A top Hamas political official told The Associated Press the Islamic militant group is willing to agree to a truce of five years or more with Israel and that it would lay down its weapons and convert into a political party if an independent Palestinian state is established along pre-1967 borders.
Nope, I’m done with this conversation. I’m a racist bigot with no compassion for the poor terrorists. You got me. You win
It ain’t about winning. I told you, I do not believe that I can or will change your mind. We are miles down a comment chain, no one but us will read this. This is me wanting to understand you. Do you not want to just talk about what you believe? You gotta be yelling and arguing about it? Arguing over. Tell me what you believe and why. I’m asking you to just calmly explain.

I’m not interested in him or his ideas. I’m interested in you and your ideas and how you reconcile them. I understand the ideology but you are not ideology. Your a person with complex and conflicting ideas

His ideas match mine completely but you aren’t interested because you cannot respond to him with insults so you want me to try to explain them with my poor cogency.
No conflict here, maybe just poor communication skills
His ideas do not match yours completely because you are two separate human beings. I am interested with your ideology but in this context I am interested in how you as a person came to this ideology. I’m curious of your life’s context that has led you here and he cannot tell me that.
I do not want to hear you explain your ideas because I want to understand your ideas, I want to hear them so that I can understand how you interpreted that ideology and then ask questions. Once again, not to prove to you that your wrong but I want to know how you reconcile those ideas with other basic ones. I cannot get that information from him. Only from you.
I got the insults out of the way, the argument is over. Now I just have questions.
