Adding to the mountain of evidence that Israel is engaged in a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, Al Jazeera on Thursday aired footage of what the news outlet reported was an Israeli drone targeting four Palestinians in Khan Younis last month.

Those killed by the unmanned aerial vehicle in the rubble of the southern Gaza city appear to be unarmed teenagers or young men. According to a translation of the coverage, they were not identified in the reporting.

I'm not exactly an atheist .... I believe in something in my own way without following any religion or in wanting to force any of my beliefs on anyone.

But if there is evidence for the absence of God and the folly of Christian/Jewish/Muslim (Judeo-Christian) religions ..... what's happening in Palestine affirms that all these religions are just runaway historic cults that are absolutely destroying our world.

I'm not sure what Islam has to do with a Jewish settler colony, but go on I guess.

This is just western settler colonialism as we've seen for the last few centuries. This region is a bridge between the Middle-East and Africa, and serves as a great base for imperial core countries like the US to destabilize the Middle-East and keep them from uniting.

Its formation used common british colonization tactics [III], with companies literally named "Colonization Commission", "Jewish Colonial Trust" and the like.

Theodor Herzl, founder of the colonial ideology he called "zionism", was himself also just a racist colonizer by his own admission, and saw it as bringing ‘civilization’ to ‘barbarians’ as the rest of Europe did when they were colonizing and enslaving Africa and Asia:

“We should there form a portion of a rampart of Europe against Asia, an outpost of civilization as opposed to barbarism. We should as a neutral State remain in contact with all Europe, which would have to guarantee our existence.” Source [II]

Only difference now is that the US has been the de facto leader of the imperial core since WW2, no longer UK in Europe.

If there is one thing this is showing very clearly, is that Israel never evolved beyond the racist thinking of the early XXth century and the same for all those countries unwaveringly supporting it because it's "the Jewish Nation".

The mindset of Nazism is still alive and well, just more dissimulated and with a different list of ubermenschen and untermenschen.

This has nothing to do with religion. Israeli settler colonialism is all about the land for the settlers and how Israel is strategically important proxy for the US in the middle east.
