From paying attention.

-civil rights, Vietnam, Apartheid,
Were they right about Vietnam? I'm sure the thousands of people tortured and sent to "reeducation" camps after the war might have a different opinion.
Quote:occupation of Palestine, etc.
You keep trying to lump this is with the civil rights movement. No one here, or pretty much anywhere, is buying it. I'm sure the pro-Hamas protestor in the post your ignoring agrees with, though. She also approved of 10/07/23 and thought it was a good thing.

No exceptions for special ethnic/religious groups.
Hmm, must have missed where the IDF did these things. I couldn't miss when Hamas did it, because they happily broadcast it. I notice you chose not to comment on the kidnapping and murder of infants. I'd probably try and pretend it didn't happen too if I were delusional enough to be on your side of this issue.
