Ironically, the only other people I know who think someone in Israel knew about October 7 in advance and purposely decided to do nothing, are right wing conspiracy theorists who think the IDF has too many liberal generals. Horseshoe for retards.
Right on cue, all the worst people on this site are using the latest news about Netanyahu being warned about a potential threat prior to October 7 to spread their gross conspiracy theories. They do that because they think you are stupid. I’m no fan of Netanyahu, and think he should pay for this mistakes with his political career and perhaps more. But watch and see who is pushing the conclusion that it was malice and not arrogance, and that someone decided to let this go ahead because the price of massacre was worth it for whatever evil political scheme they were plotting. None of the losers pushing this have the interest of neither Israelis or Palestinians in mind. Again, they think you’re dumb. Don’t be dumb.
Stop calling this crap “pro Palestine”. The problem is the lies and hateful propaganda, and you make it sound like Jews are hurt because he likes the other team or something.
Speaking of psy-ops, the crazy thing people don’t seem to get is that this entire online war has two sides: Israelis and Jews who know Israel deeply, and highly-online media people who only see the conflict through their phones, and are seething with manufactured rage.
Like, I’m embarrassed for the Palestinian people that these are their allies
Congratulations, you freed Palestine!
My favorite sub-genre of feel-good content is videos of American basketball players being greeted by Israeli fans at Ben Gurion airport. Here’s @Bcolson_35 returning home to @MaccabiTLVBC. (Via @CCFPeace) https://t.co/ExC5DwHxmX
Thanks for this clip! I love it, just like a love when they make lists of Israeli restaurants to boycott 😍
Are we winning in Iran? Why is Turkey so annoying? And will @AaronBMacLean always remain a friend of the Jews, or is El Al security going to ruin our relationship?? All this and more, in our Ask A Jew interview with CBS military analyst and host of the @schoolofwarpod podcast! https://t.co/oqTz8RBLmo
What does the Venn diagram of “people who support the existence of Israel” and “people who fight for Palestinian freedom” look like? Is maybe 1 or 2 organizations (Jewish), at the most? These are imaginary partners.
Most “Pro palestinian” organizations in the west will refuse to meet with Israeli or Zionist peace organizations, and reject any bridge-building or dialogue. It’s never been about coexistence for the activists. The sooner well-meaning people understand that, the better.
I see a lot of people who consider themselves Pro-Palestinian condemning the attack on Brad Lander. What they don't understand is that the demonization of Zionism is a feature, not a bug. You've never been part of a pro-Palestinian movement - Its always been an anti-Israel one.
Almost 5,000 laughing emojis on the CNN Facebook post about Evyatar David, who was starved and tortured in Gaza for 738 days. Now I know people like to talk about bots. Fine, let’s say some are. I’ll give you 25%. That’s still way too many ugly, brainwashed humans among us. https://t.co/9zILhehmnP
This week on Ask A Jew, @SaysCL and I speak to the great @kinsellawarren about how we're all being payed by bad actors online, and how Zionism the kind of punk rock now. Interview starts 35 minutes in. https://t.co/u0w5lFuQtO
Surely they can’t find a way to make Dolly Parton’s passing about Gaza, right?? https://t.co/QKiTpb1BGP
Yea, don't fly anything over our border. I don't know what's dumber -not comprehending why Israelis wouldn't want a terrorist government who massacred them by flying objects over the border to fly objects over the border, or believing these kites are some innocent kid activity.
Remember when every politician and influencer you know promoted this Gaza famine hoax? It's taking time, but one by one the lies are starting to fall apart. Even with foreign influence in social media, AI, and general stupidity - the truth finds a way.
