Ok, I’ll correct that to ‘Israel as a nation casually murders children on a regular basis’ to be more accurate then.

Sus af though that you claimed that a meme criticising Israel as a nation for killing kids was an attack against all jews

Well, that is at least a start. Now could we agree to switch “Israel as a nation” with “The right-extremist government of Israel, it´s military and the ultra-nationalist settler movement” please?

A nation includes all of it´s citizens, so that is a weird argument that seems to have only one goal, to be a killer argument against any critique of antisemitic propaganda against Israel.

How is generalizing all citizens of Israel -who as we know are mainly Jewish people- as casual child murderers not classic antisemitism? Please include in your consideration, that the narrative of child sacrifice and blood libel is one of the oldest antisemitic tropes there is and put the meme in a context with that fact.

Israel “as a nation” has been doing this since its inception in 1948. It has never been anything besides an ultra-nationalist settler movement. I suspect you either greatly lack historical context or are arguing in bad faith tbh.

I can see the true part in this oversimplifying generalization.

It has never been anything besides an ultra-nationalist settler movement.

The same could be said about many countries. Are you by any chance a US american?

I suspect you either greatly lack historical context or are arguing in bad faith tbh.

The fact that somebody has a different opinion than you does not mean neither.

No we can’t, fuck off. Israel is an apartheid state and Zionism is an European settler-colonial movement.

Du scheinst die Art Mensch zu sein welche möglichst simple Narrative bevorzugt und die Welt klar in gut und böse aufteilt. Daher kein Interesse an einer Diskussion, danke und schönen Tag noch.

Dein kringeliger Avatar prüft so was von aus.
