Mexico Has Fully Recognized the State of Palestine

In fealty to US foreign policy, Mexico has long refused to recognize Palestinian statehood. Last week, that finally changed, with AMLO’s government officially acknowledging Palestinian statehood and establishing a full embassy in Mexico City.

On June 2, the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates announced that, as of the first of the month, it had reclassified its diplomatic mission in Mexico from special delegation to embassy. The ministry “expresses its firm conviction that this measure will contribute significantly to the . . . strengthening of relations between Mexico and the State of Palestine, on the basis of respect and mutual recognition, in benefit of our two peoples as well as international security and development,” it affirmed in a statement.

it's sad to already see so much anti-Semitism here. I hoped that part would stay on reddit....

Israel ≠ Judaism

I am allowed to hate a militaristic ethnostate oppressing people based on their religion and ethnicity while still liking the Religion they one-sidedly claim to represent.

This may be a bit far stretched, but:
In my Opinion, you further antisemitism.
By directly linking Israel and Judaism to each other, you make Judaism and Jews everywhere, a religion and its followers, responsible for the Actions of Israel, a Political Entity.

I really can't stress this enough: Israel ≠ Judaism.

This is exactly the Narrative that anti-Semites want to push. Taking the wrongdoings of a extremist religious state as an example why the whole religion is rotten

And lastly i want to make a thought Experiment with you:

If you were a Jew, would you leave your entire Live, everything you built, all the friends you have, behind you, just to go to some middle-eastern county, just because it is a religious state of your religion?
I certainly would not. And I'm sure most other people would not. The only People that would are religious fanatics.

And as such, it is unfair to all the normal Jews to make them responsible for what Israel, a Country where the religious fanatics and extremists go, does with its neighbours.

So i will ask you one last time: please don't link Judaism and Jews with what Israel does.
They are two completely separate entities.
I also wouldn't like to be made responsible for all the wrongdoings of the Pope.

Yeah I feel the same way. I feel the need to explain so much but really just can't be bothered

Lol supporting the poor ethnic group getting borderline exterminated by a western aligned and supported military fascist theocracy. Yeah. Super rasist towards the jews.

What a joke you and any other Isreal supporting nazis are

Yeah nazis. Fooking nazis through and through
