    not really off topic, claims like people should celebrate foreign States can be iffy.

    Polish are allowed to celebrate polish heritage, Thai communities are entitled to their events. Israel does not. not just because it’s a genocidal state. but because it doesn’t has a major diaspora.

      Off topic because the article and the comment was about celebrating a foreign country and not about celebrating a culture or heritage. Current genocidal countries should not be celebrated. None of the country you mentioned are currently colonizing other and actively doing genocide .
