Or a hope that you guys will stop calling for the genocide of an entire people? How can you be so nonplussed by this? |
Yes when there is no rabble rousing or burning flags or blood stains on the White House there isn’t disruption or traffic problems. It was nearly 300k people there, don’t live in alternative facts. |
We aren’t calling for a genocide. Please actually listen to what we are saying, or just leave us alone. |
Israel has been actively engaged in genocide for 75 years. That is the entity you are supporting. Anything short of a complete rebuke of Israeli settlement and colonization is a call for genocide. |
Right. A "genocide" by a nuclear power that somehow hasn't been successful in 75 years, and has actually resulted in a population explosion. War is terrible, but it's not genocide. |
That may be. Let’s assume it’s true. It still isn’t the fault of the Palestinians. |

Reminder: This thread is about the pro-Israel rally in DC.
If you want to continue your debate about Israel, the land around Israel, the history of Israel, or the war currently going on, go to the other thread on the Gaza war. |
You aren’t familiar with the law on genocide. It includes numerous actions, including forceble transfer of population and home demolition. A genocide need not be successful to be genocide. |
We were talking about Jews being European or not. They are not. They are indigenous to Israel/Palestine, just as Palestinians are. |
We leave YOU alone?!? Israel came to us. Palestinians would love nothing more than to be left alone. |
No, you aren’t familiar with the definition of genocide. Before you get to the actions, you have to have the intent. Specifically, “the specific intent to destroy in whole or in part a national, ethnic, racial or religious group”. Israel doesn’t have that intent, as numerous posters here have explained. Yes, I know you disagree with that, before you reply. |

Ashkenazi Jews came to Palestine from Europe. The Palestinians did not invite them. The English, in their infinite generosity, decided to gift Palestinian land to people from Europe. I don’t blame the European Jews for wanting a place to live, but I do blame them for cleansing the land of everyone but Jews. |
Same, it was refreshing to see a protest that didn't include vandalizing government property, attacking counter protesters, and chanting terrorist slogans like the pro-Palestine march |
And/or and/or and/or. There’s a difference. Jews are fully entitled to express and practice their religion without being bothered. Israelis are a different group entirely. They are citizens of a state that is committing grave offenses against the law. Using my money! I’m entitled to complain. If you want to be able to march in support of your state’s grave breaches of the law with no complaints, you can move to Russia! |
