Houthis weren’t attacking before things got so unhinged.

You think the Houthis are innocent babes? You should look into the war crimes they've committed. Maybe get a translation of the slogan they've had for decades "Death to America, Death to Israel, A Curse Upon the Jews." They're antisemitic psychopaths.

Be a little more careful in choosing your allies, ok?

I'm sorry, but you're conflating a boring statement, saying that they weren't attacking western ships, with support.

Fuck you, zionist scum. I want an end to the genocide in Palestine. That's my only end. You're either dishonest or stupid.

Yeah I'm not Jewish. I used to think a Jewish state wasn't necessary to provide a safe haven for Jews for times when antisemitism rises in the cycle that's been happening for centuries. Not that I was against there being a Jewish state, just didn't think it was an imperative. Antisemitism isn't going to come back, not after we've all seen the horrors of the holocaust.

Comments like yours have convinced me that yeah, there actually does need to be a Jewish state.

I'm not even Jewish but you're throwing slurs at me because of incorrect assumptions you're making based out of hatred. Israelis don't need to prove the necessity of a Jewish state. Your hatred proves it.

Zionism is not Judaism. Zionism requires a(n apartheid) Jewish state. Judaism does not.

Jews don't need their own state, you fucking shitbag. Yes, there is antisemitism and it's wrong. Do you think every minority deserves to wipe out other minorities to have their own state? They don't. Everyone deserves to live freely wherever they are.

Zionism is shit. Judaism is religion. I hate religion, but not Jews. Get fucked.

Honest question, how do you feel about Pakistan?

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Victims of genocide. What other interpretation could there be?

[–] Majoof@aussie.zone 1 points 9 months ago

Pakistan, not Palestine. The Muslim state that was established roughly around the same time and roughly the same manner.
