Mario is absolutely right, there is a clear distinction between the small religious sects that oppose Zionism and the vast majority of the Jewish population worldwide.
A tiny ultra-Orthodox minority - most notably groups like Neturei Karta and Satmar, places strict theological adherence above contemporary common international law.
According to their interpretation of the Tora: Ending the diaspora through human political action is forbidden.
In their belief system, a Jewish state can only be legitimately established upon the arrival of the Messiah and the restoration of the Temple on the Temple Mount (Bait al-Maqdis in Arabic), the current site of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock.
These groups represent a very small fringe.
However, mainstream Jewish and Israeli consensus aligns instead with the core tenet of Zionism: the principle that the Jewish people, like any other nation, possess the basic right to self-determination in their ancestral homeland.
From this perspective, denying the Jewish people the right to national self-determination- while affirming it for all other groups - crosses the line from political critique into double standards and prejudice: Anti-Zionism is pure racism. It has nothing to do with Judaism and religion. It is simply Racism.
Gad Saad belongs to the final community of Jews who were ethnically cleansed out of Lebanon in the 1980s.
This is factual.
It's an historical event that happened.
Mehdi Hasan is not stupid or ignorant. He just doesn't give a damn when it's muslims committing atrocities.
The Great Gaza Scam; Just Listen to Hamas: What you’re seeing in this video is the plain truth, even though it’s coming from slain Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh. I was directly involved in one of the efforts he’s indirectly referring to. This is a confession from a jihadist organization responsible for immense harm, acknowledging that Gaza’s blockade & conditions were not because Israel was hell‑bent on blocking development. Israel became the lazy, convenient explanation & excuse for people unwilling to look beneath the surface and understand what actually happened in Gaza over the last twenty years.
Here, the head of Hamas admits there were real offers on the table: an airport, a seaport, new industries, major cash infusions – opportunities dating back to 2014. Former Israeli officials like Shaul Mofaz floated plans to raise tens of billions for Gaza’s development, and large parts of Israel’s security establishment were open to letting Gaza grow and prosper. Qatar, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Western governments were prepared to invest serious money, far beyond just humanitarian aid.
In 2015, I launched a multi‑year effort to build an internationally run, Israeli‑approved airport in al‑Mawasi, southern Gaza Strip. The proposal drew intrigue from senior Israeli officials, including Herzi Halevi and Avigdor Lieberman. In 2017, through intermediaries, I even appealed directly to Yahya Sinwar, Hamas’s former chief and architect of October 7, urging him to consider the airport proposal and think strategically about Gaza’s future.
So, what was the price that Israel and the world wanted in exchange for all of this?
As Haniyeh states in this video, the price was Gaza’s disarmament and demilitarization so that it wouldn’t be dragged into endless, self‑destructive wars. Hamas was offered a dignified off‑ramp: integrating its employees and former fighters into civilian police, receiving salaries, and shifting toward nation‑building instead of terrorism. That offer was real, with a political pathway for the group.
After October 7, and Gaza’s vast destruction, tens of thousands killed, and $ billions wasted, Hamas is forcibly entertaining disarmament and demilitarization. This video exposes the “resistance” cheerleaders who celebrated October 7 and the Westerners who insist Gaza could never have developed because of Israel. Listen to Hamas; whether you support them or think they are useful idiots, Gaza’s development was blocked because the terror Islamist group turned the territory into a fortress of violence, tunnels, rockets, smuggling, and radicalization. And no, Gaza and the West Bank are not comparable cases. Gaza had a genuine chance to become the crown jewel of the Palestinian people, a truly compelling model of prosperity and self‑rule.
The pathway forward requires introspection, accountability, responsibility, and Palestinian agency.
In Lebanon, a Shia Muslim mother celebrates the death of her son, a Hezbollah terrorist.
“I worked all my life to see my son dead in a coffin as a martyr.”
She then tells her grandson, a toddler, that he should also die for Allah like his dad.
It’s a literal death cult.
I checked with Grok, I was s astonished.
It's true.
They desperately want to blame a white Christian person, not an Arab-Muslim, presumably because that would be Islamophobic.
Since yesterday, people keep asking me the same question: How can someone be hanged for opening a door?
I want you to see the answer with your own eyes.
Two Iranian protesters. Both killed in front of cameras for showing compassion.
One opened a door when protesters came running security forces right behind them, armed. He let them in. Then he pushed against that same door with everything he had, trying to keep the security forces out. They forced it open. And they killed him right there.
The other had a wounded protester on his shoulder, carrying him through the streets to safety. That was enough.
Empty hands. No weapons. Just human beings doing what human beings do, protecting each other.
The Islamic Republic calls this a crime worthy of death.
That is the Iran the world needs to see. The Islamic republic is terrorist not the people of Iran.

A Muslim asks a Christian about the Crusades in the Middle Ages.
“Before the Crusades, Islam had already invaded the Christian lands of Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Algeria, Libya, Morocco, Spain, Portugal, Turkey. And was trying to conquer Europe.”
Another Muslim asks about the European slave trade.
“The Islamic slave trade had existed for centuries before the European slave trade, from both Africa and Europe. And it never really ended.
Your own prophet Muhammad was a slave trader.”
