you asked and i told you that the Muslim world uses them as pawns. i never said they hate them, you did.

you dont hate pawns, they're pieces on your side of the board, but they're expendable. you'll kill off every last one of your pawns if it means you can save a rook.

do you not know the basic rules of chess? i thought the metaphor was very basic.


I have played chess for exactly once in my life. But anyway. What is the relationship between Palestinians and the Muslim world? I had thought they were fellow followers of Islam or some such.

the relationship is that Palestinians are pawns of the Muslim nations, and the "game of chess" is defeating Israel. they hate Israel more than they love Palestinians.

there is no more simple way i can explain this, i dont understand what you dont understand. you think simply because they're both Muslim they must love each other unconditionally?

i have bad news, there are 2 warring factions of Islam. both hate Israel.

You seem to be exceedingly proud of the fact you know what a pawn is.

Not sure what you guys are saying. So if a country goes to war against another country/people, it is OK to take the land of the defeated? I am not necessarily saying this is wrong, it seems that nations have been engaged in that for thousands of years. But I am pretty sure that that is frowned upon in the modern era. Maybe even a war crime of some kind, if there is also a large-scale displacement of civilians.


Yes. There's nothing magical about borders, and victors can impose conditions upon the vanquished. Border absolutism is a convenient hypocrisy adopted by those happy with the status quo and dropped whenever the status quo is not in their interest.

Having survived through multiple defensive wars, Israel understandably seeks geographically secure borders. I'd think they're reluctant to leave the West Bank fully in large part because it puts them in such an exposed situation. Look at how much land a few thousand militants could seize overnight. Israel might well find itself cut in two.
