PARIS: Jews flee as Jewish businesses are being smashed, burned and looted over Gaze offensive - Polidicks

[QUOTE=outlawpickle;45466238]I thought it was quite obvious that it was a reference to Israel. I'm sorry you're somehow offended.[/QUOTE] It still makes no sense. It's obvious the country you were referring to was Israel, but where is the sarcasm? In saying that Jews should leave France to Israel?

[QUOTE=proch;45466566]Calling people dipshits and dumb is a start.[/QUOTE] Well, I'm not calling anyone in the thread a dipshit, I was making a quip like this post: [QUOTE=Araknid;45465461]Because the fucking jews in Paris are totally involved with what Israel is doing. Fucking retarded bandits[/QUOTE] Are you going to call him an offensive whiny arse for calling people in the thread "fucking retarded bandits"? And dumb is a rating.

[QUOTE=DogGunn;45466580]It still makes no sense. It's obvious the country you were referring to was Israel, but where is the sarcasm? In saying that Jews should leave France to Israel?[/QUOTE] The ironic part is, Israel is the one country that would probably agree to that sentiment.

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;45466701]The ironic part is, Israel is the one country that would probably agree to that sentiment.[/QUOTE] It's true, and all the more reason to keep out the over zealous Zionistic nutjobs from government if possible. But there is clearly some merit in having a state for Jews when it's clear that there is still an undertone of hatred of people simply because of their religion.

[QUOTE=headshotter;45465685]I'll probably be called out as a racist but whatever : no French people did this, a few maghrebis did. We're having a real hard time integrating them. Friends were there as witnesses, filmed scenes where people would shout "Allah Akbar" while beating police cars trying to get to safety.

[QUOTE=proch;45465976]Last time I checked Judaism was a religion, not a nationality.[/QUOTE] Nationalities and races are created by historical circumstance. Races emerge because they are treated that way: i.e: 'black' becomes a race after slavery and colonialism. Jew has become a race once it didn't matter if we renounced our faith, converted to something else or didn't, we were still sent to the death camps.

[QUOTE=outlawpickle;45466238]I thought it was quite obvious that it was a reference to Israel. I'm sorry you're somehow offended.[/QUOTE] I wasn't wasn't offended. And I know it was a reference to Israel. Just because you referenced Israel doesn't make it sarcasm.

I'm tired of both sides tbh, I wish they would just go back where they came from and leave my contry alone.

[QUOTE=AlexDeviant;45467137]I'm tired of both sides tbh, I wish they would just go back where they came from and leave my contry alone.[/QUOTE] Funnily enough, it's that kind of sentiment that sparked the riots most likely.

It's things like this that allow Israel to justify stricter measures against Palestine. These people aren't just not helping, they're actually exacerbating the situation over there. How stupid can you be?

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;45467153]Funnily enough, it's that kind of sentiment that sparked the riots most likely.[/QUOTE] Not really, no. The ones you see destroying stuff at riots are not "victims from society", they're shitheads who don't even care about France in the first place.

On the other hand you don't see any Jewish people attacking mosques and smashing businesses. How weird.

The maghrebis tend to stay separated from the rest, are often racist and the most visible portion is made of huge cunts, but they're not the ones around here who do that sort of shit. [QUOTE=DrDevil;45465494]What the hell, this is fucked up. And this happens in an european country in the 21st century.[/QUOTE] France has had issues with people regularly setting synagogues on fire or spray-painting swastikas over graves in Jewish cemeteries for a while now. The most common insults I hear young people between 10 and 16 years old use are basically "You jew" and "You dirty fucking arab". Fuck France. [editline]22nd July 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=headshotter;45466099]I've spotted Morrocan and Algerian ones. The Turkish immigrants in France are chill dudes as far as I know.[/QUOTE] As long as you don't mention the Armenian genocide. There were riots in the street after the government officially recognized the Armenian genocide and called for Turkey to do the same. Hell, after that announcement, a ton of French owned businesses in Turkey had to close because people were either not buying their stuff anymore, or the local turkish partner businesses cut all links, or in the worst case, some of them got ransacked.

Dehumanizing criminals or rejecting their identity is only going to exacerbate the current situation.

"We don't like what Israel is doing to Palestine so we're going to do it to our own country!" Real smart, shitlords.

[QUOTE=Laserbeams;45465518]Why does this happen? I really can't picture a bunch of French guys smashing shops belonging to Jewish people[/QUOTE] france has a [B]huge[/B] muslim population because they had tons of colonies in north africa and after they all became dictatorships they let them flood into france because they felt guilty for letting them become dictatorships [editline]22nd July 2014[/editline] still what the shit

[QUOTE=DogGunn;45466719]But there is clearly some merit in having a state for Jews when it's clear that there is still an undertone of hatred of people simply because of their religion.[/QUOTE] We tried. It didn't work out so well.

Supporting the oppressed and victimized means supporting Palestine as well as supporting Parisian Jews seeing their businesses and lives destroyed. you can’t have one without the other [editline]22nd July 2014[/editline] also, I will be in Paris in a few weeks, hope I don't die

[QUOTE=cocothegogo;45465447]God people really don't like Jews do they[/QUOTE] Here's the one thing I never understood... why jews? I mean what do we have that other monotheistic religions don't? Is it the kippah? The beards? Is it the funny dances?

Is it the funny dances?[/QUOTE] Jews started out as a fucking huge religion then a new one showed up and became an even fucking huger religion so they did what a lot of people in majorities do and started shitting over the minority. Basically Jews have this accumulation of stereotypes, folklore, history and culture that makes them a very easy scape goat.

[QUOTE=outlawpickle;45465839]If only there was a country of Jews we could send them to and there wouldn't be any problems because everyone recognized that it's their country.[/QUOTE] "Let's take all the Jews and move them somewhere" I think some guy tried this once

[QUOTE=cocothegogo;45465447]God people really don't like Jews do they[/QUOTE] I think it all stems from the frowning on of usury back in the middle ages hell there's even an option to kick out the jews in your realm in crusader kings 2 if you can't pay back your loan

[QUOTE=Hamsteronfire;45469129]hell there's even an option to kick out the jews in your realm in crusader kings 2 if you can't pay back your loan[/QUOTE] I'm assuming it's a bit more involved than this, but I imagined a single button on the side of the screen with "KICK OUT THE JEWS" written on it and laughed.

[QUOTE=A Beaver;45469397]I'm assuming it's a bit more involved than this, but I imagined a single button on the side of the screen with "KICK OUT THE JEWS" written on it and laughed.[/QUOTE] Actually that's pretty much what's written on the button.

[QUOTE=Canuhearme?;45469433]Actually that's pretty much what's written on the button.[/QUOTE] The "kick out the jews" button is a defining feature of modern strategy games

How is attacking innocent people going to influence what happens in Gaza at all in a positive way? Fuck this just fuels the notion that criticizing Israel makes you an anti-Semite.

[QUOTE=A Beaver;45469397]I'm assuming it's a bit more involved than this, but I imagined a single button on the side of the screen with "KICK OUT THE JEWS" written on it and laughed.[/QUOTE] It literally says "Expel the Jewry"
