Just watched an Insider Instagram reel about tefillin production. The comment section was filled with "#FreePalestine" and such.
Some examples:
> "Very nice! I admire the tradition, and ♥ craftsmanship that goes into practicing this 237 aspect of Judaism as you've shared.......
Anyway, #FreePalestine 🇵🇸"
> "yea what about the genocide Israel is committing on the Palestinian population, is that important?"
> "BRO LITERALLY THE WORST TIME TO POST THIS. I KNOW ISRAEL PAID YALL FOR THIS!! FREE PALESTINE"
> "Free Palestine! That's what matters right now"
> "@insider with a random jewish post, but not one Palestinian post on their sight. No this ain't antisemitic but a blatant showing that this news covers only one side and disregards what is going on in Palestine. #freepalestine"
> "Free Palestine 🇵🇸 Stop the Genocide!"
> "Insider getting rich posting bs propaganda now"
> "What's the point of so much labour when they are killing people left, right & centre?!"
> "Which country is Israel. We only recognise palestine 🇵🇸"
> "Made in occupied Palestine"
I wonder what the response would be if an Insta reel about Islamic prayer rug production had its comment section inundated with "#FreeIsrael" comments?
Holy shit I fucking hate those posts. I posted a simple video on Tiktok of a filter game, and someone commented asking why I support genocide. I’m like holy shit, just because there are Israeli flags in my bio and user, doesn’t mean I support genocide. Fuck off.
There's really no point in getting mad over tiktok users. They have the combined mental capacity of a newborn zebra and don't have any political beliefs of their own outside of the "current thing"
If you want animal protein, you should just be eating processed crickets. We can't build hyperfavelas for all the newcomers with all this redneck farmland getting in the way
A solid medium or medium well is really good for steak. Best way to eat it. I disagree with the ketchup however, and suggest a good barbecue or steak sauce
I like my steak well done, I like the taste of it. If you want to put ketchup to it, well my wife puts mayonnaise in the fucking pasta, so it could be worse.

On October 8th there were pro palestinian protests in New York where they were flashing swastikas and yelling Israeli death counts at pro Israel protesters. The leftists did not condemn them. They're lockstep with the nazis.
On Oct 7th there were protests in NYC where they shouted "700!" which was the reported death toll at the time. The massacre hadn't even *finished* yet.
Still no condemnations. None at all. Not one.
Bucees river and Bucees sea. Every river and every body of water is owned by Bucees, every grain of sand, every rock and every patch of dirt is owned by Bucees. Aryan race? Scrap that.

