Israeli protesters during an judicial overall protests outside the Knesset in Jerusalem, February 20, 2023. (Photo: Ilia Yefimovich/dpa via ZUMA Press/APA Images)The entire Israeli political spectrum is united in blasting Netanyahu for not continuing to attack Iran, and Israeli society agrees. The reason, to put it simply, is that Israelis are war junkies.

First of all, I congratulate you for de-escalating from Nazi to dirty Zionist.

Take a second to look at the context of the conversion:

Me: Just because the war against Iran has high approval rate doesn't mean Israelis are war junkies. By that logic, Palestinians are terror junkies for supporting Hamas.

You: "Every attack by Hamas is a response to israel"

Me: "So… the issue isn’t that Israel is raping and torturing Palestinians, it’s that they don’t have a good enough reason to do so?"

You: Outright ignoring the atrocities done by Hamas and putting the blame on Israel, and then saying I used a straw man.

Please answer the question - Do Palestinians have the right to murder, torture and kidnap Israelis?

I'm not ignoring what's been done to the Palestinian people, which is why I understand their hate towards Israel.

they could have easily enriched to 90% but they didn’t.

A nazi by any other name is still a nazi.

Wow, I did nazi that coming. (don't worry, I'm don't with you, you can continue calling me a Nazi uninterrupted. Just couldn't decide between this and the antisemitism comment)

Nazism and zionism are the same type of ideologies and used the same savage methods to genocide populations

Israelis are genocide junkies because they support settler colonialism and you are defending that settler colonial power. Palestinians just want to be free and not genocided.

I believe both side should be held accountable in a process of reconcialition after paledtine in no longer occupied while you support the status quo by saying palestinians are also blood thirty for no reason

[–] CerealKiller01@lemmy.world -2 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

I'm a bit surprised that on two (or is it three?) separate occasions I said I'd feel the way Palestinians feel towards Israel, and you still insist I think they're bloodthirsty for no reason.

You are bullshitting. You still can't admit that israel was created by ethenically cleansing palestinians and that israelis always voted for more colonization. You still can't admit that you was lying about Iran seeking nukes. You still act like Isrsel attacks Iran to defend itself rsther thsn to colonize more by destorying the countries who give palestinians arms to fight occupation
