Go to their website and read about their methods. You’re in for a laugh.

I am so close to waging a war on MBFC. Not a single one of them is actually an expert… And they think it’s a “strength” that they made up an unscientific system to rate things.

Seems like you have every right to be salty. All of this totally sucks!

If we can judge Hamas members who have probably lost family and dignity in the most terrible of ways on the hands of Israel, then we can also find it in our hearts to judge those people.

500 trucks used to go in on a daily basis. “Aid” that had to be painfully inspected by Israel has been far below that. In other words, Israel actually withheld aid from Gazans, despite “allowing it in”.

Edit: here is a good article that describes how less than 200 fet in every day despite a daily basic need for 500. On one day in January, only 30 crossed in.

You don’t have to be part of some online unit to spread propaganda. Maybe you just believe some of this outrageous stuff.

I don’t know. I guess just like your comment to me, it’s the way you conduct yourself here.

You mean my point being that Israel will not really leave Palestinians alone when Hamas is “eliminated” (good luck, BTW) given their incredibly long history of human rights violations, apartheid, land grabbing, and ethnic cleansing?

Seems more to me like you might be taking issues with these facts.

“Look at what you made me do!” says IDF soldier as he shoots an unarmed elderly woman despite her grandson waving a white flag right next to her.

Yeah you’re probably right.

Recently I’ve found them to be fascinating examples of indoctrination. I admit it’s more fun to watch others engage with them but sometimes I can’t help it.

Are you implying I don’t? Can I ask why you’d imply that?

Curious: how would you describe your educational system with how they teach Arabic vs English?

There are certainly problems with teaching it as a second language, but it’s still taught by UNRWA teachers (to at least one third of the kids there) from an early age.

I grew up in Jordan and the average young person will in most cases speak good English. It fades with older generations given how much their education sucked, but a large portion of people speak it. I’ve even been told that it was taught better in the 80’s than now.

Don’t think I’ve ever met anyone who doesn’t speak enough English to communicate with someone on the street except for my Grandma and she was basically illiterate.

What country are you from?

Ps: to answer the question specifically about Gaza, I don’t have any stats for that, but I know the UNRWA schools teach English

It’s all thanks to the English for colonizing us. Usually, the second language spoken is either English or French, depending on who this country celebrates its independence from.

I even was an English teacher in the Middle East at some point lol

Yes, English is taught in most Arab countries starting in Grade 1 all the way up to highschool. Almost every upper educational organization will offer students English 101 if they fail a placement test or need extra help.

The quicker Hamas is defeated and the war is over, the quicker the humanitarian crisis can be solved.

I think you are doing it to make it sound more like the Taliban for whom the word “madrasa” (and not “madaris”, but somehow you wanted the plural form) specifically means religious schools that indoctrinate children into political Islam. No one else tends to use the word to mean otherwise. Hamas doesn’t do that kind of stuff. Basically, education in Gaza is on par with the rest of the world. They have had excellent universities, they have had excellent medical centers that had to specialize in very specific types of injuries (thanks Israel!). The UNRWA school offer a normal education like any other in the Middle East (Arabic, English, Math, Science, and so on). There is nothing “madrasa” about it. And yet you chose to use that word.

Now, I don’t want to go around accusing, I just can’t help but think, why did this person choose to use a Arabic variety of the word “school” to describe Gazan schools and education? Is it just, *“omg look at me I speak Arabic, yalla bro!” or is it something else?

As their first language? You just need to speak it. I think English education is compulsory in schools in Gaza so I’d safely bet almost everyone speaks a medium to advanced level of English.

Bruh, “above our paygrade” is a prime example of denial, deflection, and appeal to authority.

So “trust me bro” then?

Madaris? Just call them schools like a normal person. Anyone seeking English in Gaza would call that a “school”. Kinda weird, why would you choose a different word for this? Flaunting your Arabic, or what?
