Rahm Emanuel vexes me by continuing to live.

unwarlikeExtortion ,

British Ambassador to Japan Julia Longbottom explained that her decision was because the city did not invite Israel to attend. Longbottom told reporters that unlike Russia, which invaded Ukraine, and Belarus, which cooperated in the invasion, Israel is exercising its right to self-defense. So, treating Israel in the same manner would be misleading, she said

U.S. Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel will also skip the Nagasaki peace ceremony. According to the U.S. Embassy, Emanuel does not want to politicize the Nagasaki event.

the envoys of Group of Seven nations, except for Japan, and the European Union said that if Israel was excluded from the invited countries, it would be difficult to send high-ranking officials to attend the ceremony.

Totally not politicized. I guess supporting Israel is a better look than opposing nuclear warfare.

opposing nuclear warfare.

Especially bad look considering who dropped that bomb and who remains the sole party to ever used nuclear weapon against humans.

Longbottom, who attended the Hiroshima peace ceremony, told reporters on Aug. 6 that unlike Russia, which invaded Ukraine, and Belarus, which cooperated in the invasion, Israel is exercising its right to self-defense

Words like this is a spit in the face of humanity. Yet it will humbly accept it and continue the day as usual.

was Israel not attacked?

I genuinely have issues trying to discern the propaganda from the facts.

from what I gathered, I believed that Israel just took some land on which other people were living ~70 years ago, displacing these people.
Those peoples didn’t like being displaced and tensions grew, until attacks happened on Israel, to which Israel had mixed responses with violence and suppression, rinse, repeat and escalate for decades.

Now Israel had it with attacks from Palestine, and is going with the only chance it sees at maybe stopping it, which is a very violent war, presumably with the target of breaking the hope of resistance for Palestine (probably with lessons from the US interventions of the last 50-ish years where more civilized approaches failed)

If this (very simplified) view were correct, it seems that they are acting out of self defense, at least if you accept the existence of Israel, because if not they are the aggressors for occupying the space in the first place.

And Hamas is the logical response of decades of Israeli policies. Have you asked yourself why in prosperous countries terrorism is non existent?

Do you think that Israel didn’t create more terrorists than they killed? They completely destroyed Gaza, have a proven track record of killing journalists, humanitarian workers, medical personnel, kids and well documented war crimes and torturing their prisoners of war.

Not to mention that since the 7th of October there was an increased settler violence and pogroms all across West bank and their government approved the biggest land grab from the West bank.

Do you truly believe that the 7th of October attack really justifies all of the above? And all of this is coming from a “so called” democracy. Seriously

It would be bad enough if that were all. But it’s actually even worse. Israel directly aided Hamas because it helped destabilise Palestine’s more moderate leadership.

It is staring you in the face. Additionally Israel continues to illegally occupy Palestine and the Golan Heights and the Knesset voted to oppose a two state solution.

Uh... You're forgetting the Apartheid, brutal military occupation, massacres, ethnic cleansing via settlers and every other injustice Palestinians have faced for the past 70 years.

Now Israel had it with attacks from Palestine

You do realize Israel is the occupier here, right? Setting aside whether Israel has a right to exist (it doesn't; Apartheid ethnostates have no place in the 21st century), they absolutely have no right to keep killing Palestinians and stealing their land, yet they've been doing it for more than 70 years.

and is going with the only chance it sees at maybe stopping it, which is a very violent war,

Even if that was true, collective punishment is a war crime and Israel cleared that bar even before they bombed half of Gaza into oblivion. Even if Israel's goals were justified, their conduct during this "war" is absolutely unacceptable.

at least if you accept the existence of Israel, because if not they are the aggressors for occupying the space in the first place.

At this point it's not a problem of "in the first place". Israel is an occupier because they keep militarily occupying Palestine. Gaza and the West Bank are still considered as militarily occupied by the UN.
