Middle East Conflict

[BigJoe#1]

Yep.

That's why no one's ever heard of the Armenian genocide, Kosovo War, the Rwandan genocide, The Tamil Tigers, the khmer rouge. If it's not Jews and Israel, no one wants to hear about it.

The Russians may beg to differ on that point.... but I get your drift,

You should direct the question to the neighboring brothers from Egypt and Jordan, why don't they eliminate terrorism? Israel takes care of the citizens of Gaza for livelihood, electricity and daily functioning and this is inevitable because the hatred against us as an enemy and occupier nation is rooted in their doctrine of hatred

Israel takes care of the Gazans needs whether they like it or not and they can cut it all off when they choose to. Do you think any people on earth would accept that?. They decide what can go in and what can come out. The Palestinians have no choice in the matter. It's what a total blockade is. Egypt eliminate terrorism? Egypt has kept the Muslim brotherhood in check and that really is something every Israeli should be grateful for.

Firstly, that's not what you said. You said more Muslims died at the hands of other muslims than anyone else.

Secondly, you're the one inventing a bullshit stat, the onus is on you to prove it's true, not everyone else to prove it isn't true.

If I was going to take a crack at it, I'd guess I'd start with about 250,000 muslim bodies in the ground in Iraq that were killed by mostly christian Americans.

Don’t bother, we are talking about terrorist attacks as well you know but nice try.

Look, I know you are never wrong about anything so I will leave it there.

You win, as always.

No intellegence is obtained and targets identified...

Out of interest how many intelligence led bomb strikes have there been by the Isreal's IDF since the start of the attacks on Hamas. Do you know? They said 320 last night alone I noticed.

About a million Muslims died at the hands of other Muslims in the Iran Iraq war.
Just thought I’d mention it.

But then a similar number were killed in Afghanistan by the Soviets. The 80s was a particularly bloodthirsty decade and the Arab Israeli conflict was way down the list at that time.

I think you'll find that far more Muslims have been murdered by their fellow Muslims than by Jews.

Is that because there are millions more Muslims in daily contact with each other and in neighbouring states to each than there are Jews/muslims in the same circumstances?
A bit like saying more Scotsmen have been killed by Scotsmen than have been killed by Andean Indians?

Ouch lol!

Good grief this thread goes down some dead ends now people are arguing about who has killed more Jews or Muslims, how ridiculous

The reason Israel is singled out some say unfairly is that it is held to a better standard, also because of the history of the Jewish people in general, the last thing people expect is for them to become the oppressor rather than the oppressed, also in many ways Israel is part of the West, even sharing many cultural similarities with Europe, people expect better

Regardless of the capability, the intent exists. That is the main factor.

Well, I suppose that is where I disagree with much of what is going on then ....
