Fair enough, but the law binds its subjects as much as it does its judiciary. In other words, if the Israeli government can break the laws when it comes to Palestinians, what prevents it from doing the same to Israeli citizens? How can any citizenry be okay with this?
What you say is totally rational, which is why many of the people supporting these monsters are doing it for irrational reasons. Things like hate, anger, and bigotry seem to be very effective right now!
And thus you get the “and I did not speak up”. Everyone who is not affected at first thinks it won’t happen, when it does start happening to them, it’s too late.
