  1. Sen. Bernie Sanders on Gaza: “Genocide is a legal term. What is going on now clearly is absolutely horrific…But the important point is not what you call it — it is horror — the answer is what the hell do we do about it? https://x.com/kaitlancollins/status/1950519649239519718
  2. Ours forever’: Hundreds march from Sderot to Gaza border to demand resettlement The movement’s ideology has support in the government. Israeli officials are reportedly threatening to annex parts of Gaza, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has called the enclave an “inseparable part” of Israel, and other ministers and lawmakers have been urging the leadership to impose military rule over it. https://www.timesofisrael.com/ours-forever-hundreds-march-from-sderot-to-gaza-border-to-demand-resettlement/
  3. Nearly half of Israelis support army killing all Palestinians in Gaza, poll finds An overwhelming number of Israelis, including seculars, back the forced transfer of Palestinians from Gaza and Israel https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/majority-israelis-support-expulsion-palestinians-gaza-poll
  4. When you Occupy a country, have a blockade, plan to Annex, discriminate, have an Apartheid state, take thousands of hostages(administrative detainees who get no trial, regularly 'mow the lawn' killing hundreds of Palestinians in Gaza and illegally harass people in the West bank, burn their houses and steal their land, what the frick do you expect. Do that to me and I'll threaten to kill you. Here's the popular Setttler Queen. Do you deny her crimes? Led by far-right activist Daniella Weiss, hundreds of ultranationalist Israeli settlers marched toward Israel's boundary with Gaza while chanting "Gaza, ours forever" and "take back our land" on Wednesday. https://www.middleeasteye.net/live-blog/live-blog-update/israeli-settlers-march-gaza-chanting-gaza-ours-forever
  5. No, it happened as most of the freedom fighters were born into a concentration camp, not allowed to leave and persecuted by their occupiers. You gotta look at the bigger picture.
  6. And you watch Fox News? Im lost for words 😂
  7. It’s been one for many years. Concentration guards have no right to self defense. Time for all the world to boycott Israel.
  8. Making up vile allegations like raping babies is sick. You surely aren't that ignorant to believe the Israeli propaganda like raping babies and cutting 40 babies heads off. I know Biden lied about it but if you kept up you would know these allegations are false. There are many Jews that are criticizing Israel, take a leaf from their book. Your lot have killed 900 babies who never reached their 1st birthday, more than the total civilians killed on Oct 7. Granted, there were reports of one or two rapes but that is common in war, also very common with Palestinian hostages, you know the thousands, in Israel jails, who haven’t had a trial. Yet your lot continue with this sick narrative that Oct 7th happened ina a vacuum when even the head of the UN said it didnt. You have no defense of your lots actions, accept it and be on the right side of the history, don’t blindly follow and unconditionally condone everything Israel does just because they are the same ethnicity.
  9. Shame shame shame. You do know they tried peaceful negotiations ? Heres what happened in 2018. Casualties (according to UN and NGOs): Over 200 Palestinians killed, many by sniper fire Thousands more injured, some with permanent disabilities
  10. Wow, takes being blinkered to a new level, what a rude man 👨
  11. Many of these “rich” states – especially post-Abraham Accords – are trying to deepen their ties with Israel and the U.S. for tech, weapons, and security cooperation. Public outrage in the Arab world is often not reflected by their governments, many of which are unelected and authoritarian. Qatar has given a lot. Remember, Trump works for the Israel lobby.
  12. Translated as,”I can’t reply to your post”. 😂
  13. Wrong. It’s a common thing for American Jews to claim, which is rather ironic after what you did to Iraq, from the orders of the Israel lobby, who Bush sold out to. Gaza is under blockade and economically strangled, people are just trying to survive. It’s unfair to demand civilians under siege to risk everything unless there’s a viable alternative. Many Palestinians are deeply critical of Hamas, but others see it as resistance against occupation, especially when diplomacy has failed them repeatedly. The blockade, military operations, displacement, and lack of sovereignty wouldn’t disappear overnight. Israel has repeatedly stated that eliminating Hamas is now a long-term goal, which would continue even if hostages were freed.
