Just to be clear, you think this, not because we disagree about values, but because we disagree on facts. You think one thing is true, I think another - and therefore, I am proof that Israel is "running down the slippery Nazi road".

I could be wrong about things. I believe I am more informed, and better informed, than most people I interact with online, both in terms of the amount of attention I pay to this topic, and because I'm literally closer to everything that is happening, can talk with IDF soldiers regularly, etc. Nevertheless, me being (in my mind) more informed doesn't mean I can't be wrong.

But neither you, nor anyone else, has ever actually shown me real reasons to think I am wrong. Others in this thread have shown pictures of the IDF detaining hundreds of people, and just assume that it's proof that the IDF is rounding up and shooting people, despite this being a claim that no one is actually making, not even the people who are literally accusing Israel of genocide in court.

So yes, I think I am more correct about the facts. And apparently, disagreeing about factual statements is proof that I am somehow evil?
