    I grew up on a jewish settlement with goons just like these. Racism taught to them by religion and nationalism. Not too far off from a Nazi youth upbringing the way we talked about eradicating Palestinians.

      As a part jewish person I am thankful that people like you exist. People, and especially people that grew around it, should talk more about how dangerous this virulent nationalist ideology is and how much it resembles the nazi ideology in Germany.

    If Europe cares so much about Ukraine having its lands annexed and illegally ocuppied by Russia I’m sure it will care about Palestine being in the same situation… am I right? Am I right?

      This is an interesting analogy.

      Last I checked, Ukrainians weren’t gunning down Russian teenager.

        Nice analogy you got there… because ukrainians have been forced into sewers, literally had family lines ended, and treated like animals or subhumans for decades.

        Id like to see ukrania being occupied for decades and then seeing ukrainians being the ones expected to be tolerant or forgiving.

        “gunning down teenagers” is a funny way of saying gunning down terrorists who have guns and are already killing innocents

          I meant prior to the war. They were not committing acts of terrorism against Russians.

          Which is why I don’t think it’s a very good comparison.

    Deplorable.

    There were some unconfirmed reports that the reason Hamas was able to do so much damage is because 3 battalions that were supposed to guard the border with Gaza were moved to the west bank to protect these illegal settlements.

    The audacity to continue doing this shit while their country is still trying to recover from the biggest terrorist attack in their history is just unbelievable.
