What happened to The Militant?
I decided to check out The Militant, a socialist news site, and it looks to be supporting Israel. I could be wrong and I hope I am, but wtf?
If it’s based in New York City, should not be surprised it’s run by a lot of Jewish people.
Sadly, many Jews blindly support Israel out of tribal loyalty. Like genocide is OK with them so long as it’s Jews doing the ethnic cleansing.
the vast majority of American support for Israel comes from the Christian Evangelical right, not from Jewish americans. I've never met a single Jewish person who actually supported isreal that was aware there was a genocide taking place. most of them have just been grossly misinformed about who lived there
Why would a socialist site even want to support either side in the conflict? Both are religiofascist ethnostates.
[email protected]'s rules specify not to engage in political discussions.
There are Lemmy communities dedicated to politics if that's what you're after.
There are two wrong sides here... so it can be difficult to predict what anyone will lean further away from. Beware of assuming that means they are leaning toward the other side though.
There are more than two sides.
Personally I am on the side of the innocent civilians.
What's wrong with that?
Supporting all out genocide is not what you would expect from a paper like that one.
If that's what was happening, it would be a problem, yes.
here, you can argue with Albert Einstein about it. https://archive.org/details/AlbertEinsteinLetterToTheNewYorkTimes.December41948
