In the wake of the tragic events that took place in Manchester, I want to implore people not to lose steam or, more importantly, hope.

Gaza is still facing destruction, famine and genocide.

We need to continue to peacefully pressure our government to take action and sanction the Israeli government and to educate and inform people about the horrors faced by the Palestinian people day in and day out for the last two years.

People who opposed the liberation of Palestine want for this to be a turning point. For people to point the finger at a movement that wants to see the end of the suffering of millions and label it as inciting hate.

It's not.
And it's important.

Please don't put down your passion for Gaza.

I mean this thread is beyond nonsense. The OP compared Israel to Nazis. Its a generally accepted form of antisemitism known as Holocaust Inversion.

I'm not going to report it as I'd prefer people see OP for what they are. If I were to report it, it'd get deleted for being openly antisemitic. Happens all the time.

People supporting Hamas do indeed have something in common with Nazis- and thats so very obvious I cant believe it needs saying here.

Scary isn’t it.
I was one of the ones who reported the thread.
But you are right it’s best people see op for what they are as well as others on this thread who want to go on their hate marches dressing it up as something else.

I also haven’t reported this thread as I think people need to see and read it and all the Holocaust inverting, antisemitic Jew hating, nonsense, which ignores history and logic and all common sense.

just sums it up. Depressingly there are many hard of thinking people who trot out these hard left tropes. They’ve been around forever, but people are more brazen about them since October 7th.

There's been plenty of anti Islamic comments.

This whole thread is riddled with blatant antisemitism as well as more subtle jew hate.

A genocide where they've chosen to use indirect methods. Starvation, deprivation of healthcare, "accidental bombing" (please evaluate area X and go to area Z and then proceed to bomb area Y and Z).
It's been tactical but it's a genocide.

MNHQ are quick to delete anything they think is anti semitic

I asked a pp to verify why they thought someone’s post is anti Semitic and they’ve conveniently disappeared. Interesting

Bombing hospitals and all means to survival.

it’s more powerful if posts like that stay up: shines light on the insidious as well as blatant nature of Jew hate and awakens people. That’s started to happen already, but we need to continue to expose antisemitism when we see it and highlight it. Can’t be highlighted or noticed if the posts have been removed.

you compared Israel to Nazis, for a start.
Perhaps you’re unfamiliar with antisemitism, what it is and how it manifests. Perhaps this will help you:

https://holocaustremembrance.com/resources/working-definition-antisemitism

I returned someone elses comment and said that Israel were acting like Nazi's.
It's not Anti-Semitic to say the behave of the government is similar to the Nazis, especially when they're committing a genocide.

Are you referring to me?

I conveniently disappeared to have dinner.

I'm inconveniently back to remind you and other posters that drawing equivalence between Nazis and Israel is Holocaust Inversion, like I already said, and is a recognized form of antisemitism. I said it before, and I'm saying it again. Suggesting I disappeared before saying that it obviously disingenuous as everyone can see.

Calling the whole of the Israeli state evil is clearly antisemitic too.

Another reminder that its possible to criticize Israeli policy and government without using antisemitic tropes or resorting to calling an entire nation 'evil'.

You’re wrong again. You’re not in good company if you keep your position this is not a genocide as it’s recognised as such now by an increasing number of countries, human rights and aid organisation. South Africa has said the apartheid politics by Israel is worse than their own ever was and reported Israel to the iCJ. NB is a wanted war criminal
internationally (as is Hamas ofc) so you really need to think who you align with. If you think you are aligning with the Jewish people, you are also increasingly not…

Woah, Nelly. I have been clear that I am referring to the government, not an entire nation. When I said state, I meant the people acting on behalf of that state, for clarity.

I have been consistent here. I do not equate all Jews with the state of Israel. I am aware that there are Jews inside of Israel risking their own liberty to protest the genocide.

Noone is calling the Israeli people evil. People are talking about the politics of the Israeli government.
All Germans were not evil because Hitler was evil. All Palestinians are not evil because Hamas are evil. What’s confusing here?

A non-genocide-genocide where they’ve chosen “not to wipe them out”. Your words.
