So... It seems apparent the what Israeli Gov't Jews learnt from the Holocaust is:
"Do unto Muslims as has been done unto you."
But, of course, deny you're doing it during the entire time you're doing it. No one will hold you to account without a full-out global world war.
Methinks Israeli Gov't Jews learnt the wrong lesson from German Gov't Nazis. It wasn't meant as a "howto".
🤦♀️ 🤷♂️ 🤡 🖕
Never again, I presume was do unto others before they do unto you.
1930’s and 1940’s Germany called, they said keep up the good work
Never forget the Nazi Party's regime of eradicating all minorities was inspired by the Europeans performing genocide on the indigenous people of what is now America. Of course, this is not exactly similar. The Israelites and Arabs have been quarreling ever since they existed. Over their fucking "holy land". Honestly it's like dragon sickness. Jews + Jerusalem = death and hostility to others.

Yeah... no. The Muslim world was the most tolerant place of Jews in the world (well, the part of the world where Jews existed, anyway) until the 20th century. It wasn't all sunshine and rainbows don't get me wrong, but there was no "quarreling" between Muslims and Jews. In fact, it was Muslims who allowed Jews back into their holy land after the Romans had kicked them out.
Dawg it was called the Crusades because it was exclueivley Christian nations fighting with Muslim nations over Jerusalem. Jews were essentially bystanders who often opted for the Islamic empire where they were allowed to live and not be constantly slaughtered by their Christian empire counterparts.
Israel as a functioning idea was introduced by the zionist movement of the 20th century, which Orthodox jews still condemn to this day because they claim there should not be a Jewish state without their Messiah.
To add to even more irony, the modern successors to these empires being Britain and Turkey actually lost interest in control of the holy land because it didn't provide any substantial geopolitical power or resources. The Ottoman empire failed to protect it and lost the entirey of Trans Jordan in WWI, and Britain noped out right after WWII when they realized it could absolve them of having to provide for Jews in Europe.
Israeli society is absolutely sick, and we are all complicit in this genocide to one degree or another.
We're all at least a little complicit, but if you attend and help organise rallies, write to politicians, and vote left wing, you're less complicit than the people who do nothing.
Zionist: "That's antisemitism! Shun them!" hissss!
So if "Free Palestine!" is the new "Heil Hitler!" then what is "Death to Arabs!"?
Same thing. It’s almost as though both sides suck.
Wanting freedom is now the same level of evil as genocide? This is your brain on propaganda.
This is a colossally stupid take.
Hmmmm. I'm sure you'd also say that slavery is freedom, ignorance is strength etc.?
Me ne frego
Subtle.
Nobody has done more harm to the Jewish image in the past 80 years than Israel. I think religion is a joke anyway, but I certainly have no respect for the Jewish religion as a whole.

I’m with you on this part. Past that, let’s agree to disagree.
I mean, it's still quite the elephant in the room that hasn't really been talked about.
Judaism is a restricted affair, you have to be born into it to be considered a part of the group that God has chosen to be saved. To them, almost everyone else is permanently non qualified, therefore they are not in the group. If you do want to convert, you have to jump through a bunch of hoops, and put up with a ritual of rejection until you're accepted. By definition it's an ethno-relegious group.
From that viewpoint, it's only a skip away from ethno-nationalism, which is what Zionism is.
Unlike Christianity and Islam which offer the ability to join, and actively convince you to join. (Also Hinduism, Buddhism, etc).
There are only about 15 million Jews compared to 2.6 billion Christian and 1.9 billion Muslims.
Food for thought.
Non-Hebrews don't need to be saved. You don't need to go to Gan Eden or Sheol if you're not Jewish. You can just go to Valhalla or Hades or Yomi or Xibalba instead.
Cut out one more sentence from the end and I agree
Fucking disgusting people.
Seems like Nazis and these guys have a lot in common.
Turn the other cheek?
A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
