@ViadelCorso2266 Indeed. Even many of them haven’t realised it themselves yet… unfortunately. If they did maybe a solution could be found.

@jnewfield Yes. And this is lost on too many people.

There exists a very long list of Arab nationalist leaders who openly and repeatedly  stated Palestinian identity was manufactured  only as a means to attack and destroy the state of Israel. This is by no means a complete list: ●Awni Abd al-Hadi (1937): Testifying before the British Peel Commission, this prominent Palestinian politician and nationalist stated, "There is no such country as Palestine. ●Zuheir Mohsen, Senior PLO leader, 1977 stated: "The Palestinian people do not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity… Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct ‘Palestinian people’ to oppose Zionism. Yes, the existence of a separate Palestinian identity exists only for tactical reasons.” • Feisal Husseini (2001): The PLO's top official in Jerusalem famously described the Oslo peace process in an interview with Al-Arabi as a sham and a ruse to destroy Israel. He literally  called Oslo a"Trojan Horse," suggesting the provisional statehood steps were strategic mechanisms meant to eventually liberate all of mandatory Palestine from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea. ●Yasser Arafat (1994): Shortly after signing the Oslo Accords, PLO Chairman Yasser Arafat gave a speech in a Johannesburg mosque where he compared the peace treaty to the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah—a historical ten-year truce signed by the Prophet Muhammad that was broken when the Muslim forces grew strong enough to conquer Mecca. This  evidences  viewing statehood negotiations and manufactured Palestinian  identity as a purely tactical maneuver. • King Abdullah of Jordan: Throughout the 1948 and 1950 period, following Jordan's military entry and subsequent annexation of the West Bank, the Hashemite leadership actively absorbed the region. King Abdullah proclaimed himself the ruler of Palestine and promoted the integration of the local Arab population, firmly opposing the idea of an independent, distinct Palestinian state. • King Hussein of Jordan: In the early years of the Palestinian national movement, Jordan's King Hussein firmly opposed the notion of a separate "Palestinian entity." In January 1960, he convened a conference of Hashemite loyalists to denounce the "despicable innovation" of establishing a distinct Palestinian state, as Jordan sought to solidify a broader, united Jordanian national identity following its governance of the West Bank. • Azzam Pasha: As the Secretary-General of the Arab League during the period surrounding the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, he viewed the Arabs in the region as an extension of a broader Arab nation. Historically, Mandate-era Arab leaders in the region often defined themselves culturally and religiously as part of the broader Ottoman system or as part of a "Greater Syria," rather than as a separate, distinct Palestinian nationality. ●Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Zahar in the 1990s, rejected manufactured Palestinian identity for a broader pan-Islamic one, being that as more conducive  to oan-Arabism than over localized nation-states. ●'Palestinian' historian Muhammad Y. Muslih, stated- during the entire 400 year period of Ottoman rule (1517-1918), before the British set up the 30-year-long Palestine Mandate, “There was no political unit known as Palestine.” ●Azmi Bishara, founding leader of the nationalist Balad Party (with seats in the Israeli parliament since 1999). In a statement he made in 2002 he said: “My Palestinian identity never precedes my Arab identity…. I don’t think there is a Palestinian nation, there is [only] an Arab nation.

The Turkish Foreign Minister goes full-blown Hitler on Israel: "These people have become a burden that humanity can no longer bear. With these policies and this mindset, humanity cannot carry this burden any longer."

We have given Israel 174 billion dollars since 1948 (not adjusted for inflation I’m not good at that). Of that 124 BILLION was given as a credit to be used in America on American weapons. That money didn’t leave the country. It became contracts, payroll, and R&D at Lockheed, Boeing, Raytheon, General Dynamics, and hundreds of smaller suppliers. In effect, a large share of “aid to Israel” is a federal procurement program to fund American weapons production. Defense spending sustains somewhere between 15,000-30,000 American jobs a year depending on which model you use. And when the Pentagon then buys the same F-35s, interceptors, or munitions, the per-unit cost is lower because Israel’s orders helped spread the fixed costs and sustain the supply chain. So the aid functions as a subsidy to the US defense industrial base that lowers the price America pays for its own weapons. So the real aide number is actually closer to like 47 billion dollars on actual money that leaves this county since 1948. The total number of foreign aide, not adjusted for inflation since 1948 (a strong researched conservative estimate) is 1.6 trillion dollars. So 3%. That is why I don’t take the anti-Israel critics seriously when they start talking about our aid to Israel. They don’t honestly analyze the situation and the reason they don’t honestly analyze the situation because they need it to be the only problem that matters and so it’s much cashier to throw out a number then explain it. But that’s why I don’t take any of these liars seriously.

When I was a child, my grandfather would sometimes solemnly intone at the dinner table: "The purpose of socialism is to organize scarcity." As a kid it sort-of didn't register in my brain as meaning anything beyond "socialism bad", but eventually when I was 12 or something, I did ask what he meant by those specific words. And he said: socialists establish control of valuable resources and then create an artificial scarcity of these resources, so that they can then use them as a tool of control by deciding who gets and doesn't get those resources. And I thought that was wrong. I mean, are socialists misguided? Sure. But to claim that they deliberately create scarcity as a means of political control? That seemed far-fetched. But, of course, he was entirely correct.

