Can someone please calmly explain how blocking a freeway across an ocean and a country on a different continent, is supposed to have any effect on a political issue in the middle east?

    …he said to the Jew. Op literally said the reason for Israel’s existence is oil interests.

    Israel IS an apartheid state. Fuck the Israeli government and fuck Netenyahu especially. But that doesn’t make OP right

      Jewish people can be antisemitic, lmao.

      Equating zionism with jewishness is antisemitic

      Some of my family didn’t survive a death camp to be used as a cudgel for a settler colonial project.

      That argument shows complete disregard for the millions of Jews living there and the sequence of events that led to the need for a sovereign Jewish state in the first place

      This is using the holocaust to justify Israel, it is ahistorical and disgusting.

      The reason for the creation of the Israeli state where it is was absolutely a political decision by the big Western powers (just like the repeated backing of Arab religious fanaticism over secular nationalism, btw). If the primary concern was providing a home for displaced Jews, land in Germany or the US would have made much more sense.
