A new survey showing that 82 percent of Jewish Israelis support the expulsion of Gazans was met with disbelief among those who stubbornly believe that the extremists are outliers. But these trends are as consistent as they are shocking
So… a nation and a religion that was defined by its thousand-year exile by an evil empire forces another nation into a thousand-year exile as the acting hand of another evil empire.
Please understand that this is, on every conceivable level, insanely fucked up and flies in the face of both reason and morality.
The best solution would be to have an integrated, secular government and plans for reparation, return, and reconciliation.
There’s no reason to assume that ancient israel was any less evil than ancient rome.
Furthemore, that doesn’t define judaism. There were thousands of years before and after roman conquest. Zios focus on the roman empire because that’s their shitty justification for genocide, theft, etc.
This isn’t any more fucked up than the genocide of native americans for example. Unfortunately there’s nothing special about empire genociding people. But I don’t think these zios are lobbying for native american rights, because zios are genociders.
Lastly this doesn’t have much to do with “religion” versus “sucularism”. Zionism was largely founded by the non-religious. It’s goals are not religious but purely political/genocidal. The most “religious”/spiritual jews largely reject the zionist regime. Religion is a tool of empire, but the more fundamental problems are empire, colonialism, racism, etc.
