In my opinion it does have a role. He makes interesting inferences that Jews were losing their Jewishness because they were all scattered around cut off from each other after expulsion by Romans dissolving in their respective communities they immigrated. Jews in China are said to have started eating pork but stopped doing so when contacted with Muslims. Even today Muslims in Bosnia Kosvo are quite different from rest because they are on the peripheries cut off from their co-religionists, same case with American Jews majority of whom are secular and they are marrying into non-Jews quite a lot worrying the Jewish authorities over there that they might lose their Jewishness over the generations since Judaism has a heritable angle to it. But Muzlims suddenly conquered all those parts and started categorizing Jews 'as Jews'. This is a good point. People talk about jizya tax ok but at least we know what was the historical Muzlamic mechanism of dealing with minorities under their political rule. What was the Christian, Judaism, Zoroastrianism and all other isms mechanism of dealing with minorities under their political rule historically ? do they even have a mechanism ? and were Jews and Zoroastrianism were ever in a position where they even had significant minority under their political rule historically ? like Muzlims at one point had 60% of world Christian population living under them.

If what he's saying was true that Arabs/Muslims were 'ideologically driven' to exterminate Jews. They probably would've been exterminated by now since Muslims held political power for centuries over vast regions where Jews lived. In fact historically it's quite opposite. Jews were relatively ok with Muslim rule because unlike Christian empires who saw them as 'killers of Christ' etc they didn't had any outright ideologically driven animosity with them. Sure it wasn't all nice but still better than what was happening to them elsewhere. One Jewish professor, David Wasserstein, wrote his whole thesis on this that rise of Muslims saved Jewry because they got a breathing space. Sure they demanded jizya tax but what were others offering to live under their political rule ? Rucksack raised a good point that it's easy to not go full genocidal when you are a minority. Everyone is nice until they get political power

a minority injected in to the region to destabilise the region and do the biding of the puppet master who wants regional hegemony. That's literally Israel and U.S

I agree with the general consensus in this thread. Some good stuff but steady decline after that

Reports of Syrians celebrating the alleged death of Hezbollah leader. Reminder like all foreign militias in Syria, Hezbollah is accused of commiting atrocities and particularly ethnic cleansing of Syrian Sunni populations and replacing them with their militias from elsewhere. A journalist who made several trips and saw first hand experience has written the most detailed account of it in her book. Hezbollah deny this and say they are fighting and 'clearing' ISIS types from the region, but that is what everyone involved in Syria is saying. Turkey, Iran, Assad, Israel, Russia, US so technically they should be all on the same side no ? Syrians have the luxury that they can watch all these major conflicts right now and enjoy each side taking a beating Russia in Ukraine, Iran-Hezbollah by Israel, Israel by Hamas, U.S by Houthis, Assad by U S and so on because they have been done wrong by everyone.

It is also ironic since Israel's whole reason de etra is based on victimhood and if you go really back (like Israel goes really back for its claims) then it all started because they picked a fight with Romans, lost and got expelled creating this whole situation for themselves. ^ sarcasm

This is a good point. Someone made a thread about this recently that the different departments in U.S often have different objectives and usually its 6-7 top dogs in each that determine how they act. Blinken is making so many trips around the region pretty much on his own without even informing White House at times.

I agree with this. My views have changed about this, I used to think it was because of Israeli lobby blah blah and all that the U.S acts the way it does in the Palestine and Middle East in general. Ok suppose there is no lobby how would you think U.S would act ? benevolent ? probably not, it would pretty much be the same.

Probably not it's just because of social media it feels like it

One of the main reasons Ukraine war can't go on like Afghanistan for decades like people are saying. Either this ends in next 3 years or so or other countries have to step in directly

RIP knew about him

That's because it was done inside UAE a supposed ally. And these are much bigger than assassinations, never have such attacks of this sort and scale seen before. As you also alluded in your analogy Spike might have bribed Tommy to let him poison the cookies, making more than one parties likely involved. Let's wait and see

If you and Spike have the historical relation West and Israel has then 100% you would be a suspect that you knew all along what Spike was upto but did nothing or even provided cover.

Taiwanese firm is denying they manufactured it. Product is part of their brand but manufacturing was done in Hungary by a partner according to them which is where possibly they were booby trapped.
