See, now you lost all credibility. There’s no honest reason whatsoever to add “and the Jews” to that sentence.
Israel is not “the Jews”.
What? They weren’t actually making that argument, you realize that right? I think you’re literally agreeing with them.
Yes they are, reread the comment. They’re making a boring logical platitude, but they’re equating Israel with “the Jews” in a way that’s irrelevant to their point.
Again, there was no honest reason to add “and the Jews” to their comment other than to equate Israel with Jewish people in general. That’s a tactic used by pro-genocide people to accuse anyone that protests Israel of being anti-Semitic.
No, they were summarizing the position of the people that they disagree with… Like you see the quotes, right? This isn’t what they say or believe. It’s pretty clear to me, from that one single comment, that they 100% don’t equate Israel with “the Jews.” It’s like the entire point of their comment.
Maybe go back and reread what they said?
