The pager attack that only targeted people who are recognized as terrorists by almost all countries on this planet and only had one very unfortunate civilian casualty? Since when is attacking terrorists and combatants and actively preventing civilian deaths terrorism? You know that hezbolla has been torturing and oppressing the people of Lebanon for years? Do you know that the people of Lebanon were celebrating when the hezbolla leaders were killed? Do you think about how this actually affects the people involved or do you merely exist to hate everything that Jews do no matter the outcome? My empathy is not fake. I celebrate for those in Lebanon who are now free from tyranny. I mourn Palestinians who die horrible deaths. I mourn Israelis who die horrible deaths. I allow the people affected to shape my view.
"Oh the prince of Egypt is a Christian movie" How Dare You! How dare you treat Judaism, our people, our faith, our experience as a mere precursor to your religion. The exodus took place thousands of years before Jesus was even a thought. The Torah was given to us. Not to you. We have a holiday for this event. You do not.
*turns you into a sefer Torah that would be kosher if not for the fact that every time hashem's name is written one of the letters are wrong. Meaning that not only are you not kosher and never going to be used for a mitzvah but you also don't even get the respect of being discarded in shamos. You will not be buried. You will be thrown away like mere trash. You could've been so much more but you are nothing*
Holy shit i have just explained to you why it distinctly was not terrorism also this just shows how little you actually know about the situation because that was most definitely not the start of the fighting. You seem to forget about the 12 druze children who were murdered by a hezbolla rocket aimed at a playground. Anyways yet again it is obvious you aren't looking for an actual discussion and just wish to spread antisemetism. You ignore many of my points when you have no rebuttal. so I'm not going to interact with this anymore.

Hopefully soon I will go to Israel and be able to place a rock on your grave. Maybe I will go to the store and get a special gemstone and use that instead. I will sit and talk with you about how you wanted to hang out when you came home and how we never got to. How you had so much to do, so much to give, so much to experience and it was cut short. I will talk of the times we had together and how I hope you are doing well up in shamayim. And I will cry. I will stay with you until I no longer can but my rock will still be there. It will not decay. It will lay on your early grave when I am not able to. And with it I will tell you how much I miss you.
Hello leftist goy who is driving. On the sidewalk next to you are two visibly orthodox Jewish men walking home from shul. You now have a choice to make. You can either
A. Be normal and continue driving
Or
B. Pull your car over, curse them out, yell "free palestine" and than speed away
Choose wisely
I'm hating on it because it has literally been proven to be harmful to holocaust education and is notably not historically accurate. If you see one of my reblogs it has attached articles about this issue. Also that isn't hating on an actual child, its hating on the fact that the story ignores the real history which is the fact that everyone including children in towns adjacent to concentration camps knew what was going on. Hitler youth was a thing. Lastly your righteous statement about anger makes no sense. Me as a jew hating nazis doesn't mean I hate being a Jew or am in the wrong? Hatred is allowed to exist in Judaism, it isn't all about needless forgiveness like many other religions. You seem to take issue with every single time I as a jew have strong negative opinion.
Whenever someone praises "boy in the striped pajamas" i get so angry that I combust. I HATE YOUR STUPID FUCKING WHITE SAVIOR, HISTORICALLY INNACURATE, HOLOCAUST FANFICTION. "Oh it was so sad when the German boy went into the gas chamber" was it not sad when the millions of jews went into the gas chambers??? You only felt that way for the German boy???
*turns you into a fish who has neither fins nor scales and is therefore not kosher and thus will never get the mitzvah of being blessed before eating*
Again it isn't about a real child I would never say that about a real child the issue is with the ideology and historical incorrectness the story portrays. Also you are ignoring my other points about how this story is notably and quantifiably bad for holocaust education as it is historically inaccurate to the extent that a holocaust museum has put out a statement warning about it.
Also that was a singular comment on it. Let's say I say "killing is bad" and someone says "I agree and also I hate minorities" does that suddenly mean that my "killing is bad" statement is wrong and morally incorrect simply because someone else with extreme views agrees with it?
I don't think me being upset about things that are harmful to the Jewish community means I am unwell. In fact I think its very normal for humans to be angry at things and should be more accepted.

Wow...you sure are making a lot of assumptions about me because of a single post where I criticize something for spreading harmful rhetoric.
I never denied that there were German people who helped or German victims but in the story the father is an actual nazi.
I as a descendant of holocaust survivors have no moral burden to forgive nazis or extend empathy to them.
I don't believe I'm better i dont see how im berating people for being people. Lacking empathy for a nazi is not the same as lacking empathy for anyone who I see as an outsider. I only call criticism dumb if the person refuses to interact with the conversation in a mature way (this is visible from other interactions i have had about this exact subject). The righteous comment was simply about the statement that Judaism does not ask you or force you to forgive those who have deeply wronged you as opposed to some religions that may find that righteous. It was never about people not being empathetic enough it was simply about a bad story doing bad things and people not being aware of the bad things it has done. I don't think that disliking boy in the striped pajamas is an extreme view at all, I think having strong negative opinions is normal and it is very much casual for me because I don't think about these things constantly. I post them on this blog because it is a blog about my Judaism and things related to it.
I'm not sure what I have said or done for you to see everything that I say as infantile and cruel.
Also please don't use Jewish terms against Jews.

This guy is doing all of this over my wacky silly Anti the boy in the striped pajamas post. Bro called me proto-kahanist and shit.
I can't believe it has been a whole year. I can't believe that there have been people enduring torture and confinement for a whole year. Bodies we haven't gotten back for a whole year. Pain we cannot bear for a whole year. It feels like yesterday that I came home and my father told me you were dead. I had never heard him cry like that before. We held eachother and we cried.
Please stay safe out there

Shlomo Ron was an unarmed, elderly man who didn't have much military or combat training. He was a gentle and soft-hearted individual who loved arts, particularly theater, music, and literature.
He loved his wife, Hana, with whom he had shared many years, along with his daughters and his beloved grandson. Shlomo and Hana resided in Kibbutz Nahal Oz, and they had never left their home, even during perilous times.
They were present in their residence on the morning of October 7, 2023, along with their two daughters and grandson, who were celebrating the Simchat Torah holiday. Tragically, their kibbutz was attacked by Hamas gunmen, terrorists who committed heinous crimes against humanity.
They were left defenseless, as neither the army nor the police were there to protect them. In this dire situation, Shlomo had neither weaponry nor combat experience.
Shlomo wasn't armed. He was no General. He was an 85-year-old man with a mustache and glasses. He was quite ill. He had a gentle soul. He loved theater, music, and art.
Showing immense courage, Shlomo left the shelter where his loved ones were hiding and sat alone in the living room of his home, waiting for the murderers. When the terrorists discovered him, they saw an elderly and frail man sitting alone in an armchair.
Heartbreakingly, they executed him, believing he was an easy target. Afterward, the murderers departed, assuming he was the only one at home. Shlomo's plan was to wait alone in the living room to give the impression that he was an old and solitary man.
He understood that they would likely kill him but hoped that, after doing so, they would move on, presuming he lived alone. In doing so, he selflessly saved the lives of his beloved Hana, daughters, and precious grandson, all of whom remained safe in the shelter.
Their survival was owed to Shlomo's bravery. Shlomo Ron was laid to rest in Kibbutz Kinneret, beside the poet Rachel and near Naomi Shemer whom he loved so much. He may be gone, but his legacy lives on.
Despite lacking any special combat training or physical prowess, Shlomo Ron will be remembered as a hero for his selfless act.
