To think that antisemitism now needs to be tackled in the strongest possible way?

[LucyWestenra]

The Bondi thread in chat was eye opening.

Forty pages and a lot of it whataboutery, excuses and vile antisemitism.

It’s disgusting.

It needs to be called out. It needs to be rooted out.

I feel so sorry for the Jewish communities everywhere. How can they possibly feel safe?

Which country is the UK occupying in this hypothetical example?

Unfortunately yes, lots of people do. Why else is reform so popular?

And Pearl Harbour was a military target. Unlike the Nova festival.

Reform is popular due to excessive immigration from a lot of different countries that have incompatible cultures to our own mainly vis a vis women and gay people (and Jews) and some of them seem to be unable to stop themselves attacking other people.

And that successive government don't seem to have the will to stop the illegal immigration of people coming in with those views or ability to chuck out any immigrant that commit crimes.

But Reform whatever other policies they have do have that will. And its the number one priority of the country. So thats why Reform are so popular.

Its not rocket science.

Yet antisemitism is boldly sang from the rooftops.

Two wrongs don't make a right. It's never ok to kill children/starve a whole civilian population. The UN commission classified what has happened in Gaza as genocide.

In that case you must be outraged at these murders.

Throw in a dash of bigotry.

It is. So is anti-Muslim hatred. Not mutually exclusive.

I might take a dash of bigotry over the murder of a 10 year old or a middle aged couple. Your priorities are clear.

Great so you can be equally outraged at both. Hmmm

Couldn’t agree more.

The UN is demonstrably antisemitic so their classification is expected

We arm the Saudis. And China. It’s never mentioned though. This idea that all the focus on Israel is completely reasonable and justified just does not tally with the intensity and tribalism associated with it.

But regardless, the point is that the discussion of antisemitism always seems to come back to Israel even when people are saying that they completely accept that British/Australian Jews are not responsible for Israel. Which is strange. We all accept it isn’t relevant but people keep making it relevant.

I just think there is so much moral confusion. People are seduced by this Che Guevara, Nelson Mandela, IRA ‘freedom fighter’ bullshit. Just because in some cases they got what they wanted, it doesn’t mean what they were morally right. The principle is clear. Targeting civilians is always wrong. Always.

Really? What are my priorities, enlighten me please?

Yes. Both are outrageous. Anti-semitism and anti-Islam.

I absolutely agree with you about targeting civilians, this is why Israel is committing war crimes in doing so.

The UN is not anti semitic. It rightly criticises Israel. That is not anti semitic.

Nuking nagasaki and hiroshima was shameful also.

In that case you must be outraged at these murders.

I am, utterly horrified.

Nuking nagasaki and hiroshima was shameful also

This, it was an utter atrocity and must never be repeated.

So why did the UN condemn Israel more than all other countries combined in 2022?

And think of some of those other countries and their records on human rights.

There appears to be a number of posters who do. Ignorance is bliss (sarcasm)

Yes you can, you really can. Both have slaughtered innocent civilians.
