I am writing as someone who ALWAYS spoke up against any form of antisemitism, ever since as a teenager, I heard about the horrors of the Holocaust.

With respect, you need to take on board the fact that Israel was created on a foundation of terror, perpetrated by Zionists whom all the Jewish people I know and respect, recognise as a flavour of fascism.

Both secular and religious Jews, understand that Zionists are using the terrible suffering of Jewish people during World War II, as a cover under which to destroy Palestinian homes and lands and claim the 'right of return’ for Jewish people living anywhere on the planet.

Those people of Palestine, dispossessed of their homes and lands, for generations after 1948, have no right to get back ownership of their homes, which their grandparents fled from at the point of Zionist guns - now you, think you can go there, benefit form those injustices which have only multiplied in the vehemence of the occupying force, and you are not thereby, benefitting from that violence, ongoing for over 70 years?

Can you honestly not see how you would be legitimising the violence which Oct 7th was a response to?

Why the heck is it that white Europeans /Americans praise the Resistance fighters, who during World War II, used VIOLENCE against the invasions and occupations of the Nazis in say, France - that is righteous, they are heroic, but any resistance to the occupation and slaughter of them, by the Palestinians, is not?

The fact is people are so scared of being called anti-semitism', that Israel has felt it really can get away with murder, and indeed they have been doing, for over 70 years.

Any deaths in a conflict, are terrible, but do you see how many Israelis are CELEBRATING the immense suffering of people who are getting slaughtered in their sleep, people who have no air defense capabilities . Worldwide, people are seeing through the lies of Israel, and understand it is an ongoing planned, slaughter. About time!

Viva South Africa and Palestine, Namibia, Bolivia and Pakistan, and all the Global South who has been pulverised and their resources stolen , for decades, if not centuries.
