    “I mean, sure Israel is murdering thousands of children, expelling people from their homes, bombing a sovereign nation unprovoked, and Israel is bulldozing homes to make way for new settlements. But other nations do bad stuff too so this is obviously antisemitic”

    What’s antisemitic is conflating the actions of Israel with Jewish people. Jews aren’t inherently fascist and fascist Jews aren’t all Jews.

    This is also fucking disgusting as antisemitism is a real thing. Trying to conflate it with Israel critique makes people take antisemitism less seriously which is also dangerous.

      This right here. People saying this don’t care about antisemitism, they just want to feel good while they defend their favourite apartheid state

        Oh? What’s the official number? Perhaps you can report how many children Israel has counted.

            I’d love to, but Isreal seems intent on bombing everyone who enters Gaza. Aid workers, children, and evacuees alike.

              Lol, that’s completely false.

              Try to send a Jewish person into Gaza, and see how long Hamas will let them live.

              Now look at the Arabs, imams, living in Israel peacefully.

                How does what you say excuse the wanton slaughter of women and children in Gaza?

                You are giving a reason for the genocide. Hitler said the jews were greedy, Netayahoo says the Arabs are violent. And just like the nazis, you repeat whatever vile thing your leader says.

                  There is no wanton slaughter of people in Gaza.

                  What would you call October 7th then? Because that is wanton slaughtering of people.

                  Because al Jazeera didn’t report it, of course.

                  Thanks! And I know, they’re everywhere.

                  And no one answers anything about October 7th except for the common response “Israel has their land!” or “well look how many Israel killed now”

                  Pure arrogance and stupidity

            Then how can you claim the statement is a lie?

            Right, because it makes Israel look bad. Anything that makes them look bad is a lie right?

            it’s fucking astounding you don’t even realize why the “Al-Jazeera” numbers are the only ones available.

        Start watching any news. I would love to see any count that has the number of kids dead not in the thousands.

          Yeah I’m sure Hamas using human shields has nothing to do with children being killed as well.

          Damn IDF, why can’t they just accept to be shot at if there’s a human shield in the way! Hamas must live on
