Meiner Meinung nach, Mitleid spielt gar keine Rolle. Israels Regierung führt ethnischen Massenmord an der palästinensischen Bevölkerung an. Unbedingt ist Hamas eine Terrorgruppe, die ihr eigenes Volk ausbeutet, aber das ist gar keinen Grund warum Palästinensern ausgehungert und zerbombt sein sollten

Wir tragen Verantwortung, insbesondere Deutschland, aber wir alle müssen gegen Völkermord, Massenmord und ethnische Gewalt kämpfen. Judentum und Israel sind nicht dasselbe, und wir brauchen eine Weltpolitik, die nuancierte und klug genug ist, um diesen Unterschied anzuerkennen.

Danke für so einen Artikel - ich finde es besonders wichtig, die Menschlichkeit alle Menschen anzuerkennen. Über 80% meiner Familie wurden in der Shoah getötet, und dies dient als wichtige Grundlage meines festen Standpunkt gegen alle Arten Entmenschlichung. Gaza erlebt ethnische Massenmord.
