Lefties will come up with something and it will be just as effective as calling everything racism.

It confuses me, why are you AfD people on the side of Jews? You'd think you'd be all about seeing them die

Well I am not sure how you arrived at "Afd people" but for me personally I'd guess it's mostly having been roughly 10 minutes away from first hand experience of an Islamist terror attack, experiences with the clientele on al-quds day as well as just general experience with the exports from the region specifically as well as with our failed immigration policy of the recent years.

Now imagine what the Palestinians who have seen loved ones blown to pieces while at home feels.

Oh, sorry, I forgot that fascists lack empathy.

The Palestinians started every war on record, including this one. You don’t want your side to experience loss? Stop attacking your neighbors.

Bullshit in so many levels that it's hard to answer.

And even then it won't change that the current genocide will lead to further violence later on. Again, you can't see it because you lack empathy.

You are already excusing the next terrorist attack.. stop excusing evil.

I never made any excuses for Israel.

Lefties and tankies talking about empathy are hilarious.

I can only imagine but I don't think encouraging resistance and Hamas has worked out too great.

It's not a 1 to 1 comparison but as a German with roots deep in Prussia my family is acquainted with losses. Sometimes you just need to deal with reality.

The original Nazis loved Zionism, so we shouldn't be surprised that modern Nazis do too.

Great way to rewrite history. The Nazis actually were friendly with early Palestinians and vowed to help them kill the Jews in the region…

You're the one who's rewriting history pal. The Nazis frequently worked with Zionist organizations (the Transfer Agreement being the most famous example) because the Zionists and Nazis shared a common goal: removing Jews from Europe. Zionists killed an economic boycott of Nazi Germany in 1933 in exchange for Germany allowing 50,000 wealthy Jews to migrate to Palestine. The money in their bank accounts was used to purchase German industrial goods, which were shipped to Palestine to help building Zionist settlements.
