Why is it wrong to criticize Israel?

Post Reply New Topic

LIke I don't like how they have been dealing with the palestine issues, but I have no issues whatsoever with jewish people, I just think the nation of Israel is a bit extremist. I just hate the idea of wanting palestinine people to live without having their homes bombed is automatically anti-semetic. LIke I get there are as*holes going around discriminating against jews in light of this conflict, but that is absolutely disgusting...like wh jewish people in general have nothing to do with it, it is just the Isreali government may be wrong in their approach but its about a war monger president they have not jews in general. So like anyone using this conflict as a reason to discriminate against jews is way in the wrong. But that still does not negate the fact that Israel is violating international codes and basically trying to eradicate palastinians with hamas as an excuse when apparently Israel is the ones who put hamas in power in the first place from some things I have read.

So idk I support he existance of Jewish people but I feel the nation of Israel is a bit extremist, as in they want to support jewish people and also expell or kill palestinians to make room for them. Well that is wrong and it has been wrong for a very long time yet it has been going on for decades,centuries even and Israel will not stop oppresing palastinians no matter what. So like why is it so wrong to criticize that, that palastnians never have any chances in jobs meant for isrealis. and also during any conflict they get their water and electric shut off so they can't even tell the world about what they are experieriencng.

And its weird during the republican debate those canidates swore loyalty to Israel, and no offense but hey get your head up we live in the U.S.A so pretty sure we don't have to bow down to Israel of all countries, like wtf. What even is that.

I should think any war mongering nation is worthy of criticizm.

That is what I think, but it's very easy to be accused of anti-semitism if you so much as criticize Isreals government, or their handling of palestine. Like you know I think all people should be equal so I can't understand a place where both sides think killing as many civilians as possible is a good war tactic. Like hamas brutally killing people and taking hostages is wrong, but also Israel brutally attacking specifically civilians when Hamas attacks happen is also wrong. And now Israel is trying to defend attacking freaking hospitals. I just with my morality I cannot justify any of that like in my eyes Hamas and Israel are both wrong. But people just want to paint it as anti-semetic, when I just hate war...I hate people killing each other doesn't matter who the sides are, it's always just young soldiers fighting other young soldiers and a ton of death....like is it worth it? Idk I just hate it all around.

I am guessing guilt over the Holocaust, the whole "anti-Israel = anti-Semitism" argument, etc.

Also, keep in mind that Netanyahu is ideologically similar to Trump. His party, Likud, is their equivalent of the GOP or the Tories. (Labor is the equivalent of the Dems).

Another issue is that Israel is our strongest regional ally against Iran, who funds groups like Hamas and Hezbollah.

The controversy is not over criticizing Israeli policy. With a few exceptions Zionists agree that is ok. The controversy is over opining that Israel has no right to exist as a Jewish centered country ie anti Zionism. A hotly disputed claim by a significant amount of zionists is that anti zionism is a form of antisemitism.

Because the default view in western society is that Muslims do not deserve rights the same way Jews and Christians do.
Because Jews are the only victims of the Holocaust you can get Both F---ing Sides to give a damn about with any consistency. The right sure as hell does not feel the Roma are entitled to an exclusive apartheid state of their own. They definitely don't care about the Nazi murder of homosexuals or leftists. Right-wing Protestants probably don't care or haven't even heard of the murder of Catholics and Jehovah's Witnesses. It's the same mass graves--but mainstream society can only bring itself to feel bad about the Jews.

I suspect I won't be popular from here on, but I'm Autistic, so I'll get over it.

I'm a bit of a WW2 buff. The West failed to help the Jews. Horribly. Don't forget that the test run for the 'Final Solution' was Aktion T4, where many Autistics were no doubt murdered.



Once again, humans - no doubt predominantly NTs - need to assert a hierarchy. Jews and Moslems are coming from two different angles.

Israel are attempting to defend themselves with Western values - and firepower. Palestinians do not hesitate in making themselves martyrs and draw attention to their suffering to Western media.

Frankly, any society that is willing to use their own children as human shields and sacrifice them for attention is not that highly evolved. Not to mention utterly despicable.

And.... all over the Western media - Palestine is the 'victim'. They have played their cards well. Opportunistic Woke news hacks have seen their opportunity for personal advancement in the suffering of others (yet again) and played into the hands of Hamas to create a world culture of anger towards Israel.

Let's not forget that Hamas started this war. Imagine how you would feel if your kids died at a music festival.

At the end of the day, all of them need to grow up. However you shouldn't believe the pro-Palestine garbage the media is shoving down your throat. When has a journalist ever been on your side?

Can I ask? Is there a Palestinian resistance against the terrorists of Hamas?

Or are they all the same?

I know as Autistics we still struggle in Western society - but we are still here, due to the blood shed on the Somme and Normandy, and as Western society evolves, I believe we will find our acceptance if we continue to speak up for ourselves.

Palestine is awash with assault rifles and other weapons. If someone wanted change..... just sayin

If a lion was coming for my children it wouldn't matter what flag it waved.
