    Two Jews three opinions is a phrase that goes back to before Islam had been conceived. It’s hardly surprising that there are Jews speaking out against themselves. What’s more surprising is the overwhelming support for the state of Israel by the Palestinian Israeli population. I suppose they of all people understand how good they have it in Israel.

      Interesting that you say “jews speaking out against themselves”

      Those Jewish people about are speaking out against israel. The state of israel and Judaism are not the same thing, as much as zionists will try to convince you otherwise. Speaking against israel is not speaking against judaism or Jewish people as a whole.

      And yeah, I wouldn’t be surprised if there are Palestinians living in israel that are loudly declaring support for israel. They don’t want to be hurt or killed, so they say what they think will keep them safe.

      Although I couldn’t find much info about that, do you have any source or more info?

        The safety of Jews is absolutely directly tied to the existence of Israel, the state of Israel is directly linked to Judaism which is why Jews daily prayer starts with a call to Israel. It’s why all Jewish holidays are based on the agricultural cycles of Israel. An anti Zionist Jew is absolutely working against their own interests.

        That you think Arabs in Israel don’t have the ability to speak out against the government demonstrates your ignorance here, they’re in the streets by the thousands protesting weekly.

        Muhammed zoabi is a good follow if you’re interested in Arabs who support Israel while being critical of their government and policies. He is great at breaking down complex concepts although he’s a bit out there at times.
