Louis Theroux: The Settlers (2025)

Are you actually able to read? What am I ‘hemming and hawing’ about? I’ve not supported either side, I’ve not tried to justify either side, as you appear to be doing so. I’ve just said that Hamas should of expected Israel to retaliate in some way when they were planning their initial attack. I don’t understand why you refuse, or can’t work out how. to acknowledge that basic concept.
A couple walking down the road holding guns. A criminal jumps out and shoots one. Remaining person from the couple then shoots the criminal dead. Neither are ‘in the right’ and at no point have I said anyone is, as they’ve both shot someone. You seem to blind to the self evident fact that the criminal should of expected to get shot at in return. Understanding rational logic isn’t spineless. Being unwilling or unable to acknowledge and accept A +B =C and that ‘committing the initial terrorist was a bad thing to the point that you just insult people is a MUCH better example of being spineless and proof that you know your argument is either way of the mark or utterly indefensible.

Reading comments about this TV Special leaves me wondering:

Why the nescient analogies?

It only took me twenty minutes to learn about The Legacy of the Rothschild Family, and how only fifteen percent of the land in Israel had been purchased before the Nakba (Nakba Day coming up May 15, https://www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/JVP-Nakba-Fact-Sheet.pdf ).

“Israel Knew Hamas’s Attack Plan More Than a Year Ago,” https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/30/world/middleeast/israel-hamas-attack-intelligence.html ). Israeli newspaper obtained government documents showing they knew about the planned attack, prevented IDF troops and citizens from publicizing it and withdrew forces from the area right before it happened.

Hamas knew WE were getting countries to normalize relations with Israel, and that once that happened any hope of a two state solution was never gonna happen. So, they HAD to poke the bear, knowing Israel’s response would be over-the-top, to force Arab countries to stop the process of normalizing relations. And, it worked.

But, apparently they didn’t factor in the fact that, while there are laws here meant to prevent tax payer money from funding countries committing war crimes, there’s also sooo much in campaign contributions that there’re now laws forcing POTUS, Congress and many State’s contractors to pledge allegiance to Israel (no President since H.W. Bush has really stood up to Israel in any meaningful way).

It took Oct 7th, and my government telling me not to do my own research, to get me to read for twenty minutes about how the State of Israel was created, another ten minutes to read about how racists agreed Jews don’t belong here (US or Europe) and should all go over there, and dribs and drabs since then (Israel has occupied Palestinian territories longer than Russia occupied Eastern Europe. And, people have the Right to fight back against an occupying force.) The only terrorists are US, the USA, and the Zionists. Racism is the hate that feels so good, and, we have to root out those dopamine pathways. Listen to Tucker Carlson’s interview with a Christian Pastor in Bethlehem to understand more about how we’re funding killers and extremists for the wrong reasons.
