    One of many things I love about Jewish culture is the sense of humour, sometimes even in the face of evil.

    You got it. And yes, there's lots of division between the sects on this subject.

    UNRWA = Hamas

    Dismantle the UN.

    Hold its leaders accountable in De Hague if they were complicit.

    I had a conversation with Bibi's biographer and he corrected me when I spoke of Judaism as a religion.

    The IDF defends our values and freedom, including freedom of religion.

    Firstly, I'll say that I have been a critical of the Netenyahu administration from jump. Remember, though, that his policies and actions in regard to the Palestinians is the exception when compared to the other Prime Minister's.

    So, I think your main issue is correct pertaining to Netenyahu, but certainly not Israel as a whole. Anecdotally, I know a lot of Jews, Israelis, some Palestinians, and have been to both Jewish and Muslim parts of Israel, and that hasn't been my experience in the least bit. I hope you don't really believe Jews have an inherent desire to oppress.

    Jews and Muslims have both lived there, they've both been kicked out, they both have a claim (even moreso than Americans do to their country). In 2023, that area is a country called Israel.

    Many Muslims serve in the Knesset and IDF. The only Jews in Gaza are hostages of the terrorists that run the joint. These are facts, and serve as evidence to prove your claim of Israel being an Apartheid state to be verifiably false by it's very definition.

    That's the whole point, and where it comes from!

    Small note, I don't buy into the idea that people are evil. Violence of any kind, like all self-betrayal, stems from the animal instinct to seek comfort, the methods by which are affected by conditioning.

    The common thread for which we fall
    Are stitches in a cashmere hall.

    It's many things, not least of which being a lifelong commitment to upset tummies and constant complaining.

    Takling someone to the ground is liberal speech rights?

    Putting civilians in quotation marks is no better than encouraging your small child to enlist as a suicide bomber?

    Turns out this “doll” was probably an actual slain baby. A closer look:



    That is a remarkably detailed doll face, otherwise.

    That clip is of the grandfather, the previous tweet you posted (the tweet looks to now be deleted) was of this infant’s mother holding her son.

    The Jerusalem Post put out an article chastising Al Jazeera for blurring the face of the infant that they said clearly shows it to be a doll. They have since deleted that article.



    The infant’s name that was believed to have been killed was Muhammad Hani Al-Zahar.

    "Muslim parts of Israel" lol.

    Imagine occupying Palestinians' land and having the audacity to call it "Muslim parts of Israel."

    In attempt, yes. It is an attempt to demonize all Palestinians and encourage the slaughter whether they are terrorists or not terrorists. It is a clear cut effort to minimize the immorality civilian casualties.

    I went to the Arab Quarter in Jerusalem.

    ...And it isn't exclusively their land. Whose Temple do you think was "occupying" the Mount on which they built the Dome of the Rock?

    ,
    Ok fine, for the sake of the discussion I'll buy your speculated motivation.

    So, demonizing people is as bad as encouraging your own daughter to become a terrorist suicide bomber and actually, physically murdering innocent people, and in the process ending her life?
