Also, ask that friend of yours if he thinks that Pissrael should exist or not.
Chances are, they are in favour of Pissrael’s continued existence, which means support for the genocide efforts past, present, and future, no return of homes and land from Pissraeli settler-colonists to the Palestinian families that they were stolen from, and no justice in this regard in general.
Firstly, I will ask again, are you saying that he never supported Pissrael, or that he has been doing so but not ‘blindly’? You seem to be very eager to avoid clarifying that.
He literally had Arabic University Administrators as close personal friends
So what? This reads like the classic ‘I can’t be racist, I have a black friend’ kind of nonsense.
We are bland and peaceful people. We don’t even go to war for our own country because of our religious beliefs
You are fine enjoying the fruits of colonial conquest and exploitation, though.
But I’m a pacifist as is most of my family
So, what you are saying is that you would not be fine standing up to your empire’s colonialism, and that you just want to enjoy the subjugation of poor people and foreigners in peace?
Is there anything good to your ‘pacifism’ other than not joining your genocidal military, which is the bare minimum that should be expected of a decent human being?
We aren’t talking about ‘in your blood’ stuff. Your empire is currently engaging in colonialism. And you and your friend are beneficiaries of such.
I fought pollution in the most polluted river in the country. And I try and limit my impact on the environment besides my car
Individual solutions to systemic problems are generally silly and ineffectual.
To actually fight pollution, you would need to tackle your empire and capitalism in general.
The entire world getting nuked would also destroy capitalism.
Needless to say, you are ignoring the side effects which make relevant ‘options’ undesirable.
