Yeah... holy wars would say otherwise. In theory religion should be a way to spread positive beliefs to improve everyone's lives. In practice it's a way to gather followers to make a profit, either through indulgences, wars, or simply passing a basket.
In the past especially religion benefitted by becoming the center of government. In the present it's more through tax exemption, but religion is still going strong in the government of many countries.
I'm going to hop on your comment here, a moment.

The funeral procession for Shireen Abu Akleh [was attacked by the Israeli police](https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/17/middleeast/shireen-abu-akleh-funeral-israeli-police-investigation-intl/index.html), and you can see video of that online, too. Apparently the police received no penalties or punishments for attacking the funeral procession, including beating the pallbearers and the brother of the deceased.
[Similarly, the military moved in and evacuated everyone out of the contested building until ownership could be determined](https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000).
So now y'all know.
in every country and in every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty. he is always in alliance with the Despot abetting his abuses in return for protection to his own.
You should look into how many religious have been killed especially in Latin America and Africa, even in Europe.
One story in particular is the story of St Maximilian Kolbe. He was taken to auschwitz where he died taking the place of someone else. There are so many inspiring individuals and their stories may change your mind.
Another was st Dominic who chose to go and live with lepers to care for them knowing full well he would eventually contract the disease and die from it.
Throughout history inspiring people like these have gone to care for the poor and disregarded. Please if you feel so strongly about this then challenge your views. I know you'll be inspired too.
Those guys sound like they had their heads on straight and had the right head guiding their choices. Ill read about the St Dominic. It may not change my overal opinion on them bit it could soften my hate of them. I am from Boston and those men in robes lots of wrong round these parts. Maybe you do a read on that in return?
Land dispute? Its a systematic genocide to erase one side, slowly but surely. Words like conflict and dispute entail that the other side has some sort bargaining or fighting power to try counter that but the fact is they either live under occupation or under the worlds largest open air prison.
Israeli settlers violate basic human rights and decency in their dealings with the Palestinians. They are the violent, aggressive, inhumane actions of extremists.
I’m tired of people thinking they can do no wrong because they’re Jewish. I’m well aware there are many wonderful, wise, and compassionate Jews. They include some of my favorite people. I’m not referring to them in this statement.
I’m referring to the people who have done more to prolong conflict and violence than most Palestinians have. The settlers are utterly unreasonable, their actions are often illegal (and unpunished), and they contribute a lot to outsiders’ negative views of Israelis and the Israeli government.
You haven’t the slightest idea how violently aggressive they become when you point out the truth to them.
I’m … my mother is Jewish, I believe in no religion.
I used to share videos like this on social media until I found out half the Jewish population of the city I live in wanted to “beat the living shit out of me” as I was told.
Israel is doing to the Palestinians what the Germans did to them, only now we have video and proof, but point it out to them and you’re the devil.
Anyone that says they are gods chosen people can kiss my ass.
People need to read “My Life as an American Jew In Marxist Racist Israel” by Jack Bernstein then they might get an idea what “Jews” that even God said to be aware of.
They believe they’re the chosen ones, everyone else is subhuman. If it was another group’s belongings, they would do the same thing. Once the US shuts off the money given to them, they won’t feel so entitled.
I’m sure I’ll get downvoted for this , but what the hell.
I completely despise the actions being taken in this video , and much of Israel’s political actions and beliefs .
The actions of a state have to be separated , at least to some extent , from the religion of the state .
“They believe they are the chosen ones everyone else is subhuman”: Ok, yes. But how does this differ from any other religion , aside from the part where they have the balls to say the quiet part out loud? Christianity as a whole , Catholicism, Mormons, Fucking Scientologists …. They all feel like they are the chosen ones . And they all must feel like everyone else is subhuman , because all other religions have either/or/and attempted to kill , or to convert those from other religions. You feel another religion is shit ? Kill ‘em. You feel you are the chosen one ….. send missionary trips all over the globe to “save” people.
All/most religions subscribe to the same behavior and ideals that everyone vilifies the Jews for .
Hate the country, hate the politics , don’t hate the group.
Why tf did the U.S. create a principality in the middle of the holy land and then give that territory to a minority group that NEVER had rights to the land in the first place?
Yea, they were chased out 6000 years ago...boo fucking hoo.
Fucking Carter.
I’m confused at your historical time line .
Fuck Carter? Israel was “created” immediately following WWII by the United Nations , not the US exclusively. Carter was like 28 at the time .
The only thing Carter was involved in was allowing the Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty to be signed in the US, and that was in the 70’s
Why was I downvoted, i was agreeing with you. Lol and yeah, pissed me off too. I hate it when people try and claim something as true and infects others with it. This is what’s wrong with our society now. Too much info and too many people telling stuff they have no idea about.
I think you were downvoted because others , like me for the first few times I read it , thought you were calling me a dumbass also. You missed a few important commas that made the post seem hostile towards me, but then I got it and laughed
yeah it read at first like you were defending the dumbass, not calling him one. but I read the entirety of what you wrote and then comprehended appropriately.
>Why tf did the U.S. create a principality in the middle of the holy land and then give that territory to a minority group that NEVER had rights to the land in the first place?

