When my grandpa was around 14 years old, he joined the Greek resistance against the German and Italian occupation (smuggling food, helping Jewish people hide). One of my mom's stronger first memories is going to a protest for the war in Vietnam. One of my own, is standing in a protest against the war in Afghanistan, with people screaming "φονιάδες των λαών, αμερικανοι!" ("Murderers of people/nations, [are the] Americans"). Now I go to protests about Azerbaijan with an Armenian friend.

People have always stood against wars, against the deaths of innocent people.

Why now, protesting against the war in Palestine, is wrong?

#palestine #ive been thinking about this for a while #and I asked people yesterday why it is considered antisemitic to criticise Israel #and i got some answers #I think this is one of the thing that baffles me #usa attacked Afghanistan because of 9/11 #and a lot of people claimed this was just an excuse #israel attacked Palestine because of october 7 #and people say they took it way too far/that theyve wanting to do it for a while #so I dont get why this is antisemitic #since it is people standing against any powerful country that kills innocents #and in my country we are very anti american imberialism/wars in general #(not in my country specifically but thats what I know for sure)
