In reply to the discussion: You Deserve to be Offended [View all]R. Daneel Olivaw
(12,606 posts)2. Israel, and it's rampant settler colonist theocrats need to stop terrorizing the Palestinians
while claiming to be the victim, mosby.
It is a perverse statement, by dubious individuals or groups, that the poor right wing Jewish fundamentalist are just victimized by not being able to "visit and pray" on the grounds of a Mosque.
There is a reason why they meet resistance from the Muslims since there has been a constant onslaught against Al Asqua for some time now; as there has also been an onslaught against Palestinian Churches and Mosques elsewhere under Israeli control.
I have to applaud the poor victims that want nothing more than to push the Muslim Palestinians out of the way once more, as they have done everywhere that expansionist, apartheid Israel touches, so they can pray on what does not belong to them.
Three cheers for the poor hapless victims as they invade yet another dwindling shred of what was Palestine.
But seriously...
Whenever I read this "poor me victim" bullshit I often come away with the image of an Israeli crying foul to the world as he stomps of the neck of A Palestinian.
That pretty much sums up the illegal Israeli colonist movement.
That pretty much sums up the right wing religious Israeli zealot movement.
That pretty much sums up the present day Israeli apartheid movement.
And yes, all the above, and the morally enablers that make it happen, are offensive to anybody that has a conscience.
