It blinded me for many years. And its sad to see the same for my family and friends. Ive always been pro- Israel but didnt have to come at the cost of hating an entire population for things that happened to someone else that I dont even know about
People blind the world. People tend to lean toward what reinforces their natural biases, and provide a demand for bias in public disks and media. If you watch the film "Network" you'll see a great account of how this developed. It's a matter of individual American responsibility. Facts are more important than partisan games.
@@zlauriault absolutely agree, everyone became so opinionated because some nobodies tells them to live their lifes the way that person lives theirs. Its a sheep here from both sides that just drives boths sides to the end of a cliff. USA needs some good leadership and fast
The BBC should be held liable for flipping the narrative. I watch the demonstration last month to put the pressure on to get the hostages out and they flipped it simply saying, Israelis protest war.
I love to see people actually be able to have a conversation and appreciate the human in front of them. They talked, agreed on some things, had real talk. This young lady at the end showed not only real class, but a kind heart. Well done.
This is what I love. Actual real communication between two people with different opinions. I love watching real debates not one person screaming over another.
Remember, the son of one of the leaders of HAMAS called them out and said it wrong that they want to remove israel. You know it's bad when even your son doesn't support the family business.
There are also IDF and other Israelis calling out their gov't. Hamas is Israel's controlled opposition tool to make excuses to wipe out Gaza. The plan was to own the entire area all along. Even Orthodox Jews say there was no issue with Muslims in the area until they decided to take land and own it, which according to them is forbidden as written in their Torah. The Muslims were already there. Some who worked defense for Israel said Oct 7 attack was impossible if IDF wasn't pulled out and intentionally opened the gate for the small number of intruders who'd otherwise not get within several miles.
Most media has at least a slight bias in one direction or another at least on a few topics when not if many, but it's the viewer that is gullible enough to believe those who deny having any at all on any subject, or simply watches and absorbs to reinforce the biases they were probably taught.
I’ll be honest, I think social media platforms like TikTok are playing a role in that. For some reason, people are seeing more content that paints HAMAS in a positive light. At least, that’s what I’ve heard. I don’t use the platform personally. But if that’s the case, people need to be aware of the potential PsyOps happening here.
Not just on this topic either. This is the way things have been resolved historically. People calmly talk in person and try to understand each others side. These messages via social media fall on deaf ears at best, and often become divisive, toxic and inflammatory.
@@jaquevius And, in my humble opinion, you are absolutely right. The reasons are as simple as this: Negativity sparks controversy, controversial content produces clicks and views, and clicks and views produces monetization. It's more profitable to hate than it is to love, on social media at least.
Gaza's main sources of electricity are its single power plant in Deir al-Balah and from Israeli lines, which make up nearly two-thirds of Gaza's power supply. The idea of the siege is overblown.
@@pandamilkshake Israel has cutted its electricity to Gaza (as the obvious result of when you are put under a siege), and also the Gaza powerplants cannot really operate properly during wartime because of the obvious lack of fuel, coal and other resources.
@@filipmilic7966I'm gonna make a few points here. 1. Not all electricity is gone because they don't all run on one wire, for obvious reasons. 2. Even in war there's other ways to get electricity for example solar and water type energy could still be effective enough for that sort of stuff 3. It could've even have been a public warning across the front lines with a loudspeaker or anything to amplify the speaking. 4. Israel is no longer inside if gaza now, so how are they cutting their power?
@@TheSachaboom I think that your comment and comment from @Zsarar_zichi434 are connected in sense that there are many autonomous power systems that don't rely on grids that would answer the fact that there a many news reports coming from Gaza (which obviously couldn't come if they didn't had electricity). Now these power systems while avaivable for news outlets and journalist are not so much for ordinary civilians who battle every day to survive.
There are nearly 2 million Arab/muslim citizens living in peace and with equal rights in Israel. What would happen if one jew was found in Gaza? He would be taken hostage or worse. According to Google, there are 49 muslim countries in the world, and then here is only 1 Jewish country, a minority, wanting to live peacefully on their thousands of years ancestral land. Nope gotta take that away as well…. Also, many muslim countries persecute or exile jews if found with their borders, why is that? The genocidal hatred is one sided, and it’s against the Jews. Not to mention the fact that they are the only legitimate democratic country in the middle east. And somehow, Israel is compared to Hitler, one started WW2, invaded Europe and murder peaceful people by the million and now you want to compare Hamas to the Jews of WW2? Why, did the Jews shout death to Germany or death to Hitler in 1935-1940?
@@masonhill5157 no truer words ever been said of the middle east muslimist cults. No offense to good, honest people who respect human life and dignity.

