FFS. No one who has really thought about what is happening is condeming Jewish people.
Being Jewish is not the same as being a Zionist.
And being Israeli does not mean you support what is Israel is doing.
And with that said, fuck Boy George and his ridiculous stance. What is happening in Palestine, and has been happening for years, is completely disproportionate to the attack made by Hamas.
And fuck Netanyahu. There’s an international arrest warrant out for him.

You too is avoiding the term genocide? Israel having faie elections and still vote for genociders show that most israelis support colonization and genocide

I didn’t intentionally avoid the term. The United Nations says it’s genocide so it’s genocide.
And my point about Israelis is just to clarify or remind people that not all Israeli’s agree.
I have this aversion to everyone being grouped together and blamed.
There are Israelis and Jewish people who agree that the Israeli government is committing genocide.

I used by wording carefully . I said most israelis support genocide and colonialism . I didn’t say all israelis support it

Don’t know why you’re being down voted. It is objective fact that the overwhelming majority of Israelis support the ethnic cleansing of Gaza and want it done in the West Bank.
A substantial number don’t think enough Palestinians have been killed.
