I don’t buy king crab with my income because I want to pay my rent, so what SNAP recipient would do that with their benefits when they have kids to feed??

So did every city in America, including Los Angeles (Angels’ Flight is a remnant). Unfortunately, the oil companies lobbied to remove them all. We were all Dodgers (some more artful than others) in the early 20th Century.

I have seen videos of Angelenos who have a raven visit them every day. What can I do to make that happen?

Zionists are justifying 100+ years of terrorism, murder, and land theft and nearly 80 years of ethnic cleansing and apartheid.

Neither the Torah nor the Talmud permits or excuses these actions. Judaism’s basic tenets explicitly prohibit it.

The 10 Commandments say do not kill and do not covet.

They don’t seem to realize that the reason there is a rise in anti-Zionist sentiment is not because they’re Jewish but because they’re genocidal, land stealing bigots.

Stop the occupation and give Palestinians back their land and there will be no need for resistance.

The evidence has existed from the beginning.

Zionism is colonialism and violent appropriation of native land. They did hide this. See the letterhead.

There is no justification for killing people and stealing their land. Not for American, South African, or English ppl. It is wrong.

OK, here’s an Israeli historian’s account, with hundreds of quotes and citations.

Their real actions played out even worse!

I have seen so many atrocities, it would take 30 posts just to list the worst of them.

IDF repeatedly targets kids, seniors, pregnant women, moms, & the disabled. Even animals. Or are they Hamas, too? 🙄

They tried peaceful protests in 2018 but IDF snipers shot 8,000 of them, many of them kids. 5 days of pogroms in 2023. 80 yrs of occupation and exile.
How much do you expect one ppl to bear?

The plan from before the Holocaust was to get rid of all the non-Jews and seize all the land. Ben Gurion discussed it with other leaders in 1937. Plan Dalet had the details.

Attacking and razing 520 villages & 20 urban areas, killing 15,000 people, violently expelling 750,000, mining the rubble & poisoning wells w/ typhoid, stealing their land. Continuing to occupy, kill, expel, arrest, & torture civilians for the last 78 yrs and still stealing land. Watch “Tantura.”

The Nakba didn’t begin there or end there. The ongoing Nakba began in the 19th century and continues today.

There is simply no excuse for killing people and taking their land. I don’t care who you think promised it to you. None of it is valid in the real world.
June 24, 2025 at 6:41 PM
But when a fraction of that happens to Jewish people, suddenly it’s a genocide justifying 2 years of slaughter and utter destruction.

Never mind that the IDF killed over a thousand Israelis themselves on Oct 7.
June 24, 2025 at 6:39 PM
I guess the Holocaust and the Armenian genocide and the Killing Fields weren’t genocides, either because there are still Jews and Armenians and Cambodians.

It doesn’t have to be 100% successful to be considered a genocide.
June 24, 2025 at 6:25 PM
Morris and other historians agree about the Nakba. The facts are not in dispute: tons of newsreel footage and the eyewitness testimony of thousands of victims and of perpetrators. Why else is Gaza full of refugee camps if Zionist militias hadn’t turned 750,000 Palestinians into refugees?
June 24, 2025 at 6:23 PM
How does the IDF deliberately targeting toddlers and shooting them in the head help remove Hamas from Gaza?

Can you not read English? I said it was enabled by genocide.

And its continued existence as a colonizer and occupier has been facilitated by the ongoing genocide and domicide of Palestinians: over 500,000 killed since 1947, over a million imprisoned since 1967, more than 3 million displaced.
June 24, 2025 at 6:11 PM
Ah, yes, another misplaced modifier, another animal in human clothes!
June 24, 2025 at 6:05 PM
The genocide in 1947-48 that enabled Israel’s existence atop the graves of Palestinians.

The Nakba happened. Until you acknowledge it, make amends, and stop the occupation, Israel will have no peace.
