International views of Israel and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are much more negative than positive, according to a Pew Research Center survey of 24 countries conducted this spring.

    This is why Israel plays the antisemitism card.

    “Am I being evil by exterminating an entire ethnic group? No, literally the vast majority of the population of Earth is antisemitic which is why I must exterminate said ethnic group.”

    It’s genius really, the more people there are against what they’re doing, the more justified they think they are in doing it.

    It’s also why countries like Germany, the US, Canada, etc are parroting that narrative. It’s a convenient way to bypass free speech laws to censor the majority opinion while still pretending the West is special because it supposedly has free speech. If there were only a minority that are against Israel in those countries, they wouldn’t care enough to spend nearly as much resources suppressing it as they have.

    What’s the deal with India’s support for Israel? I’m pretty sure Zionists see Indians as inferior humans.

    Is it due to both countries having Muslim enemies? (Palestine/Pakistan)

    Bit of an off topic question but I had this question for some time now.
