I’ll never understand you Americans.
Raisi's chopper eats a mountain? You cheer.
Nasrallah gets blown to bits? You cheer.
Israel wipes Hezbollah’s entire command and their families with a pager attack? Standing ovation.
Bomb an Iranian embassy? Applause.
Assassinate Hamas’ political guy in Tehran? Fireworks.
Iranian scientists get assassinated? Cheers all around.
And every time your own government drone-strikes some poor bastard’s wedding in Waziristan? High-fives and flag-waving.
But the second one of your own gets JFK’d, suddenly it’s “unfair,” “unjust,” “against international norms.”
Cry harder.
The boomerang finally swung back—and you don’t like the taste of your own medicine.
What the fuck did you expect?
@broseph_stalin This guy can't be trusted at all. He's more recently said some questionable things regarding his views on Ukraine, Uyghur Muslims, etc. 100% pro Nato and not to be trusted if we've remotely learnt anything.
There is no despair like the one I live, when even surrender is beyond reach. It's as if I’m forced to stand amid the ruins—not because I'm strong, but because I wasn't given the luxury to fall. I resist while exhausted, inside and out, searching for a moment of collapse that never comes.
And if what I live through doesn't strike your conscience like a blow to the skull, then what will? If Gaza doesn’t wake you, if this face carrying a shattered homeland doesn’t shake you, then what is the point of your humanity? What use are all the books you've read, if you pass over me without breaking?
Here is Zack Polanski, the Deputy leader of the Green Party being treated with kid gloves on Novara.
Who is he?
He's literally a Zionist footsoldier, part of that movement's wave of entryists that have taken over every major party (and even many of the minor ones).
The Labour Party have been “complicit” in “what’s happening in Gaza”, but he thinks its worse than that - they have been “enabling” it. He also says that Labour have “cheered on warmongers”. It is notable that the word ‘genocide’ is not uttered.
He says he has a duty and responsibility to “speak out” as a Jewish person on Gaza. He says "the idea that non-Jewish people can lecture Jewish people on antisemitism seems particularly absurd". This is an outrageous weaponization of identity politics meant to strip away the ability of 'goyim' or 'gentiles' to fight Jewish supremacism, for which 'antisemitism' is the key discursive shield.
He also endorses the 'Labour antisemitism' smear campaign, saying that from afar, it "looks pretty messy and not something I want to be involved with" which made him shrink from supporting Corbyn.
He smears Labour supporters: “I still experience from time to time, people on Twitter and social media spaces defending Jeremy Corbyn and flirting, or at least being explicitly antisemitic. So those pockets [of ‘antisemitism’] still exist”.
He acknowledges that an Israel lobby exists and also claims that you “almost can’t be strong enough in your condemnation of Netanyahu” . But, he says that condemnation can “still spill into antisemitic tropes, conspiracies” about ”Zionistic power”.
He says Corbyn wasn't critical enough of people "on the fringes of the party" over 'antisemitism'. And felt compelled to keep them in to maintain a broad church. This is of course a further smear.
He isn't asked at all about the Zionist movement — and the fact that he is apparently part of it, and responsible for taking the Greens in a more aggressively Zionist direction during a Nakba.
On the one hand, he complains that the two-party system creates a problem whereby the parameters of acceptable discourse are narrowed unreasonably.
On the other hand, his is just after he has defined the acceptable parameters of discourse, as a Jew, on Zionism (or “Zionistic power” as he calls it) and the genocide in Palestine (a subject he only addresses as 'antisemitism' - he notably fails to use the word genocide or to talk about Zionism).
Everything he says is virtually indistinguishable from the script used by Mossad assets to penetrate the left, including Corbynism itself!
If you want to #DismantleZionism beware of voting Green. There are some pro-Palestine candidates out there for the Greens, but the party leadership is lost.

Moral values are utterly consistent.
I support Palestinians, Uyghurs, and Ukrainians.
I condemn Netanyahu, Jinping, and Putin.
Trump — and Starmer as his poodle — have no real interest in peace or resistance to their war machines.
@arielhelwani Sorry but this is such a victim mentality to have. A man looks down on another man, British people end up thinking he's a stuck up twat. In life be humble or maybe people just won't like you??
@Eth_is_garbage@Gordon_CRE Many Sennheiser products are manufactured in China as well as Germany & Ireland. Kinda thought it was obvious by now that most of your favourite companies rely on Chinese supply chains.
@Gordon_CRE Luxury brands literally hid the driving force behind their products. Consumers should know where their products are made& how much it costs because the illusion of grandeur is just manufactured. Is it healthy to be a victim of consumerism that they can't comprehend the reality?
@Gordon_CRE And the volume of manufacturing is also the driving force behind the success of the majority of these Western brands. It doesn't take away from the craftsmanship or the quality of hand crafted products that people have been buying from Chanel, Hermes etc. for years.
