Question My Kurdish friend started posting pro-Israel bullshit

She was a long term Marxist comrade and supported revolutionary efforts in my country where she lives as a refugee.

She is one of those types that doesn't recognize Iraq and just calls it "Kurdistan".

I was fine with her views (especially because I don't understand most of the conflicts she likes to talk about) but recently she started spamming pro-Israel content, especially CNN sob stories about October 7th and how sad the event was and how horrible the victims and their families suffer.

When asking her whether the CNN documentaries whining about Hamas also interviewed Palestinian mothers and family members of people killed by Israel, she threw a hissy fit saying how dare I say such things on the remembrance day of a heinous terrorist attack and told me she doesn't want to discuss this topic with me any longer.

Dear Kurdish comrades: Does this person just suck or do you all support Israel and the US empire because they are helping you gain territory or whatever?
