The people that don't call those that support Hamas

jews appear less visible as mainly of white appearance , better off, more educated and a strong position yet we are fed that anti semitism has gone up by ten folds since October 7th. Most of this is jews taking offence to social media posts where people are expressing opinions against actions of Israel and not personally attacking jewish individuals.

Wow! We’re not even hiding it anymore are we? How could these Jewish people be in anyway persecuted when they are ………. drum roll …….. white 😱and rich!!!

Thousand apologies if I sound very confused, I acknowledge and can draw a distinction between real anti semitism and perceived anti semitism engineered in some peopes minds. A lot of communities are becoming more aware with some people crying anti semitism based on their perception and taking offence to others criticism of Israel.

Just my thoughts, no offence intended to anyone. There is a lot of islamphobia and anti semitism, the Muslims are more visible minority , stick out more due to their skin colour, religious attire etc, jews appear less visible as mainly of white appearance , better off, more educated and a strong position yet we are fed that anti semitism has gone up by ten folds since October 7th. Most of this is jews taking offence to social media posts where people are expressing opinions against actions of Israel and not personally attacking jewish individuals. The media adds to well established narrative that jews are under attack or at risk of, which makes jewish people feel psychologically more vulnerable and feel under attack and makes them hyper vigilant.

"No offence intended to anyone" you say, just before you launch a smorgasbord of antisemitic tropes.

Not only that, you sound very confused. On the one hand "there is a lot of....antisemitism" yet on the other "most of this is Jews taking offence".

@Stopactingsosmall which by the way I have never done. I have personally protested about the right wing Israeli government. So this is NOT about people criticising that. It is about people like you making sweeping statements about "the Jews"

@Stopactingsosmall

'just my thoughts, no offence meant...'

Yet you have trotted out almost every antisemitic trope in the book your post:

Read Jews Don't Count. Read the International definition of antisemitism. This IS offensive. Offensive to me.

Also do you have a hotline to the police that somehow means that you have been told personally that 'most' reports of antisemitism are related to social media posts against Israel? Seriously. As if people like me would have the time to report anti every Israel social media post.

This too, absolutely.
Whipping up fear and anger in the many Jewish people who might try to oppose Israel’s disgusting behaviour. Keep them in line so the murder and land/oil grab can proceed.

You’ve absolutely summed it up for me.

I said that too but I was told I don’t understand this thread.

I actually think all the religious/"person on street" dialogue is all hot air.

People like the ones who have, and will sadly be killed are just being used as pawns.

Some people and organisations (whether they have Muslim or Jewish or Christian names or labels) are, and will be, getting VERY rich on the back of these actions. We probably don't and will never know who most of them are.

They're the ones owning streets in London and penthouses in New York. They have media connections, so of course they can control information flows.

The noisy annoying bloke attending a demonstration or the uncouth settlers captured on film can be the easy scapegoat.

"Women's rights" or "minority rights" only start being publicised when the profit lies in wanting to attack a country or start conflict.

Yeh, everyone suddenly gives a shit about the Uighurs "right to authentically practice Islam". Nothing to do with a trade war with China.

Irans women's rights are suddenly VERY encouraged and important (bear in mind we could take footage from ANY country and edit it and use it as proof that country is collapsing and others should intervene).

If Iran is destabilised in a "colour revolution" (paid for by the USA) who the fuck is going to be taking responsibility for women's safety in the anarchy that follows a collapse of state?

But some "feminists" behind a keyboard in other nations will be banking plenty money from the conflict.

A defence ministers daughter can set up a charity to "Support Iranian Women's Education" and get a cushy role for life and a gong and awards.

How much have defence and weapons stocks risen over the last five years? Who profited from the Afghanistan mess? I think one senior military officer described his job as a "thug for Wall Street".

There's lots of mining companies and aid agency presidents and Directors of NGO funds laughing all the way to the bank, as working class british kids collect their lunch money to help the starving kids they see on the TV.

It's not just the "token bad guys with guns" as well.

Lots of big organisations, charities, "aid companies"...there's so much money in refugees and conflict, they NEED it to keep going.

How much money has flowed into Ukraine, on a tide of publicity and goodwill, to rebuild cities that has just "gone somewhere"?

How much money is being corruptly diverted for the "green" agenda right now? Put "Environment" on it and that's a few million if you're in the right place.

Solidarity goes out of the window for ultra rich people.

I reckon there's "civilised looking" people ostenibly on Israels "side" who profited from those murdered settlers, just as there are "civilised looking" people on the Palestinan "side" profiting from kids being murdered in Gaza.

They'll be sleeping well whilst everyone else is getting worked up and horrified.

The Daily Mail hated Jews for a while, then it was Poles, now its onto brown people. All profit.

And the profits rack up for the owners (and yes, there will be rich Jewish, and Muslim, and Polish people who would and will happily dine with the Rothermeres).

Israel is a US proxy then if we are going to define proxy by who sends money and arms to the region. If even the US can’t control Israel, then neither can Iran control Hamas, Hezbollah and so on.

Ukraine would also be our (U.K. and EU) proxy against Russia then too? Given the money and tanks and whatnot we have all sent to that war.

Are proxies simply the disenfranchised & expendable being exploited by bigger super powers?

Hamas, Hezbollah and the gathering of jihadis in southern Syria are all Iranian proxies.

I’m struggling to understand why the poster thinks Iranians=Palestinians.
It’s a bit like confusing Canadians with Mexicans.
