We had a chance of peace with Rabin, but Palestinians would not accept that Israel has much a right to exist as any surrounding Arab country.
Now we have fools supporting terrorists who would gladly kill those same supporters. Fools that refuse to accept that neither side is completely honest yet also that neither side is completely dishonest.
We have people that have no understanding of military weapons and tactics telling us that certain things are happening which are probably not the case.
With all this talk of apartheid and genocide, tell me, Where are Algeria’s Jews? Syria’s? Egypt’s?

What the fuck are you… A Zionist terrorist fucking murdered Rabin for daring to go through with peace you piece of shit. Then another Zionist came and called the whole thing off.
Hey come on, address his/her points without escalating. Yes, a Zionist did assassinate him, but that’s besides the point. This thread was going pretty well overall. We’re actually hearing other perspectives for once.
Wait. I’m confused, so please educate me. Rabin was not in favor of a peace deal? Is that your stance? What exactly are you saying is misinformation. Can you be specific?
No no. Rabin was in favor of peace. The misinformation is the attempt at shifting the blame from the Israeli right that literally called for Rabin’s assassination to Palestinian (admittedly misguided) armed resistance, with no mention of the former. Like yes I won’t deny that Hamas and other organizations objecting to peace and ramping up their activities was fucking stupid, but pretending that the deal fell through because of that and not because the Israeli right couldn’t let go of their Manifest Destiny is a pipe dream. And the thing is: It’s a pipe dream nobody would seriously believe, or—in other words—a dog whistle.
This might strike you as dismissive, but the thing is: Attempting at shifting all blame for failure of negotiations to Palestinians (at a time when the largest Palestinian organization, the PLO, specifically disavowed violence and recognized Israel, no less) is a common Israeli tactic to make it look like there’s no other way for poor poor Israel to defend themselves. So is pretending camp David 2000 (or worse, the US-led 2014 initiative) was a serious Israeli attempt at peace and blaming its failure on Palestinians. You learn to recognize these things, because they’re ideas nobody who’s discussing the conflict in good faith, and as educated as they imply they are, will actually believe.
Ok thanks for the clarification. I’m going to check out of this thread because the downvote brigade is here and I’m tired. It was interesting until a few minutes ago when that started and once again proving the limitations of discourse on Lemmy. I’m tired of this platform.

There’s no point to be addressed.
Is misinformation, plain and simple. I can see the mental gymnastics they went through to get to this point, but just… no.
