    If you want to stop the ethnic cleansing in Gaza, you have to assure the Israelis - even the most crazy, rabid ones - that you won’t let another Holocaust happen again.

    You can't convince them of that. They are too brainwashed and paranoid to ever believe you.

    And in the end they still want their land. They will never compromise on what they have brainwashed themselves to believe is their land.

    You can't reason with a zealot.

    @Twentyfirst, Jews also lived in that area long ago. They also migrated and were displaced.

    Why wouldn't they want to go back to their ancestral land?

    You want "ancestral ties" to apply to Palestinians but not to Jews?

    Going back isn't the problem. Kicking others off the land and blocking them from having a viable state is the problem.

    Israel refuses Palestine statehood and keeps grabbing more and more land with the intent to grab all of it.

    This is like a guest who stays in your house and then takes over your house one room at a time until you live in the backyard in the doghouse.

    Palestinians are much more hospitable people than Jews or anyone else in the world. Levant is known for hospitality and being welcoming. They have super high morals and purity standards . It's bred into them at birth. Look it up or ask around

    That's not the same thing as development.

    Being indoctirnated to be kind like a robot is not serious development.

    How welcoming are they to gays, mouthy women, or atheists?

    Even the major terrorism examples like suicide bombings or plane hijacking’s only showed up after they had already been occupied for decades btw.

    That's fine, but it doesn't change their situation and their low level currently. Yes, Israel contributes greatly to making their level low. But also, it was never high to begin with. The whole Middle East is a swarm of low development, period. The only reason Israel has high development is because most of them are Europeans.

    In the end European development simply trumps Arab development. There's no way around that. Regardless of the morals or reasons.

    Palestinians have lower moral development, even though Israel is doing ethnical cleansing and war crimes, and Palestinians have suffered great injustice.

    Just because Israel does nasty stuff does not make Palestinians morally developed.

    Palestinians cannot have high moral development because their survival is too difficult and their level of education and infrastructure too low. Which is why terrorism is their only option.

    @Raze You are consistently failing to see that these two groups of people have different levels of development and civilization. One is higher and one is lower. This is not merely my opinion. This will be true regardless of whatever moral arguments or historical facts you present. And the higher will conquer the lower. This is simply what's going to happen regardless of whatever you feel about it or how unjust it is.

    Believe it or not, as bad as Israel is, they do not hijack airplanes nor invade Palestine in rampages shooting everyone in sight in the head. And their intelligence agencies DO take measures to avoid civilian casualities when planning assassinations. Civilians still end up killed, but efforts are made. Palestinians make no such efforts and even target civilians to take hostage.

    My confusion was that when you said your hand is Absolute Truth, it is, right, but you are not aware of it RIGHT NOW, directly. You have that reference from the past (from awakening). 

    Funny enough, it's here RIGHT NOW, even when you think you're missing it.

    You need to stop thinking about getting back to it and just notice that it's always NOW. Rivet your attention on NOW, whatever NOW is.

    Like you know what an orgasm is, from the recall of having an orgasm, but you are not having one right now (I hope!)

    The difference though is that unlike an orgasm Absolute Truth is always happens, always here. You're looking for NOW. So it's paradoxical and nonsensical how you could be missing it. Yet you are in a sense. And in another sense you're not, since it's right here.

    You can recall your previous Awakening, or you can just focus on NOW and remind yourself that NOW is Absolute.

    Do you understand what's happening? Your mind is losing track of NOW as it tries to get somewhere special.

    To get back to Awakening you gotta stop trying to get somewhere and just focus on NOW like a motherfucker for a long time.

    NOW is Truth.

    It can take many Awakenings until the simplicity of it sinks in. The mind tries to avoid NOW by trying to go somewhere special or different.

    But doesnt USA get targeted by terrorists BECAUSE it supports Israel so much? If USA cut ties with Israel they would not even need to share intel because USA would stop being targeted so much by terrorists. Or is it too late for that?

    Yeah, but terrorists would still attack America for other reasons. American empire pisses people off on its own too.

    So you can be aware of absolute truth only after (not before) awakening even if you are not in that state now, right?

    Awakening IS the moment you realize what Absolute Truth is.

    Then you can drop in state but you still know what Truth is.

    Yes, without Awakening you don't have a reference experience for what the word Absolute means. You are like a guy who hasn't experienced an orgasm. Awakening is the orgasm. You don't need to be in constant orgasm to know what orgasm is. But you do need to have at least one.

    So you say when I look at my hand and there is a sense of self/I perceiving it, is still Absolute Truth?

    It is Absolute Truth but in that moment you aren't aware of it as such.

    Your money chest analogy applies well here.

    Yes, Being = Perception - Ego

    But notice, what is ego? Ego isn't really anything substantial. So perception is very close to Being. The only difference is a bit of extra awareness.

    With a bit of awareness perception becomes Being.
