  • The problem is that Zionists like to say “Israel = Jews”, raging when you say something anti-Zionist that you’re being an anti-semite. However, what Musk is doing is actually saying Jews are the problem. That’s antisemitism. That is not helping Jews nor is it helping anyone who is anti-Zionist because now people will say “see? Anti-Zionist equals anti-Semite, just look at Musk if you don’t believe me.”





  • B’tselem, The Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories says the following:

    Although Israel declared an end to its military administration in Gaza, it continues to control critical aspects of life there. It controls all border crossings by land, apart from Rafah, as well as Gaza’s sea and air space. This control allows Israel to exclusively monitor the movement of people and goods in and out of Gaza, which it regulates according to Israeli interests. This holds true even when Gaza residents wish only to transit through Israel in order to reach the West Bank or other countries.

    Regarding moving of the goal post, you brought up Egypt, not me.

    If you want to continue discussing in good faith, please stick to the talking points.






  • So, let’s look at the definition of genocide and see where Israel lands here.

    Definition

    Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide

    Article II

    In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

    Killing members of the group;

    • Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
    • Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
    • Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
    • Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

    Source: the UN

    So; let’s have a quick look at these points:

    (1) Over 11,000 deaths, majority of civilians. And I’m just talking about deaths since Oct 7, I did not include any numbers from before that. Check.

    (2) Illegal occupation and cutting off food, water, electricity and free movement. Check.

    (3) Unknown to me.

    (4) Unknown to me.

    The head of the UN, Craig Mokhiber, just retired and called it unequivocally a genocide, here’s a source for that, but if you don’t like this source, you can just Google this and find plenty of other sources.

    So, please tell me. How does Israel not fit as a genocidal regime?