This guy, plus the old gentleman and the pleasant lady are what this country should be all about. Civil conversation on difficult topics, keeping an open mind and don't rush to judgement based on feelings, slogans.
This. This is what conservatives want. We don't want to obliterate the left, or cast them out. we want to be able to go back to having civil discussions without mudlsinging and name calling and open violence over a difference of view.
The pleasant lady that heard the word "Zionism" somewhere, didn't know what it meant, and tried to use it in a discussion trying to sound smart? Well, at least she was pleasant.
What is the point trying to talk honestly and rationally with a person full of hatred, someone who is not interested in the truth? You don't represent an 'era', it's just you.
It is also funny how the president of Hamas told the civilians of Hamas that Israel was bluffing and that the civilians should not leave Hamas. Clearly, the criminal leader didn't want his shield to leave.
oh no, its worse than that. Because you see, when those shields die its more propaganda to beat their enemies with. "They killed these poor innocents in this hospital...that we put a mortar emplacement on."
Because he's talking out of his sphincter. This man and the "army" he was a part of INTENTIONALLY BOMBED A CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, KILLING DOCTORS, NURSES & CHILDREN...A WAR CRIME
The first woman chanting that slogan, I'd love to ask her this: do you realise that instead of helping Gazans with that phrase you are in fact helping Hamas to oppress their own people. They've managed to spectacularly screw up one the most amazing places in the Middle East, they only control a small portion! Imagine how bad they'd be if they had control of a larger piece. This man is a true example of calmness and courage. He doesn't fire off and get angry, but calmly answers people. "A gentle word turns aside anger"
Hamas won by a small margin, 19 YEARS AGO. Hamas became much more radical in that time. The civilians, especially children, who did not vote, were not even born should not suffer those consequences.
She might not be familiar with Mishlei, and I would suspect if she were, she would realize how her attitude is built on a false narrative of cherry-picked history.
Half of those are combatant casualties. There is a less than 1-1 civilian to combatant ratio. Extremely low as compared to any other war. No civilians (ESPECIALLY women and young children) should ever have to die this way. War is horrible. But it’s important to be realistic and honest about the numbers.
Asspull number that ive heard 2 weeks ago already 😂😂😂 are you sure that the number doesnt stand for the amount of partners your mom had in the past year?
As non Jews my family has been saying that the Jewish people deserve to have their own country where their culture began since 1850s.

I still don't understand why people have a problem with Zionism? There are 49 Islamic countries in the world. Why is that not an issue for anyone complaining about a Jewish state.
Ask this question to Jewish people. There are many Jews who say no to Zionism. There are many Jews who protest what they are doing in Gaza. Just watch their videos.
Well they built that state by expelling Palestinians Christians and Muslims, the very people that took them in after Europe expelled them from Europe. Constantly expand the territory into West Bank illegally and that is the problem.

@@Global_Rankings_ I like to think what is gaining the media attention is a very loud and aggressive minority. Everyone in my social circle is behind Israel and if they aren’t once you discuss it with then change their viewpoint.
He says that they send text to the Palestinians that there will b a bomb in the area but many of them dont have the electricity to change thier phone. They are relying on solar panels to charge the phones but they dont have enough solar panels which leads to Israel killing thousands of innocent Palestinians.
tbh 90% of the media is left wing and their garbage and lies. if news actually put out news that its supposed to be instead of how they want it to be then we would have a lot less division out there. make it about the actually news not your politically viewed news.
Not with my countries support and Israël is defending itself than Hamas who was created after Israël for years oppressed Gaza should havecthe right to defend Gaza aswell right? They both are evil.
@shipwrech909 they most certainly do. It's called conquering. Every country on this planet has been conquered by another in some way, shape, or form from the time man learned to use a stick as a weapon. Just because you don't like the fact that one place has bigger sticks than another, doesn't make it wrong.
those people who were calm and able to listen are truly smart. they can disagree if they want at the end, but they LISTENED and didnt dismiss. some may have asked pressing questions, but they didnt dismiss.
No. They were still rude to start with out of ignorance. And maybe they weren't fully convinced and it will only take one biased article to get back into their echo chamber.
If the IDF takes such care to warn civilians how come they still have killed so many women and children? Can be Hamas fault all the time you've worn out that excuse.

Ooh they rain in bombs and then he has the audacity to say they do everything to prevent civilian casualties.He is responsible for the suffering of Palestinians so what do you expect him to say.
In the end we're all hypocrites more than 20,000 civilian casualties. Less than a year and more than a quarter of the Casualties from the U.S in the middle east for 20 years. War is fucking cold and it's the soldiers who should be putting themselves on the lines. It's being lazy. Not saying there wouldn't be civilian casualty and that it isn't right for Israel to attack the Terrorist groups. They're justified but not bombing hospitals, churches, and mosques. Let alone the harassment from the Israeli soldiers towards Christians and Muslims

@@e0nema0tak1v Israel had full control of that hospital and the tunnel system underneath it. They were fully aware it wasn’t a Hamas holdout. What they were also aware of is Hamas casualties were being treated there, since doctors were just treating everyone in the middle of this crisis. So Israel fabricated some propaganda to convince people like you, and then killed a bunch of innocent people. The knowledge that the tunnels were clear and that Hamas wasn’t using the hospital as a base was admitted to by a high ranking military official during a televised interview. Israel (probably Linuk, Netanyahu’s political party or the IDF) then released a statement denouncing the statements made by this military officer.

Is this the truth?

While shooting men walking hands up holding a white flag, journalist clearly wearing "press" vest, and aid workers clearly in marked aid vehicles in BRIGHT DAYLIGHT... "What does Israel do? It calls the phones and text messages.." While knowingly Israeli cuts off their electricity and internet connections... So are we actually going to trust people who claim where they've been or who they are without proper checking first?
Yeah, and Israel has also been trying to make roadways to get people out of combat areas, but guess who has been destroying those roads and guess who has been destroying humanitarian aid from multiple countries.
That's why it is international standard to have the plaintiff and defendant to be present in the same room so that this type of fabricated sh*t doesn't come up. Obviously a murderer will find a way to justify it to defend himself.

Tell me one thing... The people who lived in Palestinian land before the Israelis arrived, were they not Palestinians? Were they not natives of this land? Did they migrate here from somewhere else? No, this was their land. Perhaps many of them converted to Islam from other religions, but it was their land, their origin. Despite many hardships, they did not leave their land. They are resilient people. Where else would they go from their country? I don't understand this question... This land is their right. Why should they give up their rights? If necessary, they would even give their lives for this land. The same goes for many countries. Many nations have fought for their land until they got it back: Vietnam, India, Bangladesh, Kenya, Algeria, Mozambique... They all fought bloody battles against colonial powers to reclaim their sovereignty and land, and eventually, they succeeded.
