I don’t see how a government’s homophobia makes bombing civilians any more acceptable. Those are two separate issues. You can acknowledge that their government holds harmful views while also recognizing that targeting civilians is still wrong. Human rights don’t disappear because of who’s in charge, innocent people are still innocent. And honestly, comparing which side is “more homophobic” doesn’t add anything to the discussion, it’s just not relevant to what’s happening right now.

You’re really to draw an equivalence between the two but you’re evoking the big difference between them in your question itself. Israel *has* a government. It has one government that operates throughout its whole territory. Its government is real, and actually functions; its people are not an occupied people. There is no real, functioning Palestinian state because there is no sovereignty for the Palestinian people. An occupied people has no state but that of its occupiers.

I don’t care if they don’t like gays that’s their culture but they don’t deserve to get their limbs blown off for that or for anything

lol I mean I think it’s fair. I feel like you shouldn’t just say one or the other is homophobic without proving it

We need to end the genocide and stop meddling in the Middle East. Then If you really are genuinely worried about gay people in conservative Muslim societies why don’t you give some money to a charity that will bring them to the west where they will be accepted

When you’re asked a multi-choice question, you can choose one of the choices or you can object to the question. I’m objecting to the question, that’s my answer.

already answered your question and even quoted the part that explained it. If you still can’t follow that, it’s really not about me, it’s about your reading comprehension. You might want to slow down and actually read before jumping to respond next time.
