Can someone show me on a map where "the west" starts?
It's the big blob of central capitalism from when colonialism started to now. It's where the genocidal whites live, hence why Israel plays in the European soccer league.
Ah, so even though they're (trying to) occupy the exact same plot of land, Israel is "the west" (and therefore we're obligated to hate it) and Palestine is not (and therefore we're not). That makes sense now!
None of that makes sense. You don't have the writing chops to pull off a sentence with three clauses and three additional parenthetical clauses.
We're obligated to hate Israel and not Palestine because Israel is the settler colonial project currently engaged in genocide. It's very simple and no one has been opaque about it.
