Gaza-Israel Conflict | October 2023

Water under the bridge!
Can't turn back the clock, or get bit in the same hole twice...

PLO for the longest time under Arafat sought a secular Palestinian state, something that looked, felt and behaved like... he assumed all his interlocutors as honest brokers or at the very least gave them benefit of the doubt... was perhaps to be a home of all Palestinians Muslims and Christians.

Guess what? Those who're left don't want to leave and those who've arrived want to occupy with an equal zeal. You can distract with, let's make another deal... but if you were honest you'd know... Palestinians unlike their zionist counterparts have no superpower backing them, providing military and financial aid and when needed moving full battle groups to the theater to counter any intervention on behalf of Palestinians.
This is the reality... let Isreal prevail on the backs of American might so the text books could say so...
Thank you for your response.

Many Americans are well aware we need to remove our Zionist Occupied Government. But,

There will be no revolution here, America will need to collapse.

Wish it would be otherwise.

Can you please tell me based on bold part what is real population of Muslim assuming people who do forbidden acts prohibited by Islam are not Muslims. Because I keep hearing real muslims don’t do that. Do those people still count as muslim? If answer is yes than is it islamophobic? Also people who do violent things by proclaiming muslim or use Quran or Hadith to justify crimes they commit what should we say? It is not easy to disassociate religion if crime is committed in name or basis of religion (even though it could be wrong interpretation).

You are misapplying the No True Scotsman fallacy.

No True Scotsman states that a person who is truly Scottish would not do a bad act. But Scottish people can do such a thing and yet they are still Scottish. Thus the fallacy.

Rules of Islam are completely different. Rules of Islam are just that, rules in a book. Rules are not a person. A person's actions do not change the rules from Quran or Hadith. If someone hates Islam because of X, Y, and Z it has to be because of the rules themselves. If someone wants to disagree with Islam they have to show the rules and regulations they disagree with. A Muslim's behavior is irrelevant to any discussion about Islamophobia unless that action is consistent with the rules of Islam.

This is why Islamophobia is a legitimate term. People say X, Y, and Z about Islam when it is clearly not true.

Example: A cricket player smashes an opposing team member with the bat. This is against the rules of the game. If someone hates cricket because they say people can hit each other with bats then this would make someone crickettphobic, because their fear of getting hit with a bat is not part of the rules.

If someone hates cricket because the game has 3 pins instead of 6 then that would not be phobic because that is based on the rules of the game.

Now, it will be interesting to see if his call gets any response or gets ignored. If it gets ignored, we are in for some terrible times.

Israel will not stop levelling Gaza with or without prisoners. It makes no difference if they are released. I was hoping Biden would say Israel needs to release Palestinian prisoners but his dementia meds must be supplied by Israel.

This Lebanese political analyst is of the opinion that Gaza and is resistance falling would mean end of the Palestinian cause as well as Israel focusing on Lebanon and going to attack it as well in the near future.

He suggests Nasrallah's speech was intended for Friday to give room for negotiations and ceasefire and if there isn't progress/framework towards, it will force Hezbollah's hands to enter a open confrontation. He is a analyst so we don't know what exactly will happen but it's a interesting watch, nevertheless.

US is the sole Super Power of the world in true sense.
You attack any American ally and you will have Americans fighting with their whole might against you.
Russia,China and India have very little true-alliance building behaviour.They are mostly business oriented dealers.
They will never be able to compete US when it comes to building alliances.
And alliance is what that builds a solid block to set a world order.

China despite its military might is afraid to come out of its shell and build alliance with anti-US countries and challenge the US hegemony.
Russia is simply exhausted now.
India's approach is always careful.
They will never take risk
Typical Subcontinental behaviour.

Chinese are old buddies thanks to their one child Policy.they can't expend their men to build their influence on the world.
Russia is a giant gas station owned by oligarchs.

Russia military innovation has been close to zero post Cold War.

Russian military industrial base has been declining slowly

Educated Russians have been migrating. The population is stagnant.

we find India-Russia-Tehran combined power increased consistently since 1990 :-)

'How come Arab leaders are not visiting Gaza?'

But they can visit West Bank (or even Israel, if Israel agrees)
You’ve answered your own question.
Israel controls entry into West Bank and Gaza for all foreigners… so there you are.
