Be careful, don't bring the USA (antifa) into the discussion. I'm told nobody cares Yes, selective criticism from selected bigots. Nothing like labels when criticizing a group, and simply points out ones bigotry. Agree, govts fair game, but citizens, usually have no control, and protest against govt policies, but that doesn't make the MSM news as much. More than a few Jews unhappy with israeli politics. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post northsouthdevide Posted February 6 Popular Post Share Posted February 6 11 hours ago, Stocky said: It isn't (or at least shouldn't be) "criticize Jews", the criticism is of the Israeli government and its actions in Gaza. It's worth remembering that not all Jews are Israelis, neither are all Israelis Jews. Totally agree. Rightfully so, the jews have had a lot of sympathy for the way they were treated by the nazzi's, I just hope that just as we have forgiven modern germany for the atrocities carried out by its forefathers, one day we can do the same with the people on both sides of this conflict. It was possible in the former ugoslavia, and to a degree in Northern Ireland, so why not in the middle east? The proxi backers on both sides would have to stand down first, so i dont see it happening any time soon. Im sure that theres a lot of ordinery people on both sides that want peace, but unfortunately, the people making the decisions arent listening to them. 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Option to listen to podcast or read transcript. One key quote - “The crucial distinction, which almost no one can keep in view, is that there are now 2 types of people in the world: those who intentionally torture and kill children and other noncombatants, to maximize horror, and those who avoid doing so, however imperfectly, while defending themselves against the first sort of people”. There are no good options when fighting an insane death cult. War is horrible, but sadly often the only way, and Hamas must be totally defeated in the way the Axis powers were in WW2. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the Israeli government is responsible for fighting the war in Gaza the way they do it. And especially Netanyahu. He is Jewish and I am sure most of the Israel's government are Jews and most of their citizens are Jews. Does this mean all Jews are responsible? No. Does that mean that a lot of Jews in Israel are responsible. Yes. And then there is the billion-dollar weapon support from the USA? Who makes sure the USA is doing that? Jews? It seems there are also some Jews who are against this war. So, we definitely can't say all Jews want to kill Palestinians. I think we should try to separate clearly who is doing what and not mix different groups of people all toghter. That is also the case with the people in Gaza and Hamas. Are some of them Hamas? Yes. Are all of them Hamas? No. Who are Israeli soldiers killing? Only Hamas terrorists? Or do they kill also lots of other Palestinian people? In a long debate we can look at all the details. In short it is not wrong to say that (many, not all) Jews kill (many, not all) Palestinians. It's the Zionists that are causing all of this, they need to be curtailed urgently or this whole thing will just continue 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ezzra Posted February 6 Popular Post Share Posted February 6 Here's some facts, Jews have been persecuted,loathed and driven out from places of domicile since biblical times by a myriads of kings, armies, nations and empires throughout history, no other nation on earth have been through what the Jews have suffered, and it's still going on today if it's not about Gaza, than it will be about something else, the world never needed a reason to hate and willifies Jews and nor now, and since many of them are living in Israel now, so Israel have become a target too "Why are we suddenly allowed to publicly criticize Jews?" Because it's the world's favorite people to blame and hate.... 2 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimHuaHin Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 An interesting question - but is it really an "accurate" question? I have some Jewish friends in northern America who have been criticizing the current Israeli leadership for many years. Since the onset of the Israeli genocide/ethnocide in Gaza most of these friends have condemned Israel's actions. The same situation exists in Israel - many many Jews (if not the majority) do not support their current government's actions, and there have been many public protests against the invasion of Gaza, especially by Orthodox Jews; these protests have been brutally put down by Israeli police and military, by order of Netanyahu. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to do only if one comes with some 'welded in' bias, bigotry and so on - which a whole lot of people do. This is usually kept under wraps, comes out when discussions get a bit heated.

Morch Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 10 hours ago, delgarcon said: I think that you have highlighted one of the reasons why people dislike Jews. If you can answer your own question you are probably Jewish and you will go on reminding us of the atrocities committed against your people until the end of time. Most of us had family members or friends who suffered during the World wars, but after a period of mourning we move on, but you can't. Of course we don't know the names of the wars in question. we don't want to, isn't it enough to be forever reminded of the holocaust? My heart goes out to you. Seems like them pesky Jews are forever tormenting you. As for the comment you replied to - try that 'context' thing. Topic was in relation, I think, to the current situation. A whole lot of people comment on things, or protest or whatever - and do so decisively. The level of their actual knowledge regarding things is often minimal or non-existent. Doesn't stop them from pronouncing their 'opinion' as gospel. I think there's at least some relation with that, to the issue of bigotry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
