> why are you so obsessed with the State of Israel?

Because my government has suffered from Israeli interference, and because my government is supporting the apartheid state of Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people - providing weapons, financial aid, political aid and manufacturing consent for genocide.

Because Israel is carrying out a modern day holocaust, all while constantly lying and fabricating evidence. Because I've seen/heard/read with my own eyes and ears the insane horrors the IDF is inflicting on the Palestinian people - just such incredible, unfathomable evil. I can never unsee what I've seen.

Because Zionists and their Hasbara lackeys spread hatred, racism and Islamophobia, and have smeared opponents with false claims of antisemitism.

> do you seriously believe there are Hasbara in HN?

Yes, there are all over all forms of social media [0] [1]. It would be stretching credulity to believe they weren't active here.

> most people in HN are anti-Israel

Haha, laughably false! This is the same kind of tired deflection that Hasbara use all the time.