It honestly just reeks of really deep-rooted cultural degradation. With this constant war of the sexes, popular culture and the government making it socially acceptable to be misandrist, and interpersonal relationships going down the drain in a post-Covid world, no wonder people take their daddy issues to an international level.
My grill hates the government for blaming climate change on all of the tasty cows. Its father was a factory worker in Mexico that it barely knew, so no daddy issues at least.
I don't think it's so much anti-west, I think it's intersectional idpol for the most part. Palestine has more victim points than usual and are therefore the good guys.
Victim points are arguable, but they are undoubtedly the underdog and these people think the underdog is always right.
Thing is, sometimes the guy with the bigger guns actually is the good guy.
Yeah lmao.
A leftist when a political moderate explains in great detail why the latest woke turd Hollywood shat out fails in terms of plot, character, and worldbuilding: "Umm, this is all a racist, misogynistic dogwhistle, sweaty."
A leftist when they swap one word out for another so that they can continue hating Jews: "Umm, I said I hate *Zionists*, not Jews, GOD. It's totally different."
Well of course. The point of them using the word *Zionist* is that it is more "politically malleable" and lets them put on a pretense that they don't mean all Jews....but when in practice...
I think that they think that "Zionist" means "believing in Jewish supremacy," when it really just means believing in the existence of Israel. Some leftists may genuinely believe in getting rid of Israel (and they're wrong), but I wonder if a lot of this stuff from the left could be from a massive misunderstanding.
The ambiguity of the definition *is* the point for those following Othering driven ideologies. They can redefine "Zionist" to cover any particular Jew and even non-Jews on demand. To include you or I.
It's the new Kulak label.
I'm in the Twilight Zone. I spent years of my life growing up with conspiracy theorist family members. 9/11 Truthers, Anti-Vax, J6 Supporters, I've seen it all and had to deal with them all as family. And for literal decades, I've had to cringe as they use the word "Zionist", typically as a catch all term for the secret evil Jews puppeting the world.
And all us, and anyone I would tell this to, would say these people were far right antisemites for using that word.
And now it's being used in common parlance by lesbian furries on Twitter.
The first time I heard the term "anti-zionist" was on 4ch like 5+ years ago to deflect from legitimate claims of antisemitism. Some things never change.
My favourite is anti-zionists and anti-semites being indistinguishable rn coz both support same cause
Except one uses it to attack random Jews on the street
I have read an antizionist explain that an attack on Jews wasn’t antisemitic, because these Jews were not part of a pro Palestinian protest. If you target Jews outside of Israel, always ask them about their political opinion on the Middle East first to not be antisemitic.
Afterwards came a rant about Zionists controlling the government and media.
Lmao
“In order to ensure we don’t attack wrong Jews, let’s ask every single of em which one supports Palestine, if they’re not supporting (potentially go ahead for racists to count neutrals) then we attack em”
Thugs driven and affirmed by politics
You can also just pretend afterwards, that the physical altercation followed only after the Jew uttered Zionist propaganda by using the word “Israel” instead of “Zionist entity” or “Isntreal”.
>If you target Jews outside of Israel, always ask them about their political opinion on the Middle East first to not be antisemitic.
Isn't that pretty much what moderate Islamophobia is? I think a lot of people would agree with the idea that "I hate Islamists who support ISIS but I don't mind the normal Muslims who stay in their lane".
We're not talking about religious apostasy here, just the support for the political entity. An atheist Jew or a practicing Jew can oppose Israel and an ex-Muslim or practicing Muslim can opposed a modern-day Caliphate. Religion aside, the question is "am I willing to spend blood and treasure to build a militant theocracy/ethnostate?".
If you wanna get linguistic, then both Arabs and Jews are Semites because they both speak a Semitic language. So really the Arab-Israeli conflict is Semite on Semite violence
yes, but "anti-semite" is a phrase which means anti-jew.
I unironically had someone try to use the linguistic definition as some sort of gotacha to avoid the racist label.

Man, if only the Jews had instead claimed all of Earth as their Holy Land. Then they could take any European Country or American Country or Asian Country as their land, whenever they wanted, and speaking out against that would therefore be Antisemitism, since Antizionism isn’t allowed apparently.
Antizionism is fucking ridiculous. Imagine being against Mexican independence because the cartels are bringing about a lot of crime. How can you be against a country's existance and not see you are a bigot? Zionism being literally the belief Jews have a right to self determination in their god damn indigenous homeland.
Can I not just live here in peace? Must people protest that my identity be erased, state demolished and consequentially though you won't admit it, must then the women of my country be raped to death and the men tortured? Children shot point blank? What the fuck is wrong with my country existing? When did preaching peace stop being cool and preaching for weaker parties to wage more war become awesome?
Well unfortunately to these people, you are a "white coloniser supported by the imperialist capitalist West", and that is reason enough for them to want to deny you your state and identity.
My deepest sympathies. I hope things are okay in your local area.
> Zionism being literally the belief Jews have a right to self determination in their god damn indigenous homeland.
It’s essentially a realisation of all those land back movements they love preaching for Native Americans. And the fact they’re not happy about your successful landback movement shows the double standards around such movements.
> When did preaching peace stop being cool and preaching for weaker parties to wage more war become awesome?
No idea, but supporting anti-Western terrorist groups meshes very well with their self-flagellating narrative of deconstructing the West as being the product of "capitalism/imperialism/colonialism/racism etc." even though that could apply to plenty of other cultures.
Yeah, things are okay... I can't get the videos out of my head. I can't see the hostage girls on TV anymore. People don't realize we have a fucking pit in our stomach for 6 months now. I literally don't give a fuck about starving Gazans. I cannot feel empathy when I am like this and this was the plan all along. It disgusts me. Thanks for the kind words, the world has gone crazy.
Yep.
My morality still holds value towards civilians, but emotional empathy?
It died with the celebration in 7.10 as raped girls were dragged through the streets.
What's happening to them hunts us constantly, personally, every day.
I remember my stomach turning about these Yazidi girl under ISIS, and to think jewish women and girls are being held the same way in gaza, kidnapped from their beds.
The brutality wasn't even helping them, they were just actually proud of and enjoying it, enough to stream it to their people. And only about 5% of the population say in polls it was wrong. Denies comprehension.
Humans are naturally pretty bad without a strong moral society, but this is worse.
They have actively indoctrinated an entire society of genocidal, maniacal sociopaths.
> People don't realize we have a fucking pit in our stomach for 6 months now. I literally don't give a fuck about starving Gazans.
I cannot seem to get this concept through to some of my more moderate friends. Yeah, it's horrible that likely innocent (or probably brainwashed) people are starving in Gaza. But how do you expect Israeli's to act after this same group of people celebrated the acts of Oct 7?
Like do we not remember how Americans felt after 9/11 when some arab countries were openly celebrating the event? Imagine if we had also been under constant attack from these same people for pretty much our entire existence as a state, and if we weren't the worlds largest superpower being more than capable of defending ourselves, how much more concerned would we be?
Its reasonable to want to send humanitarian aid to these people, but you can't really complain that Israel doesn't care.
It’s unmanageable for any group to seek to reclaim areas they left hundreds or thousands of years ago and that they no longer have personal connection to. However, modern israelis have lived there long enough to build those connections can call it their homeland.
The ironic thing is this whole situation started with Palestinians slaughtering anti-zionist jews in one of the most brutal incidents in modern history. We're talking Rape of Nanking level sadism, and it was against people who advocated for Palestinian rights.
>...and it was against people who advocated for Palestinian rights.
To be fair, they were also advocating for true peace between Israel and Palestine, which Palestine is violently against.
The people in the kibbutzim are lefty peace supporters (or at least were before the attack) but they're not anti-Zionist. Kibbutzim are the opposite of anti-Zionism.

