    Not a Jewish state, a Zionist state. A Jewish state would follow the Mosaic Covenant. They wouldn’t covet their neighbor’s property (Palestinian’s land) They wouldn’t kill (genocide). They wouldn’t take the name of God in vein by attributing their horrible actions to their god. They wouldn’t steal the land and houses from people. They wouldn’t bear false witness against their neighbor by calling Palestinians terrorists for simply not giving up when their land is being stolen. A Jewish state might not be that bad, a Zionist state, on the other hand, is a fascist state. #Gaza #Genocide #Fascism #Netanyahu #Zionism #FreePalestine

      Jews never agree on anything unanimously. We joke in Judaism that every small town has at least two synagogues, because of this

      But as States go, you only have one full of Zionist assholes. Because the Jews in the other side are the ones that dont think there is a place for genocide, settler colonialism, and ethno-States

      For this reason, there cannot be a Jewish State.

    Netanyahu was going to be put in prison for life after being convicted on corruption charges before he let the October attack happen and then declared martial law.

    He should be hung upside down and shot a million times

    Imagine the lack of self-reflection to call someone a barbarian while committing genocide to steal more land from Palestine. I can’t apprehend the confusion of thought necessary to think this way without starting with some blunt force trauma to the noggin.

      Didn’t many leaders in Europe come out and say they’re not going to arrest him when he visits?

      Europe is just whispering to tell him they’re fine with whatever he does. It’s not just a single man’s self-reflection anymore when he’s been told there will not be any consequences of his actions.

      There’s no self-reflection at all.

      To him, he’s not committing “genocide”, he’s “protecting his people from terrorists”.

        It’s always been an excuse for avoiding his corruption trial, I wouldn’t ascribe him any sort of noble motivation.

    I swear the nation of israel is trying to go down with the ship that is the trump administration.

    No nation, or organization should be able to get away with murdering hundreds of thousands of civilians just because they want their land.

      Yeah, well, that’s why Prejudice and Racism isn’t just presuming bad things about people and acting worse towards them due to their ethnicity, it’s also presuming good things about people and acting better towards them due to their ethnicity - in both cases you’re presuming some are better than others based on things which bare no relation to the worth and character of an individual such as race, gender, sexual orientation and so on.

      Just because somebody is a Jew does not mean they’re better or worse than anybody else - it’s their actions and what they support that should guide our judgement of an individual, not something they were born with.

      Don’t take this badly, but all this time you’ve been Prejudiced (and one might even say a Racist) even though you probably thought that wasn’t the case (I suspect you believed it was the contrary, even) because it manifested in you assuming good things about people from specific ethnicities and treating them better than others rather than as negative presumptions and treatment (though by assuming some people are, due to their ethnicity, better than others and treating them accordingly, you are actually negatively discriminating against everybody else), and what you’re seeing now, clear as day, is that the bad people within an ethnicity whom you judged better than others purely based on ethnicity, have weaponized that “positive” Racism of yours and of others like you into political and social capital to let them do the same kind of thing as the Nazis did, with impunity and even support from people who if they weren’t prejudiced would’ve judged them more fairly (something which might very well have stopped this Genocide from ever happening).

      The best posture, IMHO, is to try and not be prejudicial towards people no matter what their ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation and so on are, and that includes the kind of prejudice made up of positive presumptions.

        I’m… not racist? I’m also not reading all of this. You make a lot of assumptions for someone that read three sentences.

          You openly stated you have expectations on people based on their ethnicity.

          At the very least that’s Prejudice.

          It doesn’t take that many words to spot something when people are open about it. For example you can spot a Nazi from a mere two words, the “Heil” and the “Hitler” (for avoidance of doubt I’m not calling you a Nazi).

          The rest of my post is really a more general point about how even supposedly “positive” Prejudices are in various ways negative.

          Best to avoid having expectations on people you don’t know personally based on their ethnicity, even “positive” ones.

      Why? The Jews of Israel and the Jews of the Holocaust are in large part wildly unrelated and for the most part camp survivors spoke out against Israel rather coming out for it.

      It’s very effective propaganda on their part because most people can’t be bothered to learn facts.

      There’s assholes everywhere. A religion, ethnicity, origin, gender, sexual orientation has nothing to do with it.

      An asshole is gonna be an asshole.

        The thing is, most people in a genocide-supporting time, place and group support genocide. So humans are mostly assholes, by that definition.

        I don’t know if OP meant people who happen to be Jews or Netanyahu specifically, though.

      I wouldn’t say it’s cheating. The guy is without a doubt fiscally conservative but holds some social liberal values.

        As a “Dipper” since about 15/16 and someone who is opposed with all of their might to anymore Con or Lib Governments until other parties have a chance to try, I am cheating. haha

        But jokes aside, The man seems to have a head on his shoulders and heart in his chest so I don’t feel bad about the vote as long as my local MP isn’t a shit heel.
