#save the children is absolutely not a zionist org

Not adding to the post this is in response to, but saying a character is "basically Jewish" and mentioning krav maga isn't zionist propaganda. That's such a fucking reach.

It has been brought to my attention by a grand total of four people now that a certain shithead in the fandom is trying to dox me yet again. Though I don't care if someone disagrees with me and can move on with my day, someone posting misinformation about my blog and getting others to block me on the account that I am a 'genocide supporter' is not something I will stay silent about.

So, for the last time... here is my stance.

I do NOT support genocide, and will never support the mass killing of innocent people.

I have, and will continue to publicly condemn Bibi Netanyahu for his actions and use of the Israeli government.

I will keep working closely with the organizations I've volunteered for in collecting funds and aid for Palestinian refugees and families still caught in the crossfire.

I will always call out Islamophobia when I see it, as it’s very common in the far right communities on tumblr.

I am a proud zionist, and I want to reiterate yet again that TRADITIONAL JEWISH ZIONISIM DOES NOT EQUATE WITH FAR RIGHT 'ZIONIST' BELIEFS.

Once more, for those confused, here is the jewish meaning of the word zionsim: the belief that the jewish people have a right to self determinate in their homeland (in most charters stated 'to protect themselves from another holocaust') which as you'll notice, does not say anything about an ethnostate or the rights to wipe out innocent civilians in another territory. It quite literally just means that jews existing in Israel get to keep existing and shouldn’t be wiped out either. It's pretty reasonable of a belief if you're not mentally demented.

I have family and friends in Israel, who are not immigrants, and their lineage far surpasses even the concept of Roman mandated Palestine. They are also traditional Jewish zionists, and I completely stand with them. One of my friends was a survivor of the music festival slaughter by Hamas, and her mother was killed.

I will never stop bringing awareness to the hostages remaining in Gaza , and will always call anyone out who says the hostages are, and I quote 'being treated well' by Hamas. They are hostages. They can not leave, a lot of their family members have been killed, and they have to go through this time wondering if they will also die.

I will continue to block people who interact out of poor faith, or are of the mindest that 'these jews aren't on my side, so I'm going to harrass them.' That’s antisemitism, bub...

I can't believe I even have to say this but: newsflash! Israeli citizens are not evil, and are not responsible for their government, as you should be well aware of, at least if you live in america. Another newsflash! You can support the indigenousness of Jews while ALSO supporting the indigenousess of Palestinians!!!

I am so tired of asswipes virtuesignaling on this site, doxxing jews and crying their eyes out about a word they don't even understand, when I live literally done more for Palestinians than they ever have. It's antisemitism at its absolute worst, and it pisses me off to no end.

As I like to say:

Oh brave tumblr goy, what have you done for Palestine today? Because instead of harassing jews and harassing zionists, I sent actual aid to Palestinians.

For those who would like to actually contribute, here are some links to verified organizations (that ensure your donations will not be stolen by Hamas or their sympathizers):

Water For Gaza

World Central Kitchen (provides food directly to citizens without going through Hamas or UNRWA)

Shelter Boxes

And for those who would like to donate to an emergency fund for Israeli citizens being harmed by incoming rockets and attacks near the border, this org is partnering with a few medical associations in Israel to supply more ambulances to the hospitals:

Israeli Ambulances (Magen David Adom Fund)

And for those interested in donating to both Palestinian and Israeli children that have been caught in the crossfire, visit this link:

Save the Children

I may be keeping this as my pinned post for a while, just because my masterlist links haven't been fixed yet, and I need to keep this at the top of my blog for a while.

Boy howdy, how do I address this.

Y'all know acknowledging the Jewish people have been through a lot both in recent and long term history is not in and of itself pro-Zionism, right?

Also, the listing of the charity Save the Children, that's an org right now that is literally fighting to provide relief to the ongoing famine in Palestine. This is their front page right now:

Is the framing only directly condemning Hamas and not the IOF bad? Absolutely! Calling this Zio Propaganda because the suffering of Jewish people is mentioned is also bad! Y'all might want to investigate why y'all think that. It's like y'all just forgot that the Jewish people have suffered greatly for, frankly, centuries and not just in a small handful of European countries.

Saying that any mentioning of the suffering Jewish people historically is Zio Propaganda is absolutely opening yourself up to actual antisemitic and actors who are trying to capitalize on y'all's rightful anger and the ongoing genocide in Gaza by the Israeli Occupying Forces.

The title card itself is enough simply due to directly condemning Hamas while only vaguely gesturing towards children suffering and charities trying to ending the famine in Palestine and providing aid to Palestinians. You didn't need to include either of those scenes because neither (especially the first) are advocating for Israel's existence, even mentioning Krav Maga (and to the people in the notes, no that's not an advocacy for "Israeli self defense" in terms of way, it is clarifying it is a self defense martial art as most are).

You could have made the point without saying "acknowledging the Jewish people have suffered is inherently Zionist propaganda" and that makes me suspicious. Y'all need to learn to build these decrement skills because you will be taken advantage of by bad actors.

oh, thats zionist propaganda in my knuckles the echidna show
