The Israel-ISIS alliance has to be one of the most confusing ones in geopolitics

April 2017, ISIS apologized to Israel for mistakenly attacking their troops

The reason is that ISIS fears war with Israel. ISIS supported 10/7 and called for violence against Jews in the aftermath.

Get out of here with these pesky facts! /s

I came here because I wanted a place to freely discuss the invasion of Gaza without dealing with hordes of genocide apologists, but this place has become a wholesale brain-worm factory.

To be clear, I don’t endorse all that the IDF is doing. They’ve killed 30,000 Palestinians, most of them innocent women and children.

That being said, statements such as:

“Most Israelis have dual citizenship” (the real number is ~10%)

“Israel and ISIS are allies”

“October 7th was an inside job/false flag/only killed soldiers”

Are simply false. There are plenty of ways to criticise Israel without descending into such falsehoods. To descend into such falsehoods is to implicitly concede that there aren’t.
