      “I mean, sure Israel is murdering thousands of children, expelling people from their homes, bombing a sovereign nation unprovoked, and Israel is bulldozing homes to make way for new settlements. But other nations do bad stuff too so this is obviously antisemitic”

      What’s antisemitic is conflating the actions of Israel with Jewish people. Jews aren’t inherently fascist and fascist Jews aren’t all Jews.

      This is also fucking disgusting as antisemitism is a real thing. Trying to conflate it with Israel critique makes people take antisemitism less seriously which is also dangerous.

          Oh? What’s the official number? Perhaps you can report how many children Israel has counted.

              I’d love to, but Isreal seems intent on bombing everyone who enters Gaza. Aid workers, children, and evacuees alike.

                Lol, that’s completely false.

                Try to send a Jewish person into Gaza, and see how long Hamas will let them live.

                Now look at the Arabs, imams, living in Israel peacefully.

                  How does what you say excuse the wanton slaughter of women and children in Gaza?

                  You are giving a reason for the genocide. Hitler said the jews were greedy, Netayahoo says the Arabs are violent. And just like the nazis, you repeat whatever vile thing your leader says.

          Start watching any news. I would love to see any count that has the number of kids dead not in the thousands.

            Yeah I’m sure Hamas using human shields has nothing to do with children being killed as well.

            Damn IDF, why can’t they just accept to be shot at if there’s a human shield in the way! Hamas must live on

              No. So why would it be antisemitic rather than just… directed against people who break international law? Literally do you have any evidence for this assertion whatsoever that doesn’t depend on complete and utter ignorance of this and other ICC actions?

                  If you stand with Israel, you stand for genocide. You stand next to a war criminal.

                  I’m guessing you were raised to think the motherland can do no wrong and this complete lack of empathy for the Palestinian people was drilled into you.

                  The longer you take to break through the brainwashing, the longer it will take for you to forgive yourself for these disgusting comments.

                  Imagine the Germans that defended and enabled Hitler fervently during the holocaust and ask yourself if you wish to ealk in their steps.

                  I stand with Israel 100%.

                  I can see that.

                  I guess we will have to agree to disagree about the law. Luckily for me the court seems to agree with my assessment
