This sets out why people vote for the likes of DeSantis, Trump and the MAGA crowd.

Yeah, "I prefer De Santis as a candidate" and "I care about homelessness" aren't exactly compatible positions to hold.

Round 'em all up and ship 'em all off to another state. That seems to be Ronny's sophisticated way of dealing with problems.

People picking on Trump on an internet messageboard apparently.

I'm happy to demonise those Israelis who support the actions of the current government. They are complete and utter scum.

As a native Tasmanian, it brings back memories of this:

All you are doing is watering down criticism of Israel's atrocities by falsely labelling it as anti-Semitism. It won't wash.

What has Number37 posted that is "nourishing and watering anti-Semitism"? Because his being critical of the state of Israel, its government and the IDF is not doing that.

Easy to do when you are not in their situation.

Puts the number of Israelis killed on October 7th into perspective then.

This sums up the Republicans. https://www.facebook.com/share/r/7jewpE5wxJhneKso/?mibextid=xCPwDs

Exactly. There is context to Israel's response too. Doesn't mean I agree with that response.

You still don't understand what context is.

No low is too low for Israel it would seem.

Exactly.

Nope. It's getting destroyed because of Israel, which is 100% responsible for its own actions.

The Israeli government is pure evil. Anyone who supports that government is beneath contempt.

I wonder what is the updated number of children slaughtered by the US backed Israel?

As context isnt about justification, it isn't about excusing either. You are welcome to name those who you think are "justifying" or "excusing" the events of October 7th by the way.

Someone else who doesn't understand the difference between context and justification.

Yes, it is a deliberate strategy of sanitising the language used in relation to Israel's atrocities.

Don't lie. It's not exactly what you said.....at all. I hold Israel solely accountable for their actions, not the conflict. A distinction that is apparently beyond your comprehension. Those actions have caused a humanitarian disaster in Gaza. That crisis has led to the need for aid, on a...

They need aid because of the actions of Israel. Statements like the above put paid to your laughable claims of impartiality.

It's not about Palestine officially being a state, it's about other countries recognising their statehood. There is a difference. 138 countries currently do that as far as I can tell, Lsta062's point was that Switzerland isn't one of them. In that respect, Switzerland has fallen in with the...

I've never been able to understand how Jewish people who have been so terribly oppressed themselves can think it's perfectly okay for the Jewish state to oppress others.

If you are not happy with Israel being accused of genocide, we'll instead say they have indulged in mass killing, widespread property destruction, wilful prevention of the necessities of life getting to people in need and forced relocation of a significantly sized population. I mean, we can't...

Israel was just "defending itself".

But they were "distraught and irrational", which apparently lets them off the hook for trying to blockade desperately needed aid.

I'll I'd love to hear these lowlifes tell us the nature of their objections to the aid trucks.

"Bad" is being kind.
