proof, if need be, that this genocide didn’t begin in 2023
Israel abusing Palestine is something that has been going on for decades already.
I remember watching IDF soldiers murdering Palestinian children (because they threw rocks at them) on the news when I was a child.... That was 40 years ago.
I remember a Dutch politician got into hot water because his wife put up a Palestinian flag on her home to draw attention to the Palestinian situation. The reaction was exactly the same, she was labelled an antisemite
I have nothing against Jews , I have nothing against anyone, not for sex, gender, race, skin color, sexual preferences, I don't care.
But fuck, Israel is making it hard not to judge all Jews. It's the Israeli government doing this but it still has wide support and way too many people there believe that this genocide somehow is justified.
And if you say that Hamas is bad, fuck right off. Yes, Hamas is a terrorist organization SUPPORTED BY THE ISRAELI GOVERNMENT JUST SO THEY HAVE A REASON TO KILL MORE PALESTINIANS.
This is NOT a new thing, this has been going on since, well, pretty much since Israel was founded
And then somehow we need to see israeli as the victims l? Fuck right off. Anyone living there SHOULD FUCKING KNOW BETTER. Your think that if anyone would know better, its them, yet here we are. Humanity is truly fucked.
That was pretty exact and a delight to read. There are millions of ppl with common sense who know how to analize basic history like you. The problem in this freak modern media world is no one is allowed to speech 'that long' before being interrupted with some Cpt. Obvious strikes again 'but the right to defend...', 'do you support terrorists' or 'are you antisemite'. Argumentative dialoge is long dead.
The number one threat to humanity, bar none, is religion. A text-based mind virus.
It shouldn't make it hard. People are shitty. There's a lot of shitty people. But there are many Jews are highly and publicly opposed to Israel. Judge based on actions and don't label groups as all one type unless the group's alignment by itself is ill
That was sort of my point. I don't want to blame Jews, hell, I don't blame jews, but Israel is making that really really difficult with their actions
In that respect, I see israel as the biggest antisemitic threat to Jews. There is no other single entity that works so hard to make people hate Jews.
Actually here's a better reply than my other one!

Since at least the establishment of the Mandate of Palestine and the Balfour Declaration of 1917. 😔
I always thought this was about the US vs Iraq, based on when it came out
It is. They "hit" the twin towers.
We sure it’s about Israel and not the US if it’s from 2004? US does this to everyone
Nah Israel has been doing this for like 5 decades now, this is NOT a new thing. I saw this shit on the news as a kid, 40 years ago at least
In 2004 the US invaded Iraq following the current war with Afghanistan after the towers fell. This comic has two buildings that look a lot like the World Tade Center.
If this isn't about israel I grabbed the wrong one. There is one that is just like this that very definitely is. I see the two towers looking buildings there, but I didn't think that was intentional. I'll see if I can find out.
Edit: I don't have the original context currently, but this URL suggests that in 2012 people believed this to be about Israel.

Fits both.
Those do look like the twin towers.
I remember being pissed off about what I saw Israeli tanks doing in gaza on the news in the mid-1990s, and suffice to say I was absolutely not primed to be doing anything but unconditionally supporting them at that time.
