I’m hearing everyone come out and condemn this thing which is apparently “hate speech” and how apparently terrible it was for the BBC to continue broadcasting it (I don’t think they did anything wrong- they were broadcasting a real life event). I understand the upset at kneecap (like supporting Hezbollah and talking about killing MPs) but I don’t know how chanting “Death to the IDF” is hate speech- it’s not even necessarily calling for death to humans, could be directed towards wanting to disband the organisation.
I don’t know why the media and politicians are making such a big deal over it. It feels like they are trying to tell us how awful it was that these people said this thing and that we should apparently be outraged. Or maybe it’s just me. I think there are worse things going on in the world… particularly within the geographical piece of land variously known as Israel/Palestine/Canaan…
I’m probably banned from entering the USA now
Has anyone ever blinked an eye for the quarter of a million dead Russian Soldiers invading Ukraine? No, in fact we cheer for Ukraine to get rid of all of them in any way possible right?
Well IDF is worse.
The difference is that the IDF is comprised of Jewish military personnel and for “some” reason, these days you aren’t allowed to criticize any actions from anyone with said heritage.
It’s stupid, really.
If you’re an asshole, I will call you an asshole. Being Jewish has nothing to do with that equation
Right now, the Israeli government and the IDF are engaged in a genocide. Period. Them being Jewish, I don’t care. Right now these fuckers are literally no different from the Nazi army and, you know, Nazis. The worst thing of all, i guess, is that the irony of Jews acting like Nazis is completely lost on these fuckers. If at least they’d realize what they have become, maybe it could baseball bat smack some sense into their heads, but no.
Criticizing a Jewish military officer for committing genocide is the same as committing genocide on Jews. Or something. I don’t know, don’t ask me, it just doesn’t make any sense.
I guess this can be best summed up with “fuck all religions” because at the core this is just religion being used yet again to fuck over some group of people." Without religion, most people suddenly aren’t so happy to blow up little children, but with?
Our God said its okay!" is all the excuse the Nazis needed and its the same excuse that the extremist Israelis use to support their child murderers.
You either are badly informed about the Nazis or the war in Gaza. Look up the siege of Leningrad just as a minor example. Half of the 3 million inhabitants died over the course of three years. 65 thousand died in Gaza over a similar time frame. These are not remotely the same.
Ehh…
The siege of Leningrad was about two major armies murdering the shit out of each other and the civilians
This is about a single country using its army to slaughter civilians. One is not the same as the other
I gave Leningrad as an example of Urban warfare conducted by Nazis. To show that your Nazi comparisons are unfounded.
If the IDF‘s goal was to kill as many civilians as possible, the number of deaths would be far higher. Check out the number of deaths over time. You can see that it’s increasing slower and slower. Over the last year it has been mainly men, indicating more combatants to civilians, being killed.

The ongoing famine in Sudan has killed half a million children over the last year. Gaza has nothing close to conditions like that.
Hamas and other militants are still active in Gaza and continue to fight a war they have lost a long time ago. That includes them attacking aid distribution facilities run by GHF and killing Palestinians. Making conditions worse for the local population.
Stay on topic brother, an army of a real country full of real people are doing the genocide. Not a religion. The reasons are irrelevant as there can be no justification for genocide.
Yep, them being jewish matters exactly 0. Even bringing it up is literally just an attempt to muddy the waters, and as such it’s the simplest way to find out who supports genocide.
I’d say that it matters a whole lot as especially Jews ought to know better.
It also matter a lot because again it’s a religion directly feeding or being used as an excuse, for genocide. That is basically the one thing religion is really good for, making people feel okay about horrible actions
