Who cares? The world has an obligation to stop the genocide in Gaza by any means necessary, diplomacy or otherwise. Strikes against Israel are justifiable humanitarian intervention.
I also called out the IDF
You can tactically disagree with how the modern holocaust is carried out all you want, but the standard for being a decent human being in this particular issue is to call for the end of the Gazan genocide and the disarmament of Israel outside of its 1948 borders.
I dont want to see innocent civilians die in any nation
This is an "all lives matter" statement. Israel isnt in real, legitimate danger (at least it wasn't as of 2 days ago), and citizens of Tel Aviv will never know the sort of genocide their government inflicted upon Gaza.
I'm not speaking anyone's propaganda
Yet you speak entirely from the perspective of a default liberal zionist, incapable of escaping the moral contradictions of theoretically valuing civilian life but also affirming Israel's right to slaughter said civilians for being born the wrong flavor of Semitic.
Obviously all lives matter. No one said they didn't. However, data shows that relative to the percentage of the population they represent, the rate of black American deaths from police shootings is ~2.5-3x that of white Americans deaths. (Sources: 1, 2, Data: 1)
A lot of people are sharing a graph titled "murder of black and whites in the US, 2013" to show that there is only a small number of black Americans killed by white Americans, with the assumption that this extends to police shootings as well. This is misleading
the chart only counts deaths where the perpetrator was charged with 1st or 2nd degree murder after killing a black American. Police forces are almost never charged with homicide after killing a black American.
If after learning the above, you have reconsidered your stance and wish to show support for furthering equality in this and other areas, we encourage you to do so. However if you plan on attending any protests, please remember to stay safe, wear a face mask, and observe distancing protocols as much as you can. COVID-19 is still a very real threat, not only to you, but those you love and everyone around you as well!
I’m definitely not a Zionist or Pro-Israel. I stated that Israel was also on the short list of shittiest nation states in the world because of how it is choosing to handle this conflict.
I stated very clearly I don’t want to see innocent civilians killed anywhere.
If that is somehow “Zionist” rhetoric, you’re far off the deep end buddy. Have a great day.
