@TeeBallTTU@minervarises@RSchottenfeld@ZaidJilani Apartheid has a clear definition, sir. No, it's not tied to population. But let me help you w/the distinction: black people couldn't VOTE in South Africa during apartheid. Israel has Muslim (not just Arab) members of parliament, Supreme Court, high ranking police, military....
The far left sees October 7thโthe deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaustโnot as an occasion to mourn the 1,200 Israelis murdered in an act of terror but as an occasion to romanticize the mass murder of Jews as โresistance.โ
The inevitable consequence of glorifying political violence is political violence itself. That is the dangerous direction in which American politics seems to be heading.
Some numbers tell a dispositive story.
1939: 40 million Arabs in the world.
2026: 450 million Arabs in the world
1939: 17 million Jews in the world.
2026: 16 million Jews in the world
1939: 4 sovereign Arab states
2026: 22 sovereign Arab states
1939: 0 sovereign Jewish states.
2026: 1 sovereign Jewish state

@AnaKasparian War they started by targeting civilians & children & elderly = genocide i guess because they're losing? And it's more like they would massacre everyone on stage and in the crowd than "they don't do pride parades."
@NicholasCraven_ They never endorsed Trump, dipshit. & you riding for some untalented kid attaching himself to the legacy of legends without permission or respect shows your character.
The Talmud teaches that anyone who sustains one soul, has sustained an entire world. For generations, Jewish New Yorkers have sustained our city. Today, we are launching the first-ever municipal Strategy to Combat Antisemitism.
Together, we will ensure Jewish New Yorkers are safe and celebrated. We will invest in their protection, their history, and their future.
Our safety and our thriving are tied together.
