This might just sound like the same old shit others voice with the recent gaza genocide, but ive hated israel for far longer. In high school i read a book called the olive grove, its based on a true story of a Palestinian family that lost every thing to the zionist movement. It follows 3 generation of the family from the first world war till after the second. It tells of the horrors they faced by the us backed terrorists taking their home and land turning away from the atrocities being committed. Its heart breaking, and when i read it in 2009 i didnt fully understand but seeing all the shit done now, i just think this cycle of hate started and can not be stopped.

Idk what else to say, i mean i could go on and on but i dont have the mental capacity to do so while drinking. I recommend others to read the book, it was a very good read when i was a high schooler and i plan to start it again as soon as i can find my copy.

Here is a link to the book if anyone is interested in reading it https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2327988.The_Olive_Grove

    Nah. Hes being downvoted because the Israeli government isn’t doing anything as evil as the holocaust. And he keeps insulting the people that disagree. Its not on the same level, even slightly, but it’s still fucking evil. By all means, hate Israel for this. I have since I was a kid and the IDF killed my babysitter in cold blood. They’re not nazis, but theyre evil genocidal monsters who should be reviled nontheless.

      Besides gaz chambers, i would say they are similar. Both used famine as a strategy and instead of mass shooting Israel is doing mass bombardment
