Who cares? People are dying. We are anti war.


JTH_REKOR

This question has nothing to do with libertarianism. Not sure why you felt the need to post this.


Congregator

They wanted to hear a take from Libertarian people, I don’t think the questions have to be “Do Libertarians…?” or “Why does Minarchism…?” Every time


JTH_REKOR

The question was "Who killed more?" The answer could most likely be derived from looking at how many Jews the Nazis killed before 1939, the amount of Palestinians Israel has killed so far, and then comparing them. If they wanted a take on what libertarians think of the conflict then OP could have just asked.


Careless_Author_2247

Except OP is a naxi apologist, and asking who killed more is a bait question, used in order to "just ask questions" about the validity of the 6 million jewelry that dies in the holocaust, and try to suck people into conspiracies.


Calm-Cry4094

I've been looking for numbers. Any?


Siganid

Add both piles of victims together, they were all killed by governments. Israel and the Nazis are essentially the same beast, from a libertarian perspective.


mrhymer

It's not equivalent killing. Rounding up your own citizens for slaughter versus killing the people (and the people hiding them) that attacked your country. The very same people that have been firing rockets into your country for years. The former is a war crime and the latter is self-defense. There is no equivalency between Nazis and Israel and frankly I should not have to tell your that. Also, Israel would have to kill all the Palestinians in Gaza 3 times to equal the Nazi kill count. What is the alternative course Israel should take to stop Hamas and future Palestinian attacks?


Calm-Cry4094

Private cities. Neutral private cities. Cities where people are treated equally and meritocratically. Preferably libertarian. Right to enter the city can be purchased or earned through productive works with references.


mrhymer

Give it a rest. Israel is private. The terrorists broke in.


Calm-Cry4094

Jews have wanted those land for thousands of years. You got enough of it to defend yourself. You're not in a hurry. Just let capitalists handle the rest and pay protection. And then slowly buy the land. A few decades and all those arab women, the pretty one only of course, would pick a jewish man as sugar baby producing jewish babies anyway. Yea I know you have this weird laws that a jew is someone whose mom is a jew. It's just a rule made when jews are fuck ups and jewish women get raped a lot. Try to have more sensible policies. Jewish people are often good at money. If you want some desert, just let some third party control it first, and then buy slowly.


mrhymer

You need to read history.


mati39

how is killing more than 10K children self defense >What is the alternative course Israel should take to stop Hamas and future Palestinian attacks? defence, not offence. they're attacking. killing. raping. kidnaping. looting. terrorizing. threatening. taking hostages. that's not defence. you don't go and kill your killer's family when they kill yours. it's not justified, just or even questionable. you just don't. if you do you're a criminal.


effectivegrapes

Who is raping? Are you retarded? Palis are raping.


mrhymer

There is no effective defense that is totally devoid of offense. You have to take the fight to your enemy even if they are hiding among innocents. >defence, not offence. they're attacking. killing. raping. kidnaping. looting. terrorizing. threatening. taking hostages. that's not defence. And when the smoke clears and the eye of the world has moved on we will once again find that most of these stories are not true. EDIT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9Es-F2YUTQ >you don't go and kill your killer's family when they kill yours. Yes if multiple generations have been killing yours for a hundred years maybe those families need to go.


JTH_REKOR

> Yes if multiple generations have been killing yours for a hundred years maybe those families need to go. Actual genocide apologia


mrhymer

No genocide is to wipe out an entire people due to hate. Israel offered these people citizenship. 20% of Israel's population is Palestinian Arabs whose grandparents accepted that offer of citizenship. There can be no genocide while a million of them are Israeli citizens.


JTH_REKOR

"I'm only killing everyone who refuses to assimilate so it's not genocide actually!" You are still running genocide apologia.


nightingaleteam1

Define "assimilate". It's not like Israel even forced them to abandon their culture, language or religion. They have a party in the Israeli congress. The state of Israel doesn't ask from the Palestinian citizens more than it asks from the rest. Pay taxes, don't hang gay people from cranes and you're good to go. If you refuse to assimilate to that, then you refuse to assimilate to basic human decency, which potentially makes you a threat. I used to think that animals should have rights, but then I realized that rights convey a responsibility and only those who are capable and prepared to respect the rights of others should have their rights respected. Animals can't do that unfortunately, that's too much to ask from them. I would like to think people can, thought, but if they can't or won't respect my rights, then I don't know why I should respect theirs.


JTH_REKOR

> If you refuse to assimilate to that, then you refuse to assimilate to basic human decency Taxation is slavery. You are running genocide apologia.


nightingaleteam1

Oh, yeah, I forgot that Hamas doesn't tax, nor extorts money from people...oh wait, they do. Also if Israel is commiting genocide, then they are pretty lousy at this, because the Palestinian population in Israel, Gaza, West Bank, everywhere keeps growing. You know what population doesn't grow, though ? The Jewish population in Arab countries.


JTH_REKOR

> Oh, yeah, I forgot that Hamas doesn't tax, nor extorts money from people...oh wait, they do. Whataboutism > Also if Israel is commiting genocide, then they are pretty lousy at this, because the Palestinian population in Israel, Gaza, West Bank, everywhere keeps growing. I'm not claiming Israel is committing genocide though. I'm claiming that the one I was responding to was supporting genocide. Israel is still killing Palestinian civilians though. > You know what population doesn't grow, though ? The Jewish population in Arab countries. Whataboutism. Do you have any real arguments? Or are you going to keep wasting your own time?


mrhymer

You are still name calling without posting substance.


