Oh, are you talking about what China is doing to Tibet? Or Russia to Ukraine? Or perhaps you're referring to the suffering of the Uyghurs (China again)? I’m sure the Arabs would appreciate your help in Khuzestan (the Persians are really fucking them there). Or are you implying that you're focused on the 6.7 million refugees forced to flee Syria, and on bringing to justice those responsible for the deaths of 230,000 civilians? Or maybe you're thinking about the raped women in Darfur [0]? There are so many real evils to choose from—not imaginary ones involving Jews. But I know what you’ll end up choosing... the hallmark of anti-Semitism. Live with it.

> There are so many real evils to choose from—not imaginary ones involving Jews. But I know what you’ll end up choosing... the hallmark of anti-Semitism. Saying that antisemitism is the reason people care about Israel killing 15,000 Palestinian children is pathetic and contemptible. You're abusing that term.

  15,000 children is an imagenry number. But my point is that as soon as you apply different rules to Jews that is antisemitism. Pure and simple, there is no way around it.

    As of 13 May 2024, the U.N. has reported that the 35,000 who have died in the conflict includes 7,797 minors, 4,959 women and 1,924 elderly[52] with confirmed identities. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_Israel%E2%80%93Hamas_war https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_Israel%E2%80...

    The figure of over 15,000 children killed comes from the Gaza Health Ministry, which bases its figures on sources like hospitals and morgues, and which has proven to be reliable in past conflicts. Your accusations of antisemitism are just a bad-faith attempt to shut down all criticism of Israel. There's no point in even taking your accusation seriously. Find a better argument.

We're also done with whataboutism, and nonsense accusations of antisemitism.
