As a history teacher I have to say that this video is also quite one-sided. The truth is just more complex.
Obviously Israeli governments have done bad shit. Which government has not? Still it is true that Israel has been under attack from the beginning. And it is also true that Israel has been a stable and liberal democracy for a long time in contrast to its autocratic neighbours. Antisemitism has been virulent since the beginning.

@WorldTravelerAll7
(The leader of the Palestinians during WW2 was a buddy of Adolf Hitler.) It is also true that thousands of Israelis have been protesting against their own government and demanded peace. So let's focus more on the people and let's fight against racism and authoritarianism on both sides.

Again, I agree. I’ve had friends from Palestine & from Israel. But my friends are all liberal, and they got along fine, because they recognize where the fault lies. & they are intelligent enough not to believe the religious nonsense

You’ll know better than me, but I believe many ME countries sided w/ Nazi Germany against the other European imperialists. After all, to them, what’s the difference between a colonialist & a fascist?

But none of my jewish friends support netanyahu...

anymore than my palestinian friends support hamas

So I’m in agreement w/ focusing on fighting racism & authoritarianism. But I would make 1 point:

The jewish extremists support #Satanyahu, muslim extremists support the Ayatollah (or MBS) while the christian extremists want to prepare Israel for the return of Jesus. I would like to offer a hardy Fuck You to all of them. they are human cancer

How do we become a civilized species when most people still worship their invisible sky daddy(ies)?

p.s. I think the Kurds should get their own country between Turkey, Iran & Iraq
