  • Yes agreed.

    I think I know where you’re confused. Here’s the original claim that begat this thread,

    It’s not controversial to say that the US / NATO helped trigger the war in Ukraine.

    The claim is about an opinion being generally accepted. To confirm or refute the claim requires secondary sources, since the claim is about opinions.

    If the claim were simply,

    US / NATO helped trigger the war in Ukraine.

    Then the claim is concerned directly with what triggered the war in Ukraine. To confirm or refute the claim, you’d benefit more from primary sources (including journalism, as you mentioned.)











  • The opposite, granting Palestinians citizenship allows them to potentially control the government.

    Compare that to any point in our lifetime, where Israel has been their defacto government: Palestinians must report each birth, each change of address to a “foreign” government. If they want to leave their country, they must seek permission from the “foreign” government. If they want to visit their family across town, they must present identification to a “foreign” government.

    Citizenship ends apartheid.
