Then the Israeli Jews came for the Palestinians... And you sure as hell stayed silent! (Edited for clarity)

@biggamer7876 You enjoy reductive analysis, don't you? Please read up on the history of Zionism and Jewish settlers from 1917-1947. Furthermore, the UN decision to grant the settlers the land was not legally binding, it was a GA decision that didn't even represent half the globe because of colonialism. All Arab countries, I've the ones impacted by the decision voted NO. Thirdly, the war was initially a civil war where armed Jewish-Israelis largely terrorised and expelled Palestinians from their homes. Then the Arab nations "started the war". Read up on that timeline too. Nothing Israel has ever done was in fact in self defense, as they always seek to take more land after every conflict. You need to move a bit away from the sanitized US/Europe version of history that is based on their guilt for allowing the slaughter of Jews to happen in the first place.

@wolfgangemmerich7552 Factually wrong, but it really doesn't matter. People were living there and then a bunch of Westerners decided it was free real estate.

Too little too late, senator. The US have fully committed to partake in genocide and ethnic cleansing and you refused to call for a cease-fire the first day the horror was evident for all. Better than you colleagues, for sure, but too late...

Not only can you, but in fact you have been doing so, since the inception of the international system, Bernie. Imagine if Western nations were made to answer for their war crimes?: Vietnam, Cambodia, Algeria, Indonesia, Rhodesia (Zimbabwe), Kenya, Angola, Tanzania, Iraq, Palestine, Afghanistan... That's just from the top of my head. Indictments of every major "civilised" nation since the 1960s. We're not even counting the gross "violations" during WW2 committed by the allies against civilians.

Wait, what? South African that left SA after Apartheid fell, that fully supports Israels apartheid and genocide and is actively funding neo-nazis in Europe is himself a nazi !? What a surprise!

400 of the people killed in Israel on October 7th were Israeli soldiers. They were not innocent. They were actively part of the Israeli occupation.

@aidan473 Not all Jews are Zionists, that is absolutely true. But almost all Jews in Israel are in fact in agreement with the mass slaughter of Palestinians. That's their own polls from December 2024. So I'll amend my original statement to "Jewish Israelis".

@darthxibalba2585 What anti-Semitism? The fact that Jewish Israelis recently arrived from Europe are using their religion and nationality to enact a genocide? Or the fact that people like you have wholeheartedly supported it now out of guilt, because your ancestors mass murdered their ancestors?

@wolfgangemmerich7552 Nah, man. The Ottomans were overlords in Palestine as well. Just not genocidal like the Israelis are Seems to me, Wolfgang, like you people are going "full German" once again. Just this time against the Migrants and Muslims instead of Jews and LGBTs. Doesn't make you less of a "schmatzi", just one with slightly different goals.

@hijackdallas6052 That's historically wrong. The Zionist movement was already in full force and advocating for Jewish migration to Palestine well before WW2. Tens of thousands of Jews had already migrated after the Balfour pact made with the UK in 1917. The two state solution died in the late 90's with Netanyahu and Sharon. There are almost 800.000 illegal settlers in Palestine. Almost x4 as many as there was when the Oslo treaty was signed. What does that tell you? That Israel never wanted two states, nor an equal peace. It was always a lip service. Saying you would support a two state solution, although you mean well, is like saying "thoughts and prayers" after a mass shooting in the US. It's meaningless and it has never, ever made things better for people going forward.

@aidan473 Your point is well made, however I did in fact look at the "facts". Jews, specifically Israeli Jews, have committed numerous crimes in the name of nationhood and/or religion since the 1930s in the Levant. In the last poll, 80% of all Israelis (including Muslims, Christians and Druze ie ethnic Arab Palestinians that make up about 15%) were for the "incursion and response" in Gaza and the West Bank. It's not anti-Semitism to say what I did about Jewish Israelis. Nor would you ie be reprimanded if you said "Germans supported Nazism during WW2" because the vast, vast majority did in fact do just that. Being Jewish isn't solely an ethnicity, in fact the majority of Settlers are historically converts, not of Semitic origin and have had little to no heritage from the Middle East.

You should be in distress over how Germany fully supported Israels genocide in Gaza and tried banning peaceful protests, yet allows AfD to march on the streets. 0 for 3 Germany on being the right side of genocide. Yeah, I read about Germany's "exploits" in Africa as well.

"Techno-feudalism" As Yanis Varoufakis would call it.

Shame on all of you for supporting and aiding crimes against humanity. Yes, you too, Bernie. You are either a coward or a zionist for not calling for a cease-fire and immediate humanitarian aid. Hypocrite.
