If you see and know all of this then why would you fly a flag of foreign country that is committing war crimes.

There is a disconnect here?

Do you think I fly an Israeli flag? Did I ever indicate this?

I assumed you were the same guy I replied too.

Your reply makes no sense then.

Take a look at the reply chain. It's just been us.

Then my point still stands. You can view israeli flag however you want. It got a new meaning now in the mainstream and it is pretty fucking disgusting.

Yet people think it is acceptable to fly it as some sort of pride shit. Jfc. Get a fucking clue, adjust to current reality.

Sure, but you've missed my point entirely. It shouldn't be an invitation for crime. Nor should any other flag besides those regarding situations devoid of nuance, such as the nazi flag or perhaps the confederate flag.

I discussed usage of Israeli flag. You came at me about tone of my post.
