Countries can change wildly in a generation. They don't get a good behavior pass for historical dates when different people were in power or even alive.
So as long as Israel is jewish we should let it do whatever it wants? What exactly would Israel have to do to the Palestinians before they cross the line in your opinion?
No, I'm not saying you should let it do whatever it wants. I'm saying you shouldn't have a double standard where only Israel's victims get you exercised and not those of China[1], Russia[2], Syria[3], Sudan[4], Pakistan[5], Turkey[6], Yemen[7] and more.
This isn't whataboutism. This is asking about a double standard. The world failed to get anywhere near as excited about the other cases. If that applies to you as well, I'd love to hear an explanation why that doesn't include the J-word.
I agree with you. Israel’s mistreatment of Palestinians should stop and the mistreatment those countries do should also stop and I don’t think we should let any of those countries do want they want with the excuse that some other country is also doing a similar bad thing.
I also think that when criticizing China we don’t need to bring up criticism of Israel in some kind of “equal criticism” principle to avoid offending China or visa vera.
Genuinely asking you. Why do you think only one of these conflicts triggers protests around the world? The first protests even before Israel fired a single shot?
> “This level of organization only exists on one side of the conflict,” said Emerson T. Brooking, a former cyber policy adviser to the Defense Department who studies disinformation and propaganda campaigns as a resident senior fellow at the Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic Research Lab. “It exists for pro-Israel voices, and it exists because there are government ministries in Israel that support these tools and encourage their use.”
> Brooking and other experts said they aren’t aware of any similar tools for Palestinian supporters.
