Less than 24 hours after Hamas’ October 7 Massacre, the genocide placards were already printed. The rest is commentary.
Captain Allen@CptAllenHistory

@rohbo1 This was Times Square in New York City on October 8 - check out the signs. The genocide libel was pre-planned. At this stage, Israel was still chasing Hamas terrorists around the kibbutzim and had not even counted or buried its dead.

El Al employees at a German airport asked if I was afraid to walk around in this t-shirt. Nope. And the star never comes off. When someone stares, I stare back. Bullies are like bloodhounds — they smell fear. Ask yourself: why do people wear kaffiyehs without any fear of being attacked? The answer captures the entire essence of the Arab-Israeli conflict — and the Jew hatred that has spread like wildfire since October 7th. One side is entitled, propped up by endless global sympathy, free to throw emotional tantrums without consequence. The other has always faced global hostility — and is perpetually expected to show restraint, shrink itself, go invisible, so as not to “provoke” those who are always one moment away from their next tantrum. #Israel #palestine

Jews being called baby-killers. Jewish girls having their hair yanked by violent mobs. Jews being accused of zoophilic sadism. Isn’t it amazing how much ‘criticism of Israel’ sounds like medieval Jew-hatred?, says Brendan O’Neill buff.ly/ay5k4yG

In Toronto, a young Jewish girl named Esther has been missing for over a week. To make matters worse, people have been ripping down posters about her disappearance, just like they did with the hostage posters after 10/7—one of the more appalling things I've ever seen in my life.

The denial everywhere serves the same purpose: to distort Israel’s defensive war into wanton violence. The global left prefers anything to reminding the world why Israel has no choice but to fight. WSJ editorial:

Jerusalem of Iron 🇮🇱 עם ישראל חי
Richard Greene: "In conversations I've had with young people about their deep hatred of Israel here in Europe I've come up with some startling conclusions. 1. There seems to be a strong consensus that Israel should NOT have attacked back after the October 7 attacks on them. There are two reasons for this: a) No matter what, children do not deserve to die and if ANY response would kill innocent children, then it is immoral. b) That attacking back only perpetuates a potentially endless cycle of war. 2. When I ask the obvious follow-up question, "Well, what SHOULD Israel/Netanyahu have done?" the overwhelming, and immediate, answers have been, "I don't know but, definitely, not what they did!" 3. Most do not know that Hamas continued, virtually every day, to attack Israel AFTER October 7, and fired over 30,000 rockets into CIVILIAN areas of Israel. And when they were informed the answer was, "It doesn't matter". 4. The concept of self-defense and fighting to stop FUTURE attacks seems to be impossible for them to grasp. They reflexively default to "Retaliation", and that retaliation by a stronger army is someone inherently unfair, especially if it kills innocent children. 5. The extremely limited pre-frontal cortex operations continue. When informed of the horrific, barbaric actions of Hamas, and even their extremist goals to destroy Israel, and Jews, the almost unanimous and instant response is "Not all Palestinians are Hamas". Or, "The children Israel is killing are not Hamas". 6. The valid statement that what Israel did was NOT a "Genocide" is seen as incredibly technical, semantic, legal and insensitive. And almost useless against the emotional and incessantly repeated claims to the contrary. And, yes, innocent children were killed by Israel so it must, to them, be something as horrible as "genocide", or perhaps even worse. 7. Reminding people about the horrific actions against Muslims, or Christians, in the streets of Iran, in Yemen, in Somalia and so many other places is useless. It truly seems that the funny phrase, "No Jews, No News" is actually a thing. And double standards seem to be an inexorable part of that. 8. There is virtually zero understanding about the dangerous, extremist agenda of Islamists and Jihadists. In fact, at a tennis tournament I spoke with someone who actually works at The UN in Geneva and asked her whether it was true that people in Europe are increasingly uncomfortable with the growing influence, and terrorism from Muslims. She scolded me for even suggesting that any group can be generalized and said, boldly, that there are far more incidents of Right Wing Terrorism in Europe than from Muslims. The facts are that Islamic violent acts account for 41% and Right Wing only 5% in Europe. (Shocking, I know, that someone from The UN could be so clueless : ) Botton line: Attempting to even plant seeds of a different perspective with young "Free Palestine"/"Israel is Evil" believers is about as effective as trying to reason with hard-core MAGA Trump supporters. It's a cult and the virtue signaling and protests . . . and seeing those on social media - over and over and over again - has reinforced all of the above positions, no matter how inane or insane, to a very high degree. So, what to do? 1. Educate about the stated goals of Islamism and Jihadism Virtually no one understands that a SIGNIFICANT percentage of those following Islamic teachings dream of and work towards a "Global Caliphate" where EVERYONE is Muslim. And virtually no one knows that the destruction of Israel, and the killing of all "infidels" is the stated goal of many Islamic groups, especially the "Twelver Shia" sect which is headquartered in Iran. 2. Go on offense The Woke Left and Woke Right and most young people around the world are happy to go on offense against Israel . . . and do it with almost every sentence. It's even become cool to say vicious things about an entire country. So, it is absolutely fair to no longer agree to be the punching bag for the world. Here are some suggestions . . . *"Why do you support Genocide?" Hamas and Hezbollah are actually committed, in writing, to the actual genocide of the Jewish people. *"Why do you support Gender Apartheid against women? You know that virtually every one of Israel's enemies - both entire countries and, of course, Hamas and Hezbollah, treat women VERY differently than men. Second, or even third class citizens or, as some Islamist Clerics say, like "cows". *Why don't you support Free Speech? *Why don't you support LGBTQ Rights? *Why don't you support Democracy? *Why don't you support Abortion Rights? (And did you know that Israel is the only place in the Middle East where women CAN get abortions legally . . . and that they even provide free abortions to Palestinian women who go there from Gaza?) *Why is it so important to you that The Muslim Messiah, "The Mahdi" return to Earth to save the Muslim people? (Please do some research on Twelver Shia Islam. THIS is the motivation for Iran to fund Hamas, Hezbollah, The Houthies and other proxies to destroy Israel. Not kidding. *Why didn't you protest against 40,000 INNOCENT Iranian protesters who were shot - point blank - in the streets of Iran FOR protesting? Do you hate young Iranian men and women?" facebook.com/richard.greene…

