True. I watched that and cringed. Enough that the Israeli govt does is worthy of legitimate criticism; lying about what they do is just as bad.
It's all fun and games until you start promoting antisemitic myths, @NBCSNL. Every Israeli citizen—Jewish and Arab, Muslim, Christian, of any or no faith—is eligible to be vaccinated; 2/3 of Israel's Arab citizens over 60 already have been. Apologize.

I was wrong on this one, making a distinction between Israeli citizens versus people in the West Bank and Gaza that I should not have made. Criticisms of Israel on this one are in accordance with international law and I apologize.

Notice his use of the word “citizen” & realize that it doesn’t apply to all the people living in the Occupied Territories that are not now & don’t have option to be Israeli “citizens.” The IDF Spokesman is the one being disingenuous about “what they (Israeli govt) do.” C’mon, MW

It's not true in Israel proper but in the occupied territories only settlers are getting vaccinated. Not only won't they vaccinate Palestinians in Gaza but they're blocking anyone else from supplying them. Perhaps one day that will make you cringe too Marianne.

Maybe spend more time defending the people being brutalized then the power that is doing the said brutalizing. Thanks.

Anyone confused by Marianne’s take should remember that she doesn’t support Palestinians right to self-determination and liberation.

Conflating criticism of the Israeli government with antisemitism against the Israeli people is not the correct take. When someone from another country criticizes my government's leadership, it didn't mean they hate me as a citizen of that country. This isn't rocket science.
