Proud Israeli.
In my studies, career, and volunteering I have tried to understand how the world works and maybe acquire a bit of wisdom.

My point was that saying someone was "visibly Jewish" is not necessarily antisemitic. Please look at the thread that I was answering.
The women on the right are visibly Christian. That is obvious because they have crosses. Saying so is not anti-Christian.
The woman on the left is visibly fundamentalist. She could be Muslim or Jewish, though very few Jewish women actually dress that way,
However, I said a hijab, not a burka. Women of various religions cover their hair, but a hijab is distinctly Muslim, as the word refers to an obligation in Islam.

[Josh Patt @PattJosh]

@DerpsterFire1 @TheBeanEyesOpen @JewishChron Of course it is religious, and I respect the right of any Muslim woman who wants to to wear one.
My point was that wearing a hijab is "visibly Muslim", in the same way that someone can dress "visibly Jewish". This is a simple observation and is not Islamophobic or antisemitic.

[Josh Patt @PattJosh]

@TheBeanEyesOpen @JewishChron If a women is wearing a Hijab she is visibly Muslim.
Is that Islamaphobia?

[Josh Patt @PattJosh]

Excellent thread.

Es ist diese selbstgefällige Gehässigkeit, das jede Selbstreflexion ausknipsende Mitläufertum, das mich an diesem Selbstbeschäftigungs-Aktionismus am meisten stört.

@SylviaSteinitz Exactly. It's not about actually doing any good, it's just about feeling good.

[Josh Patt @PattJosh]

Exactly. An 7th century warlord behaving like a 7th century warlord is nothing exceptional.
A 21st century state behaving like a 7th century warlord is a problem.

[Dan Burmawi @DanBurmawy]

Don't condemn Muhammad and his companions for waging wars, raiding caravans, marrying children, owning slaves, degrading women, or engaging in brutal violence.

Raiding rival tribes was standard. Child marriage was practiced. Slavery was the norm. Tribal codes, honor killings, conquest, this was the fabric of life in that time and place.

The real problem isn’t what Muhammad did. The real problem is that what he did was declared sacred.

His every action wasn’t just recorded, it was immortalized, canonized and sanctified.

His tribal conduct wasn’t left in the 7th century, it was elevated as timeless law for the entire world.

He didn’t just live in history, he froze history in place and called it religion.

What should have been contextualized as ancient is now institutionalized as eternal.

What should have been buried with time is now resurrected in legal codes, school curriculums, and acts of terror.

[Max Klinger @MaxE2review]

Islamo-leftist propaganda is built on the claim that the majority of the green area - most of which was brutally conquered, overrun, and subjugated by the forces of Islam, involving the eradication, ethnic cleansing, elimination, enslavement and/or conversion of the native and pre-existing populations - is ‘indigenous Muslim land.’ And the atom-sized red area is the oppressive coloniser, which is oppressing a ‘minority group’ (Muslims) who vastly, by a factor of more than 130x, outnumber Jews.

The red land has been continuously inhabited by Jews since well before Islam came into existence, and Jews have been ethnically cleansed from almost the entire area in green, and yet islamo-leftism also posits that it is the Jews who ethnically cleansed the Muslims from the region, despite the fact that there are more Muslims in Israel than there are Jews in the entire rest of the Middle East added together.

In short, it’s complete ahistorical bollocks. And it’s built on the fact that Islamic propagandist and anti-civilisational leftists know that most westerners do not know even the most basic facts about the history of the region, and are likely to fall into line if you shout woke buzzwords at them like ‘coloniser’, ‘oppressor’ and so on.

@diana_bloom_ Like you say, this plan will only work if it's not public knowledge that it's being done.
Arming and training people inside Iran is not easy, but I hope there are people working on it. I am optomistic that something is happening.

جهان نگران اسلام‌هراسی است یا نگران اعدام‌ بیش از ۱۶۰۰ نفر فقط در یک سال زیر سایه حکومت اسلامی؟
من ایرانی‌ام، در ایران زندگی کردم، از گشت ارشاد اسلامی کتک خوردم، زندانی شدم، قوانین عقب مانده‌ی ازدواج و طلاق را زیر شرع اسلام زندگی کردم و برعکس خیلی‌ها که فعلا نگران ترویج اسلام‌هراسی هستند، نگران ایرانم و عادی‌سازی اسلام‌گرایی. حکومت اسلامی باید به زباله دان برود و تروریست‌ها باید از بین بروند نه آنکه اصلاح شوند…

So sick to death of this ridiculous ‘ethnic cleansing’ libel.

The only ethnic cleansing that has occurred in the entire Middle Eastern region is the ethnic cleansing of the Jews… by the Muslims.

In 1939, it wasn't wrong for the Allies to fight Nazi Germany.

In 1941, it wasn't wrong for the United States to fight Imperial Japan.

In 1950, it wasn't wrong for South Korea to fight North Korea's invasion.

In 1967, it wasn't wrong for Israel to fight its attackers.

In 1973, it wasn't wrong for Israel to fight Egypt and Syria.

In 1982, it wasn't wrong for Britain to fight Argentina's invasion of the Falkland Islands.

