    I wonder if it’ll get to a point where some of the world leaders still backing Israel financially and with munitions actually have to do something. Like, is there any amount of cruelty and atrocity at this point that they won’t fund? Does it literally have to get all the way to concentration camps? Overt industrialized systematic genocide? Where’s their line?

    • The line is where the people in their own countries force them to stop supporting Israel while atrocities continue. This is why speaking up, in your communities, on social media, by joining protests and by boycotting companies that support the IDF, is so important. People outside Israel can not make the IDF stop. But we can pressure our governments to deny any further support for Israel or better yet sanction key players, to pressure Israel into stopping.

      Where’s their line?

      Based on WW2:

      • Cruelty and atrocity: nice…
      • Concentration camps: nothing to see here, everyone has them
      • Systematic genocide: who hasn’t done some genociding at one point or another?
      • Overt industrialized systematic genocide: …only if they attack you first.

      Luckily we now have the Universal Declaration of Human Rights… which everyone is ignoring. Oh well, we tried.