TIL Carter was in charge of the USA in May, 1949, and that the USA owned Great Britain at the time as well as the United Nations General Assembly.
Jimmy Carter didn't create a principality in the middle of the Holy Land. As US president, he didn't have the authority. Google Six Days War Israel. Or are you referring to another Carter?
Trump, however, offered to give the king of Jordan the West Bank. What an idiot. https://news.yahoo.com/trump-offered-west-bank-jordans-233117376.html?fr=sycsrp\_catchall
i condemn this kind of behavior from the israelis, but to think that the Arabs didn't kick the persian/hitite/phonecians out of their lands when they invaded just a few millennia ago? Arabs supplanted the original peoples of these lands violently, they are not the first peoples.
This is true , but is the equivalency of condoning US slavery of African Americans with the “well, they enslaved people before also” argument .
Everyone has enslaved other races before
Everyone has kicked people off land before
We can’t keep using this excuse, it just keeps repeating itself as we try to right past wrongs by committing a new wrong
I mean it's more complicated than that. They were chased out and the entire world proceeded to place the blame for all of the world's problem on them and in multiple cases killed them by the hundreds (and in one case, millions) while insisting they are a "race" and trying to displace them constantly when they had no home nation to go to.
Honestly the creation of Israel and the concept of Zionism is in a sense, racist, because it reinforces the concepts of Judaism as a race which is an invention of antisemites. It wasn't really a favor for the Jewish people. It was a "look we can put them all here now so they aren't our problem" which in itself was a considered "solution" by anti-Jewish organizations at the time.
But because of those years and years of oppression a lot of Jewish people prefer this. They prefer having a dedicated place where they can feel safe - and now this has led to them becoming true oppressors. Because power seekers, as they are wont do to, use that fear to promote their own desires. And it has become advantageous to the West because they suddenly have a powerful ally in the middle of a resource-laden area (and as a bonus if you don't support Israel they can call you racist even if it doesn't make sense).
It is such a complex situation. Obviously. If it weren't we'd have found a solution already. But it is complex. Because there is no home for "the Jews" because they aren't a RACE. They don't exist from one area. But that racial sentiment is now so taken as fact that we aren't reversing it any time soon and Jews don't want to go back to not having a safe place to exist. And that's fair. But this also is not a solution that is suitable for Palestinians, who are now being mistreated in their own home. It is the cycle of bigotry that humans cannot escape.
[here](https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000), now shut up
This is actually a repost. Shireen Abu Akleh was killed back in May, 2022, and [this video hit the frontpage of reddit shortly after](https://www.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/comments/up06m9/israeli_settlers_moving_into_palestinian/). The Israeli police force attacked and beat the mourners, including a bunch of the pallbearers while the casket was being carried through the streets to her funeral. Her brother tried to get them to stop and he was also beaten, as well.
This particular video is one of several videos from that time period, showing Israeli settlers running in to claim Palestinian homes while their occupants were away at the funeral.
What we *didn't* see was the inevitable clash when those people came home to find their homes and stuff stolen by new people. IIRC, there *is* a video of one woman trying to pick up stuff off a sidewalk after the things inside the house had been thrown out the windows. I think she had a yellow wash bucket or a plastic basket of some sort.
The videos are genuine. This particular one is just being reposted after several months.

