How long will the world continue to tolerate Israel's egregious war crimes?

If being against genocide and war-crimes makes one a jihadist, then the vast majority of the world is a jihadist, making the term itself useless. You can just say 'everyone'.

Part of the problem is the conflation of Zionism with genocidal government. There is no room for nuiance. A Zionist can want Israelites to live in peace where they currently are and not harm others, and certainly not commit horrible atrocities against other people. Yet, even this kind of Zionist is under their own genocidal threat, "from the river to the sea", and instead of their being a sensible perspective of "may…

Seriously, when ate the war criminals finally dragged before courts and sentenced like their forebears in Nuremberg?

Nuremberg was only possible because Germany was invaded succesfully by allied forces. All this war crime talk is nonsense. Either talk about sending your own children to war against Israel, or criticize them in other real terms. There are no war crimes against countries who don't recognize the ICJ, and even then, unless the judiciary of the country is consenting, a war crime charge isn't pursued. It isn't a competiti…

I mean, I'll take being allowed to boycott israel and call their genocide a genocide in my supposedly sovereign country, without getting arrested over it.

If you want to understand the mentality of the zionists, watch this: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CzL5_JhA_QT

The whole movie is worth a watch. It was made by Teddy Katz, an Israeli student whose 1990s thesis on the massacre was discredited after legal action by veterans, largely baseless push-back against the thesis which was well researched and strongly supported by primary evidence. The movie is called "Tantura" and was released in 2022. IF you're not an AV person, the wiki on the tantura massacre is worth a read. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tantura_massacre

It pains me to criticize the UN, since they're the best the world has, but if the UN were more judicious on the conflict, it would help. Eg:

For those unfamiliar with the "Dahiya Doctrine"[0] this is exactly that: [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dahiya_doctrine

> The logic is to cause difficulties for the civilian population so much that they will then turn against the militants

The beatings will continue until morale improves!

Nobody says this about any Islamic country

When an “Islamic country” starts getting several billions of dollars in aid from the US and begins “quadruple tapping” civilians, then I suppose there will be some outrage. In the meantime, this outrage appears to be more based in the criminal conduct of a genocidal state than any religious amenity

How do you think Islam spread? Peacefully? Look at history. And look at Islamic texts that preach the subjugation and killing of anyone who isn’t Islamic. It’s much more of a supremacist culture than any other.
