    Being anti-israel is easily the most pro-Jewish thing you could possibly do in today’s political climate

      Aren’t Israel people mostly Jews?

        Not sure. As of 2022, it seems it that occupied Palestine was still mostly Palestinians: Jews now a 47% minority in Israel and the territories, demographer says

        But I don’t think this is especially germane to Zuberi’s point.

          Even at 47%, it would still be the country with the highest percentage of Jews, no? (if true, which I don’t think it is according to other more credible sources) so I don’t see your point

    The third holiest site in Islam. Access restricted.

    Huh.

      IIRC the Crusades were launched for similar reasons. Not saying either “holy war” is justified, only that fundies on either side act as fundies do.

      I am sure the Muslims will remain very calm and let the government know that they disapprove of this action.

      /s

        let the government know that they disapprove of this action.

        … peacefully, of course.

    Of course they fucking are. They’ve repeatedly forced their own entrance into Al Aqsa, and denied Muslim access to it, in the past. In fact, the last time I heard of Al Aqsa violations was during Sukkot last fall, when hundreds of Israeli settlers - [which I suppose we should really start calling “violent illegal immigrants”] repeatedly stormed the third-holiest site in Islam, during the week-long Jewish festival, and were protected by Israeli forces.

    Fuck Israel, and fuck their genocide.

    Three Israeli hostages, shirtless and waving a white flag, cried out to IDF forces in Hebrew. They thought they were saved but they were shot dead by their own “defense force” on 15 December. Alon Shamriz, 26, Yotam Haim, 28, and Samer Talalka, 24

    The IDF have destroyed 24 of 30 Gaza hospitals.

      “They were 3 terrorists” (that’s what Israel was about to put in the press before they found out they were Israelis

      Israel has the right to defend itself against naked people! /s

    Guessing the IDF will blow it up soon because it made them feel threatened.

      They’ve practically completely dug out beneath it (for “archaeology”) so it will inevitably collapse

    The article couldn’t figure out what is actually al-Aqsa mosque.
    The mosque in this picture is the Dome of the Rock mosque. Al-Asqa Mosque is on the other side of the plaza, behind the photographer’s back!
