Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has claimed that a heroic Jewish bystander saved Jewish lives during the Bondi Beach massacre by tackling one of the gunmen. In fact, the man who made the heroic intervention is a Muslim of Levantine descent who was shot twice in the process.
Ahmed El Ahmed, from Idlib in Syria according to a relative, went up unarmed against one of the attackers, wrested his gun away and turned it on the terrorist, forcing him to flee, as footage shown by Al Jazeera demonstrates…
What’s the difference
Well you see, zionists are like cheerleaders. Would it be fair to blame the cheerleader for what the football players are doing? /s

My favourite part of doing this exercise is being jewish and having some rando using bob marley songs to tell me “zionist” is an ethnic slur
If you tried to make this shit up it would be bad writing
no, because hes talking about an ideal in Rastafarian and not advocating for the genocide of a people. two very different situations and very different usages of the term zion.
its almost like words have different meanings in different contexts and its important to actually understand the contextual usage before we spout nonsense.
edit: unfortunately zionists w/ respect to isreal are inherently genocidal. its a per-requisite for isreal to exist. isreal was founded on a genocide and it’ll continue to perpetuate genocide for as long as is necessary to complete the job.
so maybe don’t use religious term to refer to the actions of a regime?
no form of zionism advocates for the genocide of a people…. many zionists do, but that’s not zionism
it’s like calling all muslims terrorists, and then any time there’s a muslim terrorist saying “those fucking muslims! i hate muslims!”
the genocide is the problem, not zionism in and of itself
jews dont own the term zion. isreal zionism absolutely is genocidal at its very core. isreal was founded via a genocide and it continues perpetuating it to this day. you cannot be a isreal zionist and not be a genocidal supporter. its literally baked into the roots of isreali zionism movement from day 1.
isreal is not the whole of jewish culture. its not even a truly important aspect of the culture. jews existed before, exist outside of, and will likely continue well after it eventually collapses in on itself due to cut off from all outside support.
The belief that that land is ours by right, promised to us by an angry man in the sky - aka zionism - is ideological fuel for the genocide we’ve been inflicting on the palestinian people.
If genocide is the problem, then zionism is a big part of the problem.
