Sorry Walid, not even with all years of al Qasam together, they cannot even barely meet the quota a month of violence of a typical 3rd world city. Perhaps not even the daily quote of the biggest cities.
Wow, the Israeli was blushed, sort of ashamed, speachless! How could he argue without playing the victim game?
BTW, it was amazingly sad that what terrorizes that Israeli are the Isreali sirens not the bombs themselves!

Jews DO Control The Media
By Manny Friedman
**********************************
We’re a driven group, and not just in regards to the art world. We have, for example, AIPAC, which was essentially constructed just to drive agenda in Washington DC. And it succeeds admirably. And we brag about it. Again, it’s just what we do.
But the funny part is when any anti-Semite or anti-Israel person starts to spout stuff like, “The Jews control the media!” and “The Jews control Washington!”
Suddenly we’re up in arms. We create huge campaigns to take these people down. We do what we can to put them out of work. We publish articles. We’ve created entire organizations that exist just to tell everyone that the Jews don’t control nothin’. No, we don’t control the media, we don’t have any more sway in DC than anyone else. No, no, no, we swear: We’re just like everybody else!
Does anyone else (who’s not a bigot) see the irony of this?
Let’s be honest with ourselves, here, fellow Jews. We do control the media. We’ve got so many dudes up in the executive offices in all the big movie production companies it’s almost obscene. Just about every movie or TV show, whether it be “Tropic Thunder” or “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” is rife with actors, directors, and writers who are Jewish. Did you know that all eight major film studios are run by Jews?

The prize is a comic. Could the entry also be a comic?
That means Iberians and most people from Southern Europe are considered less than fully Europeans? I think that is pretty much true even for Anglo - Saxons.
I think straight hair is more related to some Asian mixture, like Nordics.
Is that an example of police state? Enlighten me just to make sure.
"A society personifying a social time bomb of robbery, violence, sodomy as well as assimilation alongside the destruction of the institute of marriage and the proper family unit – such a society must be separate and distant, and the sooner the better."
I could assume he is describing the Israeli society. In fact, it could be a better description than that given to the African immigrants, given the higher rates of violence, possession of atomic bombs, approval of the conscription of millions of people to ghettos.
So, Mr. Yishai is opening the first branch of the Ku Klux Klan! Financed and instaured by the the Isreali government! Oh, wait!!!
Israel is KKK now!!!
I wonder what kind of idea does this protest bring to the mind of most Israelis? Don't most they think anti - zionism = anti - semitism?
Self victimization is a sad trait of Zionists. Even if those people are raised in great upbringing, achieve the highest standards of living in the world, they still try to portray themselves as being discriminated as India's Dalits!
How is it possible to discuss rationally with these people about the Palestinian's segregation if they will always think like this?
That's the point about being left naked. All of these big companies have big investments or at least use patents for inventions from companies that deal with Israel. Intel and IBM has cross licences with every other big hardware company. That means you would just had to stop using computers altogether...
So many things to BDS... Will we end naked and starving?
BTW, do mondoweiss' servers run on Intel chips?
Let's invert the discourse, a little bit:
Israel, with over 200 nukes, is the real existential threat to 400 million people that lives on the territory of its enemies.
400 million people can be vaporized with the a few minutes after the press of a button within a millionth of a second.
Israel's government is dominated by insane terrorists with a racial-tribal supremacist ideology, which can run out of control at any second.
Israel is not a tiny country surrounded by enemies, but the biggest and best equipped military base of the world, located within the geographic center of ill equipped armies and that can barely defend populations full of poor, innocent, hard working people.
He is constantly repeating the same thing not to make it true but because you have trouble to learn. It is like repeating the same thing over and over at an special education classroom.
And settlers in question are armed and they are enemies, who stole land. They do not own anything and the regard for their lives is a moot point.
OlegR, what are you suggesting, then? A 2SS where Jews are 2nd rate citizens in Palestinian territories?
This is why I think primarily targeting the Christian discourse is more useful than the Jewish one. It is like BDS the Israeli campaign donations, even if by just a little bit.
Diversity is wonderful, but there are several ways to be diverse. Skin color or facial features does not mean that they won't be affiliated to, for example, evangelical churches that support Apartheid Israel.
I can now see why the Israeli lobby can be something really evil to Jews:it looks like I am reading the dialogues of a novelization of "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion".
That's true everywhere. If it happens in USA( it is quite interesting that they call their country as the entire continent), it is because people agree with that and let it happen.
@Philip
You cannot expect much from her. It seems she just attended scientific facilities, so that is the same as not even living home in terms of seeing the truth.
In my country there is a saying in my country, Brazil, that goes like this "Começar a comer pelas pontas"(Beginning to eat something by its edges). That means when you have a difficult problem to solve, you start by its weak edges, in the same way when you are very hungry you star eating by the coolest places, the edges.
I think a better strategy would be not expect too much from your fellow Jews, but also start targeting Christian groups usually associated with Zionism since Israel cannot do their Hasbara as efficiently directly to them. Also, these groups are the ones who holds far more votes, so in the end, getting their support would be much more rewarding in the end.
And I think Mondoweiss is still lacking too and passive much in this regard. Christian groups are mostly referred here when they actively start a movement, like the Methodist with their support for BDS or the recent covering of the CBS covering of the Christian repression in West Bank. I do not see very frenquently Christians posting articles here, in Mondoweiss, about their struggle for the Palestinian civil rights, or their talks in churches .
What I see here, more frequently, instead, are Jews at Synagogues or other meetings trying to convince other Jews. But I do not feel this is the most appropriate strategy because the power, in reality, emanates from the Christian majority. There should be more talks to Christians.
And this should be actively seek here and not merely just wait for sporadic happenings.