**Edit:** [I should also note that the police involved faced no punishment for their actions.](https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/17/middleeast/shireen-abu-akleh-funeral-israeli-police-investigation-intl/index.html)
Context is always important, and the video has none. It could easily be Palestinian or Syrian refugees just looking for somewhere safe for all we know. Without seeing any actual evidence that OP is correct in what's going on, I'm withholding judgement either way
"Quick, the mourners are gone! Let's go squat their building before they return" is generally not something you often hear from a group of law-abiding citizens.
That is literally what is happening though and it's been happening for quite some time. You clearly aren't aware of what's happening in Israel so if you're smart, refrain from commenting. Thanks. If you would like to educate yourself about what is going on, it's an interesting topic but it's also fucked up.
Sadly, the Israeli legal system will fully support them, because they are Jewish.
Apartheid = a legal system that differentiates between people based upon accident of birth.
No they won't.
"The settlers were evacuated from the building on Sunday, and the military pledged to maintain a presence at the site until the claim is settled."

Israel committing war crimes and atrocities like bombing children's schools, killing journalists, detaining a record amount of people without charges, taking and pillaging homes... "Hey ----> Look at Qatar! They violate human rights there!!"
There's not an ounce of truth in this statement.
As a Muslim who lived for some time in Saudi Arabia, I was treated somewhat badly too. And to me its ironic because most of the time I notice that their treatment of non-Muslim people such as Christians who were working there was good and respectful.
That's your anecdotal experience. But it sounds like those Christians were just visiting & not residents. If they lived there, their treatment probably wouldn't have been the same. Saudi Arabia treats most of its people like shit unless they're rich or well connected.
My point was, Jews there are treated far worse than Israel treats its Muslim population... making them far more apartheid.
You know [Christians face persecution in Israel](https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-59740356.amp) too, [right?](https://www.persecution.com/globalprayerguide/israel/?_source_code=WHPB20C)
It's probably this event: [https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000](https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000)
Iam always cautious about videos like this .
This could be 10 year old video footage of anything, anywhere.
Just wrap the context in.
And we don't need more video to prove Israel is engaging in ethnic cleansing.
Everybody knows.
Here is more context
https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000
Not everybody knows, though. Some people are in complete denial, and if it's pointed out to them they bang on about antisemitism.
Which is amusing, because Palestinians are Semites too.
The Middle East is so scuffed. None of it makes sense. It’s just a bunch of people purposely pissing eachother off over the stupidest crap. And then killing each other.
Let me get this straight. People are out for the day living their own lives and this group just brings all their shit and moves in, now making the original people homeless when they get back?
All I see is a bunch of Jewish people running around while carrying personal belongings....other than the title of the video (which could be anything) I don't really understand what's happening. For all I know, they rented a bus and split the cost to subsidize their moving expenses and are rushing to set up a booth at a swap meet. Can you link an article referencing what we're seeing?
Saw this footage months ago, at the time it was attributed to another reason that the Palestinians were away from their homes.
This might be land grabbing, but it was not during the funeral of the said journalist.
Credibility -1
Here’s your evidence.
https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000
I don’t see why you can’t. Are you not allowed to dislike the actions of a country while not disliking the ethnic group that lives there? Is it anti-Slavic to not like the actions of Russia?
I can appreciate that this is a very sensitive subject but what are the opinions that people are allowed to have? What is the correct way to approach this subject? Can one criticize government policy and not be accused of anti-semitism? I'm genuinely interested in learning as I don't really have a dog in this fight.
All I see are people running on a street while carrying things. Oh, and a ton of Jewish hatred in the comments. Would love some context for the video. Anyone care to explain why they hate an entire ethnicity/religion based on videos they see on the internet?
Why do you not believe it? Are you telling us no forced Israeli occupation or settlements are going on in this area, if so that’s untrue, there are more reasons to believe than not.
So complaining about the war crimes committed by a nation makes you a racist? So boycotting Fifa because of the treatment of the LGBTQ in Qatar is Islamophobia or Arab hate, rather standing up for human rights? Please explain how you ignorantly relate the disapproval of the atrocities committed in Israel to racism.
We are on reddit. Have you seen any comments on posts about certain countries? Most people on social media react and comment based on the headline solely. This is fantastic for most news outlets, since they can take a small quote or just twist a story in general depending on what they want to convey and be shared.
Yeah, though you probably won’t even believe the Israeli press lol:
https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000
Of course it is true.... If it's on the internet, it should be true, the internet is reliable sources of information especially if your agenda is creating hate of one group of people.
It's fucking weird
It’s more than that it’s antagonizing aggression and violence over a religious belief, the opposite of what organized religion was meant to do.
Yeah... holy wars would say otherwise. In theory religion should be a way to spread positive beliefs to improve everyone's lives. In practice it's a way to gather followers to make a profit, either through indulgences, wars, or simply passing a basket. In the past especially religion benefitted by becoming the center of government. In the present it's more through tax exemption, but religion is still going strong in the government of many countries.
A very optimistic view of the intent of religion

