          1972 is not exactly a meme either. Palestine got themselves where they are now and are fully responsible for their situation. Don’t blame it on isrelael to try and justify your antisemitism. They always try to hide their antisemitism with solidarity for Palestine. Where is your solidarity for all the victims of Palestinian terror, intifadas and daily rocket attacks? Fuck the murderers of Jewish athletes. Fuck Palestine. Worst shithole in the world

            Oh yeah, here’s the ol anti semitism dog whistle. Nobody’s buying that crap anymore, bro. And are you saying that Palestine has been bombing themselves, discriminating against themselves, and stealing their homes to give to to Israelis themselves, this entire time? Idk what your end goal is, but supporting genocidal regimes rarely looks good in hindsight. Israel is the bad guy here, period. Do you take pleaseure in being wrong about basic facts or something?

              “Hey, the entirety of everyone in Palestine earned the bloodshed, rape, pillaging, and mother’s tears in 1972 when +50% of them weren’t even alive” - that guy

            Tankies aren’t fascists, dumbass. Why don’t you go catch up to speed on common knowledge before you start debating things you clearly do not understand.

    Why are people unironically bootlicking Israel so much? Their PM literally showed a map of middle east without palestine in it… that just screams ethnic cleansing and genocide. And I’m part jewish btw. It hurts me so much to see this shit happening when not even 80 years ago my great grandparents were being ethnically cleansed from europe. And it’s being perpetrated by the people that were once victims of this fascist ideology. :/

    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    WASHINGTON (AP) — The Biden administration is admitting Israel into a select group of countries whose citizens are allowed to travel to the United States without getting a visa in advance.

    The Department of Homeland Security administers the program, which currently allows citizens of 40 mostly European and Asian countries to travel to the U.S. for three months without visas.

    Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said the agreement, after more than a decade of work, “will enhance our two nations’ collaboration on counterterrorism, law enforcement and our other common priorities” and make the allies more secure.

    Secretary of State Antony Blinken, in a joint statement with Mayorkas, cited enhanced “freedom of movement for U.S. citizens, including those living in the Palestinian Territories or traveling to and from them.”

    It comes as Netanyahu is facing months of mass protests against his proposed remake of Israel’s judicial system that critics say will make the country less democratic.

    But even before the announcement was official, the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee said it had filed a federal lawsuit aiming to stop Israel from being allowed into the program.

    The original article contains 607 words, the summary contains 181 words. Saved 70%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

    Seeing all the antisemites crawling out of their holes is disgusting.

      Being against A STATE doesn’t equal being against an ethnic group. I can be against Russia, but not against Russians. I can be against Israel, but not against jewish people. The fact that you equate the state of Israel with all Jewish people (indirecty by screaming antisemitism) just screams ethnostate.

      And I am part jewish fyi.

      What’s the best way, in your opinion, to say “fuck the ruling government of Israel, it’s supporters, and its financial backers” without someone thinking it’s about Judaism? Because I don’t care what religion the people who live in Israel practice, I don’t care what religion the people in Palestine practice, I just want to tell fascist cunts who believe in spreading terror to go fuck themselves without any of that flack to be on who they pray to.

          I don’t understand why you asked me a bunch of questions as an answer to my question.

          If it makes you feel better, yes, fuck Hamas and any group spreading terror and fear. Fuck anyone who harms innocents knowingly.

          So, tell me, how do I say “fuck Israel’s government, fuck it’s vigilantes, fuck it’s terrorists” without being accused or being an anti-semite?

            Also, just so we’re clear, I don’t want to live anywhere near Gaza or Tel Aviv. Locals on both sides seem to have too much animosity for my liking. To be fair, who would want to live in Gaza when it’s being bombed all the time.

            I wouldn’t want to live in Tel Aviv either, crime rate against people who look like me isn’t friendly enough.
