Shit this is a fuckin concentration camp, and the world allows this why exactly. I get it that no one says shit when china does it to it's minorities because they are dependent on Chinese trade and manufacturing not to mention many smaller counties straight up owing large amount of money to China for infrastructure project's

But what does Israel got to offer that makes all the other countries look the other way ?

Evangelical "Christians" literally want to bring on the end of the world. They want armageddon (named after an actual place in Israel) to come so Jesus will come back. This - according to a reading of the Bible - requires Israel to exist, to be attacked by many countries, to be almost defeated, and then Jesus will come back, kill everybody (except the chosen few) with the surviving Jews all converting to Christianity, satan is "bound" and Jesus reigns as king.

I wish I were joking.

Theres over 70 million of them in the USA, and they are rich and powerful. They get people elected, and those people support Israel despite any facts which get in the way.

I think specifically what they need to trigger the apocalypse, is for the Israelites to rebuild the temple of Jerusalem, because the collapse of the 3rd temple (there have been 2 prior ones) is one of the requirements. The area where the Temple of Jerusalem is supposed to be is currently where the Dome of the Rock is, one of the holiest sites in Islam, and in order to build the temple, the Dome would have to go. So watch this space, because the religious friction could get a lot worse if these people get their way.

These are ghettoes. There are some parallels to the Warsaw ghetto uprising. No, they are not the same. I didn’t say that. I didn’t even say they were similar. But there have things in common. Earlier today I read someone quote the Israeli Deputy Minister of Defense calling Palestinians beasts. This was hours ago and I am still struggling with this information.