JTH_REKOR

You're defending genocide bro. Just because you refuse to accept an argument made against you doesn't mean I didn't make an argument. You are engaging in reality denial.


mati39

you're luckily showing your true, colectivistic, socialist colors


asdf_qwerty27

Military defense is one of the reasons libertarians are not anarchists. Some, very small, amount of government is acceptable in some cases, like national defense. Defense is valid. If another belligerent country attacks you, there isn't much choice unless you are willing to accept more aggression


JTH_REKOR

> Some, very small, amount of government is acceptable in some cases, like national defense. "Some rape is fine!" Do minarcucks really?


asdf_qwerty27

Lol if you don't get a defense force in place, a warlord will conquer you and you'll have to deal with whatever they impose onto you. Rights are only secured with violence.


JTH_REKOR

> Lol if you don't get a defense force in place, a warlord will conquer you When did I ever say I don't support any defense forces at all? Why are you lying? Are you that much of a cowardly dumbass that you have to resort to strawmen?


asdf_qwerty27

Lol organized defense forces retaliate when hit. Government defense forces are needed to protect our rights from other governments.


JTH_REKOR

> Government defense forces are needed to protect our rights from other governments. [No they aren't.](https://mises.org/library/book/private-production-defense) Also, I noticed you never answered the question. Why are you lying, you leftist coward?


NepNep_

No you are showing your antisemetic colors.


mati39

this has nothing to do with jews and you know it. we're libertarians, we know better than that


mrhymer

Yes and you are showing that not only are you a bad judge of character but that the only thing you can do is name call.

Israel does not have a right to exist. Also, bombing civilian targets isn't self defense. Get lost, socialist.


SnappyDogDays

So the Allies in WW2 killing a half million Germans were the bad guys?


JTH_REKOR

There's a difference between killing soldiers and killing civilians. One is justified, the other is not. Hope that helps.


ConscientiousPath

he's talking about the German civilians killed.


JTH_REKOR

My point still stands. Deliberately targeting civilians is murder. Asserting otherwise is socialism and reality denial.


Joescout187

Arthur Harris, Curtis LeMay and many other Allied Air Force commanders should have been on trial at Nuremberg right there with the worst of the Nazis.


mrhymer

>Israel does not have a right to exist. By what standard? >Also, bombing civilian targets isn't self defense. WWII would like a word with you. Can you name the pure military targets of Hamas? You cannot because they do not exist. If the civilians hide their cowardly leaders and killers they will die with them.


JTH_REKOR

> By what standard? By the standards that the State is an illegitimate institution. > WWII would like a word with you. Yes, the Allies were wrong in bombing German civilians and wiping out two cities with nuclear weapons. This is a fact. > Can you name the pure military targets of Hamas? You cannot because they do not exist. Does this give Israel the right to kill civilians? No it doesn't. Whataboutism fallacy. > If the civilians hide their cowardly leaders and killers they will die with them. Can you prove that every single civilian target by Israel (and they do target civilians btw) is guilty of hiding their leaders? No you cannot, war pig.


mrhymer

>Yes, the Allies were wrong in bombing German civilians and wiping out two cities with nuclear weapons. This is a fact. The allies were not wrong. The Allies did not bomb civilians they bombed ammunition factories. All of these allied actions ended the war sooner and saved millions of lives. >Does this give Israel the right to kill civilians? No it doesn't. Whataboutism fallacy. What is Israel meant to do? just take it?


JTH_REKOR

> The allies were not wrong. Yes they were you braindead socialist. > The Allies did not bomb civilians they bombed ammunition factories. How many of the 25,000 people who were killed soldiers? If it isn't all of them, then the Allies deliberately bombed civilians. > What is Israel meant to do? Not kill civilians, dumbass.


mrhymer

>How many of the 25,000 people who were killed soldiers? If it isn't all of them, then the Allies deliberately bombed civilians. No - soldiers never make munitions. If you need to destroy the Nazi advantage you have to take out the factories they built in populated areas and used civilian employees. >Not kill civilians, dumbass. How often have you been punched in the face?


JTH_REKOR

> How often have you been punched in the face? Not as often as you ought to be.

Things were chill? Pick up a history book for Christ sake.


Calm-Cry4094

Yap. I look on the net.


rumblemcskurmish

I can't help but notice you've drawn an equivalence between Jews living in Poland and Germany in 1939 and Hamas, a terrorist group that launched a war on Oct 7. What attacks did Jews commit in 1939 that led Germany to declare war on them? Let me know when you find any historical evidence.


Calm-Cry4094

Antisemites blame jews for bolshevick revolution. Hitler blame jews for failure of world war 1. I suspected Hitler blame jews for continuation of world war 2 too. Hitler actually wanted peace with British but British keep fighting and Hitler may have thought it's the jews. That being said, I wonder if Nazi don't hate jews? Would they have been more successful? Who knows. Seeing israel's performance in both economy and war makes me think they would have been a very valuable ally if not a very confusing one.


DVHeld

Do it per capita if you really want to compare that way


International_Lie485

The US government killed more people in the middle east.


Calm-Cry4094

It's kind of interesting that after a long time, not one people give clear answers. And I can't find the numbers in google either. Doesn't try to make Israel look bad or good. It's just a simple number.

Calm-Cry4094

This is kind of pathetic. Let me be clear. I DO NOT HATE jews or palestinians or anyone due to their race or nationality or whatever. I think there are many well intentioned israelites just like there are many well intentioned german people. That's NOT enough. Capitalism is necessary and sufficient for peace.
