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.

Motherfucker do you even know about Wounded Knee? The Trail of Tears?
"were moved"
How the fuck you think they were moved?
Wow! There’s more then one example of fucking genocide in the world! Who would have guessed???
I was just reminded of the fact how the ghetto was specifically cordoned off in a city made specifically for the isolated “sub human class”, before the fascistic military of the occupier slowly tightened the noose and liquidated the city with endless artillery bombardment, carpet bombing, and roving extermination squads, until all the inhabitants were exterminated. A situation identical to Gaza.
Do you think I don’t know anything about the endless colonial genocide and violence towards Native Americans? Jesus, I wasn’t arguing with you.
Sorry for the harsh language but no I think you do know about it but just not how much it did have in line with industrialized slaughter that the Nazis did.
For example buffalo skulls and native scalps were valued equally in state mandated bounties because they literally paid militiamen and frontier settlers by the kill to exterminate them as efficiently as possible to pave the way for settlers.
I apologize if I was aggressive and defensive as well. I do not want to even begin to seem like I am attempting to say that the depravity of both genocides was not equal. I was attempting to say that the methods used may have had overlap, but were extremely different. State mandated bounty hunts are a sick extermination tactic, as were the multitude of other depraved methods used, but it is not similar (Note that does not mean it is lesser to, or less important) to a system in which a psychopathic man spends months refining a camp system so that he can exterminate 2,000 people every hour round the clock, 365 days a year, at the camp he oversees that kills a further 10,000 a day from disease, malnutrition, gunshot, exhaustion, and torture. Then that being only one camp out of hundreds in a system designed to leave no trace of its targets in only a decades time.
