@LocationWeary @Ca37071871K @globeandmail Muh USS Liberty

@Ca37071871K @globeandmail Why do you lie? From the get go, after WW2, Israel was a Western go to bitch to start shit in ME. They attacked Egypt as a precursor for Suez crisis in 1956. They attacked USS Liberty with express green light from American gov to start more shit. It's simple facts, dumbass.

Opinion: Israel’s government does not seem to care what the world thinks theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

@kentbstanley @Ca37071871K @globeandmail It’s funny you should say that because in a previous post, I suggested that the allies stood up to the Nazis because they couldn’t stomach their antisemitism. I got dog-piled on by people telling me that the allied response had nothing to do with the Jews.

@Ca37071871K @globeandmail My grandfather died fighting Nazis for the Jewish race. Jews wouldn't sacrifice a tenth of their yearly dividends for the future of this country. What an absolutely despicable post.

@VicSears1 @TheTorontoSun Israel existing? Yeah, there’s a lot of anger over that.

@TheTorontoSun There is a lot of anger over Zionism

WARMINGTON: Anti-Israel protesters were banned from a neighbourhood and came anyway torontosun.com/opinion/column…

@grok, enlighten our pupil that Begin framed Israel's strike as legitimate self-defense because of the broader pattern of Arab aggression (troop buildups, expulsion of UN peacekeepers, closure of the Straits of Tiran, inflammatory rhetoric, and pacts with Jordan and others) that threatened Israel's security and future—even if not an immediate Egyptian invasion. Also comment on how @ChiefJames87 has opted not to address any points about Egypt blocking the Straits of Tiran nor expelling UN peacekeepers, but instead pivoted to the Lavon Affair in order to avoid those inconvenient counterpoints.

Menachem Begin in his 1982 National Defense College speech: "In June 1967, we again had a choice. The Egyptian Army concentrations in the Sinai approaches do not prove that Nasser was really about to attack us. We must be honest with ourselves. We decided to attack him. This was a war of self-defence in the noblest sense of the term." He called it a "war of choice," unlike existential ones like 1948 or 1973. The Lavon Affair (Operation Susannah, 1954): Israeli Military Intelligence recruited Egyptian Jews to bomb civilian targets (cinemas, libraries, US/UK sites) in Egypt as a false flag to blame Arabs and pressure Britain to retain Suez troops. It failed; agents were arrested, two executed, sparking Israel's defense minister's resignation and scandal.

Every war Israel has fought is a war of defense. In every war, they were attacked first.

@TCNetwork Benjamin Netanyahu served with Sayeret Matkal, and Tucker Carlson - clearly born with a silver spoon in his mouth - calls him weak 😂

Benjamin Netanyahu is fundamentally weak at the core.

@ChiefJames87 @billmaher Oh? Was Israel also blocking the Straits of Tiran? Was Israel also responsible for a massive troop buildup in the Sinai? Did Israel kick UN peacekeepers out of the Sinai?

@MatthewWolfson2 @billmaher What was Israel doing before the six day war oh that’s right bombing their own hotel trying to frame Egypt.

@ChiefJames87 @billmaher And what was Egypt doing just before the six day war? In fact, what was Izz ad-Din al-Qassam doing when the Irgun was founded? And as far as colonization goes, are there many other examples of colonization where the colonizers had ancestral interests to the land?

BS. They started the 6 day war with a preemptive strike. It astounds me that people just roll with these illogical excuses that start from Israel themselves. Let’s remember this colonization began with Edmund Rothschild in the 1880’s. Irgun was terrorizing Palestine long before 1948.

@IanCarrollShow No chance of that. None at all.

Israel does not have the right to exist. They need to be immediately disarmed and dismantled. Forever.

I assume that you share reports of Jews being assaulted to show they need protection. I wonder how persuasive this tactic is. At this point, the people who haven’t been convinced aren’t going to be. Rather than showing Jews to be soft targets, I want messages of resilience and hope. I want to read stories about Jews who defended themselves. I want reports of Jews fighting back.

“Are you Jewish?” In Toulouse 🇫🇷, a 61-year-old Jewish man was assaulted party after being asked that question. He was pushed off his bicycle and attacked near a Free Palestine demonstration. The suspect, identified as a member of a far-left French party, has been arrested and reportedly confessed. A man was attacked not for what he did, but for who he is. And people still ask why Jews feel unsafe.

@uricohenisrael יפה

Missing my Savta Tsofia, who came to Israel from Syria before it was established and helped fight for this land ❤️

@Sundancencass @CancelledJew Because the two aren’t mutually exclusive and are actually aligned. Cue the droning of ZOG conspiracy theory mantras.

@CancelledJew So why be pro-israel?

Being Anti-Israel is the mass trend. I've never been more Pro-Israel. Lesson there.

@libsoftiktok What did Charlie Kirk do that was so bad to make people so bitter toward him?

MAKE HIM FAMOUS 👇🏻

@Kitty_Kat3030 @ousmannoor @TheGreenParty @SWP_Britain Here’s what I’m trying to say in plain English: International law is not simple, and you don’t know it. If you had to write a factum (legal brief) on its application to the Israel context, you wouldn’t know where to begin.

