Controversial General Political Discussion

The other way around is also true if he got his diploma in a institution of ill reputation.

Sure but fact is your work speaks for itself and it would be out there for everyone to see.

Reputation of an institution can hold you back or can carry you only for sometime - after that it's your work which matters

Agreed.

 

[Reborn]

this is true in most cases

In which cases does education or years of working experience won't lend credibility

 

[Monkey D Theories]

It's crazy how you are really repeating the propaganda of the appartheid state. No it would not. It would only allow Israel to annex Gaza and oppress Palestinian even more.

Israel invaded Gaza in order to annex it. Any researcher on colonization and international comitee understand that.

Israel is not just commiting war crime, it's commiting hundreds of war crimes, multiple crimes against humanity, an ethnic cleansing and a genocide. And this is WITHOUT even talking about the current oppression of Palestinian and arabs minorities in and out of Israel.

A politic of extermination doesn't necesarily need the extermination of all, it's a politic based on racism and ethnocentric values meant to get rid of an entire population in a area and push the rest to go away. Which is exactly what Israel is doing at the moment.

For the love of Usopp, learn about the history and the sociology of colonialism.

And understand that what Israel wants is an ETHNOSTATE.

Even if this is all true(I’m not sure it is). It would still be better if they just accepted their loss, let themselves be annexed, and then fought for Israeli citizenship and equal rights.

At this point they are fighting a war they have zero chance of winning. They are motivated by an ideology of suicide where “martyrdom” is glorified.

They’re legit throwing away their lives for nothing.

The Palestinian-Israeli conflict will forever be a political dilemma, as an individual whom land has been divided and taken by foreign powers times and times again I can understand why the Palestinians are refusing to surrender.

Hopefully it will not be seen as a political dillema in the future

I am not a supporter of Hamas but frankly speaking - what you said just now is wrong on so many levels

 

[Monkey D Theories]

If for no other reason, the Gazans should surrender for the sake of the children still living in Gaza.

At some point the endless fighting becomes futile

It’s either the Palestinians go extinct or Israelis drop the never ending dreams of a promise land that extends from the Nile to the Euphrates

for me if someone is fairly reasonable and isn't blinded by their own views then I don't care about their education or work experience

that's just me tho

I don't think jewish people are at fault for it, jewish people did not colonise Palestine, or control the state that did colonise Palestine, jewish people are opressed by the state of Israel too

You not caring is different matter

But you said " in most cases" education/experience adds credibility.

So, I am wondering when does it not?

As an arab myself, I agree.
Agree that this war is wrong and shouldn’t have happened in the first place.
However, they should never apply for Israeli citizenship, that’s Basically handing israel the keys to their land, a two state country is the best choice for all.

A life lost through the resistance and the endurance against oppression will NEVER be lost for nothing.

Listen to yourself right now. You are legitimizing colonization and oppression. In One Piece term sit would be like saying "you lost, surrender" to wano's samourais or Dressrosa's population. It's legit horrible.

We CANNOT accept oppression !

Maybe someone who officially studied political science would diagree with some political science facts, if they do then that should be justified with an explanation based on facts, not just with the credibility of their education

Palestinians are also not soldiers, those 46,000 who have been killed were not an army of 46,000

There is no surrender to negotiate, the state of Israel is genociding them

maybe my phrasing was bad but I didn't mean that

I know what you mean but it’s hard to distinguish religion and politics when the ruling political party waves the flag of religion every now and then, I belong to a pacifist islamic group but does that count when Jihadists terrorize entire countries in the name of radical islam? Nope, I will just be called a terrorist as well, it’s partially our fault cuz he preferred to stay silent and radicals had done things in the name of all so their deeds indirectly affected us as well.
Same goes for jewish people, zionists always speak of the promised land as if their israeli government represents the entire jewish population.

 

[Zenos7]

would you take someone with a political science phd more seriously?

Not necessarily. Its always up to the argumentation

In my opinion if the issue of class, workers and capitalists, and the state's role, is talked about more then that will make it very easy to recognise
