Comment on Live reaction to ICC ruling
cogman@lemmy.world 9 months ago“I mean, sure Israel is murdering thousands of children, expelling people from their homes, bombing a sovereign nation unprovoked, and Israel is bulldozing homes to make way for new settlements. But other nations do bad stuff too so this is obviously antisemitic”
What’s antisemitic is conflating the actions of Israel with Jewish people. Jews aren’t inherently fascist and fascist Jews aren’t all Jews.
This is also fucking disgusting as antisemitism is a real thing. Trying to conflate it with Israel critique makes people take antisemitism less seriously which is also dangerous.

Thousands of children? Lmao Stop watching al Jazeera news
cogman@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Oh? What’s the official number? Perhaps you can report how many children Israel has counted.

How should I know? Go to Gaza and ask

I’d love to, but Isreal seems intent on bombing everyone who enters Gaza. Aid workers, children, and evacuees alike.

Then how can you claim the statement is a lie?
Right, because it makes Israel look bad. Anything that makes them look bad is a lie right?

Start watching any news. I would love to see any count that has the number of kids dead not in the thousands.

Yeah I’m sure Hamas using human shields has nothing to do with children being killed as well.
Damn IDF, why can’t they just accept to be shot at if there’s a human shield in the way! Hamas must live on

Is there a Zionist argument bingo card we can play? You’re hitting a lot of the classics here.
