Bomb the manger on Christmas…
Is isreal really that oblivious to world opinion and how it might affect them? Seems that way…
Realistically, who is going to interfere? US and Russia are tied up in Ukraine, China and EU want to stay out, Modi’s India supports Israel. World opinion could get much worse and nothing would happen, Yemen being the only exception so far.
Just a small correction: In the EU and the US we are happily supporting Israel.
Our political leaders do support Israel by and large, but literally no one I know is happy about that
The US isn’t tied up, they actively support Israel with money and weapons. They have a aircraft carrier group parked just outside Israel to send a clear message that no other country can intervene or the US will protect israel. Biden even calls himself a Zionist.
Modi actively supported Trump and Trump policies. Look past his image and see the Indian Trump
You do realize Christmas is not a holiday there? Do you think USA made ceasefire on Ramadan? Same thing. It’s Muslims and Jews there, some Christians, but most of them live in Israel not Gaza because Hamas abused them so much.
You do realise that’s not what the person above said. What the people actually worship in Bethlehem itself means Jack shit to the opinion of the wider world that Bethlehem, the birthplace of the saviour of the Wests biggest religion, was attacked by Israeli forces on the date celebrated as his birthday.
They’re not oblivious, they just don’t care because they know there won’t be any consequences. And those few who dare to say anything are “antisemite” for not supporting genocide.
Palestine doesn’t have many Christians but imagine being one of them and having your family killed for Christmas.
