@Arsenal_161 What exactly is anti facist or anti racist about supporting genocidal Islamic terrorists?

@GoonerFanzine @Boodlepim No contest - option 3

[Yoni Leviatan @songsofyoni]

The two-state solution already died three times:

1. In 2000 when Arafat rejected a state on 95% of the West Bank with equivalent land swaps for the other 5%, 100% of Gaza and a capital in East Jerusalem.

2. In 2008 when Abbas again rejected a state on even better terms.

3. On October 7.

The first two instances were because the offers of a Palestinian state by Israeli prime ministers Barak and Olmert, respectively, didn't include a right of return for five million Palestinians to live, not in a new Palestinian state, but in the existing state of Israel and destroy the world's only Jewish state.

And the last instance because Israelis saw what the "right of return" they insisted on would look like in practice.

What Hamas stands for - according to its own charter and official statements:

- Total destruction of the State of Israel (Article 13 of the charter)

- Extermination of Jews, citing Islamist antisemitic hadiths (Article 7)

- Absolute rejection of any peace or negotiation with Israel (Article 13)

- Imposition of Sharia as the only system of government (Article 11)

- Use of jihad and terrorism as primary methods of action

- Indoctrination and recruitment of children for hatred and martyrdom

- Brutal repression of political opponents in Gaza, including executions and torture

- Brutal treatment of homosexuals, including imprisonment and execution

- Oppression of women: forced veiling, restrictive laws, executions for adultery

- Persecution of Christians and other non-Muslim minorities in Gaza

- Use of human shields in combat and for terrorist infrastructure

- Misappropriation of humanitarian aid to fund terrorism and weapons

- Suppression of individual freedoms: censorship, press control, banning of non-Islamic celebrations

These actions and policies, as documented in Hamas’s own texts and behavior, confirm its terrorist nature.

Hamas has never sought peace. And anyone who supports Hamas knows perfectly well that its goal is to kill Jews and destroy the only Jewish state.

In 1986, the "Rent-a-Friend" VHS was released for lonely people with VCRs. The 42-minute direct-to-video program featured a friendly man named "Sam" (played by Ben Hollis) who looked directly into the camera, asked the viewer questions, left space for answers, and offered compliments to create the illusion of companionship.

It was sold through mail-order ads in the back of magazines and some video stores, priced around $19.95.

@kingstontoon @elliemolloson How patronising. She is already into sports. That’s why she might have enjoyed it.

@MaxRadwan Easy to forget we are missing our two best and most experienced defensive players (not to mention leaders)

Growing up, @amnesty for me were people who advocated for the release of hostages.

It's what made them famous.

Today..they have not uttered a word.

What a pathetic downfall for a once great organisation.

October 7, 2023 Was the End of Palestinianism, Not the Beginning.

For 25 years, I fought to steer Palestinians from victimhood to peace, working relentlessly to halt suicide bombings and revive the peace process. I pleaded with my father, a Hamas co-founder, to choose reconciliation, but my calls were drowned out by cries for revenge. With my life in danger, I fled to the United States, writing Son of Hamas, From Hamas to America, and The Last Prophet. I stood before parliaments, UN halls, and universities, urging: the Palestinian pursuit to erase Israel is a dead end; stop weaponizing civilians; end the victim narrative. I raised critical questions about their illegitimate mission to delegitimize Israel. No one listened.

They barreled toward October 7—a day I foresaw, with Hamas and the Palestinian Authority banking on every Gazan death to vilify Israel on social media. Hours after their barbaric, unforgivable attack, the Palestinian cause lost any shred of legitimacy. Realizing this, I had no choice but to reappear in the media, my first public words in years: evacuate civilians now. Egypt, UN—move. Silence followed. The radical left and hateful factions labeled me a traitor, genocidal, for calling out the Palestinians’ self-inflicted catastrophe—a failure rooted in their obsession with destroying Israel. October 7 wasn’t the start; it was the final chapter of a long, violent saga.

Emotionally swayed Westerners, duped by hateful propaganda, took Hamas’s bait, blind to 77 years of exploiting civilians for political and financial gain, never questioning their leaders’ twisted game. They misread my plea for humanitarian evacuation as ethnic cleansing and my efforts to challenge Palestinian barbarism as treason, all while denying Israel’s right to exist and cheering global intifadas over saving civilians trapped as human shields by those who reject peace.

Evacuate—save the children, dismantle the terror hub, rebuild on ground free of victimhood. Those who ignored my decades of warnings, who glorified “resistance,” now accuse me of hate, parroting the Muslim Brotherhood’s venom against Jews: demonize Israel, embrace the propaganda, abandon the kids. I don’t need validation—just know this: I warned you before Hamas rose to power, before the first rocket, before the livestreamed horrors, leaving Gaza’s children at the mercy of self-proclaimed leaders who gambled away an entire generation’s future.

Hateful hypocrites shout me down to keep their martyr tally high and the terror breeding ground alive. Without evacuation, Palestinian terrorism will persist. If they can’t destroy Israel, they’ll turn their guns on each other, fueled by the world’s endless rewards, and another century of bloodshed looms. With evacuation, tomorrow’s terrorists lose their breeding ground and victim factory. The Palestinian false identity, false narrative, and false cause must end. Arabs who choose to stay have no choice but to live peacefully with Israel, building and prospering together. Betting on Palestinian statehood at the expense of Israel’s existence won’t bring peace—it will fuel endless wars.

You’ve been warned—choose the next century wisely.

⚠️ WATCH:
The IDF and Shin Bet uncovered a 1.5 km Hamas tunnel near the Jordanian hospital in Gaza City. Inside: a weapons-production lathe, command rooms, and spaces used by Hamas officers. Another shaft was found under Hamad Hospital.

Why hasn't a single journalist in Gaza investigated where the Israeli hostages are being held?
