@Aizenberg55@HenMazzig@mehdirhasan Funny enough, Hamas actually said that Gaza was not occupied.
So it’s impossible to make the case that even Hamas thought that Gaza was occupied…https://t.co/TSxK0PdGPN
Three reasons.
1) El-Sayed attacked Obama.
2) The whole “Muslims are the real victims” act is seen as appropriating and supplanting the historical black struggle.
3) Blacks tend to be working class and Christian. The DSA is a movement built on rich kids and Islamists.
@mehdirhasan As a typical antisemite, you blame AIPAC and the Jews for everything.
Including fielding a terrible candidate for senate, who hasn’t paid his taxes and has family ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.
Greenwald arguing that Hamas had a right to target “Israelis” on October 7 (he says “especially” military targets but quite clearly doesn’t draw a bright line on targeting civilians like those at the Nova Festival) is a pretty good reminder that much of the left-wing pro-Palestinian activist community is actually pro-Hamas and openly defends and celebrates the murder of Israeli civilians.
For a guy who complained after OBL’s murder that US troops didn’t give him a chance to surrender - and who used to constantly invoke international law - to basically endorse the targeting and murder of civilians is disgusting …. but not remotely surprising.
@ggreenwald@RoKhanna@jeremyscahill The fact that you’re here defending Scahill for saying Hamas has a right to kill any Israeli soldier they want, speaks volumes about you..
Not to mention that Hamas didn’t actually target soldiers on 10/07…

@ceilingscrack@mehdirhasan If I tried to violently breach the border with Canada, I would be shot.
That doesn’t mean Canada is occupying American territory. It means Canada is enforcing its border.
@peezus00@mehdirhasan According to Hamas, Gaza was not occupied.
So according to Hamas’ own admission, Hamas had no right to target anyone. https://t.co/TSxK0PdGPN

@ceilingscrack@mehdirhasan Scahill was ranting like a lunatic.
Firstly, Hamas admitted that they do not think Gaza was occupied. So by their own admission, they have no right to target anyone.
Just because someone claims to be occupied, it doesn’t give them the right to kill. https://t.co/TSxK0PdGPN
We graciously allow a foreigner to come here as a student. That student turns out to be an anti-American pro-terrorist Western civilization-hating bigot and activist. And now he gets to stay here forever. Suicidal.
