This is an important point by @AnaKasparian. Israel Firsters often point to the WW2 bombing of Dresden to justify what they did in Gaza. But the bombing of Dresden was considered uniquely horrific (even if "justfiied"). But it was small fraction of what Israel dropped on Gaza:

In late 2023, @loffredojeremy recorded interviews with Israelis in NYC who held a rambunctious pro-Israel protest (for some reason, those who typically claim they don't want foreigners protesting on US soil were silent). These Israelis called for genocide. Whenever I posted it in response to those claiming it was Palestinians who were violent and extremist, I was told it's unfair to use these interviews because these Israelis were just fringe, aberrational extremists unrepresentative of Israelis as a whole. All you have to do is look at the new Google Maps images of Gaza to see that they were completely representative of the sick mindset of the Israeli government and the country generally. Israel:🇮🇱

This is one of the many perverse ironies of the Macklemore situation. If Ed Sheeran's opening act had waved an Israeli flag and proclaimed his love of Israel -- and then a cartel of rich venue owners banned him from appearing -- we would have a two-month orgy of people screaming ANTI-SEMITISM, with Mike Johnson holding emergency House hearings featuring Jonathan Greenblatt and Dana Bash and Jake Tapper crying with Van Jones on CNN about how dangerous America has become for Jews.
