How can you tell if they’re Israeli?

I really marvel at the audacity of people who dare think they can do stuff like this. That person isn’t a part of your life at all, you don’t know them, and somehow you think you can enter their personal space and start harassing them? Especially when you never know who’s crazy and will just beat the shit out of you?

Yes is insane lol they can’t control that they were born there? Thats just straight up antisemitism. I guarantee people wouldn’t say this about Russians

Great question. Assume that you can’t truly know, but that you are 90% sure they are

Idk I think we should be publicly shaming people who openly support genocide.

This is based off of a real situation that happened. The ppl who harassed a couple out of a restaurant couldn’t 100% guarantee the couple was Israeli, but did know they were Jewish at least

Assuming someone supports Israel just because they’re Jewish is incredibly antisemitic, wtf?

My guy I’m not the one who harassed the couple out. I’m asking the us pol community if they’d do the same. I do not agree with harassing paying customers that aren’t bothering ppl out of places based on ethnicity, and I was curious who does agree

Not all Israelis support their government, just like many of us Americans don’t support ours

If they’re open about the fact they’re Israeli, at the very least they’re fine with the Israeli government representing them. Otherwise they just wouldn’t bring it up.

I’m proud of the fact that I’m American, and I hate our current government

Just because they have a certain nationality automatically means they support genocide? Are you fucking brain dead?

No that’s now how it works. If I’m open about being an American that doesn’t mean I like our government that’s crazy

If they’re bragging about it in public then yeah. Do you think it would have been okay for a German to be bragging about their nationality in 1944? Of course not, because Germany was run by the Nazis and was committing terrible crimes. The same applies to Israel today.

Yeah I agree bragging is weird. If someone just asks where you’re from and you said Israel, or if you just mention a random story from your childhood and say “in Israel we have these little cookies called X that thy sell” or something like that, that’s completely fine imo. I spent 6 months abroad and it would unreasonable for me to never bring up that I’m American. I’m not gonna brag about it but I might’ve been like “ugh I miss this food we had in the US” or “in the US the custom for X is this”
