BOYCOTT FOR PALESTINE

FOA (Friends of Al-Aqsa) have organized a boycott in support of palestine. Here are the key companies to boycott:

HP (Hewlett Packard)

Coca-Cola

Israeli produce

We will be ending our call to boycott

PUMA once the contract with IFA officially dissolves in 2024. Until then, we encourage you to continue boycotting PUMA products.

Please help to spread the word by sending this copypasta to as many blogs as you can and/or going to FOAs website where you can find posters to download and print out

Ok I'm not a copypasta person unless it's memes but like. Look I'm not Palestinian but I'm also a Southwest Asian and my mental health has definitely deteriorated seeing just. Everything. Especially the increase in racism and islamophobia (I'm also muslim) and seeing all the hate crimes and knowing that someone could probably shoot me in the head while I'm writing gay fanfiction in public and justify it by saying that I could've been a dangerous terrorist and therefore my entire family tree must be eradicated-

basically what I'm trying to say is that I'm hoping that making this post on the himbo tourney blog will get some eyes on this. Like. I've been feeling really powerless about this and kinda just like shriveling up and dying lately. Tbh. The world is fxcked right now. In the year of our lord 2024 /ref, here we are post undertale we are being pro-genocide how funny is that haha. It's not funny. It's. It's not. It's not funny . I can't. I've seen too many videos of children dying and crying and I just. I saw the one thing about the kid with cerebral palsy whose parents got shot right in front of them for literally no reason and then they got yelled at by soldiers and like. People literally will look at this and call these people animals?? I saw that term get thrown around a lot. It's just disgusting and like.

have people seen the bingo the literal genocide bingo. People are treating this like a joke like. Do people not realize that Southwest Asian people are like... people??? We're people you know. Like this is mainly targeting Arabs but I've seen stuff about people discriminating against the rest of us too (mainly because they can't tell the difference. Because the idea of not treating Asian cultures as interchangeable applies until you get to Southwest Asia I guess even in progressive circles everyone just says Arab for everything even here I've seen people like-). I'm Persian and I'm still scared someone will cut my life off. I'm 16. Nowruz is next week and I just want to live to it with my family. My mind is inundated wit the tears of the families that had never gotten to have their celebrations. Because of one group on one day.

one group on one day. One group on one day. it's always that. it's always that for people like us.I feel like I'm going insane. It's just 9/11 in America all over again. I wasn't even born for that. But you can just feel it all around you. And now we have the sequel, across the world. But it's used the same way. 7/23. Can't wait for the memes /s. This one thing happens therefore we can dedicate multiple months to killing all of you just making you suffer stripping your dignity you don't deserve anything and we'll make the world hate you because fxck you and then the world goes along with it because nothing good ever happens and I just want to escape from this but every time I go on tumblr it's just this and I know if I ever stop seeing this it means that the worst has happened anyway

and then people try to act like YOU'RE the bigot because you're trying to hold a country's government and military force responsible for war crimes just because the country has its branding in minority groups. How about I make this crystal clear: I don't give a flying fxck about what Israel is, it's what it's doing that matters. I'd be saying nearly the same shzt if they were PERSIAN, and that is MY ETHNICITY. I literally do not care. It doesn't matter. Because killing people is wrong and that should not be a controversial statement but I guess some people like the sound of screams in the morning. The Palestinian death toll has surpassed the 7/23 death toll. And it's still going. And not all the deaths have even been accounted for because bodies are still buried under rubble. Because they're still bombing people and they won't stop. And no one will make them stop.

like I don't give a fxck about Hamas either, I heard some of the members did genuinely say some like directly quoted antisemitic shzt and also they like condoned a racist caricature of a black woman in a magazine I think but I'm not sure about the second one (I know the magazine thing definitely happened but I'm not sure of their like involvement at all-) like. I don't need to suck there dzcks like some people do it's one group of fxcks like I don't. They're just the excuse being used for this. You're bombing the entire population of a country where the majority population is fzcking tater tots. You're attacking children. You are killing children. Paint yourself purple. Dammit. Just. Again it's 9/11 all over again but in another country.

even then like it's like. You know that trope in cartoons that shows up more often than you'd think that was in like Avatar and Korra and RWBY I think where there's like a fictional minority that is oppressed and wants rights and then active protest is represented by an evil terrorist group who attacks people and is the villains of the media and passive protest is always portrayed as good and active protest is evil and there's no nuance and also they just frame the group as just like evil spawned out of nowhere not addressing that they literally would not exist if not for the truly evil system of oppression that basically created them. Like.

