You are so wrong. You are immoral as well. It's right and proper for people to object to the genocide the State of Israel is conducting. They've slaughtered over 40,000 people, the vast majority of them noncombatants, a substantial percentage of them being children.

Besides agonizing deaths caused by guns, bombs, and fire, civilians and children are dying of starvation because of the State of Israel's depraved war crimes.

No decent human being could do anything but protest that as vigorously as possible. Because it's evil. Unspeakable evil.

Of course we're aware that many or most Palestinians are homophobic bigots. And so?

That does not in any way make the monstrous behavior of the State of Israel acceptable or defensible. Genocide. slaughter, and starvation are great moral evils no matter who they are targeted at.

I for one, will never be made the patsy of genocidal animals like Benjamin Netanyahu and his vile allies.

When my Jewish husband was still alive in New York City, our Jewish friends almost universally called out Israel's mistreatment of the Palestinians, the constant illegal settlements in the West Bank that quite properly inspired Palestinian rage, etc.

I'm with them. I'm with anyone who opposes slaughter and starvation.