@amiKozak @reenchuk @TonyLapidus Awesome guys! 😂

Nice to meet a kindred spirit - 👊🏻 @TonyLapidus 🇺🇸🇬🇧

@DavidMKeyes Give him one for the road from me!

No idea how it happened, but I've been invited to Ayatollah Khamenei’s funeral. Have to pack. Might not be tweeting for a while.

NYC-DSA is not just growing. It is building the machinery to turn radical ideology into political power. The numbers show the scale: the largest DSA chapter in America, roughly 90,000 volunteers, hundreds of field leads, a candidate pipeline, and coordination that continues after Election Day. This is how a movement stops looking like protest and starts looking like infrastructure. New York is the testing ground. The machine is already being built.

SHOCKING VIDEO: What does a neo-Nazi have in common with a DSA politician? Watch 2026 candidates use THE EXACT SAME rhetoric about AIPAC that white supremacists have pushed for years. "AIPAC" was always code for Jews. You cannot unsee this.

Of course I am speaking to you! Why do you think I mentioned the Holy Sefer!!! I think we agree on a lot but sorry to say… learning when the Army needs soldiers - it doesn’t cut it. Of course we need merits, Torah, mitzvot but consider that learning when Army needs soldiers and others are not only putting their lives at risk and are also paying for such learning through their taxes (whilst families are struggling due to their husbands being in reserves for so long) - well what do you think that “learning” is really worth? A mitzvah haba be’aveirah if you ask me. At the very least there should be some respect and humility about the relative contributions.

Speaking to me?? Look at my handle again. You and I will agree 💯 % on the 'aderaba'. I wish Ravid would read a few paragraphs of אם הבנים שמחה. My primary point was that the Divine Providence on #Am_Yisrael & #Eretz_Yisrael every second of every day is tied to the merits of #Am_Yisrael and being committed to the genuine Jewish Legacy. As such, while he was trying to ridicule @netanyahu for pushing the parity of those committed to #Torat_Yisrael as a vocation with IDF soldiers, he obviously demonstrates that he believes only in; כוחי ועוצם ידי עשו לי את החיל הזה. Ultimately our success is not contingent on the great acumen of our IAF or Israeli intelligence or battle units, but on our merits. Commitment to learning #Torat_Yisrael is certainly one of those merits. I'm also of the opinion that ALL those that Torah is not their vocation (and certainly more than 40 hours/week @mk_moshe_gafni @ariyederi) should definitely be drafted (חבל"ז)

The Netanyahu coalition passed today in a first reading a bill that says that tens of thousands of ultra-Orthodox men who study in a religious Yeshivas have the same status as men who serve in the IDF. This happens as Israel is still at war & the IDF warns it's short on troops

1000 ימים לטבח השביעי באוקטובר. תגידו תודה שלא הייתם שם.

@RomBraslavski @reenchuk Stay strong achi 💪 We pray for you and all those who lost family and friends and who are injured and traumatized…

@DanBurmawy @JeremyDBoreing 💯

Several people commented on my interview with @JeremyDBoreing saying I was risking my life. If you believe Islam is that dangerous to free speech, why are you silent? There’s safety in numbers. If everyone spoke, The jihadists couldn’t kill us all. Instead everyone waits for someone else to go first, one speaker gets killed or silenced, then the next, and the crowd that could have protected all of us never shows up. Keep choosing to be a coward, and eventually there’s no one left to speak.

@ChanclaDirty @SpencerGuard And there you go… the other footage not enough for you. Just as I suspected.

@jnewfield @SpencerGuard No beheaded babies. Where they at

1000 days. I will never forget what I saw on Hamas videos of October 7th.

Cmon read his book Eim Habanim Shmeicha again … Torah, Army, State of Israel… these are not mutually exclusive- adaraba… they are in fact integrated together. Yes there is also much to improve within the army and society in general with respect to Torah, but when it’s needed people of all walks of life need to serve - only a miyut of a miyut should have an exception in this case.

@BarakRavid Do you really believe that #Am_Yisrael can be victorious without being committed to #Torat_Yisrael?! And full disclosure; I do side with my fellow citizens saying that if one is not committed to a life of learning Torah as a vocation, they must be drafted.

@SpencerGuard Thanks for your efforts. Important to remind ourselves and share what happened - see below 👇

@ChanclaDirty @SpencerGuard Have a look here then… you may even find something that troubles you.

@SpencerGuard You got the link. All this time I still Have yet to see anything described. Not one beheaded baby

Little Mehdi loves to use a good story with names and places to seem authentic and credible. This time he got caught and exposed as the shill he is. Well done @EylonALevy

@GCKopinsky @ldkop Actually no words to describe it sufficiently.

@ldkop @jnewfield EVIL, not sick. Not the same thing. In this case, it might be STUPID alongside the EVIL.