Hen Mazzig@HenMazzig·
The Committee to Protect Journalists, the organization that Nicholas Kristof used as a major source for his "dog rape" story, has been caught silently removing the names of people from their list of journalists killed in Gaza. Because those "journalists" turned out to be less interested in reporting the news and more interested in killing Jews. Instead of acknowledging that they mistakenly put the names of terrorists on their journalist list, they silently deleted them instead. Because acknowledging they made a mistake would be giving Israel a little bit of credit, and they'd rather do anything than that.

#WoodyAllen on #antisemitism. Too many great lines here to quote
Simy Benarroch🇮🇱@SimyBenarroch

Woody Allen sobre el antisemitismo hoy 1/2 Woody: «Saben, siempre pensé que la mayor ventaja de Nueva York era que uno podía ser neurótico y nadie lo notaba. En otras ciudades te mandan al médico si hablas contigo mismo. En Manhattan te ofrecen una columna en una revista por ello. Ayer salí a comprar salmón. Por cierto, es la única tradición judía estable que ha sobrevivido a Babilonia, Roma y a mis relaciones con mujeres. Caminaba por Brooklyn pensando en la muerte. No porque sea filósofo. Sino porque ya tengo más de noventa, aunque originalmente había planeado llegar como mucho hasta los setenta. Y de repente —una multitud frente a una sinagoga. Al principio pensé que allí actuaba un famoso psicoanalista. En Nueva York la gente hace cola durante horas para escuchar por qué su madre tiene la culpa de todo. Aunque los judíos eso ya lo saben sin necesidad de conferencia. Pero no. Estaban gritando algo sobre “intifada”. ¿Y saben qué me sorprendió más? La cantidad de energía que tiene esa gente. ¿De dónde la sacan? Yo después de subir dos tramos de escaleras ya empiezo a escribir mi testamento. Y ellos listos para una revolución sin haberse tomado ni un café decente. Un tipo gritaba algo sobre “descolonización”. Dios mío. Cuando yo era joven, “colonización” significaba que la tía Frieda ocupaba nuestro sofá durante tres meses y se negaba a irse. Hoy de repente es una conspiración sionista. En general, el antisemitismo moderno se ha vuelto demasiado intelectual. Antes simplemente nos odiaban. Sin rodeos. Hoy no. Hoy alguien con bufanda, que parece que escribe poemas sobre su propia barba, te explica con ayuda de Heidegger y Nietzsche por qué la existencia de los judíos es una forma de agresión y una amenaza para la humanidad. Y yo estaba allí pensando: antes al menos nos pegaban personas sin título universitario. Hoy los organizadores de pogromos tienen diploma de Columbia University. Luego una chica a mi lado dijo: “Estamos contra el sionismo, no contra los judíos”. Eso es como si mi exmujer hubiera dicho: “No tengo nada contra ti. Solo estoy contra todo lo que dices, haces, sientes —y especialmente contra acostarme contigo”. El significado es el mismo. Y entonces alguien gritó: “¡Los sionistas son nazis!”. En ese momento sentí que mi abuela se habría girado en su tumba tan rápido que podría haber abastecido de electricidad parte de Queens. Mi abuela, por cierto, vivió a auténticos nazis. Se escondió en un sótano en Polonia con un hombre que tosía tan fuerte que los alemanes podrían haberlos encontrado solo por el sonido bronquial. Y ahora un chico de una universidad de élite, cuyo mayor trauma en la vida es un café frío de Starbucks, me explica qué significa fascismo. Realmente vivo en tiempos sorprendentes. Hoy la gente habla como si se hubiera tragado accidentalmente una biblioteca universitaria. Nadie dice ya: “Perdón, soy un idiota”. No. Hoy se dice: “Estoy deconstruyendo el relato dominante”. Escuchen, yo crecí entre judíos. Nosotros no deconstruimos relatos. Nosotros creamos relatos. Llegué a casa y encendí la televisión —porque cuando uno tiene ansiedad, la televisión parece una idea excelente. Es como tratar el alcoholismo con un martini con hielo. Allí Roger Waters volvía a explicar el mundo. Los músicos de rock siempre me dan miedo cuando envejecen y empiezan a hablar como paranoicos que ven conspiraciones al mirar un gato negro. Luego apareció Kanye West. En mi infancia, los locos al menos parecían locos. Pelo despeinado, abrigo, palomas, conversaciones con cubos de basura. Este tipo simplemente se pone una máscara negra y dice que ama a Hitler. Y ahí entendí: la humanidad ha avanzado mucho —de “nunca más” a “discutamos los matices”. ¿Y los políticos? Los políticos dicen: “La situación es complicada”. No. Complicado es explicar a una madre judía por qué su hijo de cuarenta años aún no está casado.
