    And why do you think they hate Jews?

    Because of how Israelis treat them.

    That conflict may have lasted 70 years, but those citizens certainly haven’t.

        For the last 2500 years, the Jews have been the bad guys. That’s why they’re worthy of hatred

        Speaking of naïve…

        The internet has demonstrated the people of seperate nations don’t hate each other intrinsically, but are driven to hate by rhetoric and doctrine fueled by precarity or adversity.

        Regardless, my prescription comes from classic COIN philosophy, not identity politics propaganda. Besides, if bullies — those with the capacity to decide whether or not to cast garbage on thosr weaker than they — continue tonharm when they choose to stop, it is their behavior that fuels hatred and justifies their reputation.

        Plenty of jews are kind and even protest the IDF offensives. But those who toss rubbish on Hebron Palestinians are showing a different character.

        It’s not black and white.
