Navel gazing over what’s known as a ‘non-falsifiable proposition’ is about as useful as wondering ‘how high is up?’

There is such a thing as a dumb question after all.

It is a highly relevant question. Another would be, 'When someone repeatedly expresses a desire to destroy you (e.g. Death to America), should you believe them or just ignore them?').

Non-falsifiable propositions are claims, beliefs, hypotheses etc. that cannot be proved wrong by experimentation or observable evidence. I didn't make any claims / hypotheses etc. I asked a question. As this question has potential existential implications for at least Israel, and probably many other nations, it is a very valid question to reflect upon. This is in many ways an opinion site, and I was asking for opinions.
