Whoever agree with the "legitimate resistance" legitimates everything in this website:

I don’t think you want to play the game of who can show who did worse things.

It is Israel, 100%.

Israel has killed 20 times that number and leveled whole families and neighborhoods slaughtering tons of innocent children.

Considering how the Arab world at large never agreed with the terms of Israel's conquest, this makes sense.

Pretty sure jews around the world never agree with the war that was brought to them the moment country was formed.

No doubt about that. minus some bad details .

When you're defending beheading children as "legitimate resistance" when you should probably take a step back and take a long hard look at yourself.

And no, before idiots come along and say dumb shit.... That doesn't mean I'm defending Israel's actions either. It's possible to dislike both situations.

Show me 40 decapitated babies and I will start believing the IDF

If they had any proof of "Beheading children" they would have submitted to the International Court of Justice. but they didn't, they haven't even dared use that sentence. but here your are parroting your Zionist Hasbara Lies and defending a genocidal agenda that have been in the working for over a century

Oh look, the idiots saying dumb shit have turned up ...

I know right, the rest of us would rather you guys go home.

You know polls are utterly unscientific tea-leaf reading right?

57% sounds empirical and they even have cool little charts to go with it. Best case scenario it was: you got someone who doesn't want to talk to you to talk to you for five minutes, or you set the stage for a talkative bastard to talkative bastard at you until you can break free. Neither are particularly good windows into their actual thoughts about Thing X but furthermore all the responses usually total like 0.000028% of the population.

Lmao

Maths is unscientific now

E: To any downvoters: you are stupid.

Polling is just maths, and is very reliable so long as it's done reasonably.

By all means have reservations of this poll specifically, but to call polls in general or as a concept "unscientific tea leaf reading" is foolish. Disagreeing with that mathematical fact is exactly the same as disagreeing that 5 + 5 = 10.

Calling social studies math is an insult to math.

Polling is mathematical...

Faked polls are forces of nature now?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

When did I mention faked polls? You're just making up shit now.

You're either a troll or stupid if you don't think polling is mathematics.

Russia polled in villages that they captured that Ukrainians actually want to be annexed by Russia. Can't argue with math right?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Good strawman. I never said that polls can't have a selection bias.

I said thinking polls in general or polls as a concept are tea leaf reading is stupid. Because it is. If you believe that, you're a moron. You may as well say you disagree with the concept that 5 + 5 is 10.

I'm saying that the JERUSALEM POST posting an articles about how Arabs think negatively about israel is not reliable.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

That's not what was said...

And that isn't necessarily true either. Got any proof?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 8 months ago

It’s impossible to prove a negative

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago

Nobody hates Palestinians more than other Arabs. This was never about them, it was always about hate for Israel.