You know Hamas only exists because Palestinians were already treated like shzt right? Like they were already displaced and didn't consent to the whole Israel thing and like look up Nakba it's fzcking awful like. Hamas is just a symptom of the disease and there will just be another Hamas if you try to knock it down without actually like. Doing anything about. the fact that Palestinians are oppressed. but people will just act like you can keep punching at Hamas like that'll result in anything like they're the flowers not the roots y'know-

also I'm calling it here, this entire thing is gonna definitely be used down the line by Neo-nazis I mean it kinda already is being used to justify antisemitism but like I saw the stuff of people trying to redefine antisemitism to be synonymous with antizionism and make isrseli and jewish synonymous and to basically gatekeep jewishness from anti-zionist jews (I'm not kidding I actually saw shzt like that) and it's like. Y'all they're gonna turn around in a year or two like "ohhh look at the big bad scary jews- I mean Israelis their identity is literally tied to the genocide of Palestinians they are inherently evil there is no denying it!" (Ignoring the fact that the USA and other bastards of colonization did the same shzt as Israel literally the same story history is repeating itself but we have social media brands this time-). And then like what the fxck do you do about it when the word antisemitic now means anticolonialist so no one takes it seriously anymore. What the fxck are you supposed to do about that. And when they probably made themselves right because they probably contributed to Palestinian Genocide themselves they don't care they're just using them as props in their fxcking jew hatred. But like. Yeah you are now tied to this nationality that is tied to fxcking genocide what do you do? It's like perfect to use for fearmongering around Jewish people since the shzt they used before somehow worked despite literally being pulled out of their xss istg like where the fxck did any of the bank stuff come from like. The fzck?-

im tired. I'm so tired. Both in the literal "It's past 1am" sense and the less literal "make the stop" sense.

I just don't want people to die. I just want people to be happy. I just want people to not suffer but every day it feels like it's getting worse and I just want something to change for the better and I'm scared. Why do people act like it's a bad thing to not want people to suffer? I don't understand. I just. I just don't understand. I. am I naive? For this?

does this wish make me naive?

Yes, they were making fun of a child (in their family) who chose to be who they really are. Talking about a minor’s genitals and making fun of their body, saying it would be such an inconvenience if they would have a child like that. They also mentioned that if their own child were gay, they’d want nothing to do with it and they also mention this in front of their child. So imagine if this child is indeed gay (or wishes they were another gender), they are growing up hating themselves because of their hateful parents.

Tbh, Americans are in a whole different category, to me they are lost causes. In Europe I don’t feel like people are going “overboard” with the social awareness. A lot of dickheads use the word “woke” as a pejorative, it says more about them than about anything else. People should be considerate of one another, something that seems to have gone lost the last few years, especially after Covid, they lost their empathy by being stuck at home and being confronted with themselves I guess, instead of using it as an opportunity to grow.

If someone wants to be addressed in a certain way, then I will do that, it doesn’t make a difference for me, but it does for them.

If a transwoman wants to use a dressing room for women, that doesn’t mean they are going to assault anyone. Are there men who will want to take advantage of this and pretend to be trans? It is a possibility. But that problem lies in the fact that we live in a society where men are not being raised right and women are raised in fear.

We shouldn’t punish all trans people, because there are some non-trans people who will try to take advantage of it.