  14. Were you in the debating society at college? Clinton was acting in the interests of very rich Zionists.
  15. BS, link please. And not from the lying terrorists, Israel.
  16. You obviously know nothing about the deal Clinton offered. There was serious momentum toward a two-state solution in the 1990s. Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat signed the Oslo Accords – a historic step toward peace. Rabin believed in a negotiated two-state solution and was willing to take major risks to achieve it. Tragically, he was assassinated in 1995 by an Israeli extremist who opposed the peace process. While Rabin’s assassin acted alone, many say that right-wing politicians and protest movements created the conditions for the assassination. Notably, Benjamin Netanyahu, then the opposition leader, appeared at rallies where Rabin was portrayed as a traitor and Nazi collaborator. Those events included inflammatory imagery and slogans. Netanyahu failed to condemn the hate-fueled rhetoric and inflamed tensions. After Rabin’s murder, Netanyahu came to power shortly after – and many believe the peace process lost its most credible Israeli advocate. At the 2000 Camp David Summit, President Clinton and Prime Minister Ehud Barak made another attempt at peace.The deal left several core Palestinian demands unresolved, especially on East Jerusalem, borders, and refugees' right of return and full sovereignty. Arafat was also under immense pressure from within the Palestinian movement and across the Arab world – and likely feared the political fallout of accepting terms seen as inadequate.Clinton had already sold out to the Israel lobbyists in the US with his largest donors being:- Haim Saban – Israeli-American media mogul, with a strong pro-Israel stance. George Soros – Hungarian-American financier of Jewish heritage. Steven Spielberg – the Pro-Israeli filmmaker.
  17. Shame shame shame Youve just proven this Jewish Professor correct. How many years were you in the IDF?
  18. That video on X says the men are Pakistani, fake news.
  19. I guess neither of you are native English speakers. It’s lose.
  20. You're right that Arab citizens of Israel (about 21% of the population) have voting rights and can hold office. On paper, that seems democratic and inclusive. But apartheid isn't just about voting rights – it's about systemic separation and domination of one group over another. Different ID Cards & Tracking While all Israeli citizens carry ID cards, Arab citizens' cards include specific ethnic and religious identifiers. This allows Israeli authorities – including the police and IDF – to easily distinguish between Jewish and non-Jewish citizens. It's a built-in mechanism for ethnic profiling – not something you'd expect in a society claiming full equality. Separate Legal Systems In the West Bank, Palestinians live under military law, while Jewish settlers nearby are governed by Israeli civil law. This dual legal system – based explicitly on ethnicity – is a core feature of apartheid as defined under international law. Land and Planning Discrimination Although Arab citizens can legally own land, over 90% of land in Israel is controlled by the Israel Land Authority. In practice, it's extremely difficult for Arabs to obtain building permits. Many live in "unrecognized villages" denied basic infrastructure – while Jewish towns do not face such barriers. Political Suppression Arab political voices face systemic obstacles – including disqualifications of candidates, demonization in public discourse, and constant threats of delegitimization. Criticizing state policies often results in accusations of disloyalty or terrorism – silencing meaningful dissent. The Nation-State Law (2018) This law declared that only Jews have the right to national self-determination in Israel and downgraded Arabic as an official language. That’s not symbolic – it codifies second-class status for non-Jews into Israel’s constitutional structure. So while Arab citizens do have formal rights, those rights are deeply undermined in practice. Major human rights organizations – including B’Tselem, Amnesty International, and Human Rights Watch – have all concluded that Israel operates an apartheid system. This isn’t about slogans – it’s about decades of legal, administrative, and physical control structured along ethnic lines. Having the right to vote doesn’t cancel out an apartheid reality when every other system – housing, land use, policing, and national identity – enforces unequal treatment. You can disagree with these three Human Rights Groups if you want but I would think carefully about what they say, also what a former US President said about it on Democracy Now !! He, IMHO, was the only President not to sell out to the Israel Lobby, who basically tell Trump what to do. people like Miriam Adelson, an Israeli born billionaire who, with her late husband, are the largest political donors in US history! I believe the peanut farmer.
  21. Do you really believe the Israeli propaganda about being the only democracy in the region? How can Israel be called a democracy if it practices apartheid? what about Tunisia and Lebanon, Iraqi Kurdistan has held fair elections. So the idea that Israel is the only democracy is propaganda lies. Can a State Be a Democracy While Practicing Apartheid? Inside Israel proper, Jewish and Arab citizens do have voting rights and legal protections. But in the occupied territories, Palestinians live under military rule, while Jewish settlers live under Israeli civil law, two legal systems in the same land, based on ethnicity. Movement, housing, and political rights are restricted for Palestinians under occupation. This dual system is why groups like Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, and even some former Israeli officials have called it apartheid. The label “only democracy in the region” is used for political effect, especially to frame Israel as aligned with Western values. But democracy is not just about elections, it’s also about equal rights for all. When you factor in the millions of Palestinians living under occupation without the right to vote for the government that controls much of their lives, the claim is ridiculous.
  22. I’ve never heard such blatant brainwashing by Israel propaganda.
  23. what’s wrong with some of you Genocide deniers. Read the following. B’Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights Israel: Israel is committing genocide in the Gaza Strip https://www.btselem.org/press_releases/20250728_our_genocide Israel/OPT: Israeli organizations conclude Israel committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza in another milestone for accountability efforts https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2025/07/israel-opt-israeli-organizations-conclude-israel-committing-genocide-against-palestinians-in-gaza-in-another-milestone-for-accountability-efforts/
