Ottomans had the right to move around the Ottoman Empire.

This means that Ottoman Jews had the right to move to Jerusalem, which was in the Ottoman Empire.

They chose NOT to make Aliyah, because they WEREN'T Zionists.

Zionism is NOT an inherant part of being Jewish.

"TWO-STATE SOLUTION": I've forced my way inside your house, but if you're very nice and passive, then you can still live inside the garden shed.

There should be a tax on planned obsolesence.

If you produce a phone that won't still be working well in 10 years, or a fridge that won't still be working well in 50, or a bedframe that won't be sturdy in 200, then you should be taxed right out of town.

If you think "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" is a call for the genocide of Jews, then you're an antisemite.

You're suggesting that we Jews are so wretched & pathetic, that we cannot live as equals, alongside non-Jewish folk, without getting ourselves killed.

Capitalism 101:

If you're prepared to do any job, even if you hate it, even if it makes you depressed, even if it doesn't contribute to society in any way - then you might be paid a decent whack.

If you have any scruples, if you want to help others, the chances are you won't.

"Globalise the intifada" - NOT ANTISEMITIC.

"From the river to the sea" - NOT ANTISEMITIC.

"Free Palestine" - NOT ANTISEMITIC.

Equating Jewish people with Israel or Zionism - VERY ANTISEMITIC.

Imagine someone was raping lots of people.

And you said, "Don't do that, it's bad".

And then people were like, "You're just jealous. You'd be raping people if you could".

Well, that, but with billionaires.

Israel religous authorities refuse to accept that over half of the world's Jews are actually Jewish.

Zionism truly is bat-shizzle crazy.

House prices are too high.
They need to be reduced.

BREAKING NEWS: Donald Trump considers tariffs on "UEFA play-off D" and "Fifa play-off 2".

His team are hard at work, finding these nations on the map.

Freezing rents (in New York) and freezing train fares (in the UK) is a decent start, and better than nothing, but we need much much more.

The cost of living is too high. We don't just need to freeze it. We need to REDUCE it.

We need lower rents, lower fares, and lower bills...

"Taxes are high. This governement is left-wing!"

Errr..... Nope!

If the big taxes are on the 99%, and they go to the 1% - if inequality is going up - then your government is right-wing.

Left-wingers want to tax the super rich, and redistribute resourcesa to the 99%.

Do you want to stop all the unsafe, illegal, small-boat channel crossings?

Then provide anyone who wants it with access to safe, legal, big-boat channel crossings.

It's really as simple as that.

159,837 people died in conflicts, in 2024.

That doesn't even include "excess deaths", caused as a result of war.

We must remember them all.

We must bring an end to war, before war brings an end to us.

Deaths in armed conflicts
Included are deaths of combatants and civilians due to fighting in interstate, intrastate, extrasystemic, non-state conflicts, and one-sided violence that were ongoing that year.

We will remember all the victims, on all sides, of all wars.

And we will say "never again, for anyone, anywhere".

If a bunch of foreigners came to Britain, and said - "We want to colonise all of Britain, but we'll compromise and accept England. The English can go and live in Scotland and Wales" - do you think Brits would accept that?

Of course they wouldn't!

So why should the Palestinians?

Israel hasn't released any of the child hostages its kidnapped.

Israel still holds 300+ Palestinian children.

Some of the children have been tortured – subjected to violent shaking, blasts of freezing air, and deafening music.

This is evil.

You cannot have peace without justice.

The victims of injustice, will always fight for their rights. This is natural.

To secure peace, therefore, we must give the Palestinians their justice.

The refugees must be allowed to return home.

The apartheid system must be dismantled.

Two-years ago today, on the 7th October 2023, the IDF invoked the Hannibal Directive: It conducted a wave of murderous attacks, which claimed the lives of scores of Israeli Jews.

The IDF is a terrorist organisation.

It ought to be proscribed.

It's worth remembering that the First Intifada was wholly non-violent.

The Great March of Return was non-violent.

The violence we witnessed on October 7th was inevitable, because non-violent protests such as these (and others) were ignored.

They've been ignored since 1948.

On the 2-year anniversary of the October Uprising, let's remember:

1) This didn't start in 2023. Zionist colonialism began with the First Aliyah in 1881.

2) Zionists knew the locals would resist their occupation.

3) The continued that occupation, KNOWING JEWS WOULD BE KILLED!

The actions of Israel, provoke antisemitism around the world. That leads to attacks, like the one we saw in Manchester on Yom Kippur.

The solution is simple: Get out on the streets, and protests against the Zionist State.

No Jew is safe, while Israel still exists.
October 4, 2025 at 4:48 AM
I'm Jewish

So I'm apalled by the senseless murders of two Jews in Manchester

But I'm equally apalled, each time I hear that two people have been senselessly murdered in Gaza, Ukraine, or anywhere else

Why should I feel any different?

We're all members of the same human family