First of all I 100% agree with you on that example, it is horrible. No one should do that, or say that especially in front of kids. But I have to disclose since I have a real interest in this topic and listening and reading about it a lot, I don't support child transitioning. If you heard testimony of detransitioners they were basically groomed and brainwashed by adults and let down by the system. There is less harm in waiting for 18 years or more than realising your body, your mind, and your potential life was mutilated and taken away from you just because you were a kid and because of that, you were an easy target. I do not believe in BS like "if we are praying hard enough or son will be straight" no. But denying our kids blindly or letting them do anything blindly is the same side of the wrong coin. In one case the parent is not supportive enough and the other is too supportive (it's a thing like toxic positivity). When I read something like "child who chose to be who they really are" sorry but I feel this is the laziest, most simplified argument ever and I just cannot stop rolling my eyes. Children are children for a reason. Mainly because they don't know who they are yet. If a child at age 3-4-5 etc can decide about their gender without any challenge from a parent and authorities why don't we let 6 years old to vote? Drink? Why don't we give them guns, and send them to wars? What if a child says he wants to be a firefighter? You will let him run into a burning building? Or he is saying he is Superman and can fly. Would you let him jump off the 35th floor? I hope not. Have you seen the video about a cute little girl trying a lemon for the first time? She says no and makes faces but cannot stop eating and licking it. She says one thing and at the exact same time, she does the exact opposite. Because she is a child. Parent-children dynamic is important. Why do modern parents think that hierarchy means they are bad, abusive parents? Actually, it means the opposite. With boundaries and rules, you give your child the feeling of safety and a controlled safe place they can exist. And this space is going bigger and bigger with age. That's why being a teenager was so significant in the past.

America is an essential factor simply because almost every viral idea comes from there. The English language can transform other languages easily especially since the internet and SM, so the things happening there will happen in other parts of the world sooner or later. Maybe not in the same form and not every idea but some. That's why I was shocked that they banned abortion in many states. This is something that I am afraid of will spread all around Europe. I mean we already have counties like Poland where is almost impossible to get an abortion and they are letting women die. And since many people still think America is the land where everything is right, if they rule something it must be the correct decision, right... ?

Woke as a word is interesting because I indeed use it as a negative. Why? Because most people I see and call themselves woke are radicals and I don't support radicalism. And as I witnessed they are the one who has zero understanding and acceptance if someone is thinking a bit differently. This doesn't make me a dickhead because I am the one here who is trying to maintain a balanced conversation without name-calling. This is also something that woke people don't like to do as I experienced.

"But that problem lies in the fact that we live in a society where men are not being raised right and women are raised in fear."

This is a very interesting point, but this is just a half-truth. So based on this (that women are living in fear of men) where do you put trans women? Because they are biologically and genetically men. No matter what. Logically speaking. Or do you think if an adult man declares himself a woman he automatically falls off from the "men who are threatening" category? I like to see this argument being presented in female prisons where somehow magically rapes and pregnancies are happening. And what about same-sex couples? Do you know that every single study says in same-sex relationships domestic violence is higher than in heterosexual ones? So what about an abusive lesbian relationship where there is no man involved? Or what about an abusive gay relationship where no woman is involved? And if we are saying men are not being raised right, do you realise many of those men have a mother too? So if they are not being raised right is a shared responsibility between a man and a woman, between a father and mother. Or I don't understand who you refer to, who did a bad job raising those abusive men? Fathers only? Yes in some cases definitely, but in some cases mothers are acting as if their sons were god who can do anything. I am sorry but I don't believe in the man bad women good thinking. We are humans with incredible flaws.

The key to this argument is where do we draw the line to protect biological and trans people from impostors? Because women are facing a very new fear of men right now. When men are getting awards for being a better women than a woman. When they are letting is sports, when people demanding not to use the word mother and refer yourself birthing people etc. This is damaging biological women and girls. Their opportunities and mental health. Why their mental health doesn't concern anyone? Why do they have to give up their dreams silently and in fear of being labelled this and that just because someone wasn't good enough in a men's race or being offended by some words?

When a phoney like DM is threatening women in many ways he is also damaging the trans community. Those people make it harder for everyone and silently make people stop supporting the majority of trans people who just want to live their lives. I am sure when most people like me raise voices and concerns they are not talking about the adult trans people who just want to live their lives. For me, it's about leaving children out of it and understanding and accepting that even though they are now living as a woman, biology doesn't change, so they simply cannot be female swimmers at age 20 after having been a mediocre male swimmer for 19 years. Or saying no way when a man who is very proud to be a woman for a whole week starts to order biological women to do and not to do or say things. And interestingly, if you read deeply in comments and opinion peaces most trans people totally aware of this and concerned by this as well.

"We shouldn’t punish all trans people, because there are some non-trans people who will try to take advantage of it."

