I'm neither young nor a racial minority, but I fully understand the position of not consenting to genocide. Is this really that hard for people? What is the argument in favor of supporting Israel? I mean, I know the state is doing a capitalism, but what's the argument to an average Joe?
I don't think that's the case. Things are turning shit here at home, and everyone in sight is sucking a corporate dick. There is no way out from under the corporate boot. There is no fast track to demolishing citizens united. The opulent will continue their conquest of the world without a regulation in sight. I'm sure this has many people just as disenfranchised and it directly effects us.
Israel is viewed as a force of western democracy in the middle east. If Israel went away other democracies would lose a local nation wiling to help them fight terror organizations in the region. From a day to day perspective as someone who lives on the other side of the world and is not Jewish it doesn't affect me much. I think supporters of Israel have really failed to clearly covey the reasons they have for supporting their actions, while those opposed have a significantly easier time. The idea that "the government knows best so just go with it" is old and does not resonate with young voters or minorities.
On the other hand, the US is fairly well allied with Jordan, KSA, and states in the gulf.
The problem is that the US has become inseparable from Israel on foreign policy. I think the war on Gaza should never have begun and that its prosecution will become the current high watermark for absolute brutality.
I don’t want any single religious ethnostate running from the river to the sea. I want to have a two state solution. It is impossible with Netanyahu in power - and Netanyahu worked to secure and supply Hamas for exactly that reason. He knows that if the PA or another organization were to come to the table, he wouldn’t be able to push back.
