@EYakoby Interesting smear. Would he care to show us his proof in writing? He’s an erudite guy, an anthropologist. Surely he can produce the evidence.
Yes, Hitler did apparently learn about Jim Crow and based their (the American South’s) exclusion of Jews along these lines in Germany.
@Shoshana51728 “Better still, they could explain why Jewish national self-determination is treated as inherently suspect while Britain's centuries-old religious establishment is waved away as charming tradition.”
FACTS
Many supporting the false narrative that Jews / Zionists stole Palestinian land may wish to read The Land Question in Palestine by Kenneth W. Stein .
Through diligent and meticulously researching and identifying land transfer documentation from a number of historical legal , and thankfully still maintained sources , Arab , Jew , Palestinian , Zionist and British , Stein has listed numerous land sales from Arabs to Jews prior to the re-establishment of the State of Israel in 1948.
To a political researcher such as myself it is unsurprising how many Arabs yelled foul at the false narrative of a Zionist land grab whilst duplicitously selling at overinflated prices to those very same Zionists they were accusing of land theft .
Both Churchill in several speeches and the Arabs themselves in recorded testimony under oath to various commissions notably the Hope Simpson and Peel Commissions stated that no Arab Palestinian land had been stolen but all legally acquired.
As just one glaring example appendix 3 of the book which exposes numerous such legally documented land sales is as follows.
Name of seller - Abu Hantash Abd al - Latif Position / status / short biography - Village shaykh at Qaqun ; participated in attacks on Jews at the Hadera massacre in 1921 ; helped to organise the Farmers Party in 1924 and organised opposition to Jewish purchase of Wadi Qabbani in the 1930’s.
Land sales - sold 821 dunams at Qaqun in 1925 for £P 2,564 in the Tulkarm sub district .
( one dunam is 0.247 acres )
Name of seller - Basiso Khalil Yusuf
Position / status - Member of the Arab Executive, elected to 7th Gaza Congress Land sales - April 1942 sold 472 dunams to the Jewish National Fund in Gaza for £P 1200.00 ( ref ISA , box 3874/ file 7 Schedule for April 1942) Second update Listed at the end of the post , the lands sold by the Sarsouk family ( from Lebanon I believe) to Zionist organisations alluded to by the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem under oath to Sir Laurie Hammond during the 1937 Peel Commission enquiry.
Further evidence of Arab land legally acquired
Name of seller - Al Alami Musa

Netanyahu responds to Obama:
The other day, I heard a regrettable statement. It talked about Israel stealing land, Israel losing the moral high ground. Well, let me respond to that.
The Jewish people are not foreign occupiers in the land of our forefathers. Our history is not a colonial enterprise. Our land is not stolen land. This is our homeland. It's called Judea.
We're not the Dutch in Indonesia. We're not the Belgians in the Congo. We're Jews in Judea.
@Nadav_Eyal Hamas, whatever else it is, is not a country.
It is committed to the genocide of Israel, and of Jews: so stated in its charter.
Any such entity / has gone there, is hellacious problematic. At the very least Hamas has to commit to renouncing genocide.
@Strider1284323@MOSSADil Very decent questions that need addressing.
And speaking of Israel, can someone tell MTG that defending Israel is hugely expensive. Imagine your neighborhood (and beyond) is committed to your destruction. How much would you need and why, in G-D’s name,
Oiy vay. Of course, there are insane lunatics in every group, but if you ask a thousand muslims at random, "do you have any good reasons to kill jewish children?" you will probably get dozens of different "good" reasons. If you ask a thousand jews at random, "do you have any good reasons to kill muslim children?" you won't get any reasons at all, good, bad, or indifferent. WE ARE NOT THE SAME.
Obama also criticized Hamas: "What they did on October 7, you could not have designed something that was less likely to produce meaningful change."
This is a strange way to talk about the massacre, rape, and kidnapping of innocents.
October 7th was not a failed strategy to produce peace. It accomplished Hamas's goal: murdering Jews.
I am liberal. That is what makes it so disturbing to see leaders from the Democratic Party spread false narratives that harm Jews.
Americans are finally showing concern about government corruption. To all journalists who have been investigating and exposing this corruption, thank you.
🇵🇸 ¿Recuerdan el Hospital Europeo en Khan Younis el pasado mayo?
Israel atacó un objetivo específico allí, y el mundo se indignó.
Los palestinos negaron la existencia de un túnel subterráneo. La ONU y los gobiernos europeos se apresuraron a condenar a Israel por atacar un "hospital". Indignación, titulares, acusaciones de crímenes de guerra… el guion habitual.
Luego llegó junio.
Las Fuerzas de Defensa de Israel (FDI) llevaron a los medios internacionales al mismo lugar y les mostraron el túnel… un centro de mando completo de Hamás, justo debajo de la sala de urgencias.
Armas, habitaciones, infraestructura. Y sí, allí encontraron y confirmaron el cuerpo de Mohammed Sinwar, el máximo comandante militar de Hamás y hermano de Yahya Sinwar.
El ataque que acabó con la vida de uno de los artífices del 7 de octubre fue quirúrgicamente preciso y totalmente justificado.
Según los Convenios de Ginebra de 1949, los hospitales y otras instalaciones médicas pierden su estatus de protección cuando se utilizan con fines militares, como centros de mando, depósitos de armas o transporte de tropas. Al convertir deliberadamente el Hospital Europeo en una base de Hamás, los propios terroristas lo despojaron de toda protección legal.
Ni una sola disculpa por parte de la ONU ni de los gobiernos europeos que se apresuraron a condenar a Israel. Ni una sola admisión de su error. Simplemente pasaron a la siguiente ronda de acusaciones.
Este es el patrón. Hamás oculta su infraestructura terrorista bajo instalaciones civiles, utiliza hospitales como escudos, y la comunidad internacional ataca sistemáticamente al defensor por responder, solo para demostrar una y otra vez que está equivocado cuando surgen las pruebas.
¿Cuántas veces tiene que suceder esto antes de que el mundo deje de caer en la trampa?

@ThomTillis Your guy, respectfully, is insane.
The Lindsey Graham Sanctions Law was just passed.
Show courage. You are an American first. Aren’t we all?
Ditch the politicization, already. That’s all y’all’s have reduced yourselves to.
What’s wrong with our Constitution? Rule of Law? Eisenhower? Decency? Integrity?
We have so much going for us and we are on the verge of losing it all. Please. Stand. Up. The time is now.
