Everyone seems to like to argue that people who dislike Israel object simply to Israel’s right to exist. What we object to is the fact that they are filming themselves killing women and children.
If a state needs to be allowed to commit genocide in order to exist, it should not be allowed to exist. If it does not need to commit genocide to continue to exist, then why does it do so?
I’m not sure which part of my comment you believe suggests Israel is acting appropriately in Gaza. I am directly addressing this recent trend of merging the real and valid criticism of Israel, with some unfortunately loaded language which supporters of Israeli violence exploit to minimize said criticism.
It’s absolutely insane that merely saying “hey, your criticism is valid enough that you don’t need to merge your language with neo nazis” is even the slightest bit controversial.
