I stand with Isreal
I stand with Israel and support Israel Defense Forces to take whatever action is needed to defend its citizens.
I don't appreciate Biden telling Israel to be careful of citizens, Israel DOES not attack civilians, Hamas does.
adding: we talk about racism in this country, Jewish people have been attacked for years and years simply because we are Jewish, nothing than that. As a group of people we do not hate nor kill others for having a different view.

Re: I stand with Isreal
I stand for peace, respecting each other, and not oppressing and taking advantage of others. I stand for Jewish, and I stand for Muslims. I’m against the extremist beliefs and actions of terrorism and I’m also against the dirty tactics of oppression from the Israeli government. This is not a new problem, it’s an old problem that keeps repeating itself every few years for quite some time. I feel for the Palestinian people that don’t even have their own country, and the few areas that supposedly they’re entitled to, are heavily monitored by Israeli military all the time. To add to this, the Israeli government has been settling communities within those areas for quite some time and as the years have passed, they’ve been expanding them more and more, leaving Palestinian people with even less area to live on even though technically the Israeli government is not supposed to do so. Palestinians don’t have access to clean water, or electricity because they’re denied to have any of that from the same Israeli gov., their worship places have gotten bombed several times killing a great number of children. They’re not even allowed to leave because they’re forbidden to do so. This is not really a Jewish and Muslims problem, it goes beyond that considering the Israeli government decided to bomb a place where there were Christian Palestinians which makes me thinks it’s a Israeli government problem against an ethnic population. It’s sad and I wish the US joined other countries to urge Israel to cease fire.

Didn’t Biden just restore 200 million in aid to Palestine?

I wish there can be peace, I believe most citizens on both sides can live side by side, in peace. However, I will not urge the US to push for a cease fire. If the U.S was attacked over and over you can bet we would send out troops, F-16 and more to stop and protect us. Israel never starts the war, but they will finish it. Hamas terrorists start the war. If Palestinians are watched closely by Israel it's because if Israel turns her back they get attacked.
They destroy the earth and farms, which is why they have no food or water. Their own government kills it's own citizens.
Israel never kills or aims towards civilians unlike the other side, terrorists, aim for citizens, animals, building and homes.
In elementary school I lived in Israel. I remember jet fighters breaking the sound barrier over our apparent complex in the middle of the night and running to hide in the bomb shelters. Americans have no idea what that type of life is like. The closest we came was 9-11, scary for all.

I am not sure how true that is.
The whole conflict is too complicated for me and I try to keep up as best as possible, but it’s really not enough.
All I am going to say is that both sides are not innocent, with land grabs and attacks.

Re: I stand with Isreal
I do NOT stand with Israel.
I stand with the millions of Jews who face an increasingly anti Semitic world and who are mostly horrified at the actions of their government.
I stand with Palestinians who are horrified at the actions of Hamas.
Annihilating a Mosque? Bombing the AP? There are international laws against what they are doing.
Anti Semitism is real and horrifying. However, killing children is not the answer.

I couldn’t agree with u more. It’s sad how international laws seem to mean shit and it breaks my heart how Palestinians are losing more and more the little they have left. Israeli settlements have been happening for years on areas that were assigned to Palestinians and they keep getting bigger and bigger, on top of new settlements being established. It’s even happening now with Sheikh Jarrah where Palestinians are literally removed by the occupation Israeli forces from their homes and forced to disperse to other areas even though this is completely illegal.
I’m glad though that more awareness is being brought to this issue, even by those with a platform to do so.

Agree.
What Israel is doing is horrific. It stuns me that any American, Jewish or not, can’t see the inequality here.

I stand with Isreal
This is a whole pot of yikes but no, I don't stand with Israel. And couching the destruction of Palestine as a "we were persecuted now we can do it to others" is completely reprehensible.
