SYDNEY: Australia on Wednesday (Apr 3) told Israel that the death of an Australian aid worker in Gaza by an Israeli air strike was outrageous, and said Israel would continue to lose support unless it changed its course of action. "I spoke with my counterpart, the foreign minister of Israel, late last night
And how effective Zionist lobbying is in the West
Right. Like, let’s not kid ourselves. This conflict is due to religion, as is the core of the US support for Israel.
Settler colonialism and imperialism weren’t a religion last time I checked
Manifest destiny suggests otherwise.
Exactly this.
Other way around. What drives those two things and is used to control the masses while it happens telling them that it’s their divine right to settle the west?
Manifest Destiny is something you should probably check into if you truly believe what you wrote.
It’s due to Zionism.
Religious apologists downvoting and PMing me how wrong I am haha. I guess they’d rather keep kidding themselves then.
Like, for those downvoting me because you don’t like what I said, doesn’t change the fact that it is correct. I’m not saying that just to be a dick. What’s happening over there is entirely due to religious influences and control warping people’s minds from childhood to think there’s some supernatural forces or divine guidance that gives them the “OK” to genocide another group, no matter the cost in casualties.
That’s coming from a place of zealotry and extremism that is driven by millennia of religion. And the people in the US that continue to support Israel are no better. They’re all calling themselves Zionists. It’s the belief that in order for the end days of their scripture/teachings to come to pass, requires “God’s chosen” (aka the Jewish population of the world), to reclaim their “lost sacred religious lands”, which is Israel and Palestine.
Once the Israelites do that, then a bunch of stuff in the New Testament supposedly comes to pass, specifically Revelations, which is the key signifier for the end times.
It’s why all the crazies are coming out of the woodwork to support Israel along with the “non-crazies”.
The truth is they share a common insanely crazy belief, which is zionism, and it’s pretty fucked up.
The US isn’t even close to primarily being Jewish. Judaism is 2% of the USA.
