Glen LeLievre cartoon: A lion, wearing spectacles and holding a gavel, sitting on a desk in a cave strewn with bones frowns as it watches a hand reaching through a hole toward a dunce's cap. "He came back for his hat"

I'm still not convinced that one can be both a Zionist and Jewish.

#CrimesAgainstHumanity
#antisemitism
#Zionism
THE TIMES OF ISRAEL [headline: To dislike certain ethnicities is racist; to see Jews as equal is antisemitic] [italics: Understand the specialty of Antisemitism] Jews are the only People based on an assignment. And their Divinely ordained task is to be exemplary to all of humanity. To be G*d’s ambassadors on earth, fighting for the good of everyone. That means that when one says that Jews are just like everyone else, you're a bigot. You don’t need to look down on Jews to be Antisemitic. And, the idea that Jews should be no different than Gentiles already implies opposing Jews. As if Jews should adjust to majority norms, integrate, and assimilate away.

A Jewish American dismantles some Zionist talking-points.
"Due to the persuasiveness of Zionist propaganda, I spent more than half my life defending Israel. When I finally learned the actual history, I was appalled – and furious."

Every socialist idea begins with the same simple truth: humans flourish when we care for each other. Everything else (the theory, the policies, the struggle) is just logistics.

Cass Cole Jul 2 Would the UK sell Australia to the US? Well, wait a minute with all your refusals. This could actually work. The U.S. approaches Britain and offers to buy Australia. Britain says it can’t do that, as Australia is not for sale. U.S. says, in the American mindset, that anything is for sale for the right price. Brit and Aussie humour are quite similar in many ways. So. Government heads get together, tired of all the uneducated U.S. comments. Now there is a Plan. British government tells U.S. Government, that they will sell, but price is enormous. No matter, America wants Australia, then they can go after Canada also. Talks held, Trillions of dollars mentioned. Finally, big talks to be held. Then U.S. told that without Canada, nothing can be done, and Canadians would not agree. So, sadly, deal is off. Resulting epic screaming, pounding desks, etc all captured for TV. Hey, summer slow for news. Could keep the Commonwealth entertained all summer. Bet Charles gets a kick out of it too. But he can’t say because that’s not his forte to get involved.

Shaiel Ben-Ephraim @academic_la I took the liberty of translating this Tweet of an Israeli explaining why the country is going down the tubes and he is leaving. A must read for what is going on there: [quote] Yuv 🤷🏾‍♀️ @hyuvii עוד יומיים אני עולה למטוס עוזב את הארץ. זה נורא קשה לגדול במקום, לאהוב אותו, ואז לראות שהוא נורא. שבין כל האנשים הטובים המקום עצמו רקוב לגמרי עד היסוד. לראות את הריקבון הזה באנשים שאתה אוהב. נשברתי.

A group of Jewish organisations has labelled Envoy Jillian Segal’s “Antisemitism Report” an attack on Australia’s “democracy” and “freedoms” – benefiting the state of Israel — and say it must be rejected.

We question the need for a Special Envoy role, particularly given that existing mechanisms, including those within the Australian Human Rights Commission (AHRC) National Anti-Racism framework, provide a potential holistic, evidence-based approach to combating all forms of racism, including antisemitism. We call on the government to: * Reject the ASECA Plan — it poses a threat to human rights, democratic freedoms, and social cohesion, * Implement a comprehensive, whole-of-society strategy to address racism and religious discrimination, building on the AHRC’s existing work, * Do not adopt the divisive IHRA definition of antisemitism, which conflates antisemitism with criticism of the State of Israel and the Palestinian struggle for justice and self-determination, * Rescind the IHRA definition where it has already been adopted, * Do not adopt any specific definition of antisemitism. Specific definitions of racism are not used with other forms of racism, and are unnecessary, * Do not grant the Special Envoy any enforcement or monitoring powers, nor endorse any enforcement framework that restricts free expression, academic freedom, or artistic and journalistic work.

"People cling to falsehoods because those beliefs steady them. They reject evidence because it unsettles them."

"Evidence is necessary but never sufficient."

"Falsehoods spread because they soothe. Truth falters because it stings."
Why false beliefs feel safer than the truth
People clinging to falsehoods is not a failure of intelligence, but a deeply human attempt to protect emotional stability in an overwhelming world.

"The council publicly apologised for "distress that may have been caused by the photos." [of a Palestinian flag necklace]"

When a Zionist complains of distress, the first response should be to commit them to an institution for treatment.