That is the point, besides some radicals, NO ONE want's to punish trans people. Saying some facts is not punishing. Asking for fair treatment in areas where male-female strength is a factor is not a punishment. People are not opposed to trans, people are opposed to the very dominant, mentally ill people like DM or the other one I don't know his name, whose fans basically harassed and sent death threats to a mom on youtube. Those people are hurting everyone, using real people's trauma for shortcuts. And because they are influential, getting the screen time, the big money, they are influencing the conversation about this. And people raise their voices because of this. Not because someone simply wants to live as a woman. But because they are involving children, silencing young women and moms, etc.

I really recommend this video and the comments. Maybe if a gay black man says his opinion this will mean something...

5/2/2024: To all Hamas terrorists haters, Mike Johnson and his people: If you (America) help Israel to steal land from the Hamas terrorists and their terrorist people, don't hate them from fighting back.

If a force higher than the white forces comes to America and steal your land and park their troops all over your land, what would you do? You fight back just like the Hamas terrorists and all terrorists. If you are poor and have no money for weapons, you fight back with all methods you can even kidnapping children as ransom because that's what poor countries do. However, I hate the hamas terrorists for killing baby(ies) though which started this war against babies and children.

Hey Mike Johnson and his people, if you stop sending money and weapons to Israel to support bombing the terrorists babies and children and stealing more land from the Palestinians in Occupied West Bank (the area what houses the town where your Jesus was born), I guarantee you the Hamas terrorists and it's terrorist people won't hate America that much and stop doing terrorist violence on you.

I guarantee my reasoning won't stop Mike Johnson and his people to continue supporting Israel and Even Irish Catholic Biden, because what they want as Jesus' people is Jesus' birth land at all costs, even going against their Constitution to defy the separation of church and state in the First Amendment.

Shame on you. Stealing land and bombing terrorists babies in the name of Jesus, God, and democracy. God (Jesus' father), Jesus, what goes around comes around, karma, and the Constitution are watching America, Mike Johnson and it's people . Satan is also watching with glee that he seduced Mike Johnson and his people, America, and Israel, and half of the Jewish people who supports Israel to steal back their ancient land from 3,000 years ago at all costs while calling themselves equality, democracy, and civilized humans who can be reasoned it. You too became just like the Hamas terrorists and their terrorist people-- except you and Israeli and the half of the Jewish people around the world who supports this are worse for you were the instigator of this war: stealing land in colonization, kicking terrorists out of their land, killing terrorists on their own land of 400 years, and still grabbing land as we speak, and bombing babies. I am out of here. I will be able from Tumblr for a while to focus on my Palestinian lawsuit in the 9th Circuit appeal court and to the US supreme Court and relinquishing my genocide, gay, and Spanish as 2nd language America eternally. Peace, love, & suing. ✌️ 💕 & suing. The native Americans (Indians) are watching too for if Israelis are able to take back their ancient ancestors' land with Mike Johnson and his people Americans help, then the Indians want their ancient ancestors land in America back, too. Perhaps the Mike Johnson and his people can move to Israel and Occupied West Bank to be closer to Jesus and give back their land to the Indians. Fair deal? Very fair in God's reasoning. Hey Mike Johnson and your people, try being the only white people living in the bottom of the Middle-East and top of Africa. You'll stick out like a an obese sore thumb, and the people in the Middle-East and top of Africa aren't as helpless as the Indians in America for they have friends with big weapons and their own God's representative called Muhammed so they will fight to death in their jihadis. Stupid Mike Johnson and his people and America and all people living in Europe, Canada, Australia and Zealand and Nordic countries. Prepare to return your stolen colonial land to the indigenous people once the Israelis are able to o get back their ancestors' land from ,3,000 years ago with your Christian help of unequivocal and unwavering support.

I haven't written anything about Ukraine, because my perspective isn't exactly valuable in this moment. But in case anyone actually needs a quick primer and hasn't gotten it yet, the only salient facts are:

This isn't about NATO expansion. It's not about "de-Nazification." It's not about oppressed Russian ethic minorities. It's not about Hunter Biden.

It's pretty simple. Putin wants the territory of the old USSR back. He kept Ukraine as a puppet state for years. When they started to warm to the West, instead, he tried rigging their elections, poisoning their leading presidential candidate, and sending separatist guerrillas to wreak havoc on everyday Ukrainians for a decade. Even the last few weeks, he made some half-assed attempts at manufacturing provocations as cassus belli, but in the end, was pretty clear that he just wanted Ukraine.

