That’s interesting. I think it’s rich that Israel is a “victim” despite having nuclear arms and one of the most advanced militaries in the world, but there’s somehow still a need to torture villagers-turned-refugees en masse. Let alone the fact that antizionism is not antisemitism.

You can have a nuclear missile in your pocket and still be a victim of a guy with a rock that comes up to you from behind. The idea that Israel can't be a victim because they are stronger militarily is absurd, the whole point of terror and guerilla warfare is to win asymmetrically while being militarily inferior
Palestinian citizens are absolutely victims of this conflict. But there are also real Israelis who have real rockets hit their houses and businesses every couple of years. And it's been this way for decades! These people are absolutely victims. Both can be true.
