Who the fuck wants an embassy for genocide on their soul?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago

Embassies are integral for international relationships with both friend and foe. Despite how much more news of war is placed in front of modern people via electronics, war is much more rare than it was a thousand years ago. That is because we have ways to communicate and negotiate even with people we hate.

Fuck Israel, they're absolute fools to start cutting relations with any EU state.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago

I imagine the only reason is so you can have pressure on their diplomats to end the genocide

Based Ireland.

Using "Anti-semitic" here seems to deny Arabs their existence. Strange that

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

This is ironic as the arbs are a semitic people too

[–] [email protected] 12 points 6 days ago

whatever Ireland is doing they should keep doing it to close a terrorist states embassy.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 6 days ago

Hey Ireland ya could do something real fucken funny to the Israelis. After all they are about as bad as the English.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

“Israeli” embassies should not exist anywhere.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Bibi clearly has aggressive dementia to think cutting all diplomatic ties with any EU state is a good idea. Even if USA, Canada, and UK still provide military equipment and training they need the other NATO members for food, transit, and other support across Europe into the middle east.

He's really setting himself up for collapse of the Israel government.

Anybody who doesn't have anti-israel policies at this point is a piece of shit.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This Jew whole-heartedly agrees with you.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago

Fortunately we have had anti-zionist voices for as long as the idea of Zionism existed

[–] [email protected] 96 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Shouting about antisemitism every single time someone criticizes the GOVERNMENT of Israel surely will stop working sometime?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It works on boomers and germans.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I'm German and it didn't work on me so shut your trap

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago

not individuals, but German government

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

How are you not in prison? I thought they arrested Germans who protested the genocide, no? I even saw them attacking Jews in the name of "antisemitism"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Are you serious or is that sarcasm?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I am serious. The German police arrested Jews in the name of antisemitism.

It does sound absurd, but it also happened in the US on college campuses

afaict the greatest threat of antisemitism in the past year has been police attacking Jews in the name of "preventing antisemitism"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

From what I looked up right now people where arrested for use of signs of unconstitutional organizations, defamation, incitement to racial hatred, bodily harm and property damage.

I couldn't find anything about Jews being arrested for being antisemitic so do you have some sources for me?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Well the problem is the police conflait anti Zionism with anti semitism. Same issue in the US.

Peacefully say that Israel is committing a genocide and should not exist because the Nakba, and they'll (wrongly) say you're spreading antisemitic hate speech and arrest you.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago

So you got no source then? For anything?

I don't trust the news 100% but if I find dozens of articles on different sites saying one thing and almost nothing saying the other thing it's obvious what I think to be more believable.

Also, both sides exaggerate their stories so nothing I haven't seen with my own eyes is trustworthy to begin with.

You should stop believing you can seperate problems so black and white. There's always more to it and the Middle Eastern stuff didn't start yesterday but it's been going on for centuries and is so muddy that even people whose job it is have a hard time understanding what is going on.

So my opinion is fuck the perpetrators on both sides and peace for the victims.
