Criticalness of Israel is not hatred of Jews. Any attack on someone based on their nationality should be a hate crime (including illegal immigrants at the USA Southern border). Walking past a protest and being offended by their message isn’t being attacked. Israel is way over the line and has historically been looking for reasons to absorb the Gaza strip into their control.

Sorry I can’t see your comment in thread to respond there, I don’t mean to, or care if, we have this conversation in private or where others can take from it.
I don’t think we are seeing “a sight more than” criticalness of Israel by anyone other than those who were already predisposed to hate Israel for hateful reasons. I do not support those who would kill anyone for religious reasons, and I’m offended that you would be so quick to put me in that camp. You’re too quick in putting people onto one side or the other, and that will only cause people who want to be on your side to find others who will ‘be open to supporting’ them, and while I align myself with where you’re coming from, the people who open their arms to those you turn away are maligned with the intent to corrupt those you turned away against you.
It’s a very dangerous (or very troll -esque) thing you do with your quick to judge words.
You just did the opposite, and took hatred of Jews and equated it with criticalness of Israel and Israel’s war crimes.
Israel voluntarily got out of Gaza, it would be suicide to go back, both temporarily (as is done now) and of course permanently.
The amount of money spilled from all over the world into Gaza could have made it a beautiful paradise, or a second Tel Aviv.
People there are refugees because hamas is happy with them being refugees.
Israels government are a bunch of criminals, but not for anything to do with Gaza. It’s an impossible conflict in which the only winners are the extremists on both sides who use it to show the world how there is no other way than force. Hamas justifies hiding under hospitals by saying that’s the only way to defend themselves, the corrupt, incompetent, extremist, Israeli government now want to blame the 2006 government for leaving Gaza and by that bringing this assault upon them.
Oh yes, the paradise open air prison created by Israel, which they now try to “re-build” to create a moon-style amusement park.
And while I don’t hate Jews or any other race, I find it strange that no one here is talking about the elephant in the room. That the recent surge in hate crime is directly linked with the war in Gaza, and that people are tired of seeing Israel’s government overstepping their limits once again and trying to level up the whole of Gaza by carpet bombing it, without any consideration of human life.
Have you ever thought that if Israel has found a peaceful solution of the Gaza/Hamas problem there would be a hate crime surge?
And what about the hate crime against the Palestinians in the West Bank, which is documented, unprovoked and happening with the silent endorsement of the IDF? I am sorry but I find it a bit cynical to say the least.
