The irony of complaining about genocide while at the exact same moment considering the possibility to “remove Nazi Germany”.

Does that make it easier for you to see how what you’re saying is silly?

Israel is an apartheid regime that’s doing genocide… There were Jews in Palestine before Israel. Hating Israel and wanting it gone is not the same as wanting to kill and remove and entire people group. Killing an entire people group is what Israel stands for.

Also how crazy is it that the usa allows Israel to lobby it’s politicians with this much money.

The US killed more innocent civilians in 1 night of world war 2 then the total number of palestinians, militants and civilians combined, that Israel has killed in the entire 75 year history of it’s existence.

And true irony is complaining about apartheid when there are more Arabs on the Israeli supreme court then there are Jews living free in all of Palestine.

Well I’m not a fan of the US government either and won’t defend them. Don’t you think the goddamn atom bomb being dropped on a city is an insanely high bar for what atrocities are acceptable lmao

But what a weird argument. Think about what you’re saying for a minute: The US killed more civilians with a nuke before. Therefore, Israel can kill as many innocent civilians and children as they want. Yikes dude. That’s a bad argument and devoid of any real reason. You ok?

!Irony is complaining about apartheid when there are more Arabs on the Israeli supreme court then there are Jews living free in all of Palestine. !<

I mean Israel is in Palestine… So do you not think the Jews in Israel are living free?

You’re trying to justify genocide and apartheid. Really think about what side that puts you on.

I wasn’t talking about the atom bomb. I was talking about how many innocent civilian deaths it took to “remove Nazi Germany”.

Let me ask you an honest question - do you believe Vladimir Putin when he claims that zionist ukraine is committing genocide in the donbass region, or are you aware that klepto-fascist dictators lie about that sort of thing?

No I don’t…

What fascist dictator would be fabricating the genocide in Palestine in this hypothetical situation? How silly. If you look back at the links I sent you the one that showed the funding from Israel to US politicians. Do you think there’s any incentive there to hide or aid genocide there? Do you think maybe Israel and the United States are the Bad actors in this scenario?

Would that help explain this? Or has this fictional fascist dictator somehow comprised all of these countries already?

You continue to defend apartheid and genocide. Think about what side that puts you on?
