Way to go, Florida man
Because if they really were Palestinians, obviously that would’ve been perfectly A-OK?
Racists are never the sharpest tools in the shed. Most racist man I ever knew was never wronged by anyone except people of his own race, go figure.
I miss the old days when all racism was bad.
at the core of every genocide is some sickeningly arbitrary difference that not even the people enacting the genocide can fully discern. Palestinians are indigenous to the Levant, just like Jews were. they just survived the ethnic cleansing enacted by the romans differently. similarly by both russia, and many Ukrainians telling of the origins of the rus, they originated from Kyiv. back in the 1930s and 40s, the Germans had to invent more and more arbitrary ways to identify Jews because since resettlement in Galitsye (today divided between Germany, Chzechia, Poland, russia, and Ukraine) Jews integrated themselves into the indigenous population (in large part thanks to unprecedented religious tolerance on behalf of the people of Galitsye and later Poland) meaning telling who was and wasn’t Jewish was hard to impossible for the German officers responsible for deciding who to kill.
my point is this: arbitrarily killing Palestinians is antisemitic. it runs even a little deeper than simply “Palestinians are semitic, just like me” given that their cultural traditions are shared. it gets into violence against my sister is violence against me. harm against Palestinians is harm against Jews. once there are no more identifiably Palestinian people left to kill, next will come the Jews who aren’t identifiably non-Palestinian enough. and who decides who that is? where does the killing stop?
the best way to avoid being killed in a genocide is to prevent genocide from happening. the second best way is to bring ongoing genocides to an end. unfortunately, it is falling to us, the populace, to defend ourselves from the military apparatus of the imperial powers of the globe. a great battle is about to unfold between the forces of good, evil, and indifference, just as it has approximately every 80 years throughout history. part of our aim in thi; battle is to preserve our message that we were here. that there was good in the world even at its worst.
i hope you’ve read a diary of a young girl by anne frank, and understand its gravity. it breaks my heart that a 13 year old saw all of what i’m seeing and chose to make her death meaningful as a story that passes this tale of resistance and kindness in the face of atrocity to me, but the point is that her voice made it through. so please, don’t put her pain to waste. start taking actions you think 80 years from now someone who learns what you did during this time will be proud of, and find inspiring. even if it’s something as simple as documenting the things you see, or growing food to share with your neighbors.
do what our ancestors did when faced with these times, plant trees the shade of which your physical body will never rest under
Careful. Zionists get very sad if you mention that Arabs are Semites.
Fuck the Zionists. FUCK THE ZIONISTS. Zionism is anti-semitic and not just because it’s anti-arab. It’s fuckin’ anti-jewish.
I agree. I was being ironic.
No I know. But I need the Zionists in the back to hear I said FUCK THE ZIONISTS.
Palestinians is antisemitic. it runs even a little deeper than simply “Palestinians are semitic
Antisemitism only means hatred of Jews and nothing else. Trying to water the term down like you’re doing is extremely bad faith and usually done to give cover to antisemites.
That said, yes, many Palestinians have Jewish ancestors.
once there are no more identifiably Palestinian people left to kill, next will come the Jews
That’s some shizo level rambling.
Netanyahu is an antisemite. He says Judaism is the same thing as genocide, and that’s an anti-jewish stereotype.

You gonna tell us you can’t be a Nazi unless you’re in 1940’s Germany sieg heiling to Hitler next? lol
Fucking dumb fuck pedants.
Isn’t it funny what end of this quote Israel is on these days
Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
Don’t tell me how to interface with hatred against my Jewish identity that I have to face every day. Don’t tell me to look at the hate perpetrated in my name against my sisters and not to speak against it, especially when the hatred is deranged and twisted and harms me as well. You’re welcome to disagree with me that our two people’s are intrinsically linked to each other by history and culture, which apparently you do, but this is not a bad faith argument. This is something I believe with my entire heart. Jews and Palestinians are one people. Zionism is an act of hate against both.
You’re welcome to disagree with me that our two people’s are intrinsically linked to each other by history and culture
I agree with that part.
Your abuse of the word antisemitism is what I take issue with.
aren’t israelis technically Palestinians since the region is called Palestine?
Israeli prime minister Golda Meir said she’s a Palestinian.
The use of the word Palestinian changed over time. Before the establishment of Israel Palestinian was often used specifically to refer to Jews living in the holy land. Lots of Jewish founded institutions like airlines, newspapers, sports teams, orchestras were named Palestinian. They changed their names after Israel was founded.
The Arabs used Palestinian as their national identity only after Israel was established. The Palestinian identity as we know it today coalesced in the 1960s.
Before the British Mandate for Palestine, the Arabs in the region tended to identify as Syrian.
Here a link: https://www.britannica.com/place/Palestine
which refutes your claims in the last sentences but surely why should we trust britannica over a zionism apologist who clearly is pandering to their political agenda.
Your link doesn’t say what you claim it does.
I can’t teach you how to read honestly. You made some baseless claims without any evidence. I share a link that disproves your claims (btw I mentioned which in my previous comment). And your response is “nuh uh”.
it will be the year 9999 and we will still be reading about the “Man in Florida”
BTW Free Palestine
Lol you think florida will still be a place past the next 100 years
Florida keys 2: electric boogaloo
Like all for all other Nazi-style movements, Zionists are going into the next stage of ethno-Fascism: the part were the Zionists start killing other members of the ethnicity they claim to represent for “not being White enough”.
(Just go check how they treat Ethiopian Jews is Israel if you have any doubt that they’re a white supremacist movement)
Those evil white supremacists Jews got out of their way to save Ethiopian Jews with covert airlifts. There were continuous efforts to bring Ethiopia Jews to Israel, lead by Natanyahu among others.
Sure there’s prejudice around skin color and discrimination, but isn’t this the case all around the world? Ethiopian Israelis have their struggles, but overall their community is doing very well. Bibi Netanyahu has many times publicly denounced racism against Ethiopian Jews and met with victims of violence. Here Bibi celebrates an Ethiopian IDF officer publicly as a hero to standing ovations. There are special scholarships for Ethiopian Jews to higher education and integrate them better into society. The IDF makes an effort in this field as well.
Let’s listen to what Ethiopian Jews have to say about this,

Why do black Palestinians in Gaza mostly live in a quarter named Al Abeed meaning literally slave?
Nazi-style movements, Zionists
Oh it’s blatant antisemitism time again.
What about identifying the fascist nature of zionism is antisemitic, in your mind?
It’s Holocaust denial.
Uhhhhhh no it’s not. There is nothing about believing that Israel is committing a genocide against the Palestinian people (they are) that prevents someone from simultaneously believing that the holocaust happened and was just as bad as is commonly understood (it did and it was).
It’s like saying that accusing me of being a thief is denying that time I was robbed.
I like that you’re theft and robbery as comparisons, because these have a major difference. Robbery always includes violence or the threat of violence.
You shoplift a candy bar from a Korean owned shop. Your fathers house was burgled by Koreans who killed your mother and stole all jewelry and the car.
Not the same.

I do not celebrate genocide.
Ignoring the fascist nature of Zionism is is ignoring the holocaust that is currently occurring? Fuck out of here.
Nice Holocaust denial you got there. What’s happening in Gaza is terrible but not like Holocaust.
One of the Israelis who got shot posted that he was the target of anti-Semitism and ends his message with ‘Death to Arabs’
Get shot by Zionist for looking too Arab
Post “Death to Arabs”
Zionism is one hell of a cult.
Leopards, meet faces.
So basically, everyone involved in this incident is a terrible person. Lovely.
