    Never thought about this.

    They really do fund a whole country that has way higher living standards (unless you’re “an Arab” of course) than their own.

      What’s even worse is that the Israeli economy depends on Palestinian labor. Palestinians have practically none of the rights of Israelis, and are subject to genocide and settler-colonial terror, yet Palestinians do a large portion of underpaid labor propping up the Israeli economy. Palestinians are dehumanized, treated as tools to be used and discarded, and this is perfectly natural to Zionists because the conditions of settler-colonialism reinforce this view and create it. This is why a one-state solution is necessary, and Palestine must be free.

          Bingo! Same with other anti-colonial and anti-imperialist countries. Cuba, the DPRK, Ireland, Algeria, Nicaragua, Yemen, China, and more are some of the most supportive countries in the world for Palestine.
