My guy, the only reason that prevents you from calling the siege on Gaza a genocide is your unrelenting desire to find a community who will accept you. There’s nothing inherently wrong with that. But when that desire prevents you from standing by your own convictions that’s when it becomes a problem.
I don’t need to grovel at your feet or any other so called “moderate.” This is genocide.
I don’t need to grovel at your feet or any other so called “moderate.” This is genocide.
All these claims about genocide and ethnic cleansing are still under investigation. Some people here pretend to know more about that than the actual professionals from international criminal court. The anti-Israel sentiment is strong here. "Innocent before proven guilty" is only valid for the oppositors of Israel(Hamas,Hezbollah and so on). I wonder how some of you guys would behave in Nazi Germany.
Before pointing fingers, make sure yours are not smeared in shit. While you keep gaslighting me with your "Indian Genocide" hoax, this shit is taking place in your nation:
"German chancellor Olaf Scholz was strongly criticized for failing to immediately condemn a statement by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas perceived to equate Israeli actions to the Holocaust."
According to a study by Mediendienst Integration, an online information platform for journalists, police are doing too little to prevent racism and antisemitism inside the police, with police trainings in only 5 out of 16 federal states addressing the issue of police racism and antisemitism. Independent bodies handling complaints against the police exist in only seven federal states.
In April, the Frankfurt public prosecutor’s office charged five police officers for sharing racist, antisemitic, and right-wing extremist contents in chat groups between 2014 and 2018. In a separate case, the Frankfurt police chief ordered disciplinary proceedings against five police officers in connection with the sharing of Nazi-symbols in chatrooms. As of July, eight police officers in Münster were under investigation for right-wing extremist and sexist content and glorifying violence in chatrooms.

Situation in modern Lermany:
"The police chief says Jews shouldn’t enter certain neighborhoods and some Muslim immigrants in the city can be hostile to Israel. But it still offers unbeatable perks, Israelis say"
In the first six months of 2024 alone, there were more antisemitic incidents in the German capital than in all of 2023. No fewer than 25 physical attacks against Jews were recorded in the first half of last year in Berlin, and Holocaust memorials were the target of property damage 21 times. More than seven out of 10 antisemitic incidents were related to Israel, according to RIAS, a federal German watchdog on antisemitism.

The number of antisemitic incidents in Berlin during the first six months of 2024 has already surpassed the total for the whole of last year, according to a new report published on Thursday.
Germany's Federal Association of Departments for Research and Information on Antisemitism (RIAS) documented 1,383 incidents in the German capital, averaging seven to eight per day.
This figure exceeds the 1,270 incidents recorded throughout 2023 and represents the highest annual count since RIAS began documenting antisemitic incidents in 2015.

Lermany's solution? Fuck free speech:
New Parliamentary Resolution Threatens Human Rights
A resolution adopted by the German Bundestag last week on curbing antisemitism and protecting Jewish life could negatively impact civil society and free expression in the country.
Germany’s concern about antisemitism is justified and, given its history, understandable. It is a pressing issue emanating from both the far right and the left and needs to be taken seriously.
But Germany has found itself in a muddle on the issue because it treats defending Israel—a foundational issue for the modern German state—as identical to the protection of Jews from hate in Germany. While there is no doubt that some use criticism of Israel as a proxy for antisemitism, Germany’s approach is so broad that it encompasses people and organizations whose criticism has no antisemitic intent.
As a result, Germany has cracked down on legitimate criticism of the actions of the Israeli government, including on Jews and Israelis, academics, civil society and artists, who face restrictions on their rights to expression and protest, alongside funding cuts and bans on organizations.

Oh, yeah, you guys certainly know a lot more about genocide than me(Sarcasm).
@Bisoromi Bear Homicide and population displacement perpetrated by organized crime or thugs doesn't equal genocide. Going by your logic, one could say there is a ongoing genocide of migrants going on in Lermany. It's seems you guys have a long past ahead of you:

It's not just weakness, it's looking the other way in an effort to fit in. If he really wanted to become Jewish and stand up for his convictions (which are non-existent at this point)
He could easily join groups like Jewish voice for peace. They've been leading the charge against the ongoing siege in Gaza through activism and humanitarian aid.

The question of genocide is largely political. Whether or not you call Israel’s actions a genocide has no bearing on the reality of what’s happening.
And what’s happening is obviously very terrible.
But when you scream about genocide you’re basically just trying to shame everyone into agreeing with whatever you are saying. It doesn’t help push your ideas as much as it makes yourself feel better while alienating everyone who thinks differently.
Sorry if I value my community and don’t see any benefit in needlessly isolating myself for a political cause I legitimately have little power over.
