Economist John Kenneth Galbraith most vividly described it as the “horse and sparrow” theory: “If you feed the horse enough oats, some will pass through to the road for the sparrows.”

There is a pay wall. The headline from the translated version reads
Joe Chialo on anti-Semitism: “We touch painful points”
Berlin's Senator for Culture Joe Chialo explains why in the future he will only award funding to artists who recognize Israel's right to exist.
If you're not willing to take the time to point out the mistakes then I don't know what to say.
I don't think we need to have any more interactions. I don't think you're going to change your mind and I'm certainly not going to.
A ruling of genocide is a stain that Israel—which weaponizes the Holocaust to justify its brutalization of the Palestinians—would find hard to remove. It would undercut Israel’s insistence that Jews are eternal victims. It would shatter the justification for Israel’s indiscriminate killing of unarmed Palestinians and construction of the world’s largest open air prison in Gaza, along with the occupation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem. It would sweep away the immunity to criticism enjoyed by the Israel lobby and its Zionist supporters in the US, who have successfully equated criticisms of the “Jewish State” and support for Palestinian rights with anti-Semitism.
Israel never withdrew from the Oslo Accords.
**For more than two decades, Benjamin Netanyahu has played a central role in the failure of the US-sponsored Oslo negotiations process and the two-state solution that it’s predicated on. As he boasted to a group of Israeli settlers in a candid moment caught on video in 2001 following his first term as prime minister (1996-1999): "I de facto put an end to the Oslo Accords.” https://imeu.org/article/netanyahu-putting-an-end-to-the-oslo-accords-the-two-state-solution
Obviously the two entities weren’t equal in the sense of military power, economical development, moral values, state institutions, foreign relations. But in what sense was it unfair?
You answered your own question. "Obviously the two entities weren’t equal in the sense of military power, economical development, moral values, state institutions, foreign relations."
The same argument can be made about the debates concerning the ‘two-states solution’ that was offered in Oslo. This offer should be seen for what it is: partition under a different wording.
What’s wrong with that?
What's wrong is that it's not an actual two state solution because
Israel would not only decide how much territory it was going to concede but also what would happen in the territory it left behind.”
It would not be a free and independent Palestinian state if the Israelis are still in control. "This offer should be seen for what it is: partition under a different wording."
However, when Benjamin Netanyahu became Israeli prime minister for the first time in 1996, he opposed the Oslo Accords, and the process was stopped.
That’s completely false.

I have used Jpost, Haaratz, and Mondoweiss. All of them are pretty good sources. I think people just don't wanna hear about the Houthis
Having read several of your replies I don't think we will profit from interacting with each other. I will leave this up so that you can read it and then I will block you.
OK so you may not like the bias, but that doesn't make them a garbage source. I am a socialist, so it makes sense I post socialist leaning media. If you don't like it perhaps you should block me.
I absolutely have strong pro-Palestinian and anti-Israeli bias. Israel is a settler colonial state that practises apartheid. I don't see how you could be in favour of that. If you don't like my posts perhaps you should block me.
Well they're quoting an article published in the New York Times.
Israel is losing its war against the Palestinian resistance in Gaza, senior commanders have told The New York Times.
“After more than 100 days of war, Israel’s limited progress in dismantling Hamas has raised doubts within the military’s high command about the near-term feasibility of achieving the country’s principal wartime objectives: eradicating Hamas and also liberating the Israeli hostages still in Gaza,” the newspaper reported on Saturday.
As for electronic intifada being a garbage source. Perhaps you'd like to explain why you think that. Please provide instances where they have falsified information.
I don't know. I have posted a few articles regarding the Houthis, mostly from Israeli media sources and they always get downvoted. I continue to post them because I think it's important news and could lead to a widening of the conflict in the region.
With its decision to attack, the Biden administration appears to have opened itself up to a geopolitical checkmate by the Houthis. Escalating the strikes against the rebels will likely bring more shipping disruptions — potentially counterproductive to mitigating economic consequences — and risk a full-blown regional war. Negotiating or submitting to the demands of a nonstate militia group from one of the poorest countries in the world would be seen by many as a U.S. surrender and would boost the Houthis’ newfound popularity.
Given the lack of mainstream media coverage it's a very good start.
