Hate speech fuels hate crimes and undermines global peace and human rights.

It is our commitment to combat hate speech in all forms.

It is our responsibility to promote respect, unity, and tolerance.

Humanity must stand united against the Muslim continuous attempts to annihilate the Jewish minority.

Validating, justifying, accepting, or ignoring the Islamic threat will eventually lead to a catastrophic outcome.

The Qura’anic incitement and provocation against the Jeiwh minority is a real thing. It is not a misinterpretation of the Islamic text! The Jews are mentioned by name dozens of times in the Qur’an as a hated group and the Qur’an is unique in dehumanizing Jews as a justified target to Muslims regardless of reason.

The Jewish nation is the most ancient ethnic minority living among us, survived millennias of countless attempts of ethnic cleansing, from displacement, expelling, slavery, to ethnic cleansing. It is a miracle how this minority managed to survive against so many odds giving the birth to Albert Einstein and a long list of the most brilliant scientists, writers, prophets, artists, and innovators of all time. Their contribution to humanity is overwhelming and all of us owe them a great deal of gratitued.

We must understand that bullying and intimidating an independent ethnic minority in favor a majority of dependent group with minimal contribution to life could be a deadly mistake.

It is concerning to ses Muslims exploiting the global outrage regarding the tragedy of Gaza. A problem Muslims have been developing for centuries!

Now the new expression of Jewish hatred has taken a more clever strategy which has been resonating with anti-war activists, such as anti-zionism or anti-colonialism but at their core they are anti-Jewish
.
Muslims have been demonstrating their freedom to assault a religious minority while escaping their responsibility to condemn Jihadists who ethnically cleansed dozens of peaceful communities based on their religious and ethnic background.

What is happening in Gaza is tragic, and the nation of Israel has been deliberately dragged into an ugly war by Muslims with the intention to delegitimize not only the government of Israel but the Jewish nation.

Hamas and behind them the Muslim world succeded in the past several wars to delegitimize Israel in the global arena and in this war they doubled down on the powerful strategy to gain global sympathy and spread hatred against Jews.

Muslim extremists started the war and moderate Muslims inverted the narrative in a massive assault against the Jewish people, the biggest since the Nazi assault with the help of many Westerners who bought into the Muslim narrative aiming to demonize and dehumanize the Jews, repeating the same strategy as Nazis of the past century which led to the death of tens of millions of people.
Humanity regardless of belief and faith should condemn the dangerous attempt to outcast the Nation of Israel. Because legitimizing the anti-Jewish movement will lead to a global disaster and it looks like the new generation is disconnected from the lessons of the past century not realizing that tens of millions of humans could die as an outcome of this Islamic-Nazi threat.

It is our responsibility to avoid the mistakes of the past, to counter Nazism and fascism before it is too late. What we are witnessing is not a political conflict over land, this is a war between truth and falsehood. The war has already begun and the outcome of it depends on how we manage it. It could be contained or it could go out of control.

What is so-called ��Palestine” is a violent ideology that is spreading like wildfire, it is not a country, race, ethnicity, or nation. This movement is not concerned with the future of Arab or Jewish children, it is a monster that feeds on human suffering.

The Jewish people have coexisted with every civilization, even during their enslavement they continued to contribute to life and didn’t choose vengeance. While the focus of conflicted “Palestinians has been to avenge, conquer, and dominate.

A “Palestine” that depends on the destruction of Israel should not be acceptable, and those who choose to legitimize a delusional ideology at the expense of what IS REAL will cause more suffering and destruction.

In this complicated situation, the majority of humanity has to rebuke and correct the Muslim political ambitions because Muslims simply don’t have the authority to decide who has the right to exist and who doesn’t.

@ninuxch @magdaborowik RIPEMD is not for new designs, and Bitcoin's use of it provides 2**96 keys per addresses. The SHA(PK()) layer is foolhardy.

Ethereum are also failing to deprecate the deprecated function, but only affects older addresses AFAIK

The government of the Maldives has paused a planned ban on Israelis for fear it could affect Arab citizens of Israel.

In so doing, it has revealed its actual intention: to ban Israeli Jews from the Maldives.

This is official antisemitism.
