Grayson Sinclair I know that this doesn't really fit with all of your previous comments but thanks so much for the information everyone provided(that wasn't just pointless arguments or not factual). I had been trying to get information but my school isn't really discussing it and neither is my family so this was really helpful to understand what I should actually support. I figured that I was Pro Palestine but I didn't know the whole story so this was really helpful to read, thanks again

That's so sweet of you!! 🥹 Hopefully everyone just learns more about what's going on. 🤍

Do you have any suggestions for what I could do to try to support Palestine? I don't really have the funds to donate but I realize that I should be trying to help if possible in other ways

That's very understandable. I do have finals so it might be hard to get information out to people but I can try

It definitely helped me to learn what was happening so hopefully other people take an interest as well so they can understand the situation

But the definition of war is two military forces fighting. Palestine has no military when Israel has one the strongest ones in the world, the Palestinians are defenseless.

what should it be called?


message 213: by niyya نية (new)

niyya نية Options:

A genocide - The mass murder/massacre of innocent people

Ethnic cleansing - Wiping out a certain ethnicity/getting rid of them/kicking them out

Occupation - taking land by force

Apartheid - separating a certain group of people from another group (this case: Jews & Palestinian Muslims/Christians)


Johanna -º^º——º-º- Yes, of course the attacking must stop in order for there to be peace. But I won’t form an opinion, because it is pointless to argue with strangers on the internet about who has the “right” to kill people and who doesn’t. Nobody has. I get your point, though.


message 215: by niyya نية (new)

niyya نية Not to argue, but : Who said the Palestinians have the right to kill people?


message 216: by blossom ⚛︎ (new)

blossom ⚛︎ For the Bible part, as a Christian I stand against op's statements The Bible is a work of literature which is more than 1000 years old. It has been interpreted, and retold more times than it has been translated. Much has been lost in this process, one sentence can be taken in in so many different ways.


message 217: by blossom ⚛︎ (new)

blossom ⚛︎ Not only are your views bigoted but they are also based of false belief and misinformation. I would kindly suggest you too lay back, think about what you're saying and educate yourself not only on topics regarding politics, genocide and history but also of cyberbullying, media literacy and Bible interpretation.

Well as I see it, Goodreads is the perfect place to talk about politics (human rights, GENOCIDE). Books have always been rooted in showing your belief and personal opinion about such 'things'.


rae (jurdan's version) “don’t shove your political views on other people” “goodreads isn’t a place to talk about politics” okay so if i said black lives matter would you say the same thing? if i said hitler was wrong would you say the same thing? if i talked about the KKK WOULD. YOU. SAY. THE. SAME. THING???


lucy grace (tates version) **NOT TRYING TO FIGHT I LUV YALL** Please please please please hear me out 🥺🤍 When I came to gr I was so happy bc it was just books and love and such a safe environment! You guys did that so thank you 🥰💕 Now, I feel like if someone comes they will feel unsafe and leave. Ik that y'all aren't trying to do that, but please can we keep human rights/politics off gr? I LUV U GUYSSSSSS 😭


message 225: by blossom ⚛︎ (new)

blossom ⚛︎ War is just downright wrong, it doesn't matter who started it but IT HAS TO STOP. I stand with the people I see as the victims here, the people who've been oppressed since a century. I stand with justice. At the same time I will NEVER condemn the death of Israelites and their innocent children. This is more so about the views if Israeli politicians and their twisted minds.


message 226: by joyce (new)

joyce this is already a very prominent subject in people’s lives and people read books to escape, I know it’s not like that for everyone and I’m not saying it’s a bad thing to be aware of the current situation but people might need to get away from the horrible stuff happening in the world

Users who believe delulu is the solulu works in topics like these are requested to leave this thread immediately. I know this may triggering to many people but those who stay ignorant with no excuse or with petty excuses are true hypocrites
