yttrx: i’m a little confused… are you implying that i’m supporting one side over the other, because my view of this is that everyone’s being stupid.
i admit i’m not super-informed about what’s going on there, but according to my intro to judaism class, most Israelis aren’t thrilled with the guys in power. it’s pretty fucked up how much support the US gives to that government.
it’s so frustrating because what they’re arguing about is crap that happened 2000+ years ago that no one actually remembers. there has to be a solution, but fuck if i know what it is. i know the solution isn’t for people to stop talking about it and keep their mouths shut because it “doesn’t affect them” because nothing good ever comes out of silence.

My turn! I think this tatoo is well done, but quite ugly, coz I’m not really into the rippin’ stuff thing
As for my opinion on the conflict, I’m clearly pro-Palestinian, and I hate the Hamas, I love Jews, and I hate Israel
there, that should clear things up

I don’t like the tattoo, artistically, but I do admire the owner for making that statement at a time when Jews are hated more than ever.

Everyone stop saying “jews” and start saying “the Israeli government”, please.
I’m sure a lot of you are US citizens who have been abroad in the last eight years, and I’m shocked that you’d speak that way, after being ” ‘murikuns”
It’s a gorgeous tattoo, by the way. nice clean bevel in there.
