I’ve not “flip flopped” my position once. I simply presented the text of the holy book you brought up to show how anti-Zionism is not just antisemitic, but anti-Islamic as well, as it goes against the orders of your own prophet.

It doesn’t matter what your “interpretation” is. Palestine is still never mentioned in the Quran. What is mentioned dozens of times is Israel. Allah even promises the land of Israel to the Jews. For example: (Quran 5:21) "O my people! Enter the holy land which Allah hath assigned unto you.”

You’ve not “caught” anyone, and only proved your initial argument is false. Perhaps one needs to suspend their intelligence to believe the lies of of the Pro-Hamas camp, but I simply can’t deny history and facts.

This is an insult to our intelligence. Mohammad died in 632 CE. The al-Aqsa Mosque wasn’t built until 692 CE. It didn’t exist at the time of Mohammed’s life, nor even before the first published texts of the Koran.

They’re part of the same anti-democratic machine programmed by Putin. 10/7 was Putin’s most effective election meddling scheme ever. It instantly divided and weakened the Left, and discredited countless institutions. The fact that was Putin’s birthday was no coincidence.

Trump has traded away American power and influence for nothing. Like Putin, Trump doesn’t know how to win a war. And after this, I’m not sure anyone would want to fight under his pathetic excuse for leadership. He’s no president. He’s a wrecking ball. That’s it.

Trump and his team claim they are protecting American interests, but there are no benefits to declaring a Putin victor in this war. None. It makes us as weak as Russia, and aligns us with anti-democratic forces around the world—the same regimes who seek to destroy us.

It’s in that context that Trump has swooped in to rescue Putin. Instead of leveraging the power of our allies and our own military might to send Putin, a murderous dictator, limping back to St. Petersburg with his tail between his legs, Trump sided with him over our democratic ally.

Putin’s military has never been in worse shape. Aside from hundreds-of-thousands of infantry dead, he’s lost countless military vehicles, tanks and aircraft. Even his Black Sea fleet has been decimated. And for all of that, Putin made little progress against Ukraine. He’s failed by every measure.

It’s funny, Palestine isn’t mentioned once in the Koran, yet Israel is mentioned dozens of times. In fact Jews are referred to as “children of Israel.”

None. They left at the behest of the Arab League who promised them they could come back once they annihilated the Jews. Then the Arab leaders lied about Dier Yassin and they all fled in terror.

No. 800,000 Jews were expelled from Arab lands since 1948. That’s why only a handful of Jews are left throughout the Arab/Muslim world. They were ethnically cleansed and no amount of revisionist history will erase that.

It was also a movement for equality for all, including for non-Jews. That’s why Israel is the only progressive democracy in the Middle East with equal rights for all religions, ethnicities and genders. It’s why 2 million Muslims live with full equal rights in Israel.

Rather, Zionism recognized humanity’s innate intolerance of Jews and proposed at a time when nation-states were forming around the globe, that Jews establish their own state. It was an effort for self-determination, and a hope to prevent the coming Holocaust.

Redefining the one term used to describe Jew-hate is talking over Jews.
Zionism is not racism. Nor are Jews white. In fact, the majority of Israel’s population would not be considered “white,” as most of them emigrated from Africa and ME countries. We certainly weren’t white enough for Hitler.

You are talking over Jews right now. Your movement was stollen from Jews. Stop scapegoating Jews and using Zionism as some kind of shield for your racism.
