Wait, what are you saying here?

To answer your other question, I mean that Israel is a free democratic nation with elections like any EU nation, especially with the parliament system. The parliament system also means that the leader of the party with the most seats is the Prime Minister. In Israel that is Netanyahu, whose party (Likud) is center right to right wing (similar to the Republican Party in the US). So while Netanyahu is the head of Israel's government, he is not a totalitarian leader in any way. The Israeli parliament, which is made up of various political parties with various political views, passes the laws.
I am saying that israel, and by extension, israeli politics, would not exist without their occupation of that land


And I'm asking what land?

Do you mean the West Bank and Gaza Strip? Because Israel would continue to exist if there was a two-state solution and they gave up both of those. Or do you mean the entire state of Israel? Because if you do, that is absolutely anti-Semitic.

the state of israel was built on stolen land. as a concept, it is an ethnostate. as it currently exists, it is enforcing apartheid on the palestinians. its current leader is a fascist. israel is also one of the only countries in the world that has nuclear arms. those are the complaints I have specifically with israel.

for what it's worth, I am also opposed to the existence of the US and Canada on similar (though not identical) grounds.

what about that is anti-semitic?

I mean, I'm very critical of my country. not so much on this board since it's mostly americans, but certainly in my day-to-day life.

I do BECAUSE it's mostly Americans. I was raised to clean my home before talking about somebody else's dirty ass house. I was also raised to lead by example and be aware of when I'm the wrong messenger for a message.

even the guilty hate being preached to by hypocrites, lol

I also feel that many Americans have Stockholm syndrome when it comes to the American government, tbh

Its not possible to effectively criticize modern US foreign policy/aggression without discussing Israel.
