Correct. Jeff Bezos is a secret Jew, according to this Jewish website:

Cool. You must hate him because he is "jewish".

Guess another illustration of how the Jews are superior to folks who screech about them on websites

I don't care who is Jewish or not Jewish.

But maybe we need to stop attaching "superiority" to the guy with the biggest bank account. Because people can be doing shady stuff with their power and wealth.

Have you lived in a Muslim country. Until you do you will never understand the difference in the 2 types of Islam. They literally hate each other hence Iraq Iran war and a lot of the terrorist actions in Pakistan.

Pakistan will never use the nuclear option because India has the same button. They have come close. The challenge is that there is a lack of trust.

And there are good reasons why, after all these years, and despite needing the cash, Islamabad has resisted offers from Riyadh for a few nukes.

Bezos' maternal grandmother is said to have been Jewish. That would make him Jewish under Jewish religious law and entitle him to citizenship in Israel under Israeli law. However, Bezos doesn't claim Jewish identity or practice any form of Judaism. There's no evidence Bezos underwent a bar mitzah ceremony

Likewise, there's no evidence Bezos' mother practiced Judaism as a child or adult. She was instead loosely connected to Protestant Christianity. Neither his biological mother or father or his stepfather were actively religious.

Basically, he could be considered Jewish by ancestry but not by religious practice or lifestyle.

Yes, it's striking how close some of their comments get to parts of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and even Mein Kampf. The cornerstone of modern antisemitism is to portray Jews as a collective with an agenda.

Israel does appear to have an agenda.

Things they are doing not appear to be random.

There does appear to be Biblical Prophecy about the Messiah returning when the land stretches from the Nile to the Euphrates.

Then again, all countries have "agendas", but maybe not as dramatic as Israel.

Yes.

But seems it would be easier to do if you're rich since your basic needs are met.

So money made you mean
That's not how it's supposed to be

Right or left it's all the same conspiracy

Are you claiming the modern state of Israel and its Jewish citizens have a collective agenda to restore Greater Israel to hasten the coming of the Messiah?

It's important to know the words and thoughts of your enemies. You can't refute antisemitism if you don't understand what antisemites are claiming.

Yeah, it seems that way.

The average person is being "duped". I feel sorry for them.

No such thing as "the coming of the Messiah".

I don't think the end of Israel is inevitable - there is a significant amount of what might be called wishful thinking on this thread!

I think that Israel needs to change course, dramatically. I think they will have to make some, for them, unpalateable decisions regarding the West Bank settlements and Gaza. They can, they did so before when they withdrew from Gaza.

They will need to guarantee their own security by making sure that they are a tough nut to crack, again they have done that before.

It all rather hinges on those October General Elections.

Well indeed, I am English, and we used to have some very extensive and pleasant lands in Aquataine and other parts of France. All we have now are The Channel Islands, a few thousand drunks clinging to some rocks at the entrance to the English Channel! Perhaps we should get "Greater England" back?

Well, this situation seems to getting a bit complex.

Trump seems to be having differences of opinion (a falling out?) with Israel now.

So will be interesting to see how this unfolds.

Well, I just posted this in the other thread.

But if the US pulls out of the Middle East, it will likely break ties with Israel.

Then can Israel continue to defend itself without the US?

Or maybe the Arab countries will agree to get along with Israel?

Who knows?

Israel has lost all their moral authority, the extremists have total control over the government, a coalition cannot be formed without them, and Netanyahu's a raging, genocidal, super freak serial killer and a corrupt thief. Just like Trump. They are two peas in a pod.

In my opinion Israel will continue to diminish in importance, they are consistently meddling in the affairs of their neighbors, that will come back to haunt them in untold ways, and they very well may seize to exist as a state within it within a decade or two, especially if the US withdraws their support.

And the majority of the world would celebrate that.

Bush entered his second term, in January 2005, convinced that his mission was to spread democracy around the world. He assumed that democracy was the natural state of humanity: Once a dictator was toppled and the people could vote for leaders in elections, freedom and liberty would bloom forth. Around this time, Israel was withdrawing from the Gaza Strip—not just pulling out troops, but evicting some 8,000 Jewish settlers (most of whom were paid to resettle in the West Bank). Suddenly there was a vacuum of local authority. Bush thought democracy would fill a vacuum, so he urged the Palestinian Authority to hold parliamentary elections. One problem, though: Radical parties—notably Hamas and Islamic Jihad, which had boycotted the 2005 presidential election—decided to compete in the 2006 parliamentary contests.

Sharansky wrote an open letter to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon denouncing the disengagement as a “tragic mistake” and arguing that “any concessions in the peace process must be linked to democratic reforms within Palestinian society.” Sharon disagreed (he just wanted to be done with Gaza), and so did Bush, who’d been so persuaded by the first part of Sharansky’s democratic sermon that he ignored this crucial second part. But the election that put Hamas in power was not inevitable; it was premature. Israel and the leaders of the neighboring Sunni Arab nations, who inveighed lavish rhetorical support for the Palestinians but did very little to back it up, could have done more to help build the elements of a civil society and negotiate a peace. But ultimately, they didn’t want to. Elections only tightened the bonds of conflict and lent it a veneer of legitimacy. Hamas’ murderous assault on Oct. 7, the subsequent escalation of violence, and the possibility of a widening war—these are the latest and most bitter fruits of the elections’ legacy.

Hamas came to power in Gaza before Netanyahu via dodgy elections. You may want to look a Bush's role in this.

So now I stumbled on a channel by an Israeli guy.

He claims some western media outlets are anti-semitic.

I will give some of his videos a watch to see if there are valid arguments on his side.

Although he did have a video "Bibi must go". So not sure exactly where he stands on all issues ... but it might be good to get a non mainstream media perspective.

Well, it seems in previous conflicts (1920s) Arabs slaughtered Jewish women and children and stole land from the Jews.

I will refrain from taking sides in this Middle East crisis and try to research it more.

The End of Israel?

It needs to become one state with equal representation for all ethnicities and religions instead of the ethnocentric suprematist apartheid state that it currently is now. Will this be the catalyst for it to happen? Maybe.

What you described is by definition the end of Israel. DUH,

Just watched this.

He claims 100s of thousands of Jews were scattered all over the Arab world and expelled before settling in Israel ...

Complex history ...

Just watched a couple more of this guy's videos.

Are we being fed propaganda / fake news?
He claims there is no starvation in Gaza.

He claims Gazans are using photos of children with genetic diseases to accuse Israel of starvation.

More proof that there is no genocide / famine in Gaza?

He is showing a bunch of normal thriving restaurants in Gaza.

Nothing, as long as you got there by helping others and not running them down, evicting, depleting, over developing, using, manipulating, trafficking , drug dealing, or killing.

Obviously, add using those allegations against some to take from all and give to you (not you qua you, rhetorical)
