The IDF committed mass war crimes. Chanting "Death to the IDF" is a pretty normal way to react just like it would be

If one chanted "Death to Hamas"..or even against any other entity killing innocent people anywhere..in fact even against specific people holding too much power.

Stop making a big deal out of it..Words are not more of a crime than actual war crimes. Your priorities are effed.

Yeah, it's very telling that the people who are supposedly taking some moral stance against "violent words" are unable to call out the war crimes of Israel and the IDF and instead take to making excuses for them. Calling for the death of genocidaires bothers them because they fundamentally don't sympathize with the people saying it or the people they're defending and they do sympathize with the people being called out. That's really all there is to it. 🤷🏼‍♂

People aren't being punished/canceled for saying "death to the IDF" because "violent words are immoral", but because the powers that be have a vested interest in pleasing the Israeli lobby. Israel is always given an exception.

Agree actions are far worse than words. There are serious war crimes being committed all over the world at the moment. At least some at the behest of America
The IDF have killed millions, around 300 even after the supposed ceasefire but God forbid there's resistance against them.

The followers of Mohammed are actually the followers of Abraham. So that comment makes zero sense.

I find your own behaviors more absurd.. Yesterday's included.

@Miram so they’re the same people ? Why didn’t they listen when Abraham was talking ? Why wait 2500 years to listen to the truth ?

Only a small group of people would chant “death to anything “. Only a small group of people think death of a group is okay.

The IDF isn't you. They commited actual warcrimes. Words being a consequence of that is actually too little.

@Miram I agree w that 2nd sentence .

@StygianKohlrabi mostly for security reasons , with a little payback thrown in for good measure.

You’re still shrinking the issue by framing it as “bombings” or “collateral damage,” when multiple investigations have documented sexual violence committed by IDF, including rape and abuse in detention against both women and men, as well as verified killings of children by Israeli forces , harms that go far beyond accidental strikes. Direct killings..and direct targeting of healthcare workers and journalistsm


Calling all this “necessary for security” is a way of dehumanizing Palestinians and excusing violations that would never be accepted for Israel.

And honestly, no amount of online chatting or friendly rapport should ever take priority over acknowledging the value of human life in general and the scale of what’s being done to it.

I still do think talking about this with you is a waste of time. So I am likely to delete any of your contributions in the future. This is not a new discussion.
