Hypocrisy.

No one was rewarding Al Qaeda for 9/11.

No one was rewarding ISIS for the Bataclan terror attack or murdering and raping Yazidis.

Yet, too many are rewarding the Palestinians for the October 7th atrocities - mass murdering, executions, burning families alive, rape, kidnapping and other monstrous crimes.

@purplepingers You want to cosplay as a terrorist then you will be treated like a terrorist deal with it.

Wow. Just fucking. Wow.

Thoughts on this guys? I wanna talk to you. Let’s discuss it.

Again, keep it civil.

Anti-Zionist activists who are blinded by their hatred of Israel might find these facts triggering. In addition, the exposure to this thread can be a shocking experience to haters of the Jews as well.

First let's correct these lies about the Hadid family:
1. There is no evidence that the Hadids sheltered any Jews. Hadid is notorious for spreading antisemitic claims and this refugee claim is likely just another one of his many falsehoods.
Please educate yourself and read the following article:

2. The Hadid family's home was not stolen in 1948. Anwar Hadid left Israel for Lebanon during the war because he did not want to live under Israeli rule.

There are many people on social media who tend to demonize the Jewish state and its people by using lies and even blood libels. In many cases these are innocent people who were misled by the false Palestinian narrative. So please if you're reading this right now, retweet the following posts in this thread.

Absolute garbage journalism - there is no genocide occurring so the very premise of the article is completely wrong. Until lazy western media stop using Hamas press releases this rubbish continues

[Andre Damon (WSWS) @Andre__Damon]

The Lancet has just estimated the death toll of the Gaza genocide at 186,000 people or more.

That's nearly 8 percent of Gaza's population.

This is a systematic effort to exterminate the Palestinian people: armed, funded, and led by the US.

Suzi and her 6 month old baby were kicked out of Sydney International Airport tonight and made to stay outside on the street.

It’s 2:24am. She’s German and said that other kids were kicked out of the airport.

Is this the welcome Sydney should give to tourists @ChrisMinnsMP?

[feathers57 @feathers572]

You of all people should know the premise you base your argument on is flawed as there has been absolutely no testing or challenge to the numbers that have all come from Hamas. The so-called Health Ministry is simply a front for Hamas, known as Pallywood

[Julian Burnside @JulianBurnside]

Why are Australian Jews so intractably bent on justifying what Israel is doing to Palestinians? Which of these facts do they deny; 30,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israel; more than half of them were women or children? Do they suggest that children support Hamas?

@harooncx7 @jacksonhinkle This NOT IDF it is an actor this scene is choreographed by HAMAs

[Hussain Abdul-Hussain @hahussain]

A century of conflict, tens of thousands killed, four failing states -- Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Iran -- and three economies in free fall. All of this is to liberate Palestine from the river to the sea and create an independent Palestine. The date of the creation of Palestine is unknown, the conflict is open-ended. Palestine is not a goal, it's a death cult.
Even if Palestine is created, nothing in all of the history of Palestinians suggests that they know how to create and manage a scouts club, let alone a state. Palestine will be another mess, like Lebanon, Syria, Iraq or Gaza.
Enough is enough! The Arabs and Iranians have paid a heavy price for a failing lifestyle called Palestine. As Arab, I say that we MUST lose and surrender, soonest. Successful nations are the ones who know when to lose and when to win. Japan became closest allies with America that struck it with two atomic bombs. Japan hosts US military bases (occupation?) until today. So did Germany, Italy, and South Korea. People die to live in these countries that lost, surrendered, conceded, and became best friends with their past enemies.
Enough is enough! Hamas should surrender. The Palestinian Authority should be disbanded, all its leaders should retire. Erdogan should told that 30 years in power has gotten to his head, made him crazy. Qatar's insecurity of "look at me," promoting death and destruction, should come to its end. Iran mullahs should go back to mosques, lead the believers in prayers only, and let Iranians who know how to run governments take over and put an end to a regime that's delusional, messianic, and crazy.
Palestinians should settle for local councils of self government, at most, and enjoy having Israel offer them a great economy to benefit from and a good infrastructure. Gaza only lost electricity 40 days ago. Wealthy Baghdad spent its sweltering summer without electricity. Impoverished Lebanon produced 13 percent of its electricity need at best, and that's only thanks to Iraqi oil gifts.
Enough is enough! Enough with Palestine! Enough indigenous! Enough with imagined colonialism! Live and let live. Make immediate and unconditional peace with Israel now, and by now I mean yesterday.

How many Arabs lived in “Palestine” before the establishment of the State of Israel 🇮🇱?

A thread 🧵 with historical sources:

🔸In 1785, Constantine Francois Volney describes the "ruined" and "desolate" state of the country: "We with difficulty recognized Jerusalem... The population is supposed to amount to twelve to fourteen thousands..."

🔸In 1843, Alexander Keith wrote that "in this [Volney's] day the land had not fully reached its last prophetic degree of desolation and depopulation."

🔸In 1816, J.S. Buckingham had described Jaffa as "a poor village", and Ramleh as a place "where, as throughout the greater portion of Palestine, the ruined portion seemed more extensive than that which was inhabited."

🔸In 1835, Alphonse de Lamartine gave this description: "Outside gates of Jerusalem, we saw indeed no living object, heard no living sound. We found the same void, the same silence as we should have found in the enrombed gates of Pompeii and Herculaneum... a complete, eternal silence resigns in the town, in the highways, in the country... The tomb of a whole people."

