According to a report by Israeli paper Yedioth Ahronoth, which cited the Israeli foreign ministry on Sunday, Turkiye blocked Israel from taking part in an annual NATO military exercise focused on resilience, combat readiness and emergency preparedness.

Ankara reportedly did so by using its veto power – as a key member state in the military alliance – to attempt to exclude Tel Aviv, ensuring NATO does not unanimously accept Israeli participation in its exercises.

    Sadly it’s needed here, especially when there’s a new influx of Reddit immigrants, who’d previously been in a corporate hasbara bubble.

      True, but I’ll not tailor myself to fit them. I get that not everyone is going to get me, but I’m not posting ridiculous shit with zero context at all hours for them.

        There are zionists who genuinely think that anti-semitism = Anti-zionism, it’s important to add the /s so people know you aren’t one of those. The intonation of sarcasm can’t be read unfortunately

            Discussions are great. I’m just warning that without a clear mark of sarcasm, that kind of comment will certainly come off as Zionist

                Oh yeah, absolutely. That’s the main reason I find it so important to distinguish the two, because Zionists will cynically defend any criticism of the Apartheid and Genocide of Palestine with the false notion that the criticism is antisemitic. Which comes at the expense of increasing genuine Antisemitism and Islamophobia globally, in order to muddy the water of completely valid criticism and opposition to the incredibly fascist actions of the Israeli State.
