A boy stands on a Tul Karm street watching as Israeli troops move toward the city’s refugee camp. Soldiers fire shots from hundreds of meters away and one of their bullets slams into the boy’s chest. Qais Nasrallah was 14 at his death

    Apparently if you think the murder of a boy from hundreds of yards away is wrong, you’re “pro-Hamas”. They’re really working hard to make Hamas look like the good guys.

      Also, those who call people who are against the murder of children antisemites, are implying that murdering children is a Jewish thing to do.

      Imagine just how much of a Modern Nazi one needs to be that one’s defense of one’s own acts or those of one’s allies, makes Hamas look like the good guys whilst at the same time implying that murding children is a Jewish practice.

        Not only do they make Hamas look like the good guys, Israel has put the world into a position where Iran, a nation run by theocratic despots who brutalize women and sponsor terror, is the calmer actor in international missle attacks!

        That’s precisely why I consider conflating anti-Zionism as anti-semitic is itself anti-semitic. Because it is Zionists trying to tie the Jewish identity and Jewishness as a whole to everything Israel does. Which is just insulting to all Jewish peoples.

          Zionists are using Jews as human shields. Actual Judeophobic incidents have increased in the past half year solely because of Israel’s actions, and I realized this when I saw a headline about a man that raped a Jewish woman “to avenge Palestine”. Also the agent provocateurs that the Israel lobby has been sending to college campuses create distrust among student groups, especially toward Jewish members. It’s a very sick act. Some groups that counter that negative force, though, are If Not Now and Jewish Voices for Peace.

          Btw, it’s refreshing to read some sane, reality-based takes, so thank you guys for that.