So he's doing this because he can. No other reason. Because he knows nobody else wants to use military force to stop him. He doesn't care about casualties, Ukrainian or Russian. He's willing to stomach economic sanctions.

All of those other excuses are obviously bogus, directly from Putin's own words. He doesn't think the ex-Soviet republics should have been allowed to leave. He wants them back. He said so himself.

A decent percentage of the American right has idolized Putin and his strongman antics, because they wanted to criticize Obama as weak by comparison, or thought he was an avatar of crushing LGBTQ people or wokeness, or that he was a powerful white Christian leader (ironically, the only Christianity he allows is Russian Orthodox.) They've made excuses for his atrocities over the years because they thought they shared a common enemy. Many have suddenly started pretending they never said such things. Others are doubling down.

Now this war has begun. The first open war in Europe in a generation. Not to discount the many deadly conflicts that have killed millions in, say, Africa, but this marks an ominous level of instability we all hoped we would never see again. Innocent men, women, and children are dying. They're huddling in subway tunnels to avoid falling bombs. Old men are saying goodbye to their families and picking up AKs to defend their neighborhoods from shock troops. University students are making molotov cocktails to throw at tanks.

It's not complicated. Big countries shouldn't invade small countries. Small countries shouldn't invade small countries. Autocracies shouldn't invade democracies. Democracies shouldn't invade autocracy. Quibbling about semantics or both-sidesing this is morally reprehensible. Choosing to bomb and shell innocent civilians is evil and must be condemned.

Serious people are debating how we, the world, responds.

Unserious people are using this moment to try to score cheap and incoherent political points.

The kind of people who only have one response to every scenario - joking about "multiple genders" or "Pride flags" or complaining about diversity or blaming everything on Joe Biden - are predictably shoehorning those same tropes into this conflict.

Not only do they not belong here, but all these statements prove is that these commentators are not capable of serious, sober thought even during serious, sober times. The irony, of course, being that the implied is joke is that pluralist societies spend our time on frivolous things like letting gay people be themselves - while the posters themselves prove that they are only capable of frivolous thought during deadly serious times. This is not a conflict for memes and trolls. And a world of conformity at gunpoint, the world offered by the Putins and the Xi Jinpings, is not an improvement on pluralistic liberal democracy, even if it really upsets your domestic political opponents. If you think otherwise, you really don't understand that whole "freedom" thing.

We are not sending US troops to fight in Ukraine. It's ok to acknowledge that. But that doesn't mean we can't acknowledge the obvious barbarity of this assault and respond diplomatically and economically, and it doesn't mean we will be completely unaffected here. There will definitely be some spillover damage to the rest of the world, in the form of increased energy costs and trade embargoes. And there are very serious concerns that Russia may escalate with cyberattacks in response to sanctions, which may lead down a slippery slope to a larger conflict. Which is why this is a time for careful, rational analysis.

So far, the world has done a pretty decent job of coming together in unified opposition, with a few notable exceptions. NATO isn't divided, and now Finland and Sweden may feel the need to join. Even China, which has allied with Russia and issued financial support and excuses, is suddenly making noises today about respecting Ukraine's territorial integrity.

There are a lot of incredible examples of bravery to witness right now. The Klitschko brothers, rich former boxing champions who could have fled, choosing to stay and take up arms to defend their people. The Ukrainian President, a former comedian, giving inspirational speeches in the face of likely death. The videos of Ukrainian troops defiantly telling a Russian warship to Fuck Off before being murdered, or the old lady who told the Russian soldiers to go away, or at least fill their pockets with sunflower seeds so flowers would grow from their corpses.

Members of Ukrainian Parliament are taking up arms in defense of their country rather than fleeing. I doubt many of our political elites would do the same.

And the heroes in Russia, protesting in the streets against this war of conquest, knowing it will lead to their arrest or worse. The Russian athletes, chess masters, orchestra musicians risking their necks to publicly oppose a dictator. This war is not popular, even in Russia.

Abroad, countries like Ireland and Canada are opening their doors to displaced Ukrainian refugees. And we better be prepared to do the same. We and many of our allies have cut Russia off from importing semiconductors and other vital technologies.

The only constructive thing I'll really add is that as ever, a lot of this is driven by money. Putin may be the world's richest man, having siphoned hundreds of billions from the Russian state coffers. He's surrounded himself with a power structure of pet oligarchs, who have all become phenomenally wealthy suckling at his teat.

