I don't. That's why I asked. It wasn't a sarcastic question.

"Israel deserves to live as a free and safe nation. Our neighbors deserve the same"


I really don't get what you don't understand in this statement, it is a pretty straightforward sentence

Yeah I understood. It's your statement which confused me as it was the exact opposite of what she was saying so I was wondering if there is some hidden meaning behind her tweet.

Now I see that you've edited your post so nevermind.

Naming your country Israel or calling yourself jew doesnt make you an Israeli Jew or Bani Israel.

“My heart breaks. My country is at war,” Gadot posted in a statement on Twitter on Wednesday. “I worry for my family, my friends. I worry for my people. This is a vicious cycle that has been going on for far too long. Israel deserves to live as a free and safe nation. Our neighbors deserve the same. I pray for the victims and their families, I pray for this unimaginable hostility to end, I pray for our leaders to find the solution so we could live side by side in peace. I pray for better days.”


What is so wrong in her post?

She was an IDF soldier and was very vocal about supporting them as recent as 2014 so people don’t really want to hear from her . This would be like if some Pakistani soldier who killed Indians in the past saying they want peace without apologizing for their role in their it .

But isn't the battle between Isreal and Palestine, two sided? Why are we making it like, it is only Isreal who is committing atrocities, while Palestine is the sufferer, when they have also launched attacks after attacks since ages.

Why should she apologize for serving her country's army?


Also this seems more like case of Kashmiri militants vs Indian soldiers, rather than India vs Pakistan.


Also this doesn't mean, I am supporting the death of innocent citizens, I just don't see how this conflict is one nation invading another, when it is simply a war between two groups, Isreali defense and Palestinian militants.

How is it two-sided when one side has all the advanced technology, trained military and unilateral backing from Western powers? Israel gets billons of USD to support their military every year and while Hamas rockets get shot down by the Iron dome . Israeli missiles level entire buildings. Kids who have absolutely nothing to do with the conflict are getting killed . Meanwhile Israeli extremists are even breaking into law abiding Arab Israeli people’s house and vandalising their businesses too . Palestinians who are citizens of other countries aren’t allowed to return to their homes and need special permission to visit it while any Jew can visit Israel even if they have never been in Israel .

Are Kashmiri people not allowed to travel to other parts of India ? Are they not allowed to marry other Indian citizens? Do Kashmiris have access to water, electricity and other necessities? ( I know the answer is no ).Kashmir and Palestine situation isn’t the same . Not even close .

UK gifted Palestine to European Jews after WWII without caring about the humans already living there ( Jews , Christians and Muslims lived there peacefully till then ). Israelis are the colonisers.

Gadot’s statement for peace immediately became a hotly debated topic on Twitter, where some called out her use of the word “neighbors” instead of referencing Palestine by name.
