    No, nuance of middle east regional conflict, and the nature of offense vs. defense for the civilians of a nation who’s government is committing an ongoing genocide.

    But I get it, that’s just too much for you. I’ve learned my lesson

      Under international law they’re an occupation force that can be targeted by liberation movements. All of them do military service when they’re adults, either killing, spying or facilitating these for their colony. The ones committing genocide aren’t some shadow government that Israeli people don’t know of, it’s their government in agreement with them. The vast majority of them believe it’s okay to further displace Palestinians, and back it up with arms.

      Even if international law didn’t already recognize the rights of colonized and oppressed people, we’d still be able to point to the lunatics who keep enthusiastically genociding Palestine, and the second Israelis join the IOF they’d be a valid military target.

      The only Israeli Jews who are innocent are children. Of course we don’t want children to suffer. But as long as their parents keep murdering and raping Palestinians, what else are the victims supposed to do? They already tried peaceful protests and they got crushed.

      The sooner you stop drawing arbitrary lines between how genocidal they can be as long as they do it for “defense” the sooner we can have a realistic conversation of what’s going on, why, and what needs to happen so people stop being fucking genocided.
