@DarkNightoftheSoul thanks for your input. The protestors carrying swastikas and graffiti indicating support for literal genocide and the destruction of the Jewish state speaks for itself. So do the morally inverted accusations of genocide, tokenizing of Jews holding minority views, and casually swapping out “Jew” for “Zionist”.
If anyone doesn’t want to look the realities in the face, I’m not able to help them.
Again, thanks for your input.
@DarkNightoftheSoul The Hamas charter specifically and transparently states that their mission is to kill all Jews anywhere on the planet. I encourage you to go read their charter and believe them when they say such things.
As for the protests, this article outlines a specific Penn incident. https://whyy.org/articles/penns-interim-president-warns-campus-protestors/
You may also wish to look at other campus protests where signs have included the language of "Final Solution" and depicted Jewish stars going into trashcans.
How could you not see?
@DarkNightoftheSoul It may be a misunderstanding, but the misunderstanding seems willful.
Israel did not create terrorism. An Egyptian man named Yasser Arafat is properly the godfather of Palestinian violence. Hamas is an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood in Cairo.
I don't know what agreement you mean. Substituting the word "Zionist" for "Jew" is cheap, common misdirection to give antisemitism the gloss of neutrality.
I'm going to make this my last response. I hope you find peace.
@DarkNightoftheSoul From the bottom of my heart and the core of my marrow, I genuinely hope you find peace.
