Classic victim blaming.

Not to mention the rolling of the dice that is currently happening with intersex babies.

There’s been quite a lot of massacres and evil shit generally that’s been done in the name of any religion. No religion is inherently worse than another.

There’s a section of the atheist movement that went deep into Islamophobia after 9/11, and they came out of that aligned with the Christian Right in the end. Not sure if this is part of a grift or just an age thing.

He’s been slowly veering towards becoming a fundamentalist Christian. Waiting for him to announce he believes any day now.

And then what? He just gets sent back to whatever country after having gone through a widely published court case where he admitted to be gay?

For just a few weeks until he follows the Turkish guy going viral path that Salt Bae took.

Seems like a confusing concept for a lot of conservatives.

Oh, this time the IDF isn’t lying?

Oh look, the New York Times uncritically reporting IDF claims as fact, despite their long history of lying.

I guess it depends, looks like you can go back 2000 years for Jews, but can’t even go less than 100 for Palestinians.

Nah, I’m just saying that the whole point of Israel/Zionism is to let a people that was dispersed by the Roman Empire 2000 years ago should be allowed to return to their land. What you just said is that they should’ve just gotten over it and made a life whatever they ended up after one generation.

Or do the rules only apply to Palestinians, not Jews?

Definitely don’t let Israel know about your anti-Zionist views, you might lose your job.

So you think a people should just relinquish their claim on their homeland if they haven’t been personally displaced?

Not to mention, if they really wanted a buffer zone, they’d use the space outside Gaza for that. It’s not built up except for some kibbutzes.

This is a land grab, just like on the West bank. The buffer zone stuff is an excuse.

Yeah, exactly. Nobody’s going to attack China even if technically they can’t cripple the entire country with their retaliation. Losing a few key cities should be enough of a deterrent.

You can take the 30 days in prison instead, and many do. If you know that military service involves being an occupying force (as opposed to just dicking around with guns like in other countries), the moral choice is to do the 30 days.

Not with this pope, but a lot of Catholics are angry about a lot of what he says.

Yeah, totally not a problem to have fascist groups armed with military gear running around in Europe. It was so much fun when that happened in the 80s.

I guess they’re the experts on genocide?
