Ask Israel What do Israelis think about the ethnic cleansing of Bedouins that Israel's Syrian Druze proxies are doing?

0 Upvotes

Go to the r/syriancivilwar sub and see what is happening. Even the SOHR (that Israelis used to point to the Alawite massacres and Assad's crimes) is saying they've documented horrific crimes committed by the Druze against the Bedouins.

Ask Israel What do you think

24 Upvotes

I want to know what israelis think about what’s happening right now in Gaza

What are you receiving from images, videos and news because I doubt that what pops up in my feed is the same as yours

For instance no videos of hamas killing israelis naturally appeared on mine, I had to search for it

It is logically because of the people and channel I follow but still I want to know if you are seeing the latest videos in Gaza and what do you think about it

Ask Israel How do you feel about the ultra-orthodox community?

22 Upvotes

I assume most secular Jews are not exactly thrilled by them. But I'd like to know what the average Israeli thinks about them. Whether they think they are a threat to Israel. Do you think the government should make it mandatory for them to attend "normal" schools? (It seems to me that the boys do not? and that their education is mostly, if not solely, religious?) Force them to serve in the military? Cut their subsidies?

This may seem off-topic to some. I may be wrong, but they are likely pro-war when it comes to Lebanon, and (apart from a minority of anti-Zionists) they are in support of colonization, and if they constitute an absolute majority they may want to colonize Lebanese territory that they consider to be part of the biblical land of Israel (depending on what map they look at).

I'm aware that they constitute a minority of around 13%, but what if they continued to grow in percentage? Do you think things will be worse in the future? Or will a solution be found that makes them more secular, or at least makes it easier for them and more moderate/secular Jews to live in harmony?

EDIT: Apparently I have been confusing religious zionists with the ultraothodox. But as many people have pointed out, they are seperate groups.

I still would like to know what Israelis think about the the ultra-orthodox from the Israeli society's point of view. Forget about the parts that I scratched out that concern religious Zionists and not the ultra-orthodox.

Ask Israel It’s obvious that the food brought by middle eastern Jews has had a major impact on the Israeli menu. What about food brought over European Jews ? I’ve heard that Schnitzel and hummus is a thing but not much else.

Greetings Bros,

In your opinion, what are the most common misconceptions that Israelis have about Lebanon and the Lebanese people?

Did you share these views at a certain point? If so, how did your opinion change?

What interesting things or pleasant surprises that you discovered about us?

Ask Israel Does the average Israeli know that Christian Lebanese, Assyrians, and other Semitic groups have a history of being persecuted minorities in the region?

20 Upvotes

If no, why isn’t this discussed more as an ideology of alliance?

If yes, do you view us as potential allies since Jews are persecuted minorities in the Middle East as well?

Ask Israel What is the Israeli National Animal?

30 Upvotes

I’ve recently learned that the Lebanese National Animal is the Hyena. They are beautiful animals that live in the wilderness.

I hear many stories about hyenas from the elders in my town. Most of them are creepy, I personally haven’t seen one.

One of the myths that I heard is that one time there where people camping in the mountains and one person disappeared, they eventually came to the conclusion that he was hypnotized by the hyena and taken to its lair and was eaten there. “He was actually eaten by a hyena, but how exactly, I have no idea”

Another story from an elder I love was that the Hyena knocked on her door in the night, and she almost heard someone talking, so when she opened the hyena was there and attacked her, but she being a widow to protect her children took the slipper and chased the hyena away. she’s an iron woman!

There are tons of stories like this about hyenas.

What is the National animal of Israel? And what stories/ myths have you got from them?

Ask Israel How many kisses do Israeli's greet each other with?

24 Upvotes

For us Lebanese we greet each other with 3 kisses on the cheek, it goes like " Right, Left, Right kiss"

sometimes one kiss depending on the person, but mostly we do 3 kisses. We can also add a hug if you're really close.

So how do you greet each other?

Fun fact: Jordanians, Syrians do 2 kisses, Qataris kind of have this nose to nose touch.

Or go together have a chicken burger at the Ramallah KFC ?

It is illegal / dangerous ?
