theres also a ton of people with pro BLM and LGTBQ in their profiles that defend the actions of the IDF, and dont consider palestinians as people, so it really isnt a good indicator of being "good" imo

Agrajag posted:i always find it weird that the media, in the west at least, always frames the people fighting against occupation forces and brutal oppression as terrorists and cowards We spend billions of dollars every year to have state of the art militaries, so you're a "coward" if you don't line up in a field to get obliterated fair & square. What we really resent is that resistance and liberation movements won't make it easy for imperialists. Colonizers ultimately respect the rebellions where their leaders were foolish enough to do conventional instead of asymmetric warfare, like when the Mahdi in Sudan got tens of thousands of his followers mowed down by British repeating rifles & machineguns at Omdurman. One of the Mahadists was even wearing chain mail. How precious.

How credible is the theory that people in North America sympathize with Israeli settlers because they ultimately believe their own settler history is positive?

American Zionists just pretend the settlements aren't happening.

There is an element of it, but it's pretty small. People have such a crappy understanding of American settlement they're incapable of drawing any parallels and most people don't even think of that as having been a thing that occurred usually.

Honestly pretty credible. if you accept Israel is doing evil, then the US did evil and they have to accept that; it's far easier to make excuses than to examine your own culpability.

American Israel supporters are either evangelic psychos, or war of civilization dead enders. If you even tried explaining the concept of a settler state to them, their eyes would glaze over.

Interesting, and how do people here feel about there being a statute of limitations on settlers? I often find that Canadian leftists say some performative bullshit like "If indigenous people wanted me to to leave, I'd pack my poo poo back to Europe", which isn't what Indigenous activists mean by decolonization. In the same way, Israelis within the 48 borders have the right to stay, no? Edit: I hope this isn't construed as a defense of the IDF and Israeli settlements which are far right affronts to humanity.

In the same way, Israelis within the 48 borders have the right to stay, no? I hear people in the West Bank even today say they'd be fine with Jewish immigrants, but the issue with settlers is that they steal land and houses. Obviously they don't speak for some united Palestinian voice, but that sentiment is there. I don't know any group in Palestine that explicitly calls for the expulsion of Jewish Israelis. There is the implication that a lot of the most extreme settlers and Zionists would probably rather move to the US or die than accept one person, one vote in Palestine.

The concept of Zionism is also hilariously ironic when you do a deep dive into the core values and thinking. For the strategy we decided that the best ideal situation is creating a religiously and ethnically homogenous state after doing a land grab invasion! The above also matches the glorious history of Israelite nation which was all above invading a promised land and purging people which didn't make the ethnic/religious standards.. I what other historically failed regimes had similar ideas to create a "utopian" state with religious and ethnically "Pure" homogeneity as the ideals?

To be honest, the Exodus narrative is probably fictional. The Hebrews were probably one of the many Canaanite groups in the area who gradually became monotheistic. Curre evidence even suggests that the United Kingdom of Israel never existed. Edit: gently caress yeah! That firing was one of the most cowardly reactions by a press outlet I've ever seen.

Well I imagine Israel did exist it just didn't match the glorious "superpower" historical spin since archaeologists have dug things like a list of all the super powers they were having to pay off (Egypt / Assyrians)