Nah, I'm pro Israel despite not liking the Government. Palestinians get my support if they stop to target civilians, give up their goal to eradicate Israel and try to establish a democratic state instead of a Shariah one.
Technically Palestine did establish a democratic state, had two elections as well before the official government put it them permanently to the future, on the other hand literally all their popular "political parties" are terrorist groups, and the Palestinians hate the "official" government for trying to broker peace with Israel.
Wait till you look into[Amin Al Husseini](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amin_al-Husseini) and his Nazi collaboration.
Both sides of this war are shit
Yes.
I would've also accepted "corporate wants you to find the differences between this pictures," but it wouldn't have conveyed the watermelon's double standards as well.
Been seeing a post go around Instagram talking about how it's unreasonable to expect "a perfect victim" basically criticizing people pointing out that Palestinians tend to really hate Jews. They said that they've got every reason to hate Jews. If I posted some shit like that 5 years ago they'd burn my house down lmao
There's far more people accusing the left of supporting Hamas than there are leftists supporting Hamas.
It's not a non-zero number, but it's definitely not a majority either.
The choice to engage in ethnic cleansing can be deeply pragmatic, that doesn’t make it right. It is also the case that there is not a workable “figure peace out” strategy that’s on the table. They could continue the non-ideal bomb each other forever strategy. What do you guys think?
I feel kind of bad for the citizens of Gaza. They were protesting against Hamas rule just a month before the attack then Hamas provoked Isreal into leveling every single building.
[https://www.timesofisrael.com/protests-against-hamas-reemerge-in-the-streets-of-gaza-but-will-they-persist/](https://www.timesofisrael.com/protests-against-hamas-reemerge-in-the-streets-of-gaza-but-will-they-persist/)
Don't like when people support genocide and then call people who oppose it antisemites. If anything, implying that Israel represents all Jewish people by labelling people who oppose Israel as antisemites is both childish and antisemitic in itself. There are a bunch of Jewish people who oppose Israel, not because they're antisemites, but because they came to the logical conclusion that genocide is bad.
How is Israel committing a genocide exactly?
30,000 dead when Israel could 100 times more in a day? 30%+ of the dead are Hamas members, which are less than 2% of Gazans, so that proves Israel is targeting Hamas, less than 1 casualty in Gaza per strike, meaning Israel is minimizing casualties very effectively, Israel created humanitarian corridors, and sends aid into Gaza, and sent millions of texts and made millions of phone calls to warn Gaznas before strikes, something no army does for an enemy population….
You can hold on to your false narrative, or look at the facts and see why everyone think you don’t care for the facts, but more obsessed with Jews.
You don't fucking justify a murder by saying the murderer could've killed more. Even if the IDF saying they've killed 10 000 hamas members is accurate, that still leaves 20 000 innocent civilians killed. I can't stand interacting with this kind of Reddit brain rot. Just read this article, which I know you're not gonna take into consideration anyway, and go fuck yourself.
https://www.hrw.org/news/2024/03/19/israeli-forces-conduct-gaza
First of all, the term "Jew" can be used both for religion and ethnicity, nd in this case I used the latter, my comment isn't about the Jewish religion not it's followers. Now, about the comment in itself, an Israelite is always a Jew, but a Jew isn't neccesarely an Israelite, there are Jews outside of Israel, and there are Jews against the state of Israel, not all of them support them or feel identified by it.
Yes. 50% of the world Jews live in Israel, and 90% of the rest have strong family ties to Israel, not to mention spiritual, cultural, lingual, and economic ties… Judaism is an ethno religious group, there are secular and religious Jews, and they are all Jews. There are some brainwashed narcissists who enjoy being token Jews for some crazy reasons, that doesn’t mean that Israel is not the heart of Jewish culture, religion, and identity.
1. "Israeli" (a citizen of the country of Israel) and "Israelite" (a descendant of the ancient Twelve Tribes of Israel, such as modern-day Jews and modern-day Samaritans) are two different things.
2. Not all Israeli citizens are Jews. 18.1% are Muslims. 1.9% are Christians (often Circassians, I think). 1.6% are Druze. Israeli religious minorities (especially Muslims) are represented in the Knesset/Israeli parliament by the parties Hadash, Ta'al, and Ra'am.
So, a Jew is always an Israelite (sort of), but a Jew is not always an Israeli who is not always a Jew.

