Amen

As i mentioned to another person, one of my favourite lines from that musical Wicked

"There are precious few at ease with moral ambiguities. So we all pretend they don't exist".

It's so much easier to call the Gazans pig monkeys who need to be slaughtered or to call Israelis Afrikaaners of the middle east who need to be slaughtered. Learning the minutia of the issue, now that is the hard part.

to sum things up ... there is no good and bad, there is no "fear" or "love" ... there is nothing but a chaos ... and we can either fight it by denying it or we can try to understand as much as we can from it ... that's all we can do ...

Amen

I like the quote:
"There are other things that need to be taken into account here, like the whole spectrum of human emotion. You can't just lump everything into these two categories and then just deny everything else."

People throughout the centutries tend to sort things into good and bad cathegory ... but event though lot of people say's i'm not realy and emphathetic person , i know, that in every conflict, in every war, in every rebellion or supperesion, there were not only "villians" or "herolds" involved ... there were always people ... people with aspirations, dreams, motivations ... taking care not only for themselves, but for their families and close ones .... and even this little fact can lead to a recognition, that we need to know about both sides of the coin, not only to smile at one and frown at the other ... (sorry for my bad english, not native)

Funnyjunk has a contingent of ultranationalists/neonazis.

They are particularly vocal on the political and religion boards. Periodically they like to make these posts.

to make it all clear, i have already read a lot of books from I.B. SInger (jewish author writing about orthodox jews) to know, that they can be mean to all who don't accept their religion and to act bad to those poeple, but now, if we consider this conflict, all opinions and facts from the past go away, and as i said, i sincerely agree with you ... and yes, we are on the internet, all the people (trolls, nazis, nationalist, EVERYONE ...) can write their opinion ... i'm not taking it away from them, because here (and well, everywhere else) it's pointless ... every person need it's own evolution, and the world isn't black and white .... it's actually gray as fuck, and you can have so mixed up opinions that it can drive you isnane in the end... but, that's the world we've created and we're forced to live in... so...

Thank you.

It really came from me wanting to prove assholes wrong. Something always felt wrong whenever people spouted the propaganda usually associated with the issue so I'd always do research whenever a fight would stump me. Over time I guess I've accumulated a wealth of at hand knowledge. Hurray for productive use of time.

and to you're article, in my country, they even informed about the fact, that Hamas is moving their units behind human shields and civillian objects, and they informed about it repeatedly (i watch news all day) .... so i don't get all these anti-Israeli posts and all that ...

this is the most productive use of time you can achieve ... if only there were more people trying to find more info about anything around them, the world would be a completely different place to live .... i'm student, almost doc stud and as far as i know, lot of my colleagues don't care about what's happening around them in the the world ... if you want to go further in life or carreer, you should at least know what the world is all about now ...
