Reddit gets a seizure when any Middle Eastern-related article is posted.

Maybe the Middle East should stop oppressing the living heck out of immigrants, women, and LGBT people. Then we wouldn’t have to complain.

The only nation in that part of the world that respects human rights is Israel. That’s it. And Reddit hates Israel.

You should pretend it is, cause if you go around telling people that you honestly believe an apartheid state respects human rights they may mistake you for a fucking idiot.

The last apartheid state ceased to exist 20 years ago (South Africa). Israel is a multiethnic, egalitarian democracy that represents ALL citizens. Yes, even Muslims. Even Palestinians. 20% of Israelis are Arabs .

But god help you if you're a non-citizen living in territory they've illegally annexed

ChairmanUzamaoki t1_iy3v1t4 wrote

Sounds an awful lot like how apartheid South Africa described itself. Multicultural, democratic, representing all citizens.

Just some had better representation but let's not bring that up. 20% of Israelis are Arabs! Therefore everything is perfect for them :)

But I already saw you support Israel unconditionally, think for some reason the entire Levant belongs to them and the people of these lands that have been there for generations should be displaced, and someone disagreeing with you makes them antisemitic LMAO I'm not anti Semitic, I'm just anti dipshit.

Don't worry about responding tho, I'm not gonna engage and you already have plenty of people willing to argue

Why don’t the Palestinians who refuse to integrate just leave? Their holy land of Saudi Arabia is only a few hundred kilometers away. They should ALL go there and leave Israel to Israeli people.

I wonder what it's like to be on this level of cognitive dissonance

SafeHayven t1_iy3kfig wrote

I knew as soon as I mentioned Israel the antisemites would come out of the woodwork to downvote and leave comments like this.

Let me make myself clear: I support Israel unconditionally, think it should own the entire Levant, and believe any threat to Israel is an existential threat to the Jewish people, especially African and Asian Jews (who have found safety and refuge in Israel after facing Islamic antisemitism in their countries of birth). 🇮🇱

I love how you assume I'm antisemitic because I said you're cognitively dissonant with literally no additional information. Somehow you actually became more cognitively dissonant. Impressive.

Shitting on (admittedly much worse) Islamic theocracies while defending an ethnostate is not the good look you think it is. It is not antisemitic to be against ethnostates. Israel is not the same thing as Jewish people. Don't conflate the two.

Blu3Stocking t1_iy5nps8 wrote

I agree Middle eastern theocracies aren’t the greatest but in what world is less rights or bad living conditions or even no gay rights worse than straight up murdering people and/or displacing them from their own homes?

Fanace5 t1_iy9246n wrote

Islamic theocracies also tend to do that though.

Israel is not an ethnostate. There are non-Jewish (including Palestinian) citizens. It is a reaction to Europe’s ethnostate campaign in the 1940s that left over half of Jews worldwide dead.

Please just stop.

Fanace5 t1_iy3lghb wrote

Israel is blatantly governed in the interest of the jewish people and nobody else. That is an ethnostate.

So Isreal is not an ethnostate, but saying anything bad about Isreal is being antisemitic?

Bolt_995 t1_iy3qqia wrote

Your whole argument fell apart when you alluded that hating Israel is antisemitism.

Blazerer t1_iy3mjnw wrote

Reddit doesn't hate Israel, Most Redditors tend to dislike terrorist regimes. Bombing civilians, media organisations, and targeting reporters woth snipers tends to qualify as such.

"BuT HaMaS" two wrongs don't make a right. Israel claiming anything they do is retaliation just shows that their government has no right being anywhere near power. Israeli's continuously voting far-right nutjobs into power shows the population isn't much better either.

Yeah they love human rights!… unless you’re Palestinian like I am, in which case they suddenly change their stance on “human rights” and begin killing and displacing you.

Also gay marriage is illegal in Israel lmao this level of cognitive dissonance is repulsive

Al Jazeera is an Islamic rag that is incredibly antisemitic and biased. This flat out never happened.

If Palestinians (the ones who don’t want to integrate into Israeli society) don’t like Israel, why don’t they just move? There are 22 Arab nations they can choose from. Why don’t they move to their holy land of Saudi Arabia? Why don’t they go to Iraq, or Morocco, or anywhere else in the Islamic world and leave Jewish people and democratic non-Jewish Israelis alone?

BootyBrown t1_iy49lcd wrote

Theres multiple articles you can just google and find, how can you make this up when isreal recognizes they tore down this school. You obviously dont care about truth, when its something bad about Isreal "media is against us"

Lmfaoo yeah muslims who have been living in this area for generations, even before your zionist came to power, should just up and leave and go to saudi... wtf? West Bank is Palestine, why is Isreal forcfully moving into these area, cant they just live in peace in Tel Aviv?

Palestine is also a muslim holy land, as much as you want them gone Al Aqsa is still there.

🤡 democratic lmao

Why don't people who are indigenous to an area just move out? Are you seriously advocating for colonialism?

He is.

Has the guts to sit behind a computer screen and state that Palestinians need to integrate into Israeli society, and they should leave if they can’t.
