So you want you elected leaders to save Palestinians (perfectly reasonable), but don't want your elected leaders to consider doing something out when thousands are being massacred in the street?
You really think if the US wasn't supporting Israel, no one would have cared about Gaza?
- pessimizer 8mo ago> So you want you elected leaders to save Palestinians I don't want that. I want them to stop paying Israelis with our money to kill Palestinians. If they want to do atrocities, they can do it on their own dime.
- fortzi 8mo agoSorry, but it sounds crazy to me, I don’t know what to make of that. Do you care about those people or not? Sorry, unless I’m missing something, what you said just sounds like a cop out.

- ipv6ipv4 8mo agoThat's because it is a cop out. When talking about Israel, it's always couched in terms of universal human rights. When confronted with their lack of advocacy for the human rights of practically anyone else, their cognitive fallback is that they only care for what they feel the U.S. government is responsible for, and that it's not really about universal human rights, and never was. Then, when no one is paying attention anymore, they swing back to being avowed universal human rights activists who just happen to be condemning Israel.
