The same people who call anyone who voted for Trump a Nazi are now lining up to defend an *actual Nazi* who proudly sported a tattoo of concentration camp guards for 18 years until he ran for office. And they have the audacity to pretend anything Trump did comes close to that.

The Islamic regime needs to remember they are not untouchable.

BREAKING:
A 21-year-old man from Saudi Arabia has shot a lecturer at Surrey University with a crossbow.
The lecturer suffered life-threatening injuries. It’s unclear whether the lecturer was handcuffed before being taken to hospital 🇬🇧🇸🇦
Let me see if I can help: When Hezbollah stops firing missiles and drones into Israel, at the direction of the Iranian regime, Israel will stop fighting back. Every damn time since its founding, when Israel goes on the offensive to take out some grave threat, we pull her back. We would never, ever put up with this, nor should they. Deal or no deal.
Bro, let’s stop pretending.
Muslims make up about 25% of the entire world’s population — over 2 billion people across 50+ countries.
Japanese people? About 1.4% of the world. One single country.
Shinto exists only in Japan.
So when people say “Japan should prioritize minorities and be more accommodating to Islam,” who exactly are we talking about?
The global majority is coming to one of the world’s smallest ethnic and religious groups and demanding that Japan change its culture, food, and traditions for them.
That’s not “protecting minorities.” That’s the majority trying to colonize a tiny minority.
Japan has every right to protect its own people and culture first.
If Muslims want to live under Islamic rules, they already have dozens of countries where they can do that. They don’t need to come to Japan and turn it into another one.
Today marks the 37th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre, when the Communist regime sent tanks to trample peaceful pro-democracy protesters. Their bravery will not be forgotten, including the man who stopped a column of tanks.
“Since that June day, I have been inspired by one of the most iconic figures of the latter half of the 20th century, even though I have no idea of his name. Like the rest of the world, I just call him Tank Man.” @yangjianli001
In high school in Israel, you have the option to study third language - French or Arabic.
All my friends wanted to go to France after the army, so they studied French.
I am the only one that studied Arabic. Now I'm the only one who can go to France.

The same Taliban that murders Christians.
Yet she will tell you how much she cares about Christians. 🤡

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.
