Witnesses at the scene told CBS Colorado that the suspect attacked people with Molotov cocktails who were participating in a walk to remember the Israeli hostages who remain in Gaza.
Run For Their Lives, which organized the walk, said, “This is not a protest; it is a peaceful walk to show solidarity with the hostages and their families, and a plea for their release.” The group met at 1 p.m. at Pearl Street and 8th Street to walk the length of the Pearl Street Mall and back with a stop at the courthouse for a video.
It’s not a stretch. You said that protesting for Israeli hostages proves they didn’t care about Palestinians.
Since, in your diseased brain, you can only care about one cause at a time, this means you don’t care about Haitians.
If you aren’t an antisemite, why are you screeching about the Israeli government, when they had no involvement in the protest? It was just American Jews protesting in sympathy for their own.
The organization’s website says it was founded by Israelis. They carry Israeli flags. It is a pro-israel protest.
The reality of the situation is that those hostages do not fucking matter when Israel’s response is to carpet bomb the most densely populated region of the world, starve them, and trap them from ever leaving.
It is incredibly tone deaf to protest for the Israeli hostages.
Tone deaf is asserting that hostages don’t matter because you think someone else deserves attention better.
This is why you people are and will forever remain politically irrelevant. Nobody wants to associate with antisemites like you.
I promise you it is 100% their genocidal actions I take issue with and not their religion.
What’s genocidal about wanting hostages released?
The fact that the government perpetuating the war doesn’t want the hostages released so as to preserve their justification for war.
Where the fuck does the government come into this? These are individual Jews coming together calling for the release of their own.
That’s an extremely weird question, lol.
In what way?
You are not having this conversation in good faith. You’re taking a very closed-minded perspective to someone saying “killing thousands of children is bad” AND “not enough was even done to save the hostages.” I’ve met people like you in real life, and I suspect the pain of admitting that you’re even slightly in the wrong about a country you value must really hurt, but it does not make genocide apologia ok. I’ve accepted my own country sucks, so you can make peace with a place like Israel too.
Also, if “discussion” like this is what this comm tolerates, I sure as hell don’t want to be a part of the conversations here.
I’m not making genocide apologia. I have not said anything regarding Israel.
