You are missing the point on purpose because the reality is indefensible. You talk about dead bodies because you can't talk about the ideology that outlived them. That's not a "metaphor", but a direct and documented poli

That is one of the most grotesque whitewashes of Zionist terrorism I have ever read. You are trying to rewrite a story of Zionist terrorism and colonial succession into a heartwarming family drama. The idea that Zionists were just a colony

The expected Zionist modus operandi, whitewash Zionist crimes, then blame the victim for responding. Your "socialist" argument is a weak attempt to hide behind a political label. It doesn't matter what they called themselves.

That is a disgustingly cynical and dishonest argument, a masterclass in colonial propaganda. You demand the people being crushed under a boot "take responsibility," while giving a pass to Zionists who have all the power and are th

>The terrorist attack of 2023 had such magnitude that Israel was allowed to do 50 times worse with no immediate punishment, but this pretence is getting old and they're in too deep Huh? Israel is literally founded upon "Jewish-

>That would be the first genocide that involves terrorism, hostages and human shields at the same time. No it wouldn't be, you're just spewing lazy Zionist propaganda. "Jewish-Zionist Terrorism and the establishment of Isr

You're presenting the standard Zionist narrative, a sanitized version of history that conveniently omits the actual ideology at play. Your entire argument is built to portray a European colonial project as a desperate search for "

I appreciate it, but I'm merely a student of the wonderful work produced by other scholars and educators. All the praise belongs to them, it's their knowledge and work that I've tried to present as I've learned it.

>I agree with most of what you said, except that I don’t think there is anything noble about Hamas. They have a cause but their methods are despicable and stupid. Let’s just entertain the idea that they would have strictly targeted only

>I think on a deeper level the Hamas attack was an Iranian proxy attack and to them, bargaining chips and hostages are just details. They play a dirty game. That is such a shallow understanding of someone for whom the whole region is jus

No, normal people understand very well that they are. They are the children of Palestinians who were murdered or ethnically-cleansed in the Nakba and then locked up in an open-air prison. They are the resistance to zionist-colonialism. You

>The question of whether you can find third-hand (or even first-hand) accounts of Zionists saying or doing bad things doesn’t really have any bearing on the question of to what extent Jews faced persecution, or to what extent that persec

>Ben-Gurion himself was witness to pogroms in Poland. Does one need to be murdered or violently attacked to "suffer antisemitism"? Poor old Ben-Gurion, he "suffered so much from antisemitism" in europe that it turned

They were so "traumatized" that they became racist and supremacist? "The British told us that there are some hundred thousand negroes [kushim in Hebrew] and for those there is no value." - Weizmann, quoted by Arthur Rupp

You're conveniently imposing your misreading on that quote since it's clearly talking about the experiences of _those Zionists living in Palestine_ around 1900. David Ben-Gurion was the founder of Israel and its first Prime Minist

that seems to be the abridged version, the exact quote I found says: "They are nearly all good-hearted, and are easily befriended. One might say that they are like big children." David Ben-Gurion in Igrot (Letters), Tel Aviv: Am O

"It was a calling, never a job." - This is so heart-warming to read, in a world where the lust for more and more money seems to be so depressingly high at times.
