Jews around the word are less safe because of Israel when they were promised the opposite. Their faith has been used as a cover for a land grab and they put your holy symbol on a flag they go to war, and worse, under. It's no wonder so many Jews at least in the US are critical of Israel. It probably feels a lot like being a regular Muslim watching groups commit violence with their religious iconography and warped interpretations used to create 'justification'.
Sounds like you're condoning this behaviour.
Edit: good old Lemmy, where saying it's bad to hate on people just because of where they're born will get you downvoted to oblivion. You all need to step back and re-examine your views.
You can't read. Those are facts and written in a passive voice. Condoning the behavior reads something like: "The state of Israel has sown seeds of ill will nurtured by lies and here comes harvest time" or "Yeah fuckers, get dunked on world stage" or something similar and in-between.
How on earth is that passive voice? Their whole reply is devoted to criticising Israel, and not a single word to the effect of "it isn't OK to treat people badly because of where they are from". This sounds an awful lot like victim-blaming to me.
Edit: let's try a little experiment. Imagine me replying this to an article about a Palestinian being banned from a hotel simply for being Palestinian.
Palestinians around the word are less safe because of Hamas when they were promised the opposite. Their faith has been used as a cover for terrorism and they put your holy symbol on a flag they go to war, and worse, under. It’s no wonder so many Muslims in the middle east are critical of Palestinians. It probably feels a lot like being a regular Christian watching Republicans commit violence with their religious iconography and warped interpretations used to create ‘justification’.
Palestine is not committing a genocide.
This is a really weird way of saying "it isn't OK to ban a random Israeli from your hotel just because they are Israeli".
Well yeah. Because Israel is committing genocide.
Incredible bigotry and hypocrisy on display here. You know nothing about this "Alex" fellow. Maybe he's been out in the streets protesting against Likud and calling for an end to the war.
If that were the case, "Alex" would understand what's happening, instead of making it a national case.
If my country, with a democratically elected leader decides to go do an ethnic cleanse to illegally occupy the land of a fellow country while not giving a single fuck about human rights and international laws, I'd understand if someone wouldn't want me in their business.
