Palestine
A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

This is good stuff. I wish my parents were this willing to listen. Instead they are just awful people all around.
I'm glad that my parents aren't terrible people. My Mom was pretty good at understanding the crux of the issue but my dad took a LOT of convincing.
My Dad has a HARD block on Russia/Ukraine. In his mind, Putin is Literally Hitler and has no justification for wanting a buffer zone without NATO nukes.
Not even drawing comparisons with the "Cuban Missile Crisis" is making a dent.