@MatthewWolfson2 @ousmannoor @TheGreenParty @SWP_Britain Being a lawyer doesn’t make the principles unclear. Equality before the law, protection of civilians, and freedom from discrimination aren’t abstract or optional they’re foundational. The debate is how they’re applied, not whether they exist.

ZIONISM IS RACISM At the march against the far right in London today. Good to see people standing against racism, but we must be clear that Zionism is Racism. Every Zionist is also a Racist. Unions and @TheGreenParty @SWP_Britain should be explicit on this.

I’m a lawyer. I don’t practice international law, but I do know that it’s way less clear cut than criminal law, for instance. So I’m taking with a grain of salt your allusion to “clear legal principles” - particularly where it pertains to Areas B and C of the West Bank (areas agreed to under the Oslo Accords). Be that as it may, I already stated that I can be critical of Israel in the way it manages its security apparatus. When I do, I’m almost invariably met by someone who’s not anywhere close to being similarly conciliatory - and that extends to calling Hams “resistance fighters”.

@MatthewWolfson2 @ousmannoor @TheGreenParty @SWP_Britain Calling it nuance shouldn’t dilute clear legal principles. Unequal legal systems, restrictions on movement, and differential rights aren’t abstract debates they’re issues that have been repeatedly raised in international law and human rights reporting.

Indeed. Now we’re rightly getting into nuance because - contrary to what many state - there’s little that is simple about this conflict and its history. Palestinian Arabs had their reasons for rejecting multiple deals. That doesn’t mean that it was the smartest decision. And if you’re talking about military tribunals when discussing unequal systems, I’d say again that Zionism doesn’t mean that you agree with everything Israel does and has ever done.

@MatthewWolfson2 @ousmannoor @TheGreenParty @SWP_Britain It’s not as simple as 'they have their own government' or 'they rejected peace' Issues like occupation, control, restrictions on movement, and unequal legal systems are well documented and part of why this is so contested internationally. Reducing it to one side’s decisions is

No. That’s not how it began. Putting aside the Jews who had always lived there, it started with the (re)settling of hundreds of thousands of Jews through the purchase of land in areas that would later comprise the Jewish half of a two-state partition plan. That’s not colonialism; that’s a return and establishment through economics and international politics. That partition plan was ratified by the international community but unfortunately rejected by one side. After rejecting it, five surrounding Arab countries invaded the land in order to crush any hope of Jewish self-determination. Around that time, those 700,000 that you spoke about departed for what became Gaza and the West Bank due to fear, military expulsion, and urging by Arab leaders—not just expulsion. Israel went on to gain about 700,000 Mizrahi Jews from the surrounding Arab countries from which they themselves were chased out. That’s a much more accurate detailing of the beginning of the Jewish self-determination we’re talking about. As for the other things you wrote, there are more half-truths and untruths to unpack. The two-tier system you describe exists in the West Bank where Palestinian Arabs do indeed have their own government called the Palestinian Authority. They have a different government because they are not Israeli citizens. Though it’s not entirely accurate to say that they have no citizenship. Many countries recognize them as citizens under the Palestinian Authority. Areas not controlled entirely by the Palestinian Authority (e.g. Area B) are managed by Israeli security forces. It could have been different, but proposals for much more control of the West Bank were rejected by Arafat in 2000, by Abbas in 2008, and again in 2020. As such, the 1993 Oslo Accord setting out that shared jurisdiction remains. Gaza is a different story. All I’ll say about that is this: after Israel completely withdrew in 2005, maybe it was a bad idea to elect a terror group with Israel’s destruction as its raison d’être to govern Gaza. Here’s where I agree with you: there’s not much self-determination going on in the West Bank and Gaza because there haven’t been elections in either territory for the past two decades. You can blame whomever you’d like for that. If my response was long-winded, that’s only because it takes way more time and effort to correct half-truths and untruths than it takes to just blurt them out. Concluding thought: being a Zionist doesn’t mean that you have to agree with everything Israel does and has done.

@MatthewWolfson2 @ousmannoor @TheGreenParty @SWP_Britain That self-determinationbegan with expelling 700,000 Palestinians in 1948 and has since created a two-tier system where millions live under military occupation with no rights, no vote, no citizenship. That's not self-determination. That's settler colonialism that became apartheid.

@Raffiatim @ousmannoor @TheGreenParty @SWP_Britain And by giving Palestinian Arabs with Israeli citizenship full rights and allowing them to elevate themselves to some of the highest positions in Israeli society… sounds like racial oppression to me.

@MatthewWolfson2 @ousmannoor @TheGreenParty @SWP_Britain >> punishable under the 1973 Apartheid Convention and the 1998 Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court". And Zionism is clearly a version of apartheid.

@Raffiatim @ousmannoor @TheGreenParty @SWP_Britain Unless we’re just going to be making up our own definitions, it’s not.

@MatthewWolfson2 @ousmannoor @TheGreenParty @SWP_Britain Zionism is a form of apartheid, a system of institutionalized oppression and domination by one racial group over another/others.

@O_Blaublau @Amir__Gol @AGHamilton29 Yes, I just learned that the original video is a dance video.

@MatthewWolfson2 @Amir__Gol @AGHamilton29 both are AI by the way

People like Kasparian are so filled with hate that they believe and promote anything that would justify their hate. Their feeds are filled with this slop, and they push it constantly because they don't care about the truth.