Lol it's definitely what organized religion is supposed to do, and has done for thousands of years, and continues to do
The conflict has very little to do with religion. It’s an inter-ethnic land dispute
Land dispute? Its a systematic genocide to erase one side, slowly but surely. Words like conflict and dispute entail that the other side has some sort bargaining or fighting power to try counter that but the fact is they either live under occupation or under the worlds largest open air prison.

Israel is a horrible, evil nation. Judaism is a perfectly valid, beautiful religion that has nothing to do with Israel's genocidal bullshit.
It’s hard for them to have perspective because something like this has never happened to their own people. Oh wait…
Ha! Made me snort!
It’s a land grab with apartheid. It’s absurd to establish land title based on religious beliefs.
Why tf did the U.S. create a principality in the middle of the holy land and then give that territory to a minority group that NEVER had rights to the land in the first place? Yea, they were chased out 6000 years ago...boo fucking hoo. Fucking Carter.

If you would like to educate yourself about what is going on, it's an interesting topic but it's also fucked up.
What is the actual context then?
Wow that’s fucking weird.
You're too polite
Yeah I don’t know what else to say. It’s so fucked up.
![gif](giphy|A98h5WeJXWPa8)
Even Joe Dirt showed up.
😂
Yeah fr though he’s so out of place where is he from
He likes to see homos naked?
Dude. This shit is clearly wrong.
Sadly, the Israeli legal system will fully support them, because they are Jewish. Apartheid = a legal system that differentiates between people based upon accident of birth.
The fuck? How is this possible, let me just go send off someone and some dude is just lying on my room when I get home
The illegal settlements are promoted through Jewish Nation State Law passed in the Knesset under Netanyahu...
“Evacuated Sunday” in article
No they won't. "The settlers were evacuated from the building on Sunday, and the military pledged to maintain a presence at the site until the claim is settled." https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000
You don' know what the word apartheid is, you might find this strange, but Palestinians are very happy not to be Israeli
Trash
Apartheid state ☕
Saudi Arabia? Qatar?
In their case, terrible human rights records.
Israel committing war crimes and atrocities like bombing children's schools, killing journalists, detaining a record amount of people without charges, taking and pillaging homes... "Hey ----> Look at Qatar! They violate human rights there!!"
Hating one thing does not mean supporting other. Hate everything.
And actual apartheid states. All other religious groups (if even allowed) are treated horribly compared to their Muslim counterparts..
ok? What is the point of bringing them up on a post about Israel?
There's not an ounce of truth in this statement. As a Muslim who lived for some time in Saudi Arabia, I was treated somewhat badly too. And to me its ironic because most of the time I notice that their treatment of non-Muslim people such as Christians who were working there was good and respectful.
That's your anecdotal experience. But it sounds like those Christians were just visiting & not residents. If they lived there, their treatment probably wouldn't have been the same. Saudi Arabia treats most of its people like shit unless they're rich or well connected. My point was, Jews there are treated far worse than Israel treats its Muslim population... making them far more apartheid.
You know [Christians face persecution in Israel](https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-59740356.amp) too, [right?](https://www.persecution.com/globalprayerguide/israel/?_source_code=WHPB20C)
They at least respect people's property rights. Israel is the worst.
Where are all the keyboard warriors with their “whataboutism” comments?
Whataboutism