Today, we and Europe finally sanctioned Putin personally, as well as his foreign minister.

But as many have said, it's time to start really going after those oligarchs and making life unpleasant for them. They've spent their fortune buying friendship from powerful people all over the world. They own famous soccer clubs, huge amounts of real estate in London and New York and Miami, super yachts and private planes. They're used to being welcomed in high society in metropolitan capitals around the world.

The Russian people have paid for these oligarchs' greed. The Russian economy is shot. Their stock market collapsed yesterday. And it will only get worse. But as in so many strongman empires, the wealth of the politically powerful has insulated them from consequences.

These people should be persona non grata in every country. Those mega yachts and tax haven condos should be seized.

Putin doesn't care about the will of his own people. He doesn't care about sending teenage Russian boys to die for his wars of conquest. But if the people have who have looted the Russian state can't fly their mistress to Paris on the weekend, and the Russian aristocracy becomes divided, that along with widespread dissent domestically may well weaken the regime and force them back behind their own borders.

you know how dystopian settings are often based on a real-world issue, taken to the extreme? (for example, the hunger games being an exaggeration of child stars being objectified as entertainment among other things) what do you think a sex-negative dystopia would look like and how awfully would readers misinterpret it as Good, Actually

I think we already exist in a sex negative dystopia. its improved slowly since it began in Europe in the dark ages, but it remains so pervasive that people don't even recognize how bad it is.

just the fact that its illegal for a human to exist in public showing the body they were born with is... deeply disturbing to me. bodies are literally considered profane just by existing. this is the foundation of all body negativity, and shame.

spiritual and political leaders shame people for masturbating, having sex before marriage, being gay. people kill themselves rather than go on unloved by their god and their community.

women lose their jobs for the crime of sending nudes to a trusted partner who leaked them. if you have nudes online you can never run for office or work with children.

if youre gay, kinky or polyamorous, you can lose your job.

people are imprisoned for choosing to have sex in exchange for money. sex "education" mostly seeks to scare teens away from ever having sex, rather than how to engage with it safely.

nsfw comic artists now have nowhere to sell online because of restrictions on nsfw content enforced by Mastercard. it gets harder to do independent sex work online everyday due to that.

certainly it could be worse, god knows it has been in the past. in some countries, women aren't even allowed to leave their homes because that would be 'tempting' men. gay people are given the death penalty in some places. sex negative fantasy dystopia just..isn't a fantasy.

do you know any neutral post that sums up the Israeli–Palestinian conflict because I don't know what to think. I don't want to dislike jews or Israel but it all sounds so bad? Send help

Hi! I super appreciate you asking because I know exactly how hard it is to even find one reliable source.

Of course it all sounds super bad, because Hamas is a well-oiled and functioning propaganda machine with a lot of money and children and parents willing to throw themselves in front of the camera to make Israel bad, and for some reason their pictures are always what get picked up by the media. Plus, there are super loud antisemitic voices everywhere chanting against Israel at every mention. And the BDS is lobbying pretty hard too, so it's very hard to not find a super negative picture.

It's a super tricky conflict. I'm not saying everything went well and Israel is a country with a pristine history. But here's some points to consider that are usually the biggest issues in any ''''controversy'''' around Israel- Jewish people have always lived and practiced Judaism for over 5000 years in Israel. They have been victims of pogroms and hatred and chased in the desert, but they have literally always been there and to say that Israel was a state installed by foreigners for foreigners coming to these lands is a blatant lie.

There are countries with way more questionable borders in existence, yet Israel is the only country to continuously has to defend its very existence.

The United Nations have two organisations for refugees. One is the UNHCR which deals with refugee questions for all over the world, except for one group. And the other is the UNRWA which is an organisation only for the Palestine/Gaza refugees. The differences between these organisations are more than in structure and beaurucracy, they have two different tasks: UNHCR aims to give refugees a home, UNRWA doesn't. When in 1951 the director of UNRWA proposed to give 250.000 refugees a home in different arabic countries, these governments were angry and strictly refused, leading to the director John Blanford to lose his job. Since then, no further attempts have been made.

Furthermore, the UNHCR only defines refugees as people who have actually fled from their homes. Meanwhile, the UNRWA broadens that definition to "people who lost their homes in 1948 and their descendants".

