Islamiphobia and support of Palestine aren't mutually exclusive

You can very easily support an anti-colonial struggle without supporting the barbaric religion the people going through that struggle mostly believe.

In fact, that applies to various other conflicts. Supporting emancipation for marginalised groups doesn't mean you have to agree with all of their views. To think so is mostly a self report that you don't actually care about equality.

Zelenskyy said he wanted Ukraine to be "a big Israel": https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atlanticist/zelenskyy-wants-ukraine-to-be-a-big-israel-heres-a-road-map/

How does that change the calculus, if at all?

It's a very dumb way of depicting neo nazis for a number of reasons because they love the idea of expelling Jews to some other country and also Israel gives them an example of a successful ethnostate that they can point to and say "we want that for ourselves". Additionally, neo nazis don't like Arabs or Muslims either. Horseshoe theory continues to be stupid.

"Terrorists aren't real muslims!"
Are you implying terrorism is exclusively practiced by Muslims? There are absolutely several terrorists who AREN'T "real" Muslims, because they don't follow Islam.

Regardless, if a terrorist practices Islam and believes in the Quran, they are a "real" Muslim, because that is in line with what a Muslim is.

If a tankie completely flouts all leftist values and ideals, and instead just uses it as an aesthetic as an excuse to worship their preferred imperialist oligarch, they aren't a "real" leftist, because that's not what being a leftist means.

I didn't say anything about "real leftists", because its an irrelevant distinction. You either believe in leftist ideas and are a leftist, or you don't and you aren't. Its an incredibly simple criteria, you're the one trying to twist it into a bizarre gotcha.

It's a stupid comparison because Ukraine/Russia is black and white and Israel/Palestine is not. If you're not sure who is right in Ukraine/Russia then you fucked up. Israel suffered a horrible terrorist attack and there are no debates about that. Their response, however, and even policies leading to the attacks don't paint their *Government* as a sole victim, though.

Ukraine/Russia is black and white

It's honestly not. Russia is obviously the aggressor and to be condemned fully and Ukraine defending their nation is their duty and right, but there is a lot to be said regarding the expansion of Western imperial powers through the growth of NATO as a direct result of the conflict.

That might be secondary to the conflict itself, but it's near impossible to separate it at this point.

Pro Ukraine/Pro Israel is basically the position of the western political establishment as of now.

Pro Russia/Pro Palestine is a position held by a mix of tankies and nazis who just hate the west and are anti-semitic as well.

Also before anyone freaks out, my intention here is not to equate support of palestine as a whole with anti-semitism. I think pro ukraine/pro palestine is the best position to hold after all.

NATO is zero threat to Russia when Russia isn't actively invading sovereign nations. The growth of NATO being so near to Russia is a conventional war problem. Any war that truly threatens Russia's existence would not be a conventional war. The US alone has nuclear subs deployed with enough nukes to end Russia forever, and they don't have borders. None of that would ever come to pass without Russia becoming a rogue nation.

all expansion by NATO was from countries asking to be included in order to protect themselves from Russian aggression
claiming that as an acceptable reason for "It's NATOs fault too" is like claiming that an abusive ex husband has a right to stalk their ex partner cause the judge insulted him when they put up a restraining order, like "look what you made me do"

They arent, any more than Klansmen practice Christianity.

I dont want anyone on this board thinking otherwise. Islam shares the ideas regarding the value of human life that Judaism and Christianity do. Read Sura 5:32 if you need any clarification on that.
