"Demonization" isn't going to stop me or my neighbors. You may "demonize" us all you want. Your "demonization" can't stop us from our work as it holds no relevancy to our thoughts.
The default "killing" of us is not listed in your terms. You have given me a simple proposition: leave or be killed. I'll choose the former and see you suffer for it.

Demonization can cause support for you to be very limited. And can bring tons of aid to your oppressor. This can't mean good news for you.
Even when you see your family suffering greatly from being removed? I'm figuring that some of this suffering will lead to angry retaliations.
If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.

We didn't need "support" before you came. We do not need it now.
It can when that aid must travel across our lands to arrive.
Since that is the whole reason behind our struggle, it only makes us stronger.
"Angry retaliations" are the product of your standards, not ours. Emotions do not drive us.
Emotions don't drive you. Does it completely discredit one who is driven by emotions? It's not hard for me to understand someone acting out of desperation. I don't agree with the killing these actions may include but I can understand where they are coming from. It does not take away my concern for them. Does it negate the your righteousness if your strong will failed you from time to time?

No. Our actions hold no relevance to that. What discredits one who is driven by emotions is when their emotions contradict their reason.
Are you talking about how their emotions and reason look to you, from the outside? Are you saying your own psyche is the accurate instrument of measurement, here?
"The opposite of a fact is falsehood, but the opposite of one profound truth may very well be another profound truth." ~ Niels Bohr
Are you talking about how their emotions and reason look to you, from the outside? Are you saying your own psyche is the accurate instrument of measurement, here?
Just the opposite. I'm telling you that their psyche is the accurate instrument of measurement here.
It's completely normal that emotions and reason are at odds with one another, within a person, and for rational intelligent systems-reasons. Because you don't see the "reasons" does not mean the reasons do not exist.
You said: "What discredits one who is driven by emotions is when their emotions contradict their reason."
If you took the time to listen to and comprehend the emotions and reasoning of the other point of view, you would come to understand the situation and the "contradiction" would "cease to exist". The imagined contradiction does not discredit anyone. It reveals to us that the process is not complete and resolved. It shows problem solving is required. To recognise such is fair and balanced and quite different than implying another is wrong or flawed in their processes while dodging personal awareness and accountability.

The reasons certainly do exist! I never claimed an emotion cannot exist counter to the reality that creates it. What I claimed is that a man who acts upon an emotion in the face of a contradictory reality will typically realize that contradiction in the amplification of his own misery.

Angelica, the man who tells you that he loves everyone and will kill to prove it is a man full of very real contradictions. The soldier who tells you he hates terrorists but resorts to their methods is a man full of very real contradictions. The militant who tells you he is acting in self-defense and will kill an unarmed infant to "save" himself is a man full of very real contradictions. The man who tells you he respects life while he destroys it is a fool.
So, no, I will not defend a behavior motivated by an emotion that attempts to contradict reality. While I can understand it, I will never excuse it.

Okay, I'm with you on that. As long as we are keeping it well in mind that each point of view is 100% valid and the measure of something not working, is seen by he/she for whom it is not working.
Example: When I was mentally ill people were filled with all kinds of claims that they knew what was best for me while they invalidated my own inner understanding of what was best for me. Those around me felt entitled to judge my misery. All they really informed me of was their own ignorance of what was best for me. They gave themselves permission to judge me and my illnesses and their judgments firmly pointed fingers back to them. Their judgments were wrong. The understandings and the true assessment of my misery could only be gauged from within, or by the objective experts who sought understanding and not agenda protection.

I agree. I certainly don't excuse the inexcusable. I guess it comes down to whether our own actions are constructive--are they working for US?? Are we trying to blame our OWN misery on the other guy?
For example, to reason with an emotionally upset person does not work. We actually seek something that will not happen, and many times, when we set our own selves up for such failure, we are more likely to blame the other guy in our own ignorance. And the cycles repeat.

god just confirmed it...i'm supposed to have the land you live on. i swear, man! i was out burning a bush and it was told to me by god herself that she created that piece of land you currently live on all for me...and now it's time fo rme to have it...i even wrote it in a book, so you know it's true!
plz have all your things out by the middle of next month, unless they're nice things, then you can leave them...regardless, be out by the 15th or i will have to force you to leave in self-defense.
That's interesting, I thought I was the one who was taking YOUR land?! After all, you keep giving up pieces of your land to make us happy…and yet…we keep demanding that you give us MORE of that land while we blow up your cafes and nightclubs with suicide bombers! Dumb Zionist, you're all confused again. It's never been about your land…it's about driving you into the sea and wiping you off the map. So quit acting like you own the rights to an expansionist policy, because that's never been what you're about, that's what WE'RE about. That's our gig. Get your own. After all, who has it been that's attacked you from every angle multiple times throughout the history of mankind?!!? That's right…it's been us trying to WIPE YOU OFF any land. Well…that…and destroying an entire race of people simply based upon their religous and political standing. You Zionists…from "Israel"…actually give up land that you believe is yours just to appease us. You're actually conceding land in order to stop the violence, and you're willing to sacrifice something that you believe is yours, and give it to us, to stop all this bloodshed…BUT GUESS WHAT?!!?…WE DON'T CARE!!! Cuz we're gonna take all that you have anyway!!!

Please. If your problem with a war is how people view it or report it, something is very wrong. Regardless, you're preaching to the choir on this message board and you know it. If any view gets overreported here it's the Hezbollah apologist view (though certainly the Israeli apologist view is also here).
If your fight is one in which both sides should be treated with contempt for their evils, I'll support you in that fight. If your fight is one in which one side is treated with contempt and another is defended based on contradictory moral principles, I will not participate in that lie.
