Hey You Just Reblogged One Of My Hunger Games Posts. I Came On Your Page Because I Was Excited Because

hey you just reblogged one of my hunger games posts. I came on your page because I was excited because maybe you were a potential mutual but then I found out you support genocide and colonization so. why and how do you like the hunger games as a zionist? Do you really think it just has no relevancy to our modern day politics?

I hope these questions were asked in good faith, so I will answer them as such.

I am against war and genocide and colonization. I think war is one of the worst things humans can engage in, as the results are catastrophic for everyone involved. I do not support war in the Middle East or anywhere else and will always advocate for peace.

However.

When it comes to the situation with Israel and Gaza and the Palestinians, I can recognize that it is a complicated issue. Israel has, historically for at least 5,000 years, been the home of the Jews. The Jewish people were there before the Roman Empire and there is archeological evidence backing this up. The people who call themselves Palestinians are Arabs from when the Arab world and the Muslims invaded and subsequently colonized Judea.

Due to this invasion, and the antisemitism on the part of the invading Muslims and Arabs, the Jewish people were dispersed away from their homeland. They faced discrimination everywhere and suffered for their heritage in every country they found a home in, always the minority. And they had no country, no home to return to in order to escape this persecution.

Then, after WW2 and the Shoah (or the Holocaust), the British Government took some land within the area of what was then called the Palestinian region but was historically known as Judea, and set it aside as a place for Jews to call home so a genocide of the Jews could not happen again. Arab and African countries have since kicked out their Jewish inhabitants and sent them to the new country of Israel.

I do not support every action of the Israeli government. They have bombed hospitals and churches (which, as a Christian, is galling) and have killed innocent people. But I support the existence of Israel as a country and home for the Jewish people, who elsewise would not have a home or a people.

I also recognize that Hamas is to blame for a large portion of the suffering of the Palestinians in Gaza. Gaza was supposed to be the answer to the Two State Solution, if I recall my history of the area correctly, and it was supposed to be a place for Palestinians to live in their own country and be self determining. Instead, they voted for Hamas, who has hidden inside hospitals and schools and have fired on their own people and has stolen food and water from them and spent money on rockets instead of necessities like electricity and plumbing. Hamas, who took hundreds of captives from a music festival and refused to give them back, even with the promise of a hostage release program and a cease fire.

Israel is far from being a genocidal and colonial country. It is imperfect, and it has committed atrocities. But there are many Arabs and Palestinians who call it home and who are not treated any differently than the Israelis who live there because they have no where else to live. In fact, the Arab and Palestinian population inside Israel has grown exponentially while the Jewish population outside Israel has declined rapidly. To the point that I'm pretty sure the USA is the only other country besides Israel to have any sizable Jewish population.

Does that sound like colonization to you? Does that sound like genocide to you? If the Jews truly were genocidal and colonial like you are suggesting, they would have far larger reaches of land under their control. The Palestinian population within their own borders would shrink. Arabic would not be a language taught side by side with Hebrew in many cases. They would not have ceded control of Gaza to the Palestinians and removed any Jews living there from the area.

The loss of human life is always a tragedy. I mourn for the lives of the Palestinians who have been lost. I also mourn for the lives of the Israelis that were lost in brutal ways. I cannot forget the horror I felt when I heard of 10/9, the evil that Hamas committed. They killed at least one child by tossing them in an oven to burn alive and made the mother watch before killing her. They drug the dead body of a woman my age through the streets after gang raping her. They shot innocent people my age at a music festival. They were the ones that started this war, and every other war they've had with Israel. The other wars Israel has been involved with were started by other terrorist organizations or other Arab countries. I pray that, one day, Palestine is free from Hamas and the Middle East from terrorism and we can actually work for peace instead of fighting the same wars over and over again.

I hope this answers your questions.

God bless, my friend.

Could y'all fucking IMAGINE if Leftists treated other groups the way they treat Jews?

If, because of what's happening in Syria with the Druze, they started harassing every Muslim they came across and chanting- "Muslims are shit" -and saying that they should all be killed for the actions of a government they have zero control over.

If, because of what's going on in the Congo, they started using KKK uniforms, symbols, chants, and slogans and then, when black people said- "hey, the KKK actually wants to kill all black people and is incredibly racist, you using these things is making us uncomfortable and it's normalizing racism, could you please stop?" -Leftists replied by calling them slurs, saying that they're wrong and that the KKK was just a "resistance group," and that black people are just using racism to excuse genocide.

If, because of China putting Uyghurs in internment camps, Leftists starting spreading conspiracy theories about how Chinese people actually started COVID-19 to kill everyone and spread it on purpose, said they eat dogs and cats, said they control the media/hollywood/politicians/etc. and then---when some actor says something racist about Chinese people and gets kicked off a show/film, or gets kicked off for something COMPLETELY UNRELATED to their racist views but they're known for expressing said racist views---they start talking about how those "dirty Chinese" are controlling the media and "silencing" people.

If Leftists took the word "transition" and changed the definition to mean "I support pedophilia" and then started saying- "90% of trans people want to transition! They want transitioning to be more easily accessed! See, what did I tell you? They're all a bunch of pedos! Kill them all!" -and when trans people tried to explain that that's actually NOT what transitioning means and give you the ACTUAL definition, Leftists proceeded to tell them that THEY actually know more about transness than actual trans people and that trans people are lying about the definition and that anyone that uses the word "transition" is clearly a pedophile who should be murdered.

Like...it's literally fucking insane.

None of this shit would ever fly if it happened to another community, but because it's happening to Jews it's condoned and even DEFENDED.

No religion has actual “magic” because most people don’t believe in it. Ever seen a baby? That’s magic.

judaism disappoints me because there is no magic. There is no walking on water. There is Moses and the burning bush and the splitting of the sea years ago. Any resources to find a positive perspective on Jewish history and suffering and lack of magic? The religion feels very realistic and I'm dying and how much it sucks. There are no gurus.

Imagine having been born in 1905... And all your life it doesn't fucking stop. The Great War, the Spanish Flu, and then you go out of your mind for 7 years. Everyone is traumatised and nothing matters. Then another crash. And then the rise of fascism, and the War to end all Wars didn't and it's 1945 and you're just about still there. You may have fought or ferried the boys from Dunkirk or sabotaged the Nazi occupiers or worked in the factories and put out fires during the Blitz and you're lucky to be alive, because not all your friends made it. But you are and finally, fucking finally, it stops. It stops. You are tough as nails and you can put that strength to work into building something and you do, and people have cars and can buy icecream and you have a pension fund and the kids have money of their own and no nightmares.

I want that for us. I so want that for us. I want to be the generation that has seen fucking everything and is like a MRSA bug and unfazed and when that Cheeto finally dies, I want us to. Plant the gardens and clean the seas because we can and we want to and we remember some joy, some time of trust even when it got broken and we can say to the 20 somethings "let us show you what we can build, how it can feel."

And maybe Gen beta will take it all for granted like the boomers did, but we can give Gen Z and Alpha some peace because we, and Gen Z and Alpha have seen the Dark Times and fuck that noise.
