i hate to break it to you, but there are a lot of leftists that are very comfortable with genocide.

Running away from Europe after being ethnically cleansed is “colonialism”? Running away from Arab countries after being ethnically cleaned is “colonialism”?

Israel wasn’t just started by immigration from Europe. It was also the immigration of Jewish communities that had been expelled from Arab countries. These communities existed in the Middle East for centuries. They’re not white. Sadly, there are no significant Jewish populations left in Arabic countries.

This post erases all the indigenous, Middle Eastern Israelis.

This is too much of a god send to Netanyahu to have been on accident.

The idea that someone benefiting from a catastrophe means they must be involved in it is insane. After 9/11, sales of "Only Time" by Enya went way up. The whole country was in a panic and wanted to listen to soothing music. Since Enya benefited from 9/11, by your logic, she must've been involved.

you: There’s a stench here. Something is not right.

also you: This is too much of a god send to Enya to have been on accident.

I think you mean Israel and Saudi Arabia.

People question the timing of the attack and hint at larger conspiracies EVERY TIME there's a terrorist attack. They did it on 9/11. They did it on 7/11. They will always do this and it will always be stupid.

I dislike Netanyahu, but it is simply insane to think Netanyahu coordinated an attack of this scale with his good buddies Hamas. Please seek help.

Calling the Israel govt "genocidal" is not fair or accurate. Israel has had military superiority over Gaza every day since it was captured in 1967. If they were genocidal, they could've slaughtered all the people in Gaza at any time. Instead, the population of Gaza has doubled since 1967. If you want to know what a real genocidal regime looks like, imagine the situation were reversed and Hamas had overwhelming military superiority over Israel. Imagine Hamas had tanks, F-16s, F-35s, and Apache helicopters. What would happen? The genocide would start immediately. Hamas would be slaughtering civilians en masse. No restraint. No negotiations. True Genocide.

Before you ask, I'm not Jewish and I'm not defending Israeli atrocities. I just think this is an extremely simplistic and unfair characterization of Israel.
