I have sympathy for the Israelis locked in prison because they refused to be part of the IOF.
Not just unethical, but stupid. Western countries are effectively controlled by Israel, it would be like having sympathy for your abusive prison guard. Noble, sure, but useful? Sensible?
The time for sympathy for Israel is when Israel is under control and vulnerable, not before.
I’m aware that may well mean “never”Israelis does not equal the Israeli government.
See +972, B’Tselem, breaking the silence, ISM, and all the anarchist Israelis fighting for a zero state solution
I will never, ever express sympathy for Israelis. Ever. Under any circumstances. To do so would be irresponsible, because Israel always weaponizes sympathy and then uses that weapon to commit mass atrocities.
Sympathy is a “dual use” resource that the zionists cannot be trusted with.
Iran is just giving Israeli citizens an oppertunity to topple their fascist terrorist dictatorial rouge government.
I’ve developed a bit of a superstition lately in regards to this.
It goes a little bit like this: If you hate someone and wish harm on them, and harm does end up coming for them, do not show sympathy, and do not show regret. Otherwise, it will backfire on you.
In other words, commit to your hatred, don’t back out of it the moment you get what you were asking for.
It especially fits for Israelis. Every fucking time I make the mistake of feeling a little bit of sympathy for them or otherwise offering maybe a little bit of slack, they immediately go and commit another atrocity and laugh about it. No more. They will be buried.
It’s a national-narcissism
once you see the pattern you can’t unsee it
Can we include americans in this too
If the world gives Israel sympathy for civilians injured by an Iranian airstrike over the weekend in a war Israel started, by Friday they’ll be using that sympathy to justify nuking Tehran.
I don’t enjoy holding this position. It goes against every natural human impulse inside me. But Israel, by its nature, has made it the only responsible position to hold.
History has clearly established that the world was wrong to give Israel sympathy for October 7. The correct and moral thing to have done would have been for everyone to say “That’s what you get for being a murderous apartheid state,”
I believe the kids would call this ‘bars’She’s always on point.
