Serge from Babka on Nostr: Someone in another thread suggested that arms deals to Israel could be made under ...
Someone in another thread suggested that arms deals to Israel could be made under conditions, for example that the arms are only used for defensive missions.
Whether I agree with this idea (I don't) or whether I think Israel would accept such terms (it likely wouldn't), that argument/that line of thinking is not antisemitic or anti-Israel, as it preserves the idea that Israel can and should exist, and has the right to defend itself.
These issues are not binaries, and there are ways to address the conflict that are not hateful.
