| The context of "resistance" is the October 7 attack. Some activists push the idea that Islamist terrorism can be defined as "resistance" and therefore vindicated from the moral and criminal dilemma of terrorism. Most rational people will define October 7 as an extreme terrorist attack on a massive scale, because that's what it was. Allahua Akkbar is commonly yelled by Islamist terrorists before, during and after their brutality. A fact easily verifiable from countless videos of terrorist attacks, the horrors of which are a click away if you bother looking. In the context of October 7, non-Muslim Australian children skipping school and holding signs given to them by Socialist Alliance activist groups, is unprecedented and wrong. > "It's very clear that you are afraid..." Instead of addressing my points, you've taken the ad hominem road. My objection to school children chanting Islamist war cries in the streets, has nothing to do with fear and everything to do with objecting to the indoctrination of children by activist groups with loaded religious and political sentiments. Hopefully I've been very clear. |
Framing this as a conflict that started on Oct 7th is, again, biased. Oct 7th was a response to 70 years of war crimes committed by Israel on the Palestinian people on a near daily basis.
A conflict only possible because the US and UK decided to "give" the Jewish people a land that they (the US/UK) did not rightfully own.

Your anecdotal experience aside, you very clearly spelled out a racist reaction. Like crossing the road when you see a black person.
You know what else is a click away? The knowledge that the Muslim god *is* the Christian god *is* the Jewish god. They're all Abrahamic religions they believe in the same god. Different prophets, different practices, same god.
So unless you're equally terrified when an American says "Bless you" when you sneeze, what you're describing is a racist reaction.
