigrate, some looking squarely at what happened in the Carribeans and going there. There was also heavy communist recruitment of blacks as displaced people. Parts of the Muslim community wanted to established their own black nation within the country.

[Ichirou]

Have you ever heard of black nationalism, Green Shinobi?  You're a literature major so I thought you would know about that from at least a cultural perspective if not a political one.

[etiolate]

yeah

Read your James Baldwin bro?

[Ichirou]

Yes, because Malcolm X was a fringe figure.

[Ichirou]

I would actually say Palestine is more open to compromise than Israel at this point.  The peace process will go nowhere while Netanyahoo is in charge.

Jesus fucking Christ in pink panties, now we're on black nationalism?

Why not just let both sides fight to the death?  They both believe in a better afterlife anyway.