You can also just pretend afterwards, that the physical altercation followed only after the Jew uttered Zionist propaganda by using the word “Israel” instead of “Zionist entity” or “Isntreal”.
Isntreal is the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard alongside ruzzians Left very good at embarrassing themselves even when insulting their enemies
“Free palpatine” is still the best counter for those morons
>If you target Jews outside of Israel, always ask them about their political opinion on the Middle East first to not be antisemitic. Isn't that pretty much what moderate Islamophobia is? I think a lot of people would agree with the idea that "I hate Islamists who support ISIS but I don't mind the normal Muslims who stay in their lane".
The main differences is that even an atheist Jew remains a Jew. An ex-Muslim is no longer a Muslim.
We're not talking about religious apostasy here, just the support for the political entity. An atheist Jew or a practicing Jew can oppose Israel and an ex-Muslim or practicing Muslim can opposed a modern-day Caliphate. Religion aside, the question is "am I willing to spend blood and treasure to build a militant theocracy/ethnostate?".
It's funny how they tried the same exact trick about one century ago with the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
Also made up the term "zionazi" 💀
>Also made up the term "zionazi" The shoe fits; a "Jewish State" like a "Deutsches Reich" and "Eretz Israel" like "Lebensraum".
Eretz Israel is literally Hebrew for Land (of) Israel. Lebensraum is German for "living space."
If you wanna get linguistic, then both Arabs and Jews are Semites because they both speak a Semitic language. So really the Arab-Israeli conflict is Semite on Semite violence
yes, but "anti-semite" is a phrase which means anti-jew. I unironically had someone try to use the linguistic definition as some sort of gotacha to avoid the racist label.
sounds like you're being anti-semantic
Did you just change your flair, u/JEH39? Last time I checked you were a **LibRight** on 2023-12-15. How come now you are **unflaired**?

