    I remember from history class that a boat of Jewish refugees was turned away from several ports during WW2. Wild to have lived long enough to see that reason completely flip and have a decadent cruise turned away for supporting genocide.

        Also:

        Israeli=/=Israeli government

        I don’t care if you think all Israeli’s approve of their government, ultimately those are different things.

        Well, yeah. But the Israeli population is 75% Jewish and their leadership even more so. I’m holding my neighbor responsible for genocide, I’m holding Israel responsible for genocide. A critique of Israel is not an attack on Jews.

        Israel exists because there wasn’t anywhere in the world that would grant Jews asylum in WW2. Rejecting boatloads of Jews is continuing the strong case for the need for a Jewish state.

        And you can’t call Jews living in Israel “colonists” as if they can “go back to Europe” now. They can’t leave Israel now,

        On one hand there’s a large number of people that want to “wipe Israel off the map” and on the other hand we have European countries not allowing Jews to enter. So what is the meaning behind “wipe Israel off the map” now?

        I used to think a Jewish state wasn’t necessary, though I didn’t have a problem with there being one. I figured we’d never go back to a to the dark times of the past. But now I’m absolutely convinced that a Jewish state is 100% necessary. So… congratulations, protesters?

          The Israelis are colonists who are committing a genocide in order to expand their colony.

          I’m 70 years old and have always supported Israel until now, but I am starting to believe that the world would be better off without Israel. They function with a complete absence of honor and humanity, and completely lack the ability to compromise fairly. Israel is an irritant to a peaceful world.

          They are called colonists because they are litterly colonizing land in occupied territories. The government consists of parties that openly call for this.

    Good. Fuck them. Evil bastards.

    They are feasting while they starve millions to death a few miles away.

      It’s not Greece. It’s the protesters. The Greek government is notoriously close to the Zionists. About as stupid too.
