The problem of course is that people around the world look at their Jewish community or individuals as if they were Israel, hence attacks and stars of David painted on Jewish homes. There were 100,000 people supporting Palestine in London today, I don’t remember as many people protesting or supporting Jews when Hamas terrorists killed 1400 Jews for no reason……
Surely you're too long in the tooth to be this ignorant. Is slaughter of civilians ever justified? No. Are there reasons behind this horrific course of action? Yes. Do many times this die at the hands of the Israeli government. Yes. Did Israel itself form from terror groups who slaughtered Arabs, murdered British citizens to achieve their idea of freedom? Yes. Those protesting today would like include a big proportion of jews too. Many of the very right wing Israeli government have went full mask off with their beliefs that non-jews, particularly arabs are less than human, their children worth less. They are openly committing war crimes. If they want rid of Hamas only, why are children killed in the street in the West Bank for protesting (Hamas was elected in Gaza, not West Bank)
*Brig. Gen. Yitzhak Segev, who was the Israeli military governor in Gaza in the early 1980s. Segev later
told a New York Times reporter that he had helped finance the Palestinian Islamist movement as a “counterweight” to the secularists and leftists of the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Fatah party, led by Yasser Arafat (who himself
referred to Hamas as “a creature of Israel.”)
“The Israeli government gave me a budget,” the retired brigadier general confessed, “and the military government gives to the mosques.”
“Hamas, to my great regret, is Israel’s creation,” Avner Cohen, a former Israeli religious affairs official who worked in Gaza for more than two decades,
told the Wall Street Journal in 2009. Back in the mid-1980s, Cohen even wrote an official report to his superiors warning them not to play divide-and-rule in the Occupied Territories, by backing Palestinian Islamists against Palestinian secularists. “I … suggest focusing our efforts on finding ways to break up this monster before this reality jumps in our face,” he wrote* Note- backing of extreme Islamist movements in Middle Eastern countries with either training, money and/or arms, was first pioneered by the US and Brits.
The problem of course is that people around the world look at the behaviour of terrorist groups or individuals as if they were representative of all Muslims or anyone brown/with a beard.