In 1991, it wasn't wrong for the United States and Kuwait to fight Iraq's invasion.

In 2001, it wasn't wrong for the United States to fight Al Qaeda.

In 2014, it wasn't wrong for the free world to fight ISIS.

In 2022, it wasn't wrong for Ukraine to fight Russia's invasion.

In 2023, it wasn't wrong for Israel to fight Hamas.

And in 2026, it wasn't wrong for Trump to go to war against the Islamic regime.

History doesn't remember those who turned a blind eye or sought to make deals with tyrants. It remembers those who stopped them.

[Josh Patt @PattJosh]

@ArminNavabi There is no peaceful way to get rid of the Islamic Republic regime.
The challenge is how to get the right arms to the people who need them and know how to use them. It's is not simple, but I hope people are working on it.

This is inversion so callous it's hard to believe.

The Holocaust had a survival rate of about 30%. Millions of people disappeared from European cities and towns over several years. Everybody knew because it was happening all around them.

Gaza has a survival rate, despite the worst and most deadly and horrible periods of the war, of 97%.

All the dead Jews were noncombatants. A large percentage of the dead Gazans were combatants.

And the Jews of Europe, even as their millennia-old civilization was being systematically wiped out, wanted nothing from the societies that surrounded them except to be allowed to live in peace.

Gaza's leadership of religious fanatics, meanwhile, wants every last Israeli dead and gone, is willing to fight to the last Gazan to achieve that aim, has said so publicly and worked for decades to blow up every peace attempt -- and even now believes that Gaza's destruction would be a worthwhile sacrifice to lay on the altar of Israel's destruction, because their god told them so.

So Israelis can reasonably believe, given those features of the Gaza war that aren't true about any genocide ever, and were pretty much the opposite of what was happening in the Holocaust, that Gaza's suffering is a bad and painful war, but not remotely a genocide.

But the point of it all, of course, is not to analyze Gaza, but specifically to lump it together with the Holocaust -- to cast the Jews as the new Nazis.

The only reason this person would dare to make such an insanely ahistorical and immoral parallel is because this is the heart of the bigoted propaganda campaign in which he enthusiastically participates: The point of it all is to make the Jews into the Nazis.

A culture that obsessed about Jews being evil and was then shocked by the Holocaust into obsessing about dead Jews as the apotheosis of righteous victimhood is now obsessively engaged in knocking Jews off that moral pedestal they themselves put them on.

That's why they don't care one whit about Hamas massacres of Gazans, about genocidal wars in Syria or Yemen (even when they've funded and armed the sides), about flotilla activists currently held by the Libyans...literally nothing triggers a response except Jews.

They still, even after all these generations, no matter what else is happening in the world or in their own societies, can't stop thinking about Jews.

And as we Jews learned in the 1940s -- the actual, historical 1940s, not the weird fantasies conjured up by these bigots -- a whole society can be in the grip of a callous, destructive bigotry and still believe it is true and righteous.

[Josh Patt @PattJosh]

This is something that nobody talks about.
When people are full of self-pity and hate there is no communal responsibility.
Usually in a real siege situation, food is distributed as fairly as possible. Of course there are some people who will try to steal more for themselves, but the public and the authorities will not accept looting. In Gaza the authorities are leading the looting.

[Josh Levs - host, They Stand Corrected @JoshLevs]

@ADL Thank you for calling this out. SJP is a dangerous, pro-terror hate group. First, it treats anti-Israel lies like "genocide" as truth. Then, it uses those lies to fuel murder. Its entire existence is devoted to inverting reality. https://t.co/7CH4UKL55U

🔥 New footage from Iran:

High school girls film themselves in front of a whiteboard reading “Long Live the King” and “40,000 Killed” while a rap song plays:

“I swear on the blood of my compatriots that we will fight to the end.”
“We raise the Lion and Sun flag.”

Then they tear up portraits of the Supreme Leaders Guide of the Islamic Republic.

Iranian youth show more courage in one heartbeat than all Western leaders combined.

What deal? What negotiation? You cannot bypass 90 million Iranians to make a deal with a handful of Arab-Islamist occupiers.

Stand with these girls. Stand with the Iranian people. End all talks with the regime. NOW @POTUS

Diese hervorragende Dokumentation zeigt schonungslos auf, warum das Hilfswerk UNRWA in seiner aktuellen Form völlig überholt ist. Wir müssen offen über die fragwürdige Praxis der Vererbung des Flüchtlingsstatus von Palästinensern sprechen, da dies den Konflikt nur künstlich über Generationen hinweg verfestigt. Es steht außer Frage, dass wir hier komplett neue Wege gehen müssen, wenn wir eine echte und vor allem langfristige Lösung im Nahen und Mittleren Osten erreichen wollen. Ein Festhalten am Status quo verhindert jeden Fortschritt, denn UNRWA ist ein Teil des Problems und kann kein Teil der Lösung sein.

@Padsky @OTregub Yes, many Irish have their hearts in the right place, I have never doubted that.
The Irish government on the other hand has a habit of chosing the wrong side.
