Israel's actions in Palestine are causing concern, with some justifying and supporting it. However, compassion for Israelis shouldn't ignore the oppression of Palestinians. Supporting Israelis' safety doesn't mean endorsing genocide. Staying silent implies devaluing Palestinian lives. Seeing Palestinians as less than human aligns with terrorists' worldview. Let's remember our shared humanity.

We are watching Israel commit large scale genocide/ethnic cleansing in real time, with the US govt and much of the organized Jewish community justifying it, defending it, materially supporting it, celebrating it and quite literally cheering it on.

In a few generations my people went from surviving genocide to reveling in doing same to Palestinians - in revenge for Hamas’s heinous acts this week, but more fundamentally as revenge for Palestinians daring to exist & not letting us forget what Israel’s done to them for 75 yrs.

You can have compassion for Israelis without dehumanizing Palestinians or ignoring the structural violence and oppression of Israeli occupation and apartheid. You can support Israelis’ right to not be massacred by Hamas without giving Israel license to commit genocide.

The only way to stay silent or indifferent to the bloodbath & incipient genocide Israel is meting out to Palestinians is to believe Palestinians are less worthy of the life & rights & dignity you claim for yourself & your community, under whatever moral/religious code you follow.

And if in your anger, trauma, or desire to avoid contending with politically difficult realities you choose to see Palestinians as less-than-fully-human & deserving of genocide, you have lost your own humanity & embraced exactly the same worldview of terrorists.
