Do you guys ever realize that the reason people automatically believe Israel would do something like this is because Israel has proven before that they'll do things such as this?
In alternate world:
Right-sing conspiracist publishes article entitled: "Palestinians collaborating with Tehran to detonate nuclear bomb on Tel Aviv, slaughter Israeli Jews."
Right-winger posts article on atlas with provocative title.
Article proved to be hoax, poster rightly mocked. criticized, etc.
Other right-wing poster whines: "but there's a reason why people believe this stuff, and it's because the Palestinians are terrible monsters etc. etc.
Sound about right?
Because, at the end of the day, if you fall for a hoax, and post said hoax in the internal board (not even in the Israel discussion board, because apparently this requires a new thread of it's own!) you should man up and take the mockery and the criticism. It also says something that hoaxes tend to get much more time of day when it comes this particular issue,. This is, in my opinion, very interesting, and should be studied further from a psychological perspective (ie is it really because of SCARY JEW/PALESTINIAN, or something else).
At least True Federalist is trying to change the subject to another important subject (namely, the under-discussed issue of water rights etc.) I dont think that requires a thread of it's own, and believe that the conspiracy theory aspect itself is of more interest, but that's ultimately just a difference of perspective. You, the idiot rot-brained hipster neckbeard from Manhattan on the other hand, have nothing to add, because you are nothing, you know nothing except for blathering trivialities on the level of the 2016 Presidential Discussion Board, which is very sad because International Discussion is one of the few boards remaining where non-stupid people discuss interesting issues, and really doesn't need intellectual non-entities like you invading. So if you and your hoax-posting bosom pal can just self-deport and make this board more readable, that would be much appreciated.
