"The hostages were smiling! They looked healthy and clean! They got gift bags!"

[emptyblankvoid]

did you do it? did you free palestinians by commenting "free palestine🇵🇸" under a post wishing jews a good rosh hashanah?

I know these protestors don’t give a rat’s ass about Palestinians. I knew this since Oct. 7th, but I feel recent happenings help put the nail in the coffin.

Sinwar is dead. And these people celebrate him as a hero, a warrior, and a leader in “the cause”.

This man was nicknamed the “butcher of Khan Younis”. Over many years, he’s been killing Palestinians on suspicion of colluding against Hamas. In 2019, Palestinians marched in the “We Want to Live” Gaza protest against Hamas’ rule. Sinwar helped lead the security crackdown on these protestors. They spray-fired into the crowd, killing several people. They rounded up most others and tortured them for going against Hamas.

No one cared about them then. And no one cares about them now. You didn’t care when Palestinians were fighting for their lives against Hamas in 2019. And now, you celebrate a man as a war hero who was known to torture and slaughter Palestinians.

This fake activist shit in the west is getting old.

My doctor and therapist: now with this autism + ADHD diagnosis you need to learn to unmask because masking all the time will make you burn out again and feel like shit

Other people: well it's just interesting how after getting the diagnosis you suddenly start behaving like that I mean I'm not saying you're faking it's just funny how you suddenly cannot be normal like you were before

if you are planning on celebrating the anniversary of october 7th tomorrow — as in treating it as something to be celebrated, an “act of resistance”, “decolonization”, or in any way justified — please unfollow me now. don’t argue with me or try to convince me or justify your position, just unfollow.

I never identified as a Zionist - not an anti either, just didn’t consider it is a label. I’m not Israeli so as a form of nationalism it felt like it didn’t apply to me anyway. then a few years ago I remember all my lefty mutuals started using it like a bad word and a way to attack Israel and I was like, oh shit does that mean Zionism is actually racist? so I looked into it. of course there are many different branches and interpretations but the answer to that is no. still didn’t really feel like my term to use though, even as a Jew.

then October 7 and everything else happened, and I’ve been called a Zionist and a genocider for BEING SAD PEOPLE WERE MASSACRED. for worrying about the hostages. for loving and supporting other Jewish people.

antizionists and uneducated goyim who are literally wishing death on half the world’s Jewish population, and even 80-90% of it when you call for Zionists to be murdered - fuck all of you. you’d stick a yellow star on me and throw me into a camp just for caring about my people. you’d attack and wish death on me for saying Israel has the right to exist, does exist, and is our indigenous homeland. you call for our genocide while smearing us as genociders. you want to harass me and call me a zio??? fine. I will wear that badge proudly now. because it simply means I believe in my people’s self determination. I will always choose protecting them over standing with spineless ignorant amoral extremists like what we’ve seen too many on the left become. I choose dignity and freedom and peace. am yisrael chai.

it wouldn't matter if hamas cured every illness the hostages already had & sent them off with a complimentary rolex watch. the zionists will always accuse them of 39681496 things they didn't do & kill random children about it.

[swansongsd]

Op really said: hey it doesn't matter we slaughtered your loved ones in front of you and took you hostage to be our slave and keep you locked in civillian homes and al jazeera reporters, if you're physically looking decent we literally did nothing wrong bea why you kill us???like what's the problem with keeping slaves if they're well fed?:((( we're just being bullied for licherally NO REASON

Russia, 1881: We’re gonna kill any Jew that doesn’t flee Russia. We’re restricting Jewish emigration to Europe, but permitting emigration to the Middle East.

Germany, Austria, Italy, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Finland, Slovakia, Croatia, France, and others, 1933-1945: We’re gonna kill every Jew in Europe. Flee to the US or Palestine, or die trying.

The US, 1927-1952: Yeah sorry we’re restricting Jewish immigrants to like. 300 people per country. So good luck getting in. We recommend that Jews go to Palestine instead. Btw we are looking to take in Nazi scientists if you know any

Egypt, 1947-1950: We’re rounding up all our Jews and deporting them to Israel

Iraq, 1951-1952: We’re rounding up all our Jews and deporting them to Israel

Algeria, 1962-1965: We’re pressuring and intimidating Jews in the hopes that they’ll all leave the country and go to Israel

Egypt, 1956: We’re rounding up all our Jews and deporting them to Israel (again)

Egypt and Libya, 1967: We’re rounding up, torturing, and killing all our Jews. The ones that survive can flee to Israel

Poland, 1968: The Jews in our country are already loyal to Israel. They will face dire consequences if they don’t leave our country and go to Israel

Ethiopia, 1974-1985: We’re going to marginalize and eventually try to kill all our Jews, and the only way they can escape is by being airlifted out of the country by Israeli helicopters

The US, 2023: Why can’t the Israeli Jews just go back to where they came from? Don’t they all have dual citizenship or whatever?

While I understand the point op is trying to make, it's reductionary to frame the crisis as "people think Jews shouldn't be in Palestine." The issue isn't the Jewish population. The issue is the actions of the Israeli government against non-jewish inhabitants. Peaceful and cooperative cohabitation is not something Palestinians have rejected, but by the settler colonial state of Israel.

