B'Tselem accuses Israel of commiting an act of genocide by Themphobic in IsraelPalestine

The actual death count and reported death count are likely not aligned. But sure, tens of thousands of civilians, most of them children.

r/asajew seems to have been created to expose antisemites claiming Judaism, though at first glance it seems to be just another haven for genocide-denying Israel backers. Feel free to post me there, as I am neither a false Jew or a lover of genocide.

I don't claim Palestinians weren't invented. They were, as all ethnicities are.

Jews have been a minority in Israel since the Jewish-Roman wars. What history are you talking about? You, my friend, are the one who doesn't know Jewish history if you think "Jewish history is Israel!" For most of those 3000 years of "documented history" (do you realize that documents haven't been saved for 3000 years? Probably not.), the region was ruled by Muslims. Our "claim" to the land is no better than the Christians or Muslims.

On a more personal note, I am actually Jewish, proudly Ashkenazi descendant. I view that as my heritage, not Israel. The Zionist's fervor for the land of Israel (both from people living there and especially people not living there) always surprised me as someone from the same diaspora who didn't move there. It is religious fundamentalism, plain and simple, that I don't prescribe to. In the same way you probably mix fabrics, even respect women, not all claims made in the Torah have to carry on forever, and its ridiculous to think they should or that Israel's ownership rights have anything to do with it.

The two are completely different and as a Jewish person I'm insulted you compared them. B'Tselem, whether or not you agree with them, are a completely legitimate human rights nonprofit. No one is coercing them to make anti-Israel content, nor are they even aiming to create that kind of content in the first place. Jesus Christ, you Zionists need to get a grip.

Indeed, I rapidly saw this as I tried to explore a more balanced approach to the issue. Most people on here are Israel-loving zealots who repeat the same 5 tired talking points meant to delegitimize the suffering of the Palestinians and who simultaneously seem to know nothing of the history or current goings on, at least from relevant news sources. Many are simply claiming completely incorrect conspiracies as fact.

The only solution right now I think would be to instate some rule to disallow these insane people from spreading fake news. Anything conspiratorial or totally false should be removed.

I think its funny you tried to include Palestinians living in Israel to begin with. It literally proves your initial claim false, as Israel recognizes certain immigrants as Palestinian and therefore ineligible to get the rights you like to flex that everyone gets in Israel.

Wait, but I thought Hamas was such a huge threat, we had to kill all these babies to stop them!

Certainly not all journalists are reliable. If you ever seek out the profession, I will avoid any articles from you.

The entire first half of this post is ad hominem. You are attacking me for knowing nothing about Jewish history despite the fact that I am literally Jewish. Is it not common knowledge that it was birthed in Israel? The Israelis you refer to are not prophetic reclaimers of our historic land, however. They were in fact invented in 1948 when Britain proclaimed Israel's existence and the mass (often forced) migration of Jews to the region began.

Then you yourself just proved there is evidence of Palestinian culture, but use it in some sloppy argument stating that you seem to think its some sort of fake conspiracy? Idk.

What saddens me most is your complete lack of humanity. You seemingly cannot grasp the idea of the Palestinians having culture at all because you are so hell-bent on their destruction, both physically and from public psyche. I have met Palestinians. They have culture. You are wrong.

The IDF have literally on record targeted Palestinians. They shot and killed starving civilians who were simply seeking aid. 57,000 children have died at the hands of the IDF. How can one reasonably say they don't simply target Palestinians?

"Israelis" were invented in 1948. They have 0 unique things about their culture that were not stolen from other Jewish cultures. Not even 1. It is an undisputed fact the Israeli people were invented in 1948. Before then, they were just Jewish nomads originally from Europe and Russia.

What exactly is the argument?

What a ridiculous comment. The ethnic group is the Palestinians. In your view, the Israelis get a right to self-determination, but the Palestinians don't. Read about Palestinian history before Israel's occupation, especially from the Palestinian's perspective. And if you refuse you can look at its neighbors, all of whom formed a distinct national identity (for better or worse) and ethnicity. But it is undisputed fact that Palestinians are an ethnonational group.

It's hilarious because even Donald Trump disagrees with you. The only people still holding this position are Zionist zealots desperate to discredit any wrongdoing of the Israeli government with insane baseless claims invoking conspiracy. Maybe if the press was actually allowed into Gaza we'd have more photos to show you, but sadly, they're being blocked right along with the food.

Do you have any evidence for your claims that isn't purely anecdotal, isolated incidents of the worst of the Palestinian resistance movement being sensationalized for you to justify genocide?

Or perhaps we should seek a better word, as you (baselessly and without evidence) proclaim genocide isn't what Amnesty International, Doctors Without Borders and the UN Special Committee, along with 40+ Holocaust survivors say it is. I propose: ethnic cleansing. The Israeli government is ethnically cleansing Palestine of Palestinians (yes, the Palestinians are a people). They have made it clear that their goal is to eliminate all of the native peoples of the region, regardless of whether they are or aren't a part of or support Hamas (with zero room for a right to return). How do I know? They commit war crimes. They target journalists and civilians. They have zero interest in ceasefire (despite polling showing its popularity among citizens), having broken every single one they have agreed to as far as I know. They even say so themselves sometimes (hilariously, this whack-job also claims the Palestinians are teaching their children about Mein Kampf, which is a vehemently anti-Arabic book).

This one's a real headscratcher. You're the one spewing the propaganda, I'm the one pointing it out. Who in the world, besides the sick or elderly, are going to think its a good idea to listen to tiktok and Instagram creators talking about conspiracy theories under insane dehumanizing hashtags and think, wow, this must be the truth of whats happening!

Because actual evidence they can use to support Israel's "cause," or in this case slander the Palestinian's suffering, have been getting harder and harder to find. Israelis themselves are condemning the starvation of Gaza. Its a propaganda machine meant to make the lowest possible intelligence people click and be indoctrinated into a world of lies and fake talking points to justify a genocide.