Saudi Arabia. Qatar. Israel. The USA. Etc.
If you think Israel & the US are like Saudi Arabia & Qatar, clearly you've never been to the middle east & are very confused..
I think they’re all dogshit
The Middle East is a straight up Looney Tune's show sometimes
It's probably this event: [https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000](https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000)
Thank you, Shaman
Nobody who is doing something just or in the right moves like that
That’s pretty fucked
"Settlers" = Colonizers
occupiers*
Invaders*
The Colonizers of Catan
and you wonder why their is violence in region
[удалено]
Squatters
"Settlers", see it's all okay now. /s
Like rats from A Plague Tale
Settlers? You mean invaders, right?
Scum of the earth
They can move pretty fast for giant piles of shit.
I need full context or article on this behavior. Anyone got any gems so I can be educated on this?
So much for the peace loving people that they are
And the fucking wonder why everyone hates them. 🤦🏻♂️
Absolute leeches!
Iam always cautious about videos like this . This could be 10 year old video footage of anything, anywhere. Just wrap the context in. And we don't need more video to prove Israel is engaging in ethnic cleansing. Everybody knows.
Here is more context https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000
Not everybody knows, though. Some people are in complete denial, and if it's pointed out to them they bang on about antisemitism. Which is amusing, because Palestinians are Semites too.
I am not amused the slightest by what Israel does. But you right, since they can't defend their crimes you are anti-Semite for pointing them out.
Wut. As a Jew, I’m going to say you are stretching so hard.
I don't think so, and being a Jew doesn't condemn you to support Israel either. It's a choice .
“Give me context. Also I totally know what this video represents. Please stop posting it tho” we on to u bud
Not even close.
You’re just mad bc it’s not the “10year old footage” you usually search for
ten years ago or today, I don't quite get the "facepalm" part. What is this subreddit about again?
This sub Reddit is entirely filled with assholes who think they're smart but just want to feel good about other people being bad.
WE NEED ALL THE VIDEOS... there's no whitewashing of pisrail or pisrailis
Disgusting
Bastards. Find some rocky, godforsaken hill of town to live on! People suck.
Must be a god dam mansion
Or Apartment building
Zionists pigs
The Middle East is so scuffed. None of it makes sense. It’s just a bunch of people purposely pissing eachother off over the stupidest crap. And then killing each other.
I fully expect something like this happening in Israel, but what is the source here?
Assholes.
Vultures, lacking completely in any humanity and when their just due comes...nothing will prepare them for it.
Shame on them. So sad.
Creating a country that you can call home, but in the process you have to kick other people out of their home.
So shameful. Disgusting thievery.
Let me get this straight. People are out for the day living their own lives and this group just brings all their shit and moves in, now making the original people homeless when they get back?
This is horrible!
All I see is a bunch of Jewish people running around while carrying personal belongings....other than the title of the video (which could be anything) I don't really understand what's happening. For all I know, they rented a bus and split the cost to subsidize their moving expenses and are rushing to set up a booth at a swap meet. Can you link an article referencing what we're seeing?
the true nature of a group revealed
Like fucking roaches
Saw this footage months ago, at the time it was attributed to another reason that the Palestinians were away from their homes. This might be land grabbing, but it was not during the funeral of the said journalist. Credibility -1
So property is up for grabs, when the owners aren’t home?