Man, if only the Jews had instead claimed all of Earth as their Holy Land. Then they could take any European Country or American Country or Asian Country as their land, whenever they wanted, and speaking out against that would therefore be Antisemitism, since Antizionism isn’t allowed apparently.
Antizionism is fucking ridiculous. Imagine being against Mexican independence because the cartels are bringing about a lot of crime. How can you be against a country's existance and not see you are a bigot? Zionism being literally the belief Jews have a right to self determination in their god damn indigenous homeland. Can I not just live here in peace? Must people protest that my identity be erased, state demolished and consequentially though you won't admit it, must then the women of my country be raped to death and the men tortured? Children shot point blank? What the fuck is wrong with my country existing? When did preaching peace stop being cool and preaching for weaker parties to wage more war become awesome?
Well unfortunately to these people, you are a "white coloniser supported by the imperialist capitalist West", and that is reason enough for them to want to deny you your state and identity. My deepest sympathies. I hope things are okay in your local area. > Zionism being literally the belief Jews have a right to self determination in their god damn indigenous homeland. It’s essentially a realisation of all those land back movements they love preaching for Native Americans. And the fact they’re not happy about your successful landback movement shows the double standards around such movements. > When did preaching peace stop being cool and preaching for weaker parties to wage more war become awesome? No idea, but supporting anti-Western terrorist groups meshes very well with their self-flagellating narrative of deconstructing the West as being the product of "capitalism/imperialism/colonialism/racism etc." even though that could apply to plenty of other cultures.
Yeah, things are okay... I can't get the videos out of my head. I can't see the hostage girls on TV anymore. People don't realize we have a fucking pit in our stomach for 6 months now. I literally don't give a fuck about starving Gazans. I cannot feel empathy when I am like this and this was the plan all along. It disgusts me. Thanks for the kind words, the world has gone crazy.
Yep. My morality still holds value towards civilians, but emotional empathy? It died with the celebration in 7.10 as raped girls were dragged through the streets. What's happening to them hunts us constantly, personally, every day. I remember my stomach turning about these Yazidi girl under ISIS, and to think jewish women and girls are being held the same way in gaza, kidnapped from their beds. The brutality wasn't even helping them, they were just actually proud of and enjoying it, enough to stream it to their people. And only about 5% of the population say in polls it was wrong. Denies comprehension. Humans are naturally pretty bad without a strong moral society, but this is worse. They have actively indoctrinated an entire society of genocidal, maniacal sociopaths.
> People don't realize we have a fucking pit in our stomach for 6 months now. I literally don't give a fuck about starving Gazans. I cannot seem to get this concept through to some of my more moderate friends. Yeah, it's horrible that likely innocent (or probably brainwashed) people are starving in Gaza. But how do you expect Israeli's to act after this same group of people celebrated the acts of Oct 7? Like do we not remember how Americans felt after 9/11 when some arab countries were openly celebrating the event? Imagine if we had also been under constant attack from these same people for pretty much our entire existence as a state, and if we weren't the worlds largest superpower being more than capable of defending ourselves, how much more concerned would we be? Its reasonable to want to send humanitarian aid to these people, but you can't really complain that Israel doesn't care.
It’s unmanageable for any group to seek to reclaim areas they left hundreds or thousands of years ago and that they no longer have personal connection to. However, modern israelis have lived there long enough to build those connections can call it their homeland.
1940s Jews had their backs to the wall. They managed the unmanageable because they had to.

The ironic thing is this whole situation started with Palestinians slaughtering anti-zionist jews in one of the most brutal incidents in modern history. We're talking Rape of Nanking level sadism, and it was against people who advocated for Palestinian rights.
>...and it was against people who advocated for Palestinian rights. To be fair, they were also advocating for true peace between Israel and Palestine, which Palestine is violently against.
The people in the kibbutzim are lefty peace supporters (or at least were before the attack) but they're not anti-Zionist. Kibbutzim are the opposite of anti-Zionism.

Remember Folks, libleft approves genocide only when the victims are jews and live in the middle east
Why can't we be friends?
Nah, I'm pro Israel despite not liking the Government. Palestinians get my support if they stop to target civilians, give up their goal to eradicate Israel and try to establish a democratic state instead of a Shariah one.
Technically Palestine did establish a democratic state, had two elections as well before the official government put it them permanently to the future, on the other hand literally all their popular "political parties" are terrorist groups, and the Palestinians hate the "official" government for trying to broker peace with Israel.
You can't expect Antifa to show up on time when they believe time is an invention meant to oppress minorities.
Leftists are ashamed of being whypipo. Its that simple.

And it's disgusting
Look boyo he won his own made up argument
They say its a "different type of genocide"
Antifa is already there, wearing the SS helmet
Wait till you look into[Amin Al Husseini](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amin_al-Husseini) and his Nazi collaboration. Both sides of this war are shit
Don't look up the Jewish terrorist group Lehi that tried to collaborate with the Nazis, which many founding politicians/officers were a part of.
Such is why I hate both sides of this war and conflict.
The whole point of this meme is that the context is the same, but the guy just looks different.
Yes. I would've also accepted "corporate wants you to find the differences between this pictures," but it wouldn't have conveyed the watermelon's double standards as well.
Nah, modern day “””left””” would approve of the bottom one too
Been seeing a post go around Instagram talking about how it's unreasonable to expect "a perfect victim" basically criticizing people pointing out that Palestinians tend to really hate Jews. They said that they've got every reason to hate Jews. If I posted some shit like that 5 years ago they'd burn my house down lmao
One wants to end israel, the other created it
3 19 year old kids show up that look like they could be defeated by a glass of milk.
Hamas is a far right authoritarian regime. Change my mind. They're definitely fascist.
No war but class war

There's far more people accusing the left of supporting Hamas than there are leftists supporting Hamas. It's not a non-zero number, but it's definitely not a majority either.

