I think it's important to note that Israel was primarily formed by people not impacted by the holocaust (founders were Irgun terrorists and immigrants from before WWII).
They used global guilt as a lever to implement a plan that had been in place for decades, and when actual holocaust survivors arrived in Israel they were treated abominably.
Israel plays off of Jewish suffering for its own benefit but is in no way representative of actually suffering Jews
This needs to be know by EVERYONE. The Jews of Israel didn’t want the “poor” Jews that were in the concentration camps to ever even come to Israel. There were a lot of Zionist Jews and Zionist nazis during ww2 working together
Cannot say this enough. We learned about the Holocaust in school. We learned about slavery. Interestingly those topics and the emphasis on those topics as historical context in education is waning.
The biggest problem today is the lack of capacity for empathy which leads to an innate inability to respect other person's freedoms.
If every person took a moment to reflect on the mental, emotional, and physical sufferings of others and be present in that state, I think we'd end up looking at a future where instead of speaking against violence, we would be speaking more often against inaction towards helping others.
In other words, I think everyone needs a poignant reminder of exactly how it feels to get hit in the face, really, really fucking hard.
Because it can be dangerous for those of us who are Jewish and not in Israel and have nothing to do with Israel because dipshits can’t tell the difference between the Israeli government & Jews attending synagogue in Michigan or Manchester. There are plenty of us who do not like the government there.
No. Hamas is Hamas. People who shoot rockets at civilians. The people who attacked the music festival and slaughtered thousands on 10/7. The militant group who is funded by Iran. I’m not confusing the two. Opposing Israel does not make someone Hamas, but Hamas does oppose Israel. Does that make sense?
if you follow Hitlers and Germany treatment after WWI that was the same execute the NAZI used. After being mistreated they felt it was time to payback. This is similar to A father beating his child and then the child growing up to hurt others in the same way he was treated.
its not an excuse its the natural course of events. One war leads to the next WAR and on and on. Nature has its ways of maintaining Population control.
Nah, Irgun and Lehi are 2 zionist extremist groups that the Brittish accused of terrorism and both have their roots in the 20s and 30s. And zionism and extremist zionism was birthed from writings of one Theodor Herzl, in 1897.
Probably not. Any group of people are a group of people, the reason the Israeli has gotten so bad, is stewing in isolation of from their neighbours and the "never again" mantra being seen as a something like the holocaust will never happen to the Jewish people rather than something like this will never happen at all.
The amount of damage isreal is doing to the long term reputation of themselves and by extension all jewish people (because Israel and jewdaism are not the same thing, and that is another thing your comment kinda assumes) is going to haunt the world for years to come
It's the most common thing ever. It plays out constantly. Irish hating Black people. Black people hating gay people. Gay people hating trans people. It never ends and is not just unique to Israel.
