It is ironic that the Jewish community wants to discount any comment about genocide (while it is actively happening) , if they declare palestinian genocide a hoax then they did learn a lot from the holocaust. Just not what I expected to be learned. i always assumed the Jewish community would be more open to recognizing attrocities of war.

I don't think that's the right stance. There are many anti Zionist Jews. In fact, it was Jewish voices like Norm Finkelstein and Noam Chomsky who put me on to the truth of things way back in the 90s when no one else was willing to talk about it.

There are many anti Zionist Jews.

There are, but they do not dominant the mainstream Jewish voice on the issue. Not that it's a good thing to lump all Jewish people into one bucket, but this is how the media treats issues with any group

And/or many might be afraid to speak up in order to not be eaten by the Zionists.
