"Palestinian film director and Academy Award-winner Hamdan Ballal was violently attacked by what his colleague described as a "lynch mob" of Israeli settlers on Monday night in the Palestinian village of Susya, south of Hebron in the occupied West Bank."
Is it okay yet to admit that Israelis and zionists are evil, or still not acceptable no matter how many other cultures they are genociding? I'm not going down the rabbit hole of "jews" because I personally know many other jews who are completely horrified by what Israel is doing in their name. But it begs the question. If this is the end-result...do jews "really" need or deserve their own homeland? Did so many of them survive an effort to genocide them, only to do the exact same to others now for no other reason than grabbing clay and religious fanaticism?
If the I in "AIPAC" stood for "Italy", people would have questions...
Zionism is an ideology, Jews are an ethnicity / religion.
Nazism is an ideology. Germans are an ethnicity.
Plenty of people can be nazis or zionist without being in the in-group explicitly, and vice versa.
Zionism is modern day fascism.
You forgot to mention that the German Reich and Israel are the states.
I just cannot. Their speech was so hopeful. I wondered what danger he'd face. He'll die in custody.
Ballal's whereabouts are now unknown after Israeli soldiers then seized him from the ambulance that arrived to treat him, his co-director and fellow Oscar winner Yuval Abraham, said on X.
Fucking monsters
Just awful.
