Blaming it on the Jews never gets old.

Where did I say "Jews"? Please point that out for the whole class. Unlike you, I am able to effectively differentiate the political entity of Israel from the socio-religious culture of the global Jewish diaspora.

I am also aware that IDF tactics have repeatedly included the use of covert terrorist attacks that have then been blamed on other groups to justify their own ends. Additionally the Israeli military already set a precedent for this by attacking the United States military in a similar fashion during the Six Days War.

So, no, I do not trust Israel will not use the IDF to destroy infrastructure in order to continue blocking aid from reaching the Gazans who desperately need it.

Where did I day "Jews"

The IDF website states that most of them are Jews. So by literally combining the letters I, D and F, while also referring to the military organization, you are implying Jews.

They have been historically tied to Jewish paramilitary forces in the New Yishuv.

Their ranks and division titles are all in Hebrew.

Their religious demographic is almost entirely Jewish.

If you are trying to not be antisemitic, you are doing a shit job of hiding it. Your aren't being genuine here, and can fuck off with your bullshit somewhere else like HexBear or LemmyGrad.

This is honestly one of the stupidest fucking retorts I've read in awhile. That's like saying "Christians nuked Japan in WW2." While factually probable (I don't know the religious affiliation of the dudes in the plane who dropped the bomb), it is tying a religious affiliation to a state organization. The US dropped the nukes on Japan, and the religion of the people who did it is irrelevant.

People have a problem with government of Israel, not Jewish people. People have a problem with the actions of West Bank settlers, not Jewish people. People have a problem with the IDF, not Jewish people. It's almost like we are able to separate the actions of people from their religious affiliation. Now, countries in the Middle East that are Muslim governments have a problem with Jewish people as a whole, but that isn't who you are arguing with here.

Saying everything is antisemitism is super lame and not helping like you think

People have been blaming the Jews since the Romans. That's what's lame.

You still don’t get it and are just turning even more people against. We fucking hate the Israeli government who have become genociders. We don’t give a fuck about your religion. Stop hiding behind it and stop slaughtering people in Gaza or literally no one not even in America will listen to you

I really don't care if you're against me.

As usual. A noun, a verb and genociders!

I'm not a Jew boss.

Haven't slaughtered anybody lately either.

You speak for America huh

Blaming it on the Jews never gets old.

Wow so you think black people are antisemitic? Why are you so racist?

Do you see how totally fucking stupid that would be as a response to you?

They've been blaming the Jews since the Romans. That is simply true.

So every time a black person expresses an opinion you choose to silence them? I can't believe the hate I'm facing right now

Wait a minute, I have to check if I have ever silenced the black people I live with....no, sure haven't

You're doing it right now. You're only arguing with me because I'm black. The hate is on display for everybody to see

No I actually have two black roommates. But, it doesn't matter, you will believe what you will.

Yeah, and you're arguing with me for a reason. The fact I'm black has nothing to do with it. It was very disingenuous of me to pretend that your position had anything whatsoever to do with that. I know nothing about you so just calling you racist with no evidence is ridiculous and unhelpful

Attempting to equate Zionist Israelis with all Jews got old a long fucking time ago.
