Zionism is NOT Judaism. Opposing the crimes of Zionists does NOT make you antisemetic - it makes you an individual with morals who doesn’t stand for colonialism, genocide and ethnic cleansing.
If you can understand that a group like ISIS is not Islam, you can understand that Zionism is not Judaism.
Zionists want you to believe that this is all a sort of ‘religious’ battle. No. Palestinians are comprised of Muslims, Christians and Jews. But didn’t you know? Even Palestinian Jews aren’t the right race or language or color, apparently. Guess you gotta be a white European-descent settler to count.
No matter the race or ethnicity or religion of the foreign settler, the real problem here is the occupation. Stealing people’s lands, driving them from their homes, killing their families, stealing their resources, trapping them in an open air concentration camp (Gaza), terrorizing them, etc. That’s the real issue, and Zionists are utilizing everything in their propaganda media warfare to not show you.
Palestinians in the 1948-occupied territory march to the sites of the pre-1948 villages of Hawsha and Kasyer marking the 76th anniversary of the ongoing Palestinian Nakba, today.
The March of Return occurs yearly as a commemoration of the Nakba, the “catastrophe” in Arabic, when armed militias, which would later become the Israeli military, expelled 75% of Palestinians from their homes and lands to establish the State of Israel.
Each year, Palestinians commemorate the Nakba in this symbolic demonstration at the site of a city or town that Israel destroyed in 1948, honoring the Palestinians who were violently uprooted and demanding that one day all Palestinians in exile can return.
I think this is a good opportunity to educate people on the history of Palestine, the Nakba, and how it happened to show why what's happening today has been happening for the last century. Here's a documentary series that uses archival footage, official documentation, Israeli and Arab historian accounts, and personal accounts from Palestinian refugees to tell the story of the colonization of Palestine. Remember to click the Read More in the link to look at the episodes.
Even if you don't plan on watching it, I would still appreciate if you could share this so access to this knowledge is more widespread.

The IDF Should Not Exist! The State Of Israel Should Not Exist!
"What Israel is doing right now has nothing to do with antisemitism.
What Israel is doing right now is a Genocide.
What Israel has been doing for the past 75 years is Apartheid, is Occupation.
There is no need for any one of us to serve in the IDF.
The IDF should not exist.
The state of Israel should not exist."
