i hate how Zionism has become a bad word, like it's some world domination conspiracy theory. as a Zionist myself, it's not at all likely that IA was attacked to take down Zionist-related material as these material are neither embarrassing nor damaging to Israel. on the contrary, I would like for them to stay up and be archived for all eternity.

what is more likely is that these pro-Palestinian hacktivists are once more engaging in misplaced activism, targeting those they perceive as tied to Israel, regardless of whether those targets have any direct connection. just see the boycott movements... they're boycotting Gal Gadot, McDonalds, and Starbucks

Yes, but they should be.

i'm keeping an open mind. if you can cite them here, that'd be helpful.
I don't think anything will ever be embarrassing to the Genocidal regime. And no damage will be done either, as long as its creators-protectors goes out of their way to protect it.
>i hate how Zionism has become a bad word

What do you consider worse? The Genocide of the people of Gaza and the occupation? Or that the Zionism is now a bad word?

what i consider the worse is October 7 when Israel was attacked by the terrorists Hamas. if you can condemn Hamas, then we can have a conversation
Can you condemn the atrocities of October 6th?
