A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

what do u mean wtf, did u think that just because their goals of stopping the american empire aligned with ours they were "good guys", the Russian government has always had a very close relationship with israel, and has always been very supportive of it.
Oh sorrry, stopping ISIS’s rampage and terror against minorities in Syria is so evil. Russia should just have just sat back and allowed ISIS to do whatever they wanted, nay, they should have supported it. Stopping ISIS, so evil!
Meanwhile the current rulers killed people for no reason. Shia? Head off, Yazidi? Head off. Alevi? Head off. Kurd? You guessed it, head off. Isn'treal? Can't kowtow to it any harder.
Fuck off with this anti-Yazidi shit. Even putting your accusations on the same level as the active genocidal actions that ISIS took undermines the horrors that the Yazidis have endured. Honestly, you and every other ISIS sympathizer can go fuck yourselves.
You said you support the people yet you don't mention the criminal sanctions enforced by the US and lackeys on the people of Syria, you literally don't care lmao.
You inherently did, you try and deflect to critiques of Assad in order to downplay ISIS crimes against humanity against the Yazidi people. You are doing that to try and distract from the crimes that ISIS commits and downplay the role that Assad played in protecting people from ISIS. Attacking Assad is defending terrorists.
You mean the Assad regime that was part of the literal resistance Axis against Israel?
Who killed millions, the assad regime or the criminal blockade enforced by the US and lackeys?
I know when people are disingenuos when they completely avoid talking about economic blockades endured by these "comically evil regimes".
You mean the Assad government that specifically asked for Russia's help
I fucking wonder why. Almost like he didn't want to waste soldiers or put his own life at such a high risk when the walls were coming down
