>>513563383Also the "israel is the only democracy in the middle east!" shit is so pathetic.
The logic is basically
>you like a thing>another group has the thing you like>therefore you need to support themI like it when my tribe is safe and secure, therefore I should support the safety and security of rival tribes even when my own tribe is in danger?
I like having money, therefore I should dedicate my life to supporting rich people even when I am poor?
What the fuck logic is this?
I like having food, the enemy army besieging my city has lots of food, therefore I should support the enemy?
You having things I like has no bearing on weather or not I see you as an enemy or a friend.
When it comes to Israel everyone just magically stops applying logic for some reason.
Israel being the only democracy in the middle east is also a self-own in many respects, since that means that all the bad things Israel is doing is the will of the people and thus even civilians are complicit to some extent. If North Korea invaded Japan tomorrow I could at least excuse the common people since they have no say in the matter, but if Israel is oh-so-democratic then that means the common people are the ones setting their colonial agenda. Israel loves accusing everyone else of using human shields while they themselves do everything possible to blur the lines between civilian and combatant/politician. The mandatory military service is another example of this. If every Israeli citizen is required to serve in the military then that makes them all military personnel even if most of them are just serving in non-combat roles. Padding out their military with all of these civilians is just human shield tactics no different from Hamas putting bases under hospitals etc.
