      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.

              I am not the person who made the comment. If you have an issue with wording of it, take it up with the commenter. As it stands, it does not violate any community rules.

                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)
