I have no idea what it would take for Israel to lose that association of anti-israel = anti-jewish that they’ve got protecting their every action.

I mean, I know what it took for me. It's a shame so many in Gaza had to die for it, but I'll never look at them the same. Changing all of Germany/Europe may take longer, but surely what's happening is just as plain to anyone with eyes over there as it is over here in the land of the Mango Mussolini.

Part of that problem is the say 5% of people for whom anti-Israel does mean anti-jewish, and the other people who would choose to respond to Israeli genocide with a genocide of their own. It gives the Israeli government and its supporters something to point to as justification, and people who don't pay much attention to the situation just accept that at face value.

Maybe Germany can atone for one holocaust by working to prevent another one.
