Your goose-stepping anti-Semitism is in full hob-nailed glory today.

Go outside and play in traffic, you gammon.

Israeli sucks. They created Hamas. All this despicable garbage was planned long ago.

Ziggy!!!!!!!!! How the fuck are you? Your 401k tanked yet? Maybe the better question is; do you have one?

 

[RobDownSouth]

1) We saw the very end of the video, right before the shooting started.

2) Hamas claims the victims were “bound and executed”, but it is clear from the video that the victims were NOT “bound and executed”.

3) There are never women or older paramedics in these "humanitarian convoys", always fighting age men.

4) I will repeat: Hamas uses ambulances to transport weapons and fighters (as well as using schools and hospitals as bases of operation.)

5) NO humanitarian organization currently working in Gaza is "vetted".

6) Currently, the event IS in the “fog of war” realm, because Hamas is still in charge, and the fighting and hostage situation remain active. Hamas clearly lying about the victims being “bound and executed” only further clouds the matter.



Meanwhile: In Ukraine, a Russian missile hit a playground and killed 7 kids, but I see zero concern from the “free Palestine” crowd. (And Russia is the aggressor in that war - just like Hamas / Gaza was the aggressor in the current war in "Palestine".

There is no "but Mom! The other side does it tooooo!" exception in the Geneva Accords.
You can choose to rationalize war crimes any way you like.

Give it up, people. There will never be peace in the Middle East.

Too many people on all sides do not want peace. They want victory. Which is something else altogether.

wow.

I really do NOT understand those pro-"Palestine" supporters who cry to “mom” about the mean Israelis more than Hamas. (and Hamas does it ALOT).

I understand why Hamas does it, (propaganda to elicit unwarranted sympathy) but after 10/7, the mini Jihad from Hezbollah, etc, and the continued hostage crisis, I am hard pressed to understand why "neutral" parties outside of Gaza have chosen that unworthy hill to die on: Especially when Hamas WANTED Israel to retaliate harshly so Hamas could use the harsh Israeli response to incite a global Jihad (and maybe to convince some bleeding heart Americans and westerners to cut off military aid, etc, to Israel).





Side note:

I understand those same pro-"Palestine" supporters who voted for Trump even less…

Unless and until Hamas is no longer in charge (operating / manning the ambulances, etc,) and the emergency services are operated under the auspices of a fully vetted non-terrorist authority, the ambulances, etc, will be fair game, with the accusations of “war crimes” being moot.

The actions of the genocidal Zionists have ensured that there will be another generation of resistance fighters. What else are the Palestinian people in Gaza to do when their families have been largely wiped out?

I'm glad to see that a Pew poll finds that a majority of Americans hold an unfavorable view of Israel:

https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/majority-americans-hold-unfavourable-view-israel-pew-poll-finds

It's sickening how so many US politicians are in the pockets of Zionists, and are serving a foreign power in Israel before they serve the American people. More and more people can see this, at last.

There can be no question that if you had been a German in the 1920s-30s, you would have been a zealous SA man. (You wouldn't qualify for the SS.)

Using "Zionist" a lot has definite CT resonances. In your case I will attribute it to the inevitable ideological antipathy of international communists to nationalists of any kind.

It isn't just Israel that I'm talking about, but politicians in the US who serve them through lobby groups like AIPAC. These are the same sort of politicians who supported the Palmer Raids and McCarthyism in the past, yet here they are serving Israel.

The Bernie Sanders and AOC rally removing a Palestinian flag also shows the controlled opposition aspect.

So? Israel ain't Communist, never was, despite fascist fantasies to the contrary.

Bernie and AOC have learned that the Palestinian flag is divisive and a performative luxury that the left can't afford in the fight to defeat fascism at home.

The Republicans currently control the Presidency, Senate and House through democracy. All this liberal cry of "fascism! fascism!" is like the boy who cried wolf.

Hitler rose to power by being voted in. The Republicans are snatching people off the streets and shipping them off to concentration camps. What will it take to convince the socialists to fight against them?

Actually no. The Nazis won the July 1932 and November 1932 elections (a bigger win in July), but were locked out of power by the other parties initially. It was only when the Chancellorships of Franz von Papen and Kurt von Schleicher failed to restore capitalist "order" that Von Papen offered Adolf Hitler the Chancellorship on January 30, 1933.

The Nazis got into power by Hitler being appointed Chancellor on January 30, 1933. They proceeded to use the SA stormtroopers to utterly smash the German labor movement, the strongest in Europe, and put prominent communists, socialists and trade unionists into the Dachau concentration camp.

Another thing about fascism. The government and its apparatus has an obsessive control everywhere, including anti-worker nationalizations of the big corporations. Mussolini called it a merger of corporate and state power.

Trump isn't going to stop with just using ICE against immigrants. Every American is in danger of being shipped off to a foreign camp if they don't comply. Now is not the time to apply purity tests for those willing to oppose him.

This is why we can defeat Trump. He stupidly alienated the veterans and the farmers early on. He doesn't have mass support. If we keep up the pressure his administration will crack.

"Becky" obviously "thinks" that no other foreign nations / interests (Russia??? The Saudis???) besides Israel / "Zionists" have SOME sway over American politics…

This is a direct link to the Pew Poll referenced in the biased link above.

Pew did an excellent job slicing and dicing all the internals in the poll and compared results to the last time they conducted the poll.

Something for everyone in there.

The things that stood out to me is

1. Trump has screwed up the American economy so badly that Americans no longer consider the Israeli pogrom against the Gazans to be "very important" .
2. Trump's idea to turn Gaza into a "beachfront resort" is hugely unpopular with Americans: 62% of Americans oppose the U.S. taking over Gaza (49% who strongly oppose this). 15% think it is a splendid idea and 22% don't know and/or don't give a fuck.
3. 53% of Americans now express a somewhat or very unfavorable opinion of Israel. This is significantly higher than the 43% who felt that way back in early 2022.

There has been no "Israeli pogrom against the Gazans"

October 7th was a classic pogrom -- an orgy of rape, murder and kidnapping directed again the Jews who lived near Gaza.

Calling Israel's response to the October 7th attack a "pogrom" is an example of DARVO -- Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender.

Are you brainwashed, or deliberately spreading misinformation?

October 7, 2023 was not the start of this.

What do you consider "the start of this"?

 

[RandyRebecca]

What do you consider "the start of this"?

At least 1947-1948 with the UN Partition Plan and the Nakba, the latter of which saw over 700,000 Palestinians expelled from their land. You can make a case as far back as 1917, when the British promised Palestine to both the Arabs and to the Jews, in different deals, at a time when the Jewish population of Palestine was well under 10%. By 1947, the Jewish population of Palestine was more like 33% (pre-Nakba).

The warmongers act like Gaza was fine before October 7, 2023, and Ukraine was fine before February 24, 2022. Laughable.
