I’m not saying it’s right or even acceptable, but let’s use the proper words to describe things. In this case Israel is exploiting members of a persecuted minority, then further screwing them by stealing their wages. And on top of that many of them are probably refugees because of Israel’s genocide campaign. But they’re not slaves according to any of what I’ve seen claimed.

Several reasons. Most of them related to bigotry, right wing politics and dehumanizing of minority groups, but I repeat myself.

When you don’t consider your enemy human, it’s your own actions that become inhumane as a result.
