  • Condemning Israel is not anti-Semitic, Nora’s calling out the atrocities committed by the people in Israel against the Palestinians. The fact of the matter is, Israel’s repeated violations of international law and pushing beyond boundaries established by the United Nations push the Palestinians into the arms of Hamas. If Israel had displayed years and years ago a good faith effort to establish a Palestinian state and treated the Palestinians with respect, The problems would have been solved long ago. Instead for decades Israel has pushed an apartheid state, randomly killing Palestinian citizens and treating them like garbage, perpetuating the problem. We (the US)should not be supporting Israel given their reprehensible behavior and continue to legal stealing of Palestinian land and continued abhorrent treatment of the Palestinian citizens. I am Jewish by blood, atheist by belief, I hate Israel. I don’t blame young people in the United States at all for their protests against Israel.

    At the same time I also hate Hamas. However I view them as a disease, and the cause is Israel. For every innocent civilian they kill, Israel creates at least one terrorist, if not more. Their current course of action will only make things worse in the long run.


  • You ignore the fact that Trump is the one displaying blatantly senile examples. He keeps repeatedly over and over again mixing up Biden with Obama, he gets world leaders wrong, he gets the location he’s in wrong, and various other examples. He looks, unwell in general, his health appears to be declining rapidly. If You think he will somehow be out of jail and healthy enough to survive the election gauntlet next year You are wrong. I get let you apparently don’t like the DNC, with good reason, but the whole ragging on biting about senility doesn’t fit the facts.




  • I live in a very Jewish area, with the Halocost Museum 20 minutes away, my brother in-law is Jewish, I’m friends with his whole family and a bunch of others. Nobody supports Israel, and it’s a common topic of conversation. I don’t know anyone either in local politics that supports Israel, and I am active there. Israel IS the problem - their horrible treatment of Palestinians resulted in Hamas rising to power. they’re continued unrelenting land grabs and abuse have continue to strengthen Hamas. They want to continue to steal land, and if they make peace they won’t be able to. If You total the body count over the last decade there are far far more dead Palestinians than there are Israelis.

    Even now, with every civilian they kill in their response, they create four or eight more terrorists. Israel’s government is on the fast track to authoritarianism with the anti-democratic movement there that is actually worse than the GOP here. We should not be giving them a dime. We don’t owe them anything, and we’re broke. We’ve giving them more than enough.

    The Democrats are on the wrong side of history for every day they don’t condemn the atrocities Israel is committing.