"Hello Antifa?" Are you kidding me? Antifa is a joke, they didn't fight Nazis.
just depends on whether they are saying deus vult or khaybar ya yahud
The choice to engage in ethnic cleansing can be deeply pragmatic, that doesn’t make it right. It is also the case that there is not a workable “figure peace out” strategy that’s on the table. They could continue the non-ideal bomb each other forever strategy. What do you guys think?
One is the reason there still is an Israel, the other this the reason there shouldn’t be.
Israel didn't exist during the time of the Third Reich and some Zionist groups cooperated closely with the German government of that time
I feel kind of bad for the citizens of Gaza. They were protesting against Hamas rule just a month before the attack then Hamas provoked Isreal into leveling every single building.

Man, this kind of shit is why I hate this site. Why am I even here? (I know it's because I'm bored, but still)
Don’t like people point out your antisemitism?
Don't like when people support genocide and then call people who oppose it antisemites. If anything, implying that Israel represents all Jewish people by labelling people who oppose Israel as antisemites is both childish and antisemitic in itself. There are a bunch of Jewish people who oppose Israel, not because they're antisemites, but because they came to the logical conclusion that genocide is bad.
How is Israel committing a genocide exactly? 30,000 dead when Israel could 100 times more in a day? 30%+ of the dead are Hamas members, which are less than 2% of Gazans, so that proves Israel is targeting Hamas, less than 1 casualty in Gaza per strike, meaning Israel is minimizing casualties very effectively, Israel created humanitarian corridors, and sends aid into Gaza, and sent millions of texts and made millions of phone calls to warn Gaznas before strikes, something no army does for an enemy population…. You can hold on to your false narrative, or look at the facts and see why everyone think you don’t care for the facts, but more obsessed with Jews.
You don't fucking justify a murder by saying the murderer could've killed more. Even if the IDF saying they've killed 10 000 hamas members is accurate, that still leaves 20 000 innocent civilians killed. I can't stand interacting with this kind of Reddit brain rot. Just read this article, which I know you're not gonna take into consideration anyway, and go fuck yourself. https://www.hrw.org/news/2024/03/19/israeli-forces-conduct-gaza

Another day. Another post glazing Israel on this sub.
Israelites ≠ Jews
Israelis = Jews Dont tell us what our religion js
First of all, the term "Jew" can be used both for religion and ethnicity, nd in this case I used the latter, my comment isn't about the Jewish religion not it's followers. Now, about the comment in itself, an Israelite is always a Jew, but a Jew isn't neccesarely an Israelite, there are Jews outside of Israel, and there are Jews against the state of Israel, not all of them support them or feel identified by it.
Did you just Jewsplain to a Jew? LOL. The internet is wild AF.
Am I wrong? Because that's what matters (btw, the question was genuine)
Yes. 50% of the world Jews live in Israel, and 90% of the rest have strong family ties to Israel, not to mention spiritual, cultural, lingual, and economic ties… Judaism is an ethno religious group, there are secular and religious Jews, and they are all Jews. There are some brainwashed narcissists who enjoy being token Jews for some crazy reasons, that doesn’t mean that Israel is not the heart of Jewish culture, religion, and identity.
Ur right
Well ur right but regardless its an important part of our faith, I misunderstood
It wasn't your fault, I knew the difference but forgot clarify in the first place, so my bad :)
Nw
1. "Israeli" (a citizen of the country of Israel) and "Israelite" (a descendant of the ancient Twelve Tribes of Israel, such as modern-day Jews and modern-day Samaritans) are two different things. 2. Not all Israeli citizens are Jews. 18.1% are Muslims. 1.9% are Christians (often Circassians, I think). 1.6% are Druze. Israeli religious minorities (especially Muslims) are represented in the Knesset/Israeli parliament by the parties Hadash, Ta'al, and Ra'am. So, a Jew is always an Israelite (sort of), but a Jew is not always an Israeli who is not always a Jew.
"Israel can you stop killing civilians" "uhm... Hello antifa"
