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.

I cannot make proper sense of what you're trying to say. That's ok though, my communication skills aren't the best either. Which is apparent from the fact that you seem to think that I am somehow defending China's foreign policies and discarding America's genocides.
So, let me explain in more concrete terms.
China has been fighting the Taiwanese, the Ughurs, the Tibetans and whatnot in some of the most inhumane ways possible. They are generally considered masters of genocide. One of histories biggest genocides, the great leap forward, was commited on their own people. I'm not entirely sure if you can really call it a "genocide" but the numbers are what matters. 40 to 70 million deaths.
Now this same China basically says that what Israel is doing to Palestine is bad. They're giving palestine's fight to defend themselves legitimacy. In this case I think that's the highest form of legitimacy you can get. It's basically the worst genocidal maniac telling you that the genocide on your people is wrong. You might explain this as a pot and kettle story, maybe it's more "Israel bad" and less "palestine good", but this is how I explained it.
America on the other hand is not speaking up for Palestine, so it's of no use to compare their trigger happiness to Israel right now eventhough the comparisons are easily made.
And by the way, I'm tend to be more for China these days than for the USA, but there's a lot of nuance either way.
Wow this is the first time I'm hearing about this. Can you tell me more?
Gotta love how they come up with such wacky titles. "Masters of Genocide" sounds like an overly edgy (or honest-to-life American) 80s action figure line.
Funny how they say "masters of genocide" like they don't live in a nation that's part of a geopolitical group that has killed billions and has actually engaged in many genocides throughout History.
Pretty much. Most if not all of the Anglo-settler colonies (US, Canada, Australia for sure) are literally ongoing scenes of crimes against humanity in this regard, with millions of skeletons in their closets each.