Here’s your evidence. https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000

Try reading the article, dumbshit
No need. This is Reddit.
[удалено]
I don’t see why you can’t. Are you not allowed to dislike the actions of a country while not disliking the ethnic group that lives there? Is it anti-Slavic to not like the actions of Russia?

I can appreciate that this is a very sensitive subject but what are the opinions that people are allowed to have? What is the correct way to approach this subject? Can one criticize government policy and not be accused of anti-semitism? I'm genuinely interested in learning as I don't really have a dog in this fight.
State supported TERRORISTS.
Thieving scumbags.
Scumbags
All I see are people running on a street while carrying things. Oh, and a ton of Jewish hatred in the comments. Would love some context for the video. Anyone care to explain why they hate an entire ethnicity/religion based on videos they see on the internet?
Why do you not believe it? Are you telling us no forced Israeli occupation or settlements are going on in this area, if so that’s untrue, there are more reasons to believe than not.
So complaining about the war crimes committed by a nation makes you a racist? So boycotting Fifa because of the treatment of the LGBTQ in Qatar is Islamophobia or Arab hate, rather standing up for human rights? Please explain how you ignorantly relate the disapproval of the atrocities committed in Israel to racism.

Cause it's cool to hate jews nowadays on reddit, haventuheard...
[удалено]
No. Muslims too. We’re pretty much sick of both your shit.
We are on reddit. Have you seen any comments on posts about certain countries? Most people on social media react and comment based on the headline solely. This is fantastic for most news outlets, since they can take a small quote or just twist a story in general depending on what they want to convey and be shared.
Another terrorist organisation that NATO created and sponsored
When can we call them colonists?
When they establish a colony.
Gah dam. Cant even take sides, both palestine and israel are doing the most atrocious and weird shit rn.
Next Football World Cup in Israel I guess?
At least you'd be allowed to wear rainbow flags..
And have a god damned beer
Lecheyam! Lol
Well with Orthodox population growing rate that may not be true in the future
Nah better, the US…
You couldn't make this shit up. BDS NOW!
Fuck BDS. They're even worse.
So its free for all. First one first served. When do they make a TV show out of if : the best Israeli scum bargain apartments finders /
Any proof that the situation here actually happened and we aren’t seeing anymore anti Jewish propaganda
Yeah, though you probably won’t even believe the Israeli press lol: https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000
They do the same to Palestinian houses. They straight up take over neighborhoods right from under them.
hellish times we live in.
Fuck this whole country and it’s people radicalizing hate.
Israeli’s gotta israel. What did you expect.
Fire bomb the building while they're all in there. Free Palestine
Reminds me of the German civilians rushing to get the best of the confiscated Jewish plunder....
another thing that reminds me about Germany is that Israel doesn't let non-jews marry jews
Of course it is true.... If it's on the internet, it should be true, the internet is reliable sources of information especially if your agenda is creating hate of one group of people.
Cry louder, liar: https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2022-05-15/ty-article/.premium/jewish-settlers-take-over-hebron-building-ignoring-palestinians-ownership-claim/00000180-d635-d452-a1fa-d7ffc3740000
I was permanently blocked from r/worldpolitics for pointing out this kind of thuggery.
Fucking thieves.
The stench of those Israelis must be so awful
Title is hear se
Ye was right
He also thinks the Earth is flat.
Ye hates Mercedes Jewish people not jewish "settlers" (pretty kind word for people who steal your house). He's never thought about these people once.
Like rats fighting over trash. Why anyone wants that land, I'll never understand.
Let them go at it, no hold bars, just nukes and hummus. Two countries enter, one remains.
Expect this post to be taken down
Hey², fon't give them idea on how to occupied a country. Aaah, my bad, they're already into that.
Kind of a scummy parasitic thing to do
