Typical. “This person doesn’t agree with my opinion so we can’t have a conversation.”

The ICJ has not ruled on the genocide accusation. Which, by the way, was brought by a country with a strong anti-Israel bias a month after entertaining Hamas leaders as visiting diplomats. And to pre-empt your response, no the ICJ did not say that genocide is plausible. The former head of the ICJ clarified herself that what they actually ruled was that it is plausible that Palestinian rights to be protected from genocide have been engaged, which is a fancy way of saying that the ICJ has jurisdiction to hear the case.

Did you know that children are the largest victim population in literally every major war in history? Do you know how many children died in WWII? If you don’t want children to die in war, don’t start wars.

What war did they instigate?

The only people “supporting genocide” are, ironically, the supposed peace activists who are screaming for intifada and cheering for Hamas and Hezbollah on our streets and college campuses.

Invasions? Do you mean when they retaliated against Gaza AFTER BEING INVADED on Oct 7? Or do you mean retaliating against Hezbollah, AFTER A YEAR OF HEZBOLLAH ROCKETS BEING FIRED INTO ISRAEL? Do you think that Israel should just sit back and let themselves be slowly destroyed attack by attack?

Attacked the UN? WTF are you even talking about?

And yes, every single war has been started by Israel’s enemies.

1. Israel is not committing genocide. Calling it a genocide is extremely disrespectful to people who have, you know, actually suffered genocides.

2. I haven’t met a single Jew ever in my life that thinks, “Israel is perfect and everything they do is right and every single government policy is right.” Perhaps you remember the large protests that were taking place before Oct 7 regarding judicial reform. “Standing with Israel” simply means “supporting Israel’s right to defend itself against genocidal enemies,” or perhaps more simply, “supporting Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state.” It means in a war between a liberal democratic country (however imperfect) and genocidal Jew-hating terrorists, taking the side of the former rather than the latter.

The reason why anti-Zionist Jews exist now is the same reason they existed before Israel was created. Because they live in privilege and safety, assimilated into left-wing circles, and they don’t want to risk losing that. Anybody who proposes a single secular state is either naive, completely ignorant of history and the broader geopolitical context of the conflict, or just doesn’t give a crap about Jewish well-being. Because Israel’s enemies have made it very, very clear that they aren’t interested in peaceful coexistence with Jews. Their objective is to destroy Israel, along with as many Jewish lives as possible, and return the land to its rightful place in the Muslim empire.

I would bet lots of money her posts didn’t simply “criticize Israel”

I don’t disagree it’s a waste of police resources. But that’s not the point. The point is the misleading propaganda that creates the false impression that the government is monitoring your social media posts and showing up at your house because you post something negative about Israel.

Sorry but Amnesty is full of its own anti-Israel hatred. https://www.ngo-monitor.org/reports/amnesty-internationals-propaganda-on-gaza/

Right because the following two things are the same:

1. A radical Islamist regime that has openly expressed genocidal intent towards the Jewish state, and Jews worldwide, and sponsors Islamist terrorists around the world, and has destabilized the entire Middle East and destroyed countries; and
2. The world’s only Jewish state with a total population of 9 million people that just wants to be left alone to live in peace but has been forced to fight for its survival since literally the day it declared independence.

It’s pretty clear from what they’re saying that it was her comments targeting people that were the problem, not posts about Israel. She doesn’t even deny it, she’s just pissed off they complained to the police that she was harassing them.

They didn’t warn her over her social media posts on Israel. They warned her over her messages targeting specific people, who complained to the police about harassment. Important difference.

Do you think The Ayatollas possessing nukes is a good thing for the world?

Anti-Zionist Jews are a very, very small minority. They’re fringe. The fact of the matter is that Israel is closely associated with Jews because it is the Jewish homeland. That’s why antisemitism spikes around the world when violence flares up in Israel - because people hold all Jews responsible for what happens there.

While someone can logically be anti-Zionist without being antisemitic, we’re not dealing with logical arguments. This isn’t a philosophy class. This is the real world. And the inconvenient truth for many on the left is that there is a significant overlap between the anti-Zionist and antisemite circles on the Venn diagram. Most people just don’t want to confront their unconscious biases about Jewish people.

“I visited Israel, talked to a few people, so now I’m an expert on the longstanding and complex conflict so I’m going to write a completely one-sided diatribe against Israel.”

Did I capture it?

I don’t suppose you’ve thought about the possibility that the people he’s “interviewing” are saying exactly what they know will generate a response because it’s obvious he’s not an actual journalist and is just looking for gotcha moments for his social media feeds.

Then of course there’s the fact that he could easily have talked to hundreds of soldiers who didn’t say what he wanted, and he’s just cherry-picked the small number of soldiers that give him what he wants for his social media feeds.

But that would require people to think critically. Or at least just think.

LOL Truthout

These people couldn’t dilute the meaning of the word ‘genocide’ more if they tried. It’s disrespectful to people who have actually suffered genocides.

If you think the college protests are anti-genocide, you haven’t been paying attention.

Blatantly biased journalism. Nowhere in the video does anyone say anything about punishing colleges for “pro-Palestinian protests” or for “criticism of Israel.” He specifically refers to colleges that are violating the civil rights of their students.

Islamist funding of elite US schools is well documented. It has also been well documented that the college encampments were encouraged and funded by outside agitators (specifically the Iranian regime), and many of the participants weren’t even students.

This is about forcing schools to be places of learning and dialogue for everyone, not breeding grounds for anarchy and activism.

Zionists don’t enforce their will with the barrel of a tank. They protect their nation with the barrel of a tank. Big difference.

100,000 Jews were killed in pogroms between 1918 and 1921. And yes, the purges were absolutely about Jews. They just hid their antisemitism by focusing on Zionism as the target (sound familiar?). But it was nothing but good old antisemitism: The Jews are a threat to Communist Russia because they’re greedy cosmopolitan capitalists.
