  1. The guardian isn’t reporting how many Palestinians in the West Bank have been killed:

    > More than 3,200 Palestinians have been injured in attacks in the West Bank this year, according to the latest UN humanitarian office report, and the UN documented 71 settler assaults during a single week in October. In one incident this week, a 55-year-old woman was hospitalized after being clubbed by a masked settler while picking olives, an attack captured on video.

    The figure the guardian doesn’t want to share is about 500 in the last 12 months. Over 1,000 since October 2023.

    The guardian also buried the fact that the EU is fully supportive of these atrocities at the end of the article:

    >Yet EU foreign ministers are reportedly backing away from sanctions, despite findings by the bloc’s diplomatic service that there were “indications” Israel was breaching its human rights obligations under the EU-Israel association agreement.

  2. I think if the general argument is that jews don’t equate to Israel then it’s pointless to point out that jews are advocating against Israel. I also think that a lot of the people on this list aren’t so involved with Judaism on the daily basis and are acting as a mouthpeice by being token Jews. It’s the same thing as when individuals from any community differ from the majority of their group and people who are generally prejudiced against that group use them as examples why they’re not prejudice because “well even they know they’re in the wrong, see? They say it too…”
