    Actual headline from the Wall Street Journal:

    Blast Goes Off at Orthodox Church Campus in Gaza

    “The Israeli military said it is looking into the incident”

      Although Palestine is majority Muslim, I don’t there’s really been too much conflict with Christians right? Israel has discriminated against and killed Arab Christians in the past including one of the journalists a few months ago

        No, I understand that the Palestinian Christians have very good relations with their Muslim siblings. They have a solidarity that extends beyond religion as you might imagine.

          People acting like the middle east was locked in a vicious, kill on sight style religious war for thousands of years must also take deep pride in nobody in their family tree having ever left their home town in Ohio.

          And of course their paid daily editorial column in the NYT / WSJ

          Just gonna leave this “bullshit religious pretexts being used as a cause of armed conflict vs 50 gallon barrels of petrichemical products exported in the last year” dot correlation chart here

          No, no reason in particular

          I mean with Palestinian Muslims. The omission in OP’s headlines makes me think they want the audience to believe that Muslims are targeting Christians but I don’t think that’s plausible when both groups are being oppressed by Israel, so the answer is likely the other way around

        It was probably better to be a Palestinian Christian under the PLO than it is under Hamas but yeah Israel also discriminate against Palestinian Christians and deny them access to holy sites

      It is a common symbol for all Muslim. It is the testimony:

      لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّٰه مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّٰه

      And green is the color of the paradise garden.

            The US has the highest private and the highest public per capita healthcare expenditure in the world.

            The healthcare, however, is shit. For much of the same reasons the F-35 is shit.

      Unification? Almost impossible. Integration? Almost definitely. The DPP can’t change the fact that economic integration is going to happen whether they like it or not. Taiwan is, by geography, always going to be economically tied to China.

      China’s goal is simply to avoid a Cuban Missile Crisis in Taiwan. That’s it. They’re happy to cooperate with the KMT on integration without unification. They were perfectly happy with the status quo of the Taiwan Strait being Chinese territorial waters (with two interpretations…).

        also the KMT have consistently made efforts to avoid an escalation like that with China. They don’t want to be in the middle of a proxy war because they don’t want their home to become a battlefield
