The discussion centers on whether the US should veto a UN resolution recognizing Palestine as a full member state, which is expected to occur on September 20. The Palestinian Authority plans to appeal to the UN General Assembly for non-member state status if the veto occurs, potentially allowing them to access international legal bodies. A successful bid could alter the Israeli-Palestinian conflict dynamics, framing it as one state violating another's rights. Concerns are raised about the implications of such recognition, including the potential loss of Palestinian rights to return and self-determination. The debate reflects broader geopolitical interests, with some arguing that a veto may serve US interests while others believe it undermines the US's moral standing.

0. Please don't call me your colleague!
1. You want me to forget my friends who will forever remain 18-20 years old?
2. You want me to forget my neighbor who was killed in terrorist attack in Netanya.
3. Daily attacks by settlers? [I guess you will never stop with lies]
The suffering you described is a dish that was prepared by yourself.

We did not go to their original countries (Poland, Morocco, Germany ...) to kill them ...

I will be banned if I continue... so I satisfy with my answers.

You are not clear at what you want to say.

Videos you posted are single nature events that don't implies on general behavior. Once public opinion ate these lies, but luckily it was long ago.

it is has become irrelevant what either party claims is true.

Oh brilliant! :rolleyes:

(Was that a quotation from George Orwell's book "1984"?)

There is a certain sort of person who believes, when talking about Israel, that the truth doesn't matter. :mad:
At the moment, there's little doubt that the 'jewish' part represses the Palestine part because of what they understand the consequences would be if they wouldn't.

(not sure why you don't say "the Israel part" :confused:)

I agree.

But there's a big difference between repression and oppression.

Repressing a people's right to nationhood (and other repressive measures such as road blocks) until they agree to stop targeting civilians, or trying to destroy or absorb a neighbouring country, is reasonable and lawful …

which is why the USA will use its veto (sorry to get back to the topic! :blushing: :biggrin:)
People are dying over there because two populations believe they are in a race for survival. (Estro admitted that)

No, Estro didn't. :frown:

Israel is always concerned about being destroyed …

as the famous quotation goes (unfortunately, not so famous that i can remember who originated it :redface:) …

"The Arabs can lose as many wars as they like, but Israel only has to lose once, and it ceases to exist."​

But no one is trying to destroy Palestine or the Palestinians: when the Palestinians agree to behave like a UN member, they will become a UN member. :smile:
… you can't blame a Palestinian for venting his opinions.

I can blame anyone for lies. I will blame anyone for racist lies. :mad:
