On Friday, protesters fired flares in the air and demanded Netanyahu step down. Mounted police and trucks blocked their way. Demonstrators blame the prime minister for the security failures leading to the Hamas attack on Israeli communities on Oct. 7 — when authorities here say militants killed 1,200 people — as well his handling of the war in Gaza and the hostages since.
“Netanyahu has to leave or we’ll never get the hostages home,” said Karen Beltz, a Tel Aviv film producer. She said the protests were beginning to swell, but were still not as large or angry as the anti-government demonstrations that rocked Israel for months last year.
The fact that you think I have to “like” Palestine in order to not support oppressing and genociding them says everything.
I feel the same way about them as I do about other targeted minorities like Armenians, Rohingya, Uighurs etc. No one deserves to be treated like they’re subhuman no matter how much I dislike certain aspects of their culture. And every culture has its good and bad aspects.
That’s not what I said. No need to put words in my mouth. Just wondering where all the catchy slogans for Armenians, Rohingya, Uighurs etc. are. There’s more of them than Palestinians.
You can oppose multiple genocides you mouth breather.
I know. I oppose all genocide. I believe it should be the default setting for all humans. Just pointing out the thing about how much more proportional attention we give to one issue vs. another.
