      Despite that it’s the only country in the middle east where you’ll not be tortured and murdered for being gay so umm there’s clearly something to like here, no?

        Israel has tortured and murdered more gay people than ever other country in the middle east put together.

          Or you know more than one thing can be bad right?

          The way people wash islam’s intolerance is honestly reaching satire levels.

            You realise that Islam is not a monolith but one of the worlds largest religions? That there are LGBTQ+ muslims? Muslim allies? Honestly this idea that there is a “one true Islam” is as ridiculous for Islam as it is for any other religion.

      i didn’t read it like that… i read it in the same way that you might read that you like many american people, but their government are frequently massive twats… the country is not the people, and in both cases there was (is) genocide involved

        Israel, the country, has apartheid enshrined in its constitution. And there never was a genocide of zionists. Indeed the zionists used the holocaust and other european antisemitic persecutions to their advantage
