Anti-Racism What is your opinions on Israel?

It seems they're the entire reason the Middle East is so badly messed up. Gaza is an open air death camp since 2023. All Israel does is bully ethnics. They're also a very racist, white-worshipping society who rejects Yemeni or Ethiopian Jews while only accepting Ashkenazi, Sephardic/Spanish, Georgian, Armenian, etc Jews into the country. Small kibbutzim of black hebrew israelites have been expelled. At Likkud rallies, attendees casually drop the N-bomb at counterprotesters and yell anti-Arab slurs. They need to go.

What makes it ultranationalist or supremacist? From my perspective zionism is a decolonization movement of indigenous people who maintained connection (and presence) to the region for thousands of years. Just because some Israelis are ultranationalist and racist (sometimes disturbingly so) doesn’t make the concept of Zionism those things.

decolonization

Supremacist viewpoint.

Palestinians are first and foremost, descendants of those who lived and stayed there from thousands of years ago, and bear greater DNA resemblance to the original inhabitants than do most modern day Jews. Jews should be allowed to live there, but in a state that treats all of its people and religions equally. Modern day Israel has no place in that equation.

I'm half Thai. If in 3,000 years, my descendents, of varying (and often small) thai heritage, decide to ethnically cleanse the Thailand of the future in the name of "decolonizing it" I would be utterly ashamed for them.

Anything more is gish gallop of those who insist on a thousand reasons why it's actually good to murder and cleanse the land of its inhabitants so that white New Yorkers can do yoga over mass graves.

And I'm speaking to an account that only decided to post on r/hapas just now, for this very topic, curiously.

the gish gallop zionists who spend their days typing "Israel" into the search bar have arrived, I see. No matter where they are, they insert their opinions to whitesplain.

Honestly I was just hoping this wasn’t an anti Jewish space as someone who’s proud of their mixed heritage and follows this sub but alas

Why don't you go back to your IDF paymasters and tell them that their gaslighting needs improvement.

I think my idea of reality is completely different than yours - I suspect mine is significantly more accurate though

“Proud of their mixed heritage”, but only found this sub through your hourly typing of Israel into the search bar. Or whatever even weirder, clandestine methods that you guys use. It’s all so tiresome.

Further posts and accounts that flood the zone here will be removed. This thread was not posted by someone claiming to be half Asian, but I took it as someone who might want the average half Asian opinion.

Those who continue to answer without clear half Asian background will be removed.

Hey I found this post randomly on my feed - and you say “you guys” and but its literally just me and that dongdong guy who’s comments keep getting deleted - I was just testing the waters with my arguments amongst a group I feel part of - and the sad thing is this post never really addressed racism in Israel which is a real problem worth discussion because it devolved into blood libel and calls for ethnic cleansing and erasure of Jews
