@Miriamm Very often, the critiques I hear about the Israeli government come from literal rabbis (and LOTS of Jewish people in general). That whole pernicious critcism-of-Israel-is-antisemitic nonsense needs to stop for the sake of fighting actual fucking antisemitism, if nothing else. I agree. Unfortunately, as far as I've seen, people who are keen to label criticism of Israel as antisemitic are also very clear that being Jewish is no defence against an accusation of antisemitism. That strikes me as a dangerous position for everyone. @Miriamm Jewish people worldwide must be absolutely horrified at the bombing of refugee camps, ambulance, hospital… on top of all the rest of the horror. It will solve nothing - not now, not when everyone in Gaza is dead. 💔 #genocide #warcrimes #gaza @harriettmb @Miriamm you’d think. Plenty don’t. We’re not a homogeneous group. I am Jewish. The most vile language I have heard included the laughing and cheering at the killing of innocent Palestinian children came from a fellow Jewish woman in my community. Thankfully many others in the community told her she was a piece of shit. There are fkwits on both sides @Miriamm @Lassielmr I’m very aware there are wrong ‘uns in all sides, hence I was careful not to write ‘all’ Jewish people. Delighted that plenty of people called out that awful woman cheering the murder of innocents too. @Miriamm That's right. @Miriamm @Miriamm The war has already started. Everyone drawing battle lines to harden boundaries expects the antisemitism cranked up to eleven just because. They prioritize their loyalties on toughness, even allies measure up to each other with harsh sentiments. Nobody wants the war at all. Except for assholes. @Miriamm not entirely true. The Jewish people have elected a right wing racist government. By the same logic, Germans had nothing to do with the Holocaust. This is NOT a comparing statement between Holocaust and Israeli government’s actions. Just saying there is accountability between a government and its people, especially in a democracy. |
