    Cool. Now I know my life is in danger if I go to Greece because I look very stereotypically Jewish. They didn’t exactly stop to ask the guy what his opinion was on the Gaza genocide.

      Not that this attack was justified, it definitely wasn’t, but I’m honestly curious what his opinion is on Gaza since he was clearly in the IDF as the article says.

          Why I’m curious? Because he was in the IDF, and I have a very bad opinion of people that are part of the occupation forces. I don’t have any sympathy for him, even if I don’t agree with the attack in itself. I won’t lose any sleep over a genocidal soldier getting his ass kicked.

            ”Before I decide how upset to be about this assault against someone because of their nationality, I need to know if they were one of the bad ones or not."

              Yeah. First and foremost, I won’t shed a tear over a genocidal maniac, nor over a nazi, nor over any other kind of horrible person. I think that’s fairly normal human behaviour. Secondly, the article says he was in the IDF, which I clearly commented on (I didn’t comment on his nationality). I can still condemn the attack as baseless. You’re welcome.
