    People think that Jews in Israel are a monolith, but they actually come from different places and so have vastly different points of view.

    For example, European Jews tend to favor a two-state solution whereas Arab and Russian Jews tend to disagree.

        Can you please edit your comment to reflect your source on this? For the record, I know the source and it’s just straight up factual with Israel outright confirming it happened, but yeah. Just to help prevent some reports. Thanks <3

              Probably should replace the word sterilized with given contraceptives.

              They’re wildly different things.

                  Fair enough sorry - but it’s weird to bother asking for a source and then not caring that the source doesn’t back up the claim being made?

        Probably should edit your comment from “secretly sterilized” to “allegedly secretly provided contraceptives”.

        Being sterilized and being given contraceptives are wildly different things.

              Yeah, I’m confused. Depo-Provera is a contraceptive that needs to be administered every 3 months to prevent pregnancy. And it doesn’t end a pregnancy, it’s been deemed safe for pregnant women and women who (unlikely but possibly) become pregnant after an injection.

              It also may help prevent some cancers of the reproductive tract.

              Skeptical of the guardians article or the message that people are taking from it.

        I think you are missing the point. Jewish people who live outside of Israel can’t be beholden to policies set by Israel. Its also important to note that Jewish is both a religion and a race.

        Don’t let the conflicts in Israel control your treatment of other humans. If we let hate overcome us we could end up with Holocaust type situations (it doesn’t even need to be Jewish hate)

        Free Palestine

        You’re missing one state solution. That’s what’s essentially going to happen as things go. They’re depopulating gaza with the plan to eventually grant citizenship to the reduced population of Palestinians so they can maintain a jewish majority. West bank alone wouldn’t cause a loss in majority, but Gaza would. They won’t grant right of return. Though that is genocide.
