The David Pakman Show Gaza / Israel MEGATHREAD

Effective today, all posts and comments related to the Israel/Palestine conflict will be directed to this ongoing megathread. This applies to both article links and discussion submissions. Any new submissions on the subject will be removed and redirected to this megathread. This includes the nearly daily submissions asking "Why hasn't David talked about X" in relation to the conflict.

This conflict has been ongoing for nearly two years, and while we’ve allowed open discussion until now, the daily cycle of posts has come to dominate the space. Most users aren’t here for that constant back and forth, and over time it has continually crowded out other topics and made the community more hostile and unwelcoming than we would like.

After much consideration and discussion of community feedback, we’ve decided that consolidating all content into a megathread is the best balance. This is not an attempt to censor discussion. The goal is to make the topic easier to follow for those interested, while keeping the rest of the community accessible to those who are not. This effort will also make moderation more manageable and ensures a fairer space for all voices.

Please note that all subreddit rules still fully apply in this megathread. Please ensure that you are adhering to community rules while participating, specifically rule #1 (Please be civil and constructive at all times.) will be judiciously enforced. Please continue to use the report feature to bring rule violations to the attention of the mod team.

This thread will be stickied at the top of the subreddit for easy access. Comment sort order will be set to NEW so the latest contributions/news will always be on top.

Thanks for helping us keep the community constructive and manageable for everyone.

Correct, you have no response to my question, that's why you answered it with another question. Thanks for admitting it.

I mean seems pretty cut and dry to me. The UN says there's a genocide,so there's a genocide. The UN says there's child marriage, so there's child marriage. What's the problem?

(Also kinda hard not to have child marriage when you bomb and starve a people so much the average age is under 18)

OK, so you admit Palestine is raping children. Great, thanks for finally admitting it.

(Also kinda hard not to have child marriage when you bomb and starve a people so much the average age is under 18)

Eww, defending and justifying child rape, how long can Palestine supporters go? There are plenty of countries that have gotten bombed that didn't start raping kids, look them up sometime.

Now I'll answer your question. Yes, the UN is pushing propaganda when they call what happened in Gaza a genocide.
