This is nothing new. Liberals have always done this throughout history. They put all the blame on individuals to cover up the root cause of these constantly reoccuring wars and genocides.

Netanyahu isn't the problem.

Israel is. The West is. Imperialism is. Capitalism is.

Israels occupation of Gaza and the west bank is wrong.

But, where are you getting this 90% figure? Highest I could find was 65%. Not that any support is acceptable.

Or are we just taking instagram memes on face value?

It feels like this meme is really trying to encourage hate for people just based on where they were born.

So you think the rest of their occupation is okay? I can see where you're confused then.

My gripe was with a post that provided unbacked statistics seemingly to encourage hate based on country of origin.

No need to be passive aggressive, I didn't justify any occupation in my comment.

I believe you as well are against needless hate of people based on things they can't control, like where they were born.

Imagine if said country had in its constitution that an specific ethnicity and specific religion were hegemonic in that specific country, where most of the people that fit in that specific criteria lived outside the territory and had to migrate to it, and the indigenous inhabitants of that specific country did not fit into that category and had to leave that country, or be constrained to very small territories?

"Hate based on country of origin": don't worry, just think that all the Israelis you've ever met and will ever meet have ever been and will ever be against Israel's colonial expansion.