🔸In 1857, the British consul in Palestine, James Finn, reported back to England: "The country is in a considerable degree empty of inhabitants and therefore its greatest need is that of a body of population."

🔸In 1867, Mark Twain wrote in The Innocents Abroad: "Stirring senses... occur in this valley no more. There is not a solitary village throughout its whole extent – not for thirty miles in either direction." He goes on to describe Galilee, Judea, and around Jerusalem as deserts devoid of population. And for the country as a whole: "Palestine sits in sackcloth and ashes. Over it broods the spell of a curse that has withered its fields and fettered its energies... Palestine is desolate and unlovely... It is hopeless, dreary, heartbroken land."

🔸In 1881 (the year designated by Arafat as the beginning of the Zionist "invasion" and "displacement" of the local population), English cartographer Arthur Penrhyn Stanley wrote: "In Judea it is hardly an exaggeration to say that for miles and miles there was no appearance of life or habitation."

🔸By the third quarter of the 19th century, the total population of the entire country, Arabs and Jews, was only 400,000. Less than 3% of today's figure.

"I was born at the heart of Hamas leadership and I know them very well. They don't care for the Palestinian people. They are using the Palestinian cause only to achieve their goals, transforming the Middle East and the world into an Islamic state."

[Hussain Abdul-Hussain @hahussain]

I went on a major Arab network late last night. The anchor asked this as a matter of fact: Why did #Israel hit #AlAhliHospital in Gaza? I answered: I haven't yet seen evidence proving that Israel did it. However, even if it were Israel, Biden tomorrow will double down on America's support of Israel because the US, UK, Germany, France and Italy have -- after October 7 -- said in a joint statement that #Hamas is terrorist, Israel should take it out, after which the world would sponsor resumption of peace talks. I said this war was one way for Israel, there was no going back to October 6 (ceasefire with Hamas) because Israel has discovered that a fence is not enough to keep Israelis safe from Hamas's crazy outbursts that might kill 1,300 Israelis in the future.
An Egyptian guest on the show went bonkers over me not being certain that Israel hit Gaza hospital, questioning my motives and agenda. He then thrashed my argument that Biden would continue to support Israel, said Arab countries cancelling the summit with him in Jordan taught him a lesson, and that tomorrow in Israel he would walk back his support of Israel. If he did not, America risked one large flame engulfing the region. Hezbollah would enter the war, Iran, and also nuclear Russia. The world would explode, and hence after the hospital attack, Biden would backtrack and force Israel to stop the war.
Today, Israel presented evidence that the hospital blast was not an Israeli attack but an errant Palestinian rocket. Using their own ways and sources, half a dozen Western intel agencies came to the same conclusion. Biden visited Israel and reiterated his full support of taking out Hamas, saying even ISIS was more rational than Hamas. Western media, for its part, burnt its fingers when it first endorsed the Palestinian unfounded claim that Israel struck the hospital. Western media later walked back its reporting. Today, even The Washington Muslim Brotherhood Post did not call it an attack, only a blast. The only group on planet earth that is still living in its own lala land and believing an unfounded rumor that it had put out, without offering any evidence (not even pictures of hospital rubble), has been the Arab World, all of it-- governments, populations and media. It seems that Arabs think that if we keep on saying it, and shame any Arabic speaker for not supporting our claim, it'll become true.
It's been 11 days. My line of argument on Arabic media has been to explain things and not succumb to the wishful thinking that many Arabs are trafficking in. According to wishful thinking, the world would force Israel to call off decimating Hamas, or even better, Israel would just disappear. In reality, Hamas will be decimated, and the Arabs will only come around, half heartedly, because reality will leave them behind. This insistence on living in fairytales, detached from global reality, has cost the Palestinians everything over the past 75 years. Arabs have been crying victim for 75 years hoping that would shame the world, always thinking that global opinion is changing in Arab favor, often citing deranged Western intellectuals or antisemites and perceiving them as an expanding mainstream opinion.
Palestinians deserve better. The faster we in the Arab world come to terms with reality, the shorter Palestinian misery will be. I know that reality might not accord with wishful thinking and emotions, but the cost of living in fantasy world has brought us here. Let's try reality and see where it takes us.

[Aviva Klompas @AvivaKlompas]

To the feminists: Hamas ripped open a pregnant Israeli woman’s stomach, killed the fetus and then killed the mother. Hamas raped women and girls, mutilated their bodies, and then shot them. Hamas is holding 200 civilians captive – mostly girls and women – and doing God knows what to them.

If you can’t find your voice in this moment to denounce Hamas, you have failed and shame on you.

[Israel Defense Forces @IDF]

A failed rocket launch by the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization hit the Al Ahli hospital in Gaza City.

[feathers57 @feathers572]

Yep that’s about it. the utter laziness of the western media globally can be blamed entirely on Murdoch when he got rid of all the respected journalist in both Britain the US & Australia. What we have left are hacks that don’t know how to do the fact checking.

[Ben Shapiro @benshapiro]

So, just to be clear about this, Palestinian terrorists tried to fire a rocket at Israel, it fell short and hit a hospital killing hundreds of Palestinian Arabs, Hamas claimed that it was Israel...and the media immediately ran with Hamas' story. Sounds about right.
