It's kind of baffling how this poster is literally unwilling to even use the word Israel, as if a refusal to say the word makes it more plausible to annihilate the state.

The killings in Palestine and Israel are abominable but there's no outcome where a state ceases to exist.

It's the tragic how futile & empty such "solidarity" is given that governments are opening diplomatic relations at rapid speed, & military efforts lead only to innocent blood being pointlessly shed. Maybe folks should try a different tack rather than ask others to die for it?

I don't know maybe instead of bandying about monstrous fantasies of elimination or total dominance Israel and Palestine - & their enablers - could, idk, try something new.

Israel certainly isn't helped by its ultra right apartheid government's bloody & futile "security".

People should not be dead over ethnonationalist fantasies.

It's particularly laughable in the op bc the tweet they were quoting was from *an actual member of the Israeli government*, w/an explicit statement that the occupation is toxic to Israeli democracy.
Once you're *in office* you can't claim it's an "entity" anymore, it's your govt.

I don't know folks I just have absolutely zero patience for the "Zionist Entity" flimflam. Israel as a state exists, with an administration (currently a very vile one) & an all the paraphernalia of a state.

It is not going away next Tuesday and pretending it will is clownshoes.

Worse than clownshoes, even! It convinces the *rather sizable* group of people in Israel with Israeli citizenship you want them all dead or second class citizens & therefore further fuels reactionary bullshit, intensifying the conflict beyond its already abominable pace!

"well we don't want to legitimately-" shut up this isn't about legitimacy, what gives Israel "legitimacy" is a large populace who want Israeli citizenship & an army, you can't word game that out of existence.

Deal with reality! The victims of Israeli occupation certainly are!
