Why was it necessary to mention that you went to a black barber for the first time? Is it only black barbers whose premiums are going up? How is the guy's race or profession related to the point you were making?

That is a difficult issue for sure. There are some settlements that Israel itself doesn't recognize. These shouldn't get a vote in the referendum. If they end up in a future Palestinian state, so be it. After the referendum, there may also need to be some land swaps to make each state viable.

From what I have read, the borders between territories captured by Israel in 1967 and Israel-proper were essentially open right after the war and tens of thousands of Palestinian laborers began traveling to Israel right after the war. At first this process was informal, but later legalized with docs

Poverty decreased substantially in Gaza after 1967 and healthcare and education improved. Of course those gains stalled after the intifada began. Its a difficult puzzle to solve. I think the plan I suggested of a pan-Palestine referendum would have a shot at working, but nobody is asking me.

Again, context matters here. From 1948 until 1967, Gaza was occupied by Egypt. Gazans were not granted Egyptian citizenship, nor were they allowed to work in Egypt or leave the strip at all for the most part. After 1967, but before the 1st intifada, almost half of Gazans worked in Israel.

Why stop at Venezuel? Cuba, Iran, and Russia have all “nationalized“ American assets in their countries at some point in time. I’m all for putting pressure on these illegitimate regimes, but I’m not sure Trump, who is trying to nationalize Tic Toc in much the same way is the guy to lead the charge.

Stone throwing resulted in checkpoints, which was met with suicide bombings, which was met with a security wall, which was met by rockets, which led to missile defense systems, which led to attack tunnels…there is a context that you minimize.

When Gaza first came under Israeli control in 1967, there was complete freedom of movement, with many Gazans traveling to Israel daily for work, and may Israelis going to Gaza to shop, etc. Then the intifada started in the 80s, and step by step security restrictions were ramped up in response.

If you want to call me names, there is no point in the discussion. Hamas amassed hundreds of thousands of rockets and other weapons with air and see access closed. Imagine what they would have amassed otherwise. You dismiss Israel's legitimate security concerns. You have the luxury to do that.

Anti-Israel protesters were on the March on October 8th already. So, its hard to see these march as anything other than condoning Hamas' atrocities.

You may know that Hamas ruled over Gaza since 2007. Israel withdrew all soldiers and civilians from Gaza in 2006. Yet, rather than focusing on building a better world for Palestinians in Gaza, they spent nearly 20 years plotting genocide against Jews, which they attempted on Oct 7.

I'm not saying the protesters are wearing the headbands. I'm saying Hamas is, but the protesters don't recognize it as a symbol of intolerance in the same way the do to a red MAGA hat. Queers for Palestine see no paradox in their support of a militantly conservate movement.
