I like to think that the people who are Humanists and thus are the most intenselly against the way Israel is acting because of how much it goes against their Humanist Principles (you know, “though shall not mass murder people because of their etnicity”), are also the most likelly to not judge people badly just because of their religion, including in this situation people who are Jews and who given their own Principles are against the actions of Israel.
The problem as usual are the racists, the entire range of them, including those who are Jews, those who are anti-semite and those who whilst being non-Jews support Zionist supremacism or are simply Islamophobic.
For me the single most shocking thing in all this is how all the closet racists came out and we’re seing things like Germany rabbidly defending Genocide with no other argument than the race of the aggressors, the very way of thinking as the supposedly “never again” old days.
That said, as others pointed out, the pain of Humanist Jews is nothing compared to what Palestinians are suffering at the hands of ultra-racist Jews and the racists supporting them in the West, so the Humanist Principle of “Minimizing Pain” would dictate that the pain of such Jews is far far behind in the order of priority of things to address than stopping the continued massacre of Palestinians.
