This might just sound like the same old shit others voice with the recent gaza genocide, but ive hated israel for far longer. In high school i read a book called the olive grove, its based on a true story of a Palestinian family that lost every thing to the zionist movement. It follows 3 generation of the family from the first world war till after the second. It tells of the horrors they faced by the us backed terrorists taking their home and land turning away from the atrocities being committed. Its heart breaking, and when i read it in 2009 i didnt fully understand but seeing all the shit done now, i just think this cycle of hate started and can not be stopped.

Idk what else to say, i mean i could go on and on but i dont have the mental capacity to do so while drinking. I recommend others to read the book, it was a very good read when i was a high schooler and i plan to start it again as soon as i can find my copy.

Here is a link to the book if anyone is interested in reading it https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2327988.The_Olive_Grove

    I think most people who call them Nazis are doing so because of the mindset. Israel is forced to exercise a modicum of restraint while Nazis had none at all, but their actions and rhetoric are extremely similar. Not saying no one thinks the IDF is doing things on a similar scale to the Holocaust (I did until like five minutes ago), but that’s not really the reason for the comparison. “If it looks like a Nazi, walks like a Nazi and quacks like a Nazi, it’s a Nazi” is a pretty logically sound line of thinking.

    To repeat myself just in case, the Nazis’ industrialization of death was on a level on its own that hopefully won’t be repeated again, but the Lebensraum aspect of Nazi ideology is replicated almost exactly as a core tenet of Zionist thinking. This is why they’re called Nazis.