Antisemitism doesn't cancel out racism and Islamaphobia and ethnic cleansing.

[lem0nademouth]

you said to correct you if you’re wrong. so I will.

what does anyone actually mean when they say “Free Palestine”? i mean that genuinely. because it changes meaning person to person it seems. personally, when I say “Free Palestine”, I mean “free Palestinians from Hamas, Houthis, Hezbollah, IRI + Qatari manipulation, the Likud, and tokenization by the West”. i mean treat Palestinians like human beings because they are human beings. i mean make both Israel and Palestine safe for both populations to live in and travel between.

unfortunately, most Western Leftists don’t mean that. the underlying default message of “Free Palestine” is “demolish Israel as a state, reestavlish Palestinian sovereignty over Israeli land, and remove Jews from it”. i get that seems like a big jump. it’s not.

recently “from the river to the sea…” was declared hate speech. why? because at its core, it is a call to mass exile at the very least and full blown genocide at worst.

the river in question is the Jordan River, which acts as a natural border between Eastern Israel and Jordan. it’s the easternmost border of Israel.

the sea in question is the Mediterranean Sea. Western Israel and Gaza sit on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. it is the westernmost border of Israel.

to “Free Palestine” from “the river to the sea” is to fully reestablish a Palestinian state on any and all land that is currently Israel. and let’s entertain the idea that some people earnestly believe this isn’t a bad thing, they genuinely believe Jews would be safe in Palestine.

they won’t. they never have been.

ever since the land of Judea, now known as Israel and Palestine, was conquered by the Romans and renamed Syria Palestinia, Jews have not been safe in their Indigenous land. dhimmi laws are the longest lasting example of systemic antisemitism in the Levant, but it goes far beyond that. until the establishment of Israeli statehood, Jews were being exiled, massacred, displaced, harassed, alienated, and discriminated against.

“peaceful and cooperative cohabitation” has been rejected by the Palestinian government several times, actually. the original proposal from the Palestinian government was to move Jews into ghettos and call it autonomous Jewish land. i wish i were joking.

and while we’re here, the non-Jewish inhabitants of Israel include but are not limited to: Samaritans, Druzim, Bedouin Muslims, Copts, Assyrians, Palestinian asylum seekers, Arameans, Circassians, Arabs from across SWANA, and Armenians.

aside from the fact that dismantling Israel would be a wild act of colonialism, it would also put half the world’s Jewish population in very real, very immediate danger.

a troublingly significant amount of Western Leftists champion “Free Palestine” as a campaign to free Palestine and Israel of Jews, establish all Israeli land as Palestinian, and then, presumably, revel in their victory. they have no plans for a sustainable government system or how to remove Hamas and PLO ally groups from power. they have no resettlement plans. no ideas for how to reconfigure infrastructure. there aren’t any actual plans for what to do in this utopia where Palestine is “free” because the goal is met when the Jews are gone. this version of a “free” Palestine requires nothing more than the dismantling of Israel and removal of Jews. what it lacks is a plan for how to actually help Palestinians.

[the-library-alcove]

Also?

Peaceful and cooperative cohabitation is not something Palestinians have rejected, but by the settler colonial state of Israel.

This is false.

Every time Israeli or Zionist leaders have offered to engage in peaceful and cooperative cohabitation, the Palestinians have literally said, "Over our dead bodies."

I only support Jews who don’t want anything to do with their ancestral homeland, who don’t want to love there or go there or allow other Jews to live there, who have no interest in the aspiration for independence and land rights that literally every ethnic group has. In fact I prefer Jews who deny any connection to their ancestral homeland what so ever. I only support Jews who don’t care what happens to half of the global Jewish population and bonus points to Jews who don’t mind if they are killed, raped and/or kidnapped. I only support Jews who allow me to violently hate Jews.

[honesty-my-policy]

the younger generations have become so soft to how ugly war is. I'm sorry but you guys sound so immature.

and don't try to make excuses that you just don't tolerate it now. if you truly didn't tolerate war or violence like this you'd care about the civil wars or guerrilla warfare going on constantly in places besides what is shoved into your social media feeds

grow up.

[xclowniex]

There is just something so disheartening about Israeli's who leave Israel, getting excluded by the left for being Israeli. Its not suprising tbh but it is disheartening

On the obvious side of things, its just straight up xenophobia.

On the less obvious but still kinda obvious side, it shows that jews are not welcome anywhere.

You can be an Israeli jew who chose to leave Israel, the thing which a lot of leftists are calling for, and still not be good enough because you were once in Israel.

The goal post keeps moving from one shitty point to the next shitty point. It was intially about demonzing Israeli jews, now its about demonizing Israeli jews who have moved to the diaspora. Soon it will be about demonizing diaspora jews who ehave either friends or family or both in Israel and all of the above groups encompass the majority of the jewish population, regardless of their stance on zionism. Then the goalpost will move again to jews who don't know anyone in Israel, but is friends with a jew who does.

It all just feels like they don't want us to live in any capacity.

[queenwille]

the fact that people are so comfortable using the word zionist as a slur or ignoring the oct7 massacre or the hostages and still consider themselves as human rights activists simply baffles me
