[@garethaustin3137]

Your point is valid. America removed the Taliban from power without much trouble, so why did they fail to defeat them in the end? I believe that if the US had concentrated on Afghanistan, on building the Ring Road and consolidating regime change, it could have been a great success. But the US has a huge military, with a huge appetite for novelty and fresh victories, and they went off to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, instead of doing the hard, dull work of modernising Afghanistan. But at least there were plenty of Afghans who welcomed American occupation, as long as it kept the Taliban out (a misplaced trust in the end). In Gaza, I'm not convinced the Palestinians will thank Israel for removing Hamas.

[@oliverc1961]

It has. Antizionists seem to believe that the Jews who fled to Palestine to escape the Nazi terror in Europe, at a time when Australia, for instance, was only admitting an average of 630 Jews a year and the US was taking in about 2000, should have stayed put and died. They seem to believe the 45 per cent of Israeli Jews who are indigenous to what was once known as Palestine or to the Middle East and North Africa more generally should "return" to Baghdad, Cairo and Tripoli, where they or their ancestors were persecuted. In the alternative, antizionists accept that Israeli Jews have good reason to be there but think Israel shouldn't be allowed to defend itself and shouldn't have the secure borders it needs if it's to remain a secure democracy for a majority-Jewish population. This sort of antizionist never complains that India and Pakistan both have secure borders and don't grant visas to citizens of the other country.

[@raphstang5383]

Two things stand out for me that make all the difference in how this war must be perceived by any honest, rational human being: 1. The civilian casualty rates (yes, civilians dying is horrible and war is horrible, but we live in the real world here), given a scenario of human shielding and Hamas’s desire to martyr as many Gazans as possible, are extremely proportional. Fair figures might estimate a roughly 2:1 civilian:terrorist ratio, or even lower, and this demonstrates the precision and restraint Israel has shown. 2. The idea about protracting a conflict making it worse for civilians overall is spot on and has been proven multiple times over previous conflicts. The issue is that humans would rather take a larger quantity of death and destruction in low instalments rather than a smaller quantity all at once. This phenomenon was witnessed in the Bosnia war in the Yugoslavian civil war. The conflict was protracted, humanitarian aid flooded in and fell into the wrong hands (as it has in Gaza), and this resupplied those responsible for continuing the conflict. This is the problem with Humanitarian NGOs scrapping to flood aid into Gaza from the onset. A war only ends when the conditions of war become so bad for one side that they must give up. If you slow down the conflict and keep the aid flowing, you keep the fighters and the population at a state of subsistence that incentivises them to continue. Many people can’t get their heads round this, and probably would call me immoral for saying it, but the fact is that this approach causes less long-term suffering, and in my opinion it is the deeply moral approach. That is not to say sometimes aid isn’t important, but it should be targeted. Of course there are times that it is morally imperative to intervene, however for the most part it is better and kinder to allow wars to reach their natural conclusion, especially in a war like this, where any decent human being would support Israel’s aims to destroy Hamas.

To think there is an endgame in the middle east shows a lack of understanding of the middle east.

[@MarcusCorbett]

Bertrand Russell in 1970 a few days before he died wrote: For over 20 years Israel has expanded by force of arms. After every stage in this expansion Israel has appealed to “reason” and has suggested “negotiations”. 'This is the traditional role of the imperial power, because it wishes to consolidate with the least difficulty what it has already taken by violence. Every new conquest becomes the new basis of the proposed negotiation from strength, which ignores the injustice of the previous aggression. 'The aggression committed by Israel must be condemned, not only because no state has the right to annex foreign territory, but because every expansion is an experiment to discover how much more aggression the world will tolerate.'

If he really said this then we have another proof that intellectual people can be fools too.

[@oliverc1961]

You can't see the obvious: Israel is tiny and very vulnerable. Across a vast swath of territory, from Bangladesh and Pakistan in the east to Turkey in the north, Sudan in the south, and Morocco and Algeria in the west, a succession of illiberal, autocratic, homophobic and misogynistic regimes with no belief in the right of free expression want Israel not to exist. Its staggeringly expensive Iron Dome technology can protect it from a limited attack by relatively slow-moving missiles fired from Iranian territory but not from many thousands of rockets and drones fired from immediately adjacent territory. Bertrand Russell wasn't so entirely silly that he didn't know the reason Britain didn't fall, as France, Belgium and the Netherlands fell, is that it had the Channel to protect it. Plus, too, Britain is 11 times the size of Israel.

Complete rubbish from one of the most elevated organs of the far right. For context consider this excerpt on Wikipedia on the Spectator: "Editorship of the magazine has often been a step on the ladder to high office in the Conservative Party in the United Kingdom. Past editors include Boris Johnson (1999-2005) and other former cabinet members Ian Gilmour (1954-1959), Iain Macleod (1963-1965), and Nigel Lawson (1966-1970).[5] Since 2009, the magazine's editor has been journalist Fraser Nelson.[6]".

Why did it take 6 hours for the Israeli military to come to the aid of those desperate people on Oct 7th? Appache helicopters, engines running, pilots at the controls were 5 mins away listening to the cries of people via phones. They were told to stand down. Why ? Funny thing is no one wants to talk about this. It looks like Israel simply let their own civilians be killed

[@SionTJobbins]

Good interview, but I'm still unsure what Netanyahu or even Israel's broad end game is. Is it full control of all the land from the River to the Sea; is it control of all the Land from the River to the Sea but with some Arab cantons with limited self-government; is it complete withdrawal of the West Bank but integrating some land like Ariel, Ma'ale Adumin into Israel proper and some internationalisation of Palestinian lands? It's a simple question, but what is the map of Israel in say 2034? My view is if Israel can't get an internationally recognised border and peace treaty by the end of this decade then, in 15 years time, with a huge increase in Arab population in the are, lessening for support for Israel abroad and just one strong/charismatic/crazy leader (a Nasser/Napoleon/Putin) who is ready to lead the Arabs, then, Israel could be broken in 24 hours and then the whole Third Temple lost.

False. Israel left Gaza completely in 2005. And Hamas started firing rockets at Israel soon after they took over from the Palestinian Authority. By the way, Hamas killed 600 members of the PA (their own people supposedly) when they took over.

[@serpentines6356]

​@@dstei90035 A lot of people say Israel still controlled water, etc... So, what do you say to those people? I haven't looked up the info., so don't know.

[@davidsteinberg7773]

@@serpentines6356 Israel supplied something like 10 - 13% of the water to Gaza. Hamas, before Oct. 7th, was a horrible administrator of Gaza water sources as well. Israel also supplied 50% of Gaza's electricity AT NO CHARGE before the war. Again, the focus of Hamas has been on building tunnels and shooting rockets and not on providing dependable electricity or water.

[@SquawkingSnail]

We cry for Ukrainians under bombardment, both my children are at school with children from families who were evacuated from the war zone there, who have many borders to cross over into safety. But we are expected to quietly accept the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians being picked off in an actual cage.

[@narendra62]

@SquawkingSnail There is one key difference. The Ukrainians work really hard to remove the civilians from the fronline. Hamas, however, fight from amongst the civilians and use their deaths as a propaganda tool. See the difference. It's a war, and if Israel wanted to minimise its own casualties, more civilians would be killed . They are clearly showing restraint.
