*you play Minecraft why you jump to philosophy* *Orientalism is the opposite of what you say. Orientalism criticizes Arabs and exaggerates/distorts differences of Arab peoples and cultures as compared to that of Europe* Talking about Europeans they needed immigrants for labor to buid the countries and use them at the frontline in wars but once those immigrants grew in numbers they are now unwanted. *If Europe is not old and has good fertility rate why since the beginning they opened the gate begging for immigrants to come to work ?* let alone centuries of conquering nations to steal their resources and knowledge.

Dr.Said's futile attempt of appealing for US empathy regarding the fate of the Palestinians would be endeering to watch 30 years later if it weren't for how tragic things have turned put to be. As the Palestinian genocide progresses and the American deep state gets fully unmasked it is clear now that Dr.Said should have saved this pandering and addressed the US in its real terms: as an all time western fascistic colonial power no different from the times of the native american or afroamerican struggles. Tough lessons have been learned yet again it seems.

[@nadasuleman1725]

It is because he is a ZIONIST. We need to make a clear distinction between Jewish people and Zionists. Jewish people who practice their religion know that Zionism is a contradiction to their beliefs and a horrific, extremist ideology that was born and bred in Europe by an atheist man and propped up by anti-Semitic Christians.

One of the comments in here is saying, That Edward sawed would have been a terrible leader Because he believed in the right of return. But if you accept that the Jewish of this world Should have the right to return to a land that they lived in 7 thousands years ago. You blame the Palestinians for wanting to return to a land they lived in 70 years ago By the way, Edward sawed family home, the actual house that they lived in. Was stolen from his family and and became the centre for the most Zionist Christian American organisation What would any want if they were terrorised and had their house occupied by an entity that they did not do anything against You have to really put yourself in another human place to understand that You have to accept the idea that the Palestinians are human.

Israel never intended for a two state solution. Knesset members have stated this time and again. Israel doesn’t even admit to it being an oppressive power. You can’t deny the major sticking point and then agree to two states.

[@rai2423]

Israel never wanted a two state solution. They always wanted all the land.

[@nadasuleman1725]

Unfortunately that is not possible with Zionism. To build an ‘ethno state’ on a land that has historically been home for numerous religions and ethnicities, is never feasible. It will never be safe because it’s creation was made possible by displacing and massacring a native population off their land. The Palestinians will never stop resisting their occupation, the injustices and oppression being inflicted upon them will only breed more resistance fighters and create more bloodshed. Zionism needs to be dismantled, the apartheid regime must take accountability for its crimes, and international law needs to be respected and upheld. The right of return, as affirmed by the UN, needs to be granted to the millions of displaced Palestinians. Only then, will one secular state be possible. A state with equal rights and freedoms for all. That is how you create co-existence.

Unless we are all human But some are more human than others

[@JackFieldBand]

Edward Said What?

[@azads.t8633]

From the late Yasin until today! We have been crying for many years over the massacre of Diriasin and Kafrqasem. 100 to 200 Palestinians were massacred in Diriyasin and 48 in Kafr Qasim. Compared to today's war, these numbers are not huge! Is humanity moving forward or backward in terms of cruelty and violence? Weapons are becoming more destructive day by day and human lives are losing more and more value. Is this the result of Nietzsche's famous statement about God? Or is the debate still about what kind of worship of God is, contrary to Nietzsche's view, life? Or that selfish people have hidden God in the basement of their minds and, by claiming God for themselves, are taking the human race to the slaughterhouse? Or does the story have nothing to do with God? Murder and brutality have always challenged optimism about the nature of humanity. A new type of pessimism is emerging with regard to human nature. In my opinion, pessimism towards human nature can make the world more tolerable, because it lowers the level of expectations towards it! Expecting mercy, compassion, fairness, justice and morality from him over all his fellow human beings apparently seems more like stupidity and how stupid God has made me!
