    Feel free to report antisemitic comments, but antizionism isn’t antisemitism and acting like it is is antisemitic and will net you a ban starting once this comment is posted.

    Reporting borderline stuff will not get you banned but as someone who had family at auschwitz I’m tired of blatant antisemitism in defense of a settler colonialist apartheid regime.

    Hall of shame:

      antizionism isn’t antisemitism

      👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

      Clap LOUDER for those at the back! This is exactly what my Palestinian friend helped elaborate to me, the single biggest confusion sowed by western Zionist supporting rags into masses.

      There’s a difference between antizionism and antisemitism. Just as there’s a difference between Israel and Jews.

      Blame Israel, it’s anti Israel. Blame the Jews, it’s antisemitism.

        The international community has shown to be Pro-Israeli and thus anti-Palestinian. The Palestinian Plan for Partition was a plan to peacefully split up British Palestine into a separate Jewish and Arab state, as well as Jerusalem becoming a free city. The plan gave 62% of the land to the Jewish community despite the Arabic population having twice the population. Obviously the Arab population rejected this plan on the basis that it violated the right to natuonal self-determination, and thus this perpetual conflict was born.
        Especially with the US being so obviously Pro-Israel and having virtually all power on the decision-making of the West, why would you think the Arab population would ever get fair treatment under an international “peacekeeping” mission?

      Go to hell you bloodthirsty pig. Slaughtering civilians in the streets and inside air raid sirens is not resistance, it’s inhuman.

        When you limit yourself to specific incidents, it’s easy to judge right and wrong. Over the course of years, though, neither side can claim the moral high ground.

        Overall, this is one of the most pointless, wasteful, and inhumane conflicts in human history.

          Personally, when dealing with two groups who claim the same land, I side with the one that’s been there the longest, not the one that shouldered it’s way in, demanded a room, and started shooting anyone who told them to leave.

          But the US kind of has a penchant for that.

        Killing - no matter the victim is inhuman.

        Believing one side has the right to kill while the other must take it, is pretty gross.

        “Slaughtering civilians in the streets” is precisely what the IDF does on the regular, just so you know. It’s hard to imagine any group of people would live under military occupation for 70+ years after being forced to leave their homes for refugee camps without the desire to fight for their freedom.

            Sorry, but I have been an advocate for Palestinian rights for years. I’m not just shilling out propaganda on the day of a massacre. As I type this, the confirmed death tolls have Israelis near 100 while Palestinian deaths are near double that. So if you want to start talking about massacres, just so far today Israel has caused more death, let alone the days, weeks, months, years and decades prior to today.

        Agreed. Which is why the IDF also needs to be eliminated.

        Both sides are and have been commiting atroscious acts against civilians and neither side can be excused for their inhuman actions.

        I am a realist. What do you think is going to happen to Palestine in the near future if both or any one of them escalates?

        The top comment in this thread is

        i want to wake up to a world without Israel

        This goading and dangerous rhetoric is spewed by the uniparty in reverse, i.e against Palestine right now.

        Nah, Russia is just another symptom of the broad-based rise in instability. Russia is making the most of it - and they are not alone. A few regimes are getting their shit sorted so that they can hunker down for the next few decades. Or not. Chaos is a ladder, after all.

    Israeli air raids have hit the Gaza Strip after Hamas announced the start of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood against Israel.

    The group running the besieged enclave says it has fired thousands of rockets towards Israel. Several casualties have been reported.

    “This is the day of the greatest battle to end the last occupation on earth,” Mohammed Deif, the Hamas military commander said, adding that 5,000 rockets were launched.

    What the fuck. Last occupation?

    Is that a deliberate anti-Ukraine statement or are they just completely clueless what’s happening outside their borders?

      Maybe it is a similar but different thing for Deif.

      Israel has occupied The Gaza strip for decades while Russia is invading Ukraine. Is kind of discounted by the occupation of Crimea but since that is in contest right now, maybe that’s not so much an occupation anymore but a war.

      You’re definitely from reddit if your being pedantic about what a military Commander is saying to rally his cause. “Actshually there are other occupations going on”. Also are you really trying to make this about Ukraine??
