Glenn Greenwald
@ggreenwald · High-reach critics & hostile narrative — US/West
Glenn Greenwald is an independent journalist and a persistent critic of Israel and US support for it.
Members of the US Congress openly admit that their prority is Israel, but then when you notice and object, you hear: Stop being obsessed with Israel. Leave the bipartisan AIPAC Congress alone! https://t.co/uKlsHTy4gx
Literally every day, members of the "US Congress" work to protect Israel, serve Israel, punish those who act against Israel, send Americans' money to Israel. Then, when people notice and object to this, they're told: YOU are obsessed with Israel, rather than these people:👇
Because US military bases in the Middle East are located in dictatorships -- meaning the US's closest allies -- reporting on the massive damage Iran has inflicted on US bases has been suppressed. But enough has emerged to get a sense of how widespread and severe the damage is:
In light of the revelations about the multiple advance notices Netanyahu received about Hamas planning a major attack on Israel shortly before Oct. 7, it's worth re-visiting the question Charlie Kirk asked, one to which no answer has ever been provided: https://t.co/jTsWov70Br
Here's the Governor of Arkansas with nothing better to do than threaten companies in order to defend Israel, which isn't part of her state or even her country. US politicians serve Israel like this all day, but if you notice, YOU are accused of being "obseessed with Israel."
Here is what Randy Fine (R-Tel Aviv) just said that he was willing and eager to lose for Florida citizens in order to protect Israel and punish the UK, in case anyone is confused about his loyalties: https://t.co/nuWz0Vd86y
This "US Congressman" vows vengeance against British companies for boycotting products from Israeli occupying the West Bank, announcing: "Any company — or nation — that boycotts Israel is boycotted by Florida." Why would Florida sacrifice its business interests and those of its citizen to benefit Israel? We all know why.
This was all done by the candidate for House Speaker whom AOC supports: Hakeem Jeffries, one of the most loyal foot soldiers for AIPAC, Israel and endless war in all of Washington. This is the Democratic Party:
One more time: the greatest threat to free speech in the West, by far, is Israel and its western loyalists attempting to use all weapons to criminalize, banish and punish criticisms of Israel by pretending that it's anti-Semitic.
The @ADL (which once claimed to be a civil liberties organization) is now reduced to policing and denouncing the speech of musical artists about Israel. That they have to resort to such desperate tactics shows what a fraud is the supposed "anti-Semitism epidemic."
One of the funniest things is how it was a consensus among the American Right that Fetterman was brain dead, barely incapable of functioning more than Joe Biden. Then he started defending Israel and many proclaimed him instantly cured, neurologically sound, of great intellect.
It's not enough for these people that Vance pledge allegiance to Israel, as he basically did this week at the Republican Jewish Conference. He's also not allowed to have any personal interactions with people who refuse, including long-time friends like Tucker Carlson. He must denounce his own friends for Israel. This, as Charlie Kirk explained, were the demands they also made on him shortly before his murder, and when he refused to obey, what Charlie called "Jewish billionaires" pulled massive amounts of funding as punishment from Turning Point (which, after Charlie's death, is now fully in line with those orders about who they can and cannot platform).
Ben Shapiro doesn't need to talk much about Israel because his country owns both parties in Congress and especially the WH. He's content with the US's servitude to Tel Aviv and just has to nudge now and then. It's those opposed to this warped dynamic who must object constantly.
I love how the pro-war western exiles from both Venezuela and Iran had to quickly realize that Trump had absolutely no interest in "freeing" their countries or whatever and that the US doesn't fight wars to liberate people: only to steal their oil and install puppet regimes.
Every week, members of both parties in the "US Congress" pass a bill or resolution to protect and serve Israel, pledge their allegiance to Israel, make pilgrimage there, send billions more there. But it's the ones who notice and object who are "obsessed" with Israel: not them.
For a long time, bombing and killing innocent people at wedding parties was a trademark of Barack Obama, but apparently its validity has expired because now Trump is doing it as part of his noble and inspiring campaign to "liberate" Iranians by murdering them.
Netanyahu boasts of what Israel loyalists in the US call "an anti-Semitic trope":
Why was TikTok really banned (meaning, ultimately, forced into the hands of oligarchs loyal to Israel?). Listen to the CEO of TikTok US Adam Presser explain it in his own words:
MAGA is regime-change war in Iran and data centers: https://t.co/MEZ7SVObND
As the nation prepares to mark the 60-year anniversary of Israel's violent attack on a US naval ship, the USS Liberty, killing 34 American servicemembers and injuring 171 more, Bari Weiss and David Ellison may be facing renewed attacks on the real motives in running CBS News.
It's amazing how quickly they got huge numbers of people to recite the comical view that Iran has been at war with the US for 47 years (and, I guess, every American president forgot to mention this fact, including Trump 1) In the 1980s, the Reagan WH sold highly sophisticated missiles and other weapons to Iran in order to illegally fund the contras in Nicaragua after Congress banned that funding. If Iran really were at war with the US in the 1980s, it means Reagan officials are guilty of the worst possible treason: arming America's enemies in a time of war.
From the start, those craving war with Iran have arbitrarily invented numbers for how many "peaceful protesters" Iran killed. Sometimes it's 30,000. Other times 45k. On Tuesdays: 76k. Trump today woke up and decided to claim it's more than 100,000. Why not make it a million?
18 months before Netanyahu had Trump attack Iran for Israel, Jared Moskowitz demanded the US attack Iran for his beloved Israel. AOC's candidate for House Speaker, Hakeem Jeffries, just put Moskowitz in charge of Israel policy. So Israel wins with either outcome in November.🇮🇱
Trump campaigned on mass deportations but instead had Marco Rubio and ICE focus on deporting those who criticize Israel. A federal judge yesterday ruled the obvious: targeting people for criticizing Israel violates the 1st Am. Congrats to @TheFIREorg. https://t.co/ANVrguniuM
Fox News effusively praises Hakeem Jeffries for elevating the Israel loyalists in the Democratic House caucus to the key positions shaping US policy toward Israel in anticipation of a likely Dem majority in the House. Fox and AOC united behind Jeffries.
