    Gee, I wonder if Nazi Germany or Imperial Japan could have taught us something about the serious trauma of doing murder of helpless people all day.

    you don’t get PTSD for committing war crimes. that’s your conscience telling you that you’re a monster. And sadly, that’s the only consequences they’ll likely face for a genocide. I wish them no support or recovery.

    I have PTSD and it’s hell, I’m a random trigger away to go from reasonably good mental health to self harm and suicide. but IDF don’t get to cry about PTSD, I’m sure the people they murdered are having a worse time.

    I differentiate between Jews & zionists.

    Many won’t, because their ideology is adamant that they’re identical.

    https://www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/2026/02/26/the-reality-in-gaza/

    is evidence that Jews who are NOT zionists/genociders are real.

    Netanyahu is evidence that zionists who reject Daniel, Jeremiah, & Isaiah ( Jewish prophets ) are real.

    I expect that the Jews among Netanyahu’s “Israel” are the ones being suicidal by being forced into participating in enforcing evil,

    & that the sociopaths are NOT the ones suicidal, but instead glorying in it.

    SAME AS HERE.

    Fake-Jews ( zionists ) vs Jews, fake-Christians ( christofascists ) vs honestly-Christian ones, fake-Muslims ( Boko Haram seem to have zero valuing for G-D-given LivingWorth, only for their own regime’s lordhood ), vs real Muslims ( Malala & her dad certainly are loyal to LivingSpirit ).

    Oversimplification “justfies” genociding, right?

    that goes ALL ways.

    the oversimplification being done by the zionists “justifies” their genociding of … everybody else.

    the oversimplification being done by islamists “justifies” their genociding of … everybody else.

    the oversimplification being done by christofascists “justifies” their genociding of … everybody else.

    ( yes, there are fake-Buddhists & fake-Hindus, who also violate ahimsa for national-supremacism )

    That is the Pattern of their values.

    I’ve seen too much stuff like Jews in Netanyahu’s “Israel” saying that they’re terrified of speaking truth in their country, for fear of what the zionists would do to them.

    Exactly as real-Christians will be equally-terrified of speaking truth in the US, shortly, btw…

    Oversimplification GIVES the true-enemy, ideological-reacting, victory over our lives.

    We have to do better than that.

    Christian’s bible, Rev 10:9-10, contains the difference between ideological “thinking” vs HONEST & ACTUAL thinking:

    9 So I went over to the angel and asked him to give me the little scroll; and he said to me, “Take it and eat it. It will turn your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be sweet as honey.” 10 I took the little scroll from the angel’s hand and ate it; and in my mouth it was sweet as honey; but after I had swallowed it, my stomach turned bitter.

    https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation+10%3A9-10&version=CJB

    The key to that is that superficial-“truth” is syrupy-sweet in one’s idea-knowing, or “face”, but ACTUAL experience-induced-understanding, isn’t “sweet”, it is bitter, in one’s belly.

    The fact that no population in the Middle East is homogenous may be inconvenient, but it is true.

    That goes even for people born in Netanyahu’s “Israel” of Jewish parents. It goes also for people born in Palestine of Muslim parents.

    Diversity-of-meaning’s real.

    As a wonderfully-honest yt channel I once saw said, about Africa, in EVERY situation one encounters, Rwanda, Congo, ANYwhere, the more you dig, the more “it’s complicated” becomes the only possible description.

    The Middle East isn’t different from that.

    Sorry, but ideology is highjacking our world, trying to replace seeing-what-actually-is with animal-reacting & no-moral-anxiety-the-ideology-does-our-thinking-for-us, & that’s the true enemy of our species’ survival of this Great Filter century.

    zionism, islamism, christofascism, fundamentalist-anti-theism, etc, they’re all prone to the same prejudice, just with different “other” targets. So are the pseudo-buddhism & pseudo-hinduism variants. So are the political-ideology variants, of left & right.

    Whatever: I expect infinte downvoting for holding to non-simplistic view, & that’s that.

    Objectivity needed loyalty, though.

      Zionists spend a huge amount of time, money, and effort to conflate Zionism & Judaism in people’s minds. Consider their flag, for one: 🇮🇱
