You're viewing part of a thread.
But even if they do, they still remain in poverty and are mistreated. It's a symptom of what Israel is... When you drop the rights of some people, you don't stop, you keep dropping the rights of more people.
Here's a good report on it: https://youtu.be/KMIIxCR2utQ?feature=shared
The video answers your first question. I would recommend watching it.
Have you done that? It only interviews Israelis and you can hear it from the mouths of holocaust survivors themselves.
I'm not talking about rising living costs. I'm talking about holocaust survivors picking leftover fruit from the ground after the grocery stalls close down.

I’m so familiar with this because I’m Israeli and my grandparents were holocaust survivors. Part of the reason I’ve volunteered in the past to help survivors like the ones in the video.
That's lovely! Good on you... still baffles me that you are refusing to see the issue here.
but those kids are a minority and if I knew where this was I could guess which group they’re from.
At the beginning it says they saw 13 holocaust survivor go through rubbish fruit and vegetables to be able to eat. You can say "rising living costs" all you want. If Israel respected holocaust survivors, rising living cost should never play a role, especially given all the funding they get for just that.
The issue seems to be widespread, not just a "couple few" here and there...
I don't meant to be disrespectful but your answer sounds like that of a politician trying to wiggle out of reality. The reality is that holocaust survivors are mistreated, maybe in an Israel that doesn't care about them or anyone anymore.

Nowhere did I say there are just a “couple few”.

I think you tried to downplay their numbers... another indication of this being a "politician's answer": make the issue look smaller than it is, make it look like a "normal"/"economic"/etc issue (that holocaust survivors beg on the street and eat bad food), blame the current person in power.
Edit: I want to say, excuse my skepticism when it comes to a country that abuses not only Palestinians but also Jewish people, like holocaust survivors or all that jazz in the Yemenite Children Affair. It's enticing to think that Bibi is behind all this, but to me, it looks more like there is something systemically wrong about Israel and Israeli society in its current format.

If I were in Israel today, I would easily be injured or killed in the street by police or the IDF or angry settlers. My apologies for not having so much faith in them.

Because I'm Palestinian. Not sure why you ask, it should be rather clear. What other ethnicity is getting butchered in the West Bank day by day??
I don't want to be stripped searched. I don't want to die by a checkpoint. I don't want to be shot in the head by Israeli police or the IDF. I don't want to visit someone in the West Bank then have the whole house demolished on my head. I do not want to die, thank you very much, in a country where I'm less than human.
I mean don't get me wrong, I'm glad you "ask", even though it feels like you asking is just to deny or downplay this too. Sadly I'm not exaggerating.
Unbelievable that you’re being talked down to and told you don’t know what you’re talking about when you’re literally an Israeli with family that survived the holocaust. It’s so upsetting seeing people call you a Nazi for living in Israel when you have family that suffered because of them. I don’t see people on this site circlejerking about how awful Palestinians are when Hamas does something bad. So why do I constantly see people circlejerking about how awful Israelis are when their government does something bad? I’m sorry you have to deal with this trash. It’s gross.
The selective outrage is very telling. We live in an era of unreality.
It's because of their denial and downplaying of what's being said, nothing to do with who they are or where they are from...
"Those are just a minority!"
"Holocaust survivors are NOT mistreated!"
"Everyone would be outraged if someone called the 'soap'"
Well, guess what, buddy, these things are happening whether you are watching or not...
If anything, it makes me sad that people so close and involved with holocaust survivors and the genocidal state of Israel wouldn't have a better, clearer view on all of this.
