The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

If I lived in Israel, I would find the constant threat of violence intolerable.

Exactly. And as much as I could see people living in Israel or Palestine or Syria or Jordan or Gaza or any of the other places in that region longing for a homeland and wanting to create one there, the constant threat of violence would force me to move elsewhere to have security for my family.

Hence my apparently controversial comment up thread to have a multinational plan for people to emigrate from the region and find safety and security elsewhere in the world. Leave the warmongers behind and let those who genuinely want to live in peace and safety leave.

I don't approve of genocide, but it seems you're saying there is no option if you aren't willing to live with the violence.

I was thinking the same thing. I am convinced that Al has absolutely no interest in genocide, but that seems to be the conclusion from his comments.
