“We don’t hate Jews or want them dead, we just want a free Palestine”
We warned you that your language and actions would have consequences. We warned you that the way you were choosing to advocate for Palestine would cause violence against Jewish people. Still, you said no, we don’t hate Jews, and we are not anti-semitic; we just want Palestine to be free.
Well, we were proven right again, and 2 Israelis were shot and murdered in front of a Jewish Museum in DC. The man who killed them shouted “Free Palestine.” as he was arrested. We have seen this before. History repeats itself as people sit and watch.
All the people who recklessly spoke of “globalizing the intifada,” thinking it would have no consequences, who became part of this movement, not because they cared about Palestine, but because they wanted something to be able to yell about or just wanted to hate, Your recklessness and hatred caused this. This will not free Palestine. The people who actually care to make life better for Palestinians are working together with Israelis and Jewish people all over the world. At the same time, you call for vengeance yet believe violence would somehow not come. Violence that has caused the public murder of two in front of a Jewish Museum just because they were Jewish. An act that will inspire others to attack more Jewish people. But the world will continue to not care. We live in a reality where people love dead Jews but are masquerading it by saying Israeli instead. And even with my anger, I still hope that people, even just one, will realize this and change.
