I& #39;m a Zionist: exposing myself thread
hello. I& #39;m pepper, I& #39;m Jewish, and I& #39;m a Zionist. zionism, by definition, is Jews& #39; right to self determine in their homeland, Israel. zion, which is in the word zionism, is one of the 7 ancient Hebrew names of Jerusalem. +

why do ppl think it& #39;s an insult? bc in the last 100 yrs, Zionism means supporting jews& #39; right to decolonize the lands of Judah from the Brits and eventually support the Jewish state of Israel established on them. a reality with which many ppl have a hard time living with. +
now, I will not go down the details of the long israeli - palestinian conflict history. that& #39;s why I will put a video down below. it& #39;s 5 minutes long, watch it. it sums up my point of view, as an Israeli, on the conflict+ https://youtu.be/jcL9ezWnSSY ">https://youtu.be/jcL9ezWnS...
on the other hand, I will now quit being silent about what I, and my Jewish army fellows, have had and still have to go through in this fandom. I will also explain why attacking me- even if you think I& #39;m completely wrong- is low, and actually useless. the tea is f*cking hot +
first of all: I& #39;m a citizen. I do not represent my government& #39;s actions. I& #39;m a 22 y/o girl, you attacking me is basically you allowing yourself to violent me just bc of circumstances of a 70 yrs conflict, a conflict that was 50 yrs old when I was born. unreasonable h8 count: #1 +
2. being a zionist doesn& #39;t mean I& #39;m against Palestinians. it simply means i support my right to live in the Jewish state of Israel. I& #39;m not against the palestinians, but against Hamas and the Muslim jihad, terror organizations. h8 count: #2 + https://youtu.be/AReww_XZAGE ">https://youtu.be/AReww_XZA...
3. I& #39;m talking to you rn. you that& #39;s depriving my right to live. I hate to break it to you, you& #39;re not the freedom fighter you think you are, you& #39;re a tiny internet bully who& #39;s using their tiny 2 non existent knowledge on my own situation, to spread h8. and you, stan Twitter+
lastly, I would like to help y& #39;all notice that me, and the state of Israel, are still here. there has been several wars, terror attacks, rockets shootings, and pretty much a lot of mess. but we& #39;re still here. that means a single screenshot from my fav& #39;s vlive+
won& #39;t help the palestinians, and cyber bullying me will unlikely either. maybe try new methods, fellas. and leave b7s out of it this time +
I will end with a quote from my favorite fictional human being:
"if nobody hates you, you& #39;re doing something wrong"
(Dr. Gregory House) +