- Israel is the only country that won all their wars for their survival and in self-defense yet had to have the coniditions for peace dictated by the defeated enemies. Even more paradox, this was supported by countries which all defined their borders after winning wars over these territories -- like, look at an old map of Europe and you will see what I mean. Btw Europe, Germany and Poland drew their finite borders in 1990 but I guess Israel is the only ''''artificial'''' state

- One of Hamas' conditions was that no jewish people were allowed to live in Gaza, so for the first time in centuries if not more, there are no Jewish people living in Gaza. Weirdly, it doesn't seem enough because these people are still living somewhere else and not all dead, I guess.

- Hamas literally uses children and families as a shield, regularly raises palestine flags with swastikas and calls protests of throwing rocks, burning tires and attacking soldiers 'peaceful'. It's a terrorist organisation and literally has the destruction of Israel as a defining goal, yet we always expect Israel to work with them. Hamas wants to build a state based on ethnic purity and cleansing of the territory, but somehow everyone thinks it's okay.

- By the way, when the two state solution was on the table, it was refused because they didn't want Israel to even have a bit of Jerusalem, the capital city with which the jewish people has been connected for over 3000 years. Even weirder, this connection is widely known (famously written into the most read world book in the world, the Bible) and yet every country refuses to acknowledge it as the official capital city because they're afraid that terrorists will riot

- Israel is the only country which is continuously attacked by three organisations in the UN which only exist to represent the Palestine agenda and to defame Israel (they're three comitees and I can't remember their exact names even in German, but they're about realising Palestinian rights, researching the Israeli actions in regard to palestinian rights and there's something in the UN-department for politic agendas or somth)

- Every year. Every year, Israel is targeted by more UN-resolutions than all of the other 192 member countries together. No-one can tell me that this number is justifiable in the least, but it is a reality and it paints the picture of Israel in the media.

- Israel is also the only country in the UN that continuously has to defend its existence against other UN-members and that suffers threats from other members all the damn time. And not just any threats, Iran for example continuously threatens to wipe out Israel and supports Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza, both of which are terrorist organisations with the goal of destroying Israel. And destroying Israel means killing all their Jewish citizens.

And we continuously forget that Israel is the only liberal democracy in that area, they're currently conducting investigations into Netanyahu and his regime and it's a country with a rich and vivid discourse nature. They just refuse to let their existence be up to debate, and frankly, neither should any of us.

So, does this mean no-one is allowed to criticise Israel? Absolutely not. It is a functioning democracy and like any country, it is not a moral entity and there is a lot of room for debate. But when looking into the arguments, you should keep in mind that there's a lot of antisemitism hidden as 'Israel critic' when it's just the same old shit. There's a test called "the 3 Ds" (in German) that can function as a broad test to see if you're reading legitimate critics or antisemitic shit:

- Demonisation (are they demonising Israel, for example by comparing Israel to the Nazis or the palestine refugee camp with Auschwitz)

- Double standards (are they criticising Israel for a behaviour or an act that they ignore or belittle when it's different state, for example how is it that Israel suffers resolutions for hurting human rights but China, Iran, Kuba and Syria don't)

- Delegitimisation (when they're arguing against Israel to exist; it's also a double standard bc it's refusing to allow Jewish people to have a state in which they can live a safe life)

I realise this won't directly answer your question and I easily get side tracked, but I feel like knowing about these difficulties and critically reading your sources will help you more than just drawing a timeline of events. Because there's a lot of anti-Israel propaganda even on Wikipedia, on seemingly normal internet platforms and even our big Western media liberally use Hamas material while refusing to show the Nazi swastikas blowing on burning kites they shoot over to Israel ground. And it's hard to be neutral about this topic, because it is a democracy which is never flawless against a terrorist organisation which demonstrates great finesse in painting the picture the way they want it. I don't think we should all be neutral about it. I am firmly pro Israel because I need my Jewish friends who are currently worrying about anti-judaic sentiments on the uprise everywhere in Europe to have a safe haven. I am pro Israel because it is a country with huge efforts and contributions to our world and advancing medicines etc every day. It's a LGBTQ friendly country (contrary to Hamas policy in which gay sex means 10 years of prison). It is the only liberal democracy in the Middle East and deserves our support more than a terrorist organisation using their children as human shields. Yknow. Maybe that's not actually a topic to be neutral about.
