The reality is that very few Americans are motivated to take a stand because even Palestinian activists fail to explain how Israel has harmed the American people over the years, from the USS Liberty, the Lavon Affair, the Jonathan Pollard Scandal, to the push for the Iraq War and Israel’s role in the current push for war with Iran, not to mention Israel’s role in destabilizing Syria. Madonna is a not a cruel, uncaring person. Maybe if she knew the extent of Israel’s crimes, she too would care more for a just settlement for Palestine.
Or why not accept his right to free speech, and stop being afraid to really lay out the case against Israel, no holds barred? There are so many things one can truthfully say about Israel and what it has done to the US, that would end the Zionist enterprise a lot sooner than expected, but people must have both the courage and the freedom to say these things. Curbing free speech from the other side only limits ones’ own speech in the long run.
Why aren’t Palestinian activists focusing like a laser beam on Israel’s nefarious role in the Syrian tragedy? When will they realize that the road to independence goes through making Americans aware of how bad Israel has been for the world? Why aren’t they exposing the fact that Israel stole nuclear technology from us in the sixties? That Israel was the main reason for the Iraq War? I could go on and on. The information is there to defeat Israel, but they never use it. Why? I am genuinely stumped by this. It would help if Americans who do know the truth encouraged them to change tactics. Because what has been tried has not worked.
How did we go from even W supporting a two state solution to this? Obama did not do one tangible thing to push the Israelis to make a just settlement, and the rest was history. Obama was indeed a cruel hoax, especially for the Palestinians.
But Bernie still supports Jewish nationalism in Israel. Don’t get it twisted. He does not favor a one state solution. Diversity for thee, not for me….
https://atlantajewishtimes.timesofisrael.com/emory-pro-palestinian-students-call-to-boycott-jewish-organizations/ I read this article in a local Jewish journal. Check out one of the comments:
From Marcia Karon – “Why does Emory accept terrorists as students? Are they really students? What are they studying? There is no such thing as a Palestinian people and the Arabs living in Israel have more rights than Arabs anywhere else in the Middle East. Why don’t they protest about freeing Gaza from Hamas?”
If anyone wants to respond to her nasty comment, please visit the link above.
What leverage do Palestinians have if all they are ever allowed to do is “negotiate” over a pizza that is more than three-fourths eaten?
Convicted of a process crime! I am no fan of Flynn, for I suspect he would have been neocon lite, but at least he wasn’t trying to demonize Russia and gin up support for WW3!
It is incredibly either naive or deceptive for the author of this piece to pretend that the Obama admin was not supporting ISIS early on. Michael Flynn revealed American support for ISIS in an interview on Al Jazeera. You can also find a statement proving this support in the DIA Memo of 2012. We also supported Al Qaeda affiliates, including the one that sawed off a Palestinian pre teen boy’s head off.
Jewish Zionists could not get away with their hypocrisy if we started calling them what they are, Jewish nationalists, many of whom are actual Jewish supremacists.
