Free Palestine, sayeth the Dodgy Manticore

Palestinian-American. Does not support war crimes or war criminals. Does not tolerate intolerance, LGBTQ+ hate, or voluntary ignorance. 🇵🇸 She/her


I want non-Jews to understand how monumental this shift as. As Jews we are raised with endless propaganda about how great Israel is. It’s part of our prayers, our family gatherings, our education, our extra curricular activities, even our fraternities. It’s everywhere, and there’s never another side presented. I practically never even heard the word Palestinian growing up. There was no asterisk next to how great Israel was. No war crimes to atone for. No ethnic cleansing, no open air prison, no list of massacres - just endless propaganda. And free paid trips to Israel from billionaires to try to convince us to move there. And that’s not to even mention the generic American propaganda we all face daily. So it’s absolutely staggering, that in the face of that endless, relentless propaganda, 44% of young American Jews favor the establishment of one non-religious state in Israel/occupied Palestine. Many of us are pissed that we’ve been lied to. We’ve done the research and learned the history about how truly Hitlerian Israel’s history is. This isn’t something that just happens by accident. You don’t have such large percentages of people mistakenly turning against their families, cultures, and traditions due to misinformation or misunderstandings. This kind of shift can only happen when people are exposed to the absolute worst horrors on the planet that their people have committed. The human psyche can justify or use cognitive dissonance for almost anything. But the evils from Israel have gone too far for far too long. Nobody with a conscience who is educated about what Israel has done for the past hundred years can come to a conclusion other than, “Israel in its current form should simply not exist.”

Trump said he is not sure the U.S. should sign a deal to end the war with Iran if Saudi Arabia and other gulf countries don't agree join the Abraham Accords. "They owe it to us", he said

🇺🇸 🇮🇷 THIS HAS TO BE A JOKE! U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT: “OUR OPERATION AGAINST IRAN 🇮🇷 DOESN’T JUSTIFY IRAN’S 🇮🇷 ATTACKS ON OUR TROOPS” WHAT ARE THEY SMOKING 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭


The federal budget deficit is expected to be over $2 Trillion this year based on President Trump’s budget. The largest in history outside of 2020 and 2021 due to Covid. The debt passed 100% of the economy in March and interest on the debt will be more than $1 Trillion this year. America has a financial crisis that needs to be addressed more than any foreign war or foreign interests. As Americans, we are all in the same boat regardless of our political leanings. And when the boat sinks, we all sink together and suffer the same fate. Making America Great Again should be putting America First and that should start with getting our financial house in order.

🔴 Israel carried out more than 120 airstrikes across 62 towns and villages in southern Lebanon and the western Bekaa on Tuesday, killing at least 31 people, including many children, and wounded 40 others, according to Lebanon’s Health Ministry and local reporting from L’Orient Today. ➤ The deadliest strike hit Burj al-Shemali near the southern coastal city of Tyre, killing 14 people, including two children and three women. ➤ Israeli attacks on Kawthariyet al-Rez killed 5 people, including two children, while strikes on Habboush killed 4 people, including two children. ➤ Israeli warplanes and drones also struck dozens of villages across southern Lebanon, while artillery shelling reportedly hit 28 localities, including at least one attack involving white phosphorus shells. ➤ Hezbollah said it carried out 32 operations targeting Israeli military positions and northern Israeli sites, including efforts aimed at slowing an Israeli push toward Zawtar al-Sharqieh, a village roughly 6 km south of the city of Nabatieh and north of the Litani River.

In Tel Aviv, gay people can walk hand in hand, live together, embrace their sexual orientation. Across the Arab world, that kind of openness would be unthinkable. You must know this, but your unslakable antisemitic — sorry, ant-Zionist — bloodlust inhibits honest tweeting.
