Great debunking Anna Kasparian's deranged conspiracies straight to her face.
She's now blocked me on X.
Thomas Massie took money from billionaires, Iranians, and PACs while implying Trump was a pedophile.
As usual, she had no response other than to yell, interrupt, and insult.

@pip_tar@RheaKarys Does that take courage? Yes plenty of antisemitism historically came from Christianity and Replacement Theory. So what? This article is about the driving forces of antisemitism today, and it’s not in any large part coming from Christianity.
@OyVeyPope I do not support collective blame, but at the same time I do not support beating around the bush. We have to be honest about where the problem is coming from.
This is such a bizarre argument.
First, Jews are not a political monolith and never have been. You are talking about millions of people with differing priorities, ideologies, religious beliefs, economic views, and understandings of security.
Second, the idea that voting patterns somehow invalidate rising antisemitism is absurd. Antisemitism is not magically acceptable because some Jews vote for center-left parties.
And third, you are actually reinforcing part of the article’s argument without realizing it: many Jews remained politically aligned with institutions and movements they believed shared liberal democratic values, only to discover after October 7 how much anti-Jewish extremism had been normalized within parts of those same spaces.
That realization is precisely why political realignments are now happening across parts of the Jewish world.
If you haven’t read and shared this yet, please do. I really think this is one of the most important pieces I’ve written. It’s barely reached 10% of my follower base sadly.
Antisemitism has always been the canary in the coal mine for Western civilization. When societies begin rationalizing hatred toward Jews, it is usually a sign that something far deeper is unraveling beneath the surface.
Lo siento, pero si tu religión permite que las mujeres sean tratadas así, tal vez sea hora de tener una conversación contigo mismo y darte cuenta de que tu religión no es una religión de amor.
¡Es pura maldad!
The idea that Israel simply “stood by and watched” while Palestinians remained trapped in permanent refugee status ignores decades of history.
Israel accepted the 1947 UN partition plan. The Arab world rejected it and launched a war.
Israel made peace with Egypt and returned the entire Sinai Peninsula, territory several times the size of Israel itself, proving land for peace was possible.
Israel signed the Oslo Accords and recognized the PLO.
Israel offered statehood proposals repeatedly:
Camp David in 2000,
Taba in 2001,
Olmert’s offer in 2008.
Each would have created a Palestinian state.
Israel unilaterally withdrew every soldier and settler from Gaza in 2005.
The response was not peaceful coexistence. Hamas took over Gaza and turned it into a launch platform for terrorism and rockets.
Meanwhile the UN system institutionalized perpetual Palestinian refugeehood through UNRWA, uniquely allowing refugee status to be inherited generation after generation forever. No other refugee population on earth operates that way.
The tragedy is that Palestinians deserved leaders focused on building a state alongside Israel.
Instead, for generations, too many leaders and surrounding powers remained more committed to reversing Israel’s existence than peacefully accepting it.
Is Israel perfect? No. No state is. But they are hardly the party you should be pointing the finger at. The Arab world, the UN, and the Palestinians themselves - all have played a much larger role in the perpetuation of Palestinian suffering.
Palestinian students: “With Allah’s help, we will smash the Jews’ heads because they are dogs. I want to be a jihadist and kill Jews for Allah and become a martyr.”
UNRWA has been teaching them to kill Jews for decades.
Flashback: Jordan’s newly elected female lawmaker thanks her Muslim mother for being the perfect role model for Islam’s feminism.
She proudly explains that her mother always cried about her unfulfilled dream: to hide a bomb under her Islamic veil and blow herself up in a crowded Israeli bus or restaurant — killing as many Jews and Christians as possible to provide human sacrifices for Allah and reach paradise.
This is not a joke.
This is mainstream Islamic “feminism” in action.
A Palestinian Muslim mother from Gaza brought her sick son to an Israeli hospital for life-saving treatment.
She openly admits she wants him to survive the disease — not so he can live a normal life, but so he can grow up and blow himself up in a crowded place in Israel, possibly even the same hospital that saved him.
In the video she explains that Allah (the god of Islam) obligates all Muslims to wage jihad and practice martyrdom — human sacrifice. She adds that, unlike Jews or Christians who mourn when their children die, Muslims are happy when their children are martyred in jihad because Allah rewards them with a one-way ticket to paradise.
They use Israeli hospitals to keep their children alive so they can later use those same children as weapons against the very people who saved them.
This is the death cult at the heart of the conflict.
Hamas and the Palestinian leadership do not want their children to live.
They want them to die killing Jews.
The Western media and politicians keep pretending this is about “land” or “occupation.”
The Muslim mother herself just admitted the truth: it is about jihad, martyrdom and the religious obligation to murder non-Muslims.
Share this video. The world must see what they are really teaching their children.
You are correct about one thing: UNRWA was effectively designed to perpetuate the Palestinian refugee issue indefinitely.
The UN uniquely granted Palestinians the ability to pass refugee status down through generations forever. No other refugee population on earth operates that way. Not one.
That is why the number of “Palestinian refugees” continuously grows decade after decade instead of shrinking through resettlement and normalization like every other refugee population in modern history.
But what you are fundamentally wrong about is blaming Israel for propping up UNRWA.
UNRWA is a United Nations organization funded overwhelmingly by the UN system and Western governments. Israel has spent years warning that the organization had become deeply compromised by anti-Israel indoctrination, Hamas infiltration, extremist educational material, and employees linked to terrorism.
In recent years Israel has increasingly moved against UNRWA, not supported it.
The tragic reality is that much of the Arab world, the UN system, and Western political institutions found a permanently stateless Palestinian population politically useful for maintaining pressure against Israel.
That is why the problem was never solved.
