Clashes between Jews and Palestinians in Jerusalem. Israel now invading Gaza according to (Questionable) Reports - If your thoughts are "I don't like either" you don't need to fucking post because it's been said 100 times you fucking dullard

What has to be done said:
Palestinians are not doing any of these things in France. You can say that muslims are responsible for these things, and I would agree with you, but there are many Christians among the Palestinians. And I will grant you that there may be criminal Palestinian refugees in Europe.

You have swallowed the argument often made by IDF and jewish shills in which they point to the problems caused by muslim refugees in Europe and then say Israel is justified because she oppresses muslims, how based.

This is ridiculous. The entire reason that Europe has a refugee problem in the first place is because of the wars and destruction Israel has caused in the middle east, often using the United States to do the dirty work. Jews are leaders in resettlement of refugees into Europe, advocating for diversity etc. for Europe and not for Israel which must retain its jewish majority at all costs.

I know it has taken me a while to respond but I would like to answer this.

Sure there are Christians and Druze in Palestine, but Palestine is undisputedly an Islamic state. They voted in a militant Jihadist party which then became autocrats within Gaza, and the West Bank government has tried to overthrow the governments of both Lebanon and Jordan to install another Jihadi regime and were expelled from both states for doing so.

Hamas is a jihadist terror organization, so it's clear who is supporting them in the demographic within Palestine.

Secondly; Israel didn't cause the migrant crisis. They didn't help by taking in refugees admittedly, but in the context of the troubles they face on a daily basis I think this is entirely reasonable.

Thirdly, Jews in Israel are not the same as Jews in America or Europe. The new lefty-gen of Jews in the US tend to be avowedly anti Israel and the right pro, whereas in Europe Jews tend to be all more or less pro. Not all Jews are Barbara Spector, the same way that not all Christians are Augustine of Hippo.

The vast majority of Jews in Israel are traditional mastorim, not reform Jews. They believe that orthodoxy is the correct way but they don't follow it besides basic rituals. Reform Judaism is a joke in Israel. Israel is open to anyone who qualifies as a Jew under the Nuremberg laws/converted to Judaism/is a lost tribe member.

Incorrect because 40% of Jews identify as HiloniI. That is, secular/reform. The Mastorim only make up 23%, and they'e the second largest sect.

It doesn't matter if you think they are a joke or not, it's why stuff like LGBT rights etc just flies through the Knesset more or less unopposed.

As much as I think this map is complete BS -- would any actually miss Lebanon, most of Syria and Iraq, or Kuwait? Lets be honest now.

Yes, I certainly would miss Syria. I only use Syrian Aleppo soap, which is the best for skin. I found a Syrian store in Brooklyn that had a huge supply when the war broke out. I won't use anything else.

Syrian and Lebanese make the best Arabic pastries so everyone leave them alone so they can make wonderful soap and delicious desserts. If Gulf Arabs disappeared tomorrow nothing of value would be lost.

Yes definitely, I approve of this method and also make them dress up in outfits showing as much skin as possible.

Also record all footage in Ultra High Definition for archiving purposes and air it on TV for free.

Good idea. The records should be as highly defined as possible so that they can be better studied and understood by future historians.

I like the Lebanese. I’ve had good experiences with Lebanese ex-pats. They also had good food too.

Not that I've seen, but they're a pretty crazy group and deserve a thread in community-watch.
First I heard of them, they were protesting Amy Carlson (love has won cult). They didn't like she criticized their valcano gods

Hilonu is a very meaningless term

Though hiloni literally means "secular", many scholars noted it is problematic in translation. Professor Yoav Peled preferred to render it as "nonobservant."[3] Kenneth D. Wald and Samuel Shye commented that:[4]

It is essential to recall that secularity in Israel is defined in reaction to the extremely stringent demands of Orthodox Judaism and does not necessarily entail a conscious rejection of Jewish religious identity or even necessarily connote indifference. Although their standard of observance is low by Orthodox standards, many of the ostensibly secular exhibit an array of religious acts that would mark them off as fairly religious in the American context. Though the term is misleading, "secular" is the common label to identify people who do not consistently practice the ritual behavior mandated by Orthodox Judaism.

The demarcation between the hiloni category and the nearest, the masorti or "traditional", is highly porous. Surveys demonstrated that it is not reliant on objective levels of belief or ritual observance, but mainly on socioethnic lines: European-descended Israelis, either native or post-Soviet immigrants, tend to describe themselves as "secular" even when they observe or believe quite substantially, and Middle Eastern and North African-descended regard themselves as "traditional" regardless of lifestyle and conviction.

Israeli social scientists measure levels of religiosity/secularity among Jews in terms of practice, not faith, and use the category of "totally nonobservant" to identify the completely secular.[6] In the 2009 Guttman Center survey, the most comprehensive on the matter, 46% of all respondents reported they were hiloni. About 16% of the entire sample, virtually all of them hiloni, stated they were "totally nonobservant". Almost all the rest of the hiloni were "somewhat observant", and a negligible minority stated "observance to great extent".[7] As many ritual behaviours, like setting a doorpost amulet, are part of Jewish-Israeli lifestyle and lack an overt religious connotation, the "totally nonobservant" often perform some. In the 1999 Guttman survey, only a third of them did not practice any of the ten common rituals studied.[6] At the other end, Yaacov Yadgar and Charles Liebman estimated in 2009 that about 25% of the hilonim are highly observant, on par with the more religious subgroups.[1]

The average Hiloni in Israel would be on the level of an American Conservative Jew about but actually respecting Orthodoxy instead of shunning it

It gives us a foothold somewhere close to Pakistan to go remove the people hiding across the street from their major military academies that the mysteriously don't know about, like bin Laden.

They have some rather unique exports there.

Also used to be an important land route in the past. That may still come into play if other routes get cut off.

Gaza has no such exports or strategic importance. They only provide value to Iran by being an annoyance to Israel.

Hold up. You just told me the Mastorim were the main group, and I proved you wrong.

Now you're trying to tell me the demographic you just called a joke are somehow observant orthodox jews?

That doesn't align with internal Israeli social policy or legislation at all. If you were correct femenism, trans, gay shit, recognition of divorce/marriage outside the country, religious toleration of non observant jews etc would not exist.

Zionism was from the very start an ethnic secular movement, and from foundation onwards Israel has been that. Yes, the Rabbinate is Orthodox, but you can see from the way Jews behave on the street in Tel Aviv that they have no influence whatsoever outside the marriage game.

An Israeli Hiloni is pretty wide. It encompasses people who only go through pretty basic religious rituals (passover, bar mitzvah...) to people who don't follow the religion at all. They are also the majority population-wise. Reform Judaism never caught on in Israel and thanks for that, because it's retarded.
