      Hi. Jewish person here. Israel is a country with many religions, but Jews dominate. There are Christians and Muslims (but not Palestinians) in the Knesset. Also, I’m an American, not an Israeli. I hold no allegiance to Israel, have no interest in visiting, and do not want to do anything to support an apartheid regime. Do not associate me with Israel.

      You know that equating the actions of an oppressive apartheid state with all Jews is EXTREMELY antisemitic, right? 🤦

        Not sure how else you think they are going to win the argument. Justify Israel’s actions? No! Everyone who disagrees is antisemitic. Problem solved.

      Right right I forgot that Judaism’s the first and only location and government based religion where you are only Jewish when in a specific location and agreeing with a specific government. And also that Palestinians don’t exist. God how could all of that slipped my mind.
