Although it is taboo to criticize Israel, it is difficult to close our eyes and our hearts to what is happening in Gaza. One thing is for sure, whatever sympathy was there for Israel after the October 7 atrocities has long evaporated. Indeed, it has transformed into an opposite — of similar proportions.

“Breaking news” is a joke at this point its everyday news
For those believing in land promised to God’s people: This is from Dr Naomi Wolf Dated July 25, 2014 Okay, so I was challenged below. “Read the Bible! God gave the land of Israel to the Jewish people.” So… I may get crucified for this but I have started to say it —most recently (terrified, trembling) to warm welcome in a synagogue in LA: Actually if you could read Genesis Exodus and Deuteronomy in Hebrew — as I do — you will see that God did not “give” Israel to the Jews/Israelites. We as Jews are raised with the creed that “God gave us the land of Israel” in Genesis — and that ethnically “we are the chosen people.” But actually — and I could not believe my eyes when I saw this, I checked my reading with major scholars and they confirmed it — actually God’s “covenant” in Genesis Exodus and Deuteronomy with the Jewish people is NOT ABOUT AN ETHNICITY AND NOT ABOUT A CONTRACT. IT IS ABOUT A WAY OF BEHAVING. Again and again in the “covenant” language He never says “I will give you, ethnic Israelites, the land of Israel.” Rather He says something far more radical — far more subversive — far more Godlike in my view. He says: IF you visit those imprisoned…act mercifully to the widow and the orphan… welcome the stranger in your midst…tend the sick…do justice and love mercy…and perform various other tasks…THEN YOU WILL BE MY PEOPLE AND THIS LAND WILL BE YOUR LAND. So “my people” is not ethnic — it is transactional. We are God’s people not by birth but by a way of behaving, that is ethical, kind and just. And we stop being “God’s people“ when we are not ethical, kind and just. And ANYONE who is ethical, kind and just is, according to God in Genesis, “God’s people.” And the “contract” to “give” us Israel is conditional — we can live in God’s land if we are “God’s people” in this way — just, merciful and compassionate. AND — it never ever says, it is ONLY your land. Even when all passages spell out geographical “boundaries” as if God does such a thing, it never says this is exclusively your land. It never says I will give this land JUST to you. Remember these were homeless nomads who had left slavery in Egypt and were wandering around in the desert; at most these passages say, settle here, but they do not say, settle here exclusively. Indeed again and again it talks about welcoming “zarim” — translated as “strangers” but can also be translated as “people/tribes who are not you” — in your midst. Blew my mind, hope it blows yours.
This is what our money is funding.
This is sick
Israel must comply with key ICJ ruling ordering it do all in its power to prevent genocide against Palestinians in Gaza The USA, UK, Germany and other EU states must signal their respect for the Court’s legally binding decision and do everything in their power to uphold their obligation to prevent genocide. - Agnès Callamard, Secretary General of Amnesty International
Man this is worse than Pearl Harbor
I love how Hamas is not held the same standard as Israel is, just because Israel is so much stronger. Just like how USA is always blamed for everything while no one dares to say a thing about China
This is what the Palestinians wanted.......
TEARS OF WAR 2024!! Tears are the raindrops of the soul And there's one for all who die. They are the silent words of grief As they fall free from the eye. The shortest verse in the Bible Is the one where Jesus wept So, if you hold back tears, shed them When your pain is too harsh to accept. Tears are lovelier than a smile When they come from those you love As they seek relief from sadness When you're summoned from above. Tears are a love-mates humble gift When it's time to say goodbye Though the eyes are wet and swollen With time and patience they dry. By Tom Zart!
A liar is always a liar
I’m just an old soldier who heeded my calling, I have no political nor religious allegiance. I do know that the Palestinians are being treated unjust and inhumane. However, as long as one Palestinian remain there will be resistance against their oppressors.
At what point does Israel commit warcrimes? Is there a line, or is it anti-semetic to point that out?
If the enemy has infrastructure or operates in a sensitive facility like a hospital, it's allowed to a military mission there. The IDF captured 20 terrorists that were hidden there and investigated the lead regarding the Israeli hostages in the facility. In addition, the IDF are helping the civilians and the staff stay safe or evacuate if needed and even providing medical equipment. Since day one of operating in Gaza, the IDF has been making sure to follow the law, and it will keep doing so.
"The Lord said to Abram, I will bless those who bless Israel and whoever curses Israel, I will curse; and all people on earth will be blessed through Israel." (Genesis 12:3)
Hamas reminds me of the Monty Black Knight in Monty Python who loses his arms and says "'tis but a scratch".
Those who turn their backs are complicit. There's no sign of resident Israeli's rebelling against their fascist government.
THIS IS THE BIGEST SCANDAL IN THE WORLD HISTORY !!!!!!
Palestinians have the right of resistance against the oppressor, apartheid and colonial state of Israel, even the armed resistance. Israel being the oppressor and illegitimate force doesn't have any right of defence, their rhetoric of defence is absolutely absurd and ridiculous.
