My family are Israeli-Arabs. Thanks for the laugh about living in peace. I'm guessing you've never been to an Arab village in Israel before. They are treated like third class citizens. But, that is nothing compared to what is happening in Gaza. These racist morons are joining the army too? I pray for Palestine.

Um, are you unaware of how Twitter works? If you reread the article, you'll realize that the comparison is between the jarring nature of the "selfies" with violent rhetoric in the text. It's like me posting a photo of my adorable puppy next to a post saying "death to all so and sos." It's not what you expect. It's all

It is so hard to come up against your biases and change them. I went from uncritically pro Israel to being pro-palestinian rights (I'm an American Jew) after becoming good friends with several exchange students from the Middle East and having thoughtful discussions with them about the conflict and culture. I was for

I'm not going to pretend I know a lot about this issue but is this really shocking? Jezebel likes to pick isolated incidents of teens posting dumb stuff on social media and then declare that all or most teens are hateful douches. I'm sure you can find examples of teens saying all kinds of dumb stuff on the internet,

To be fair, I have spoken to Arabs who say the same things about Jews. And these are well-educated Arabs who went to top universities in Germany, France, the UK. Yet, they still told me with a straight face that AIDS was brought into Egypt by Jews, that 9/11 was an inside job of the MOSAD, etc etc. It just boggles the

I have a good friend who is Palestinian-Jordanian. His grandfather was of the generation of people who were ousted from their homelands and lost their possessions and industries, forced to struggle economically and culturally elsewhere essentially as refugees. My friend was virulently anti-Semitic when he first came

thank you. I keep wondering when someone will say "Teens are ALL like this"
Teens, however, are not in the position of making policy. And, at this time, those making policy, at least in Israel, are willing to stop. Hamas, on the other hand, are not.

I understand the point you are making, but just saying that "tweets from the other side of the aisle aren't much less violent" and a link to just one example is blatantly ridiculous. You're post is biased and I think its irresponsible of you to post these types of twitter posts without spending a modicum of energy on

This is the dumbest post in the history of Jezebel. Teens are idiots. They do idiotic things. To highlight the bullshit ramblings a few fucking morons posted only creates a more vitriolic situation. You know people are going to read this as "Israelis hate Arabs" when that is a lie. Israelis do not hate Arabs. In fact,

Riiiiiight

go back to Reddit, goon.

but i think most people know this is just too fucking extreme. Like all the Palestinians tweeting "#HitlerWasRight" had some support, but many Palestinians condemned them. rational adults know genocide is not a solution.

Nicholas Cage and Earthlings.

You know, everybody gets worked up about parents violating the First Amendment. When I was a kid nobody cared about the 3rd Amendment, to keep those soldiers from sleeping in my room at night.

Yep, he said in the video that it's made for this use.

Cody Oakes, 25, an operations manager for J.P. Morgan, had been ready to walk out the door with a duffel bag in his hand to go to football practice. (He plays quarterback and wide receiver for the Bellingham Bulldogs, a semi-pro team.) He'd noticed heavily armed police in camouflage marching down the road.

I'm a straight woman who feels like no one's attracted to me. I "peaked" over ten years ago according to men. At least men don't depreciate like fucking cars. Whyyyy do men think women are never lonely, rejected, ignored?! Is it because the "dime pieces" are literally the only ones on your radars?

Holy shit. Please keep defending yourself. You have a great argument.

So, I count 4 sentences. Let me guess: you only read 3?

This is absolutely disgusting. I've gone a long time pretending this shit didn't exist, and that was perfectly fine until it started getting thrown in my fucking face. This has gone too far. Now I'm going to have to explain to my children that OWN is an actual TV network.
