Why can't people speak out against Israel/IDF?

It's perfectly fine to say "Defund the police" after a few rogue police officers (in some badly run police departments) kill some African Americans, but criticize the IDF or Israeli government (an organization which has no killed 60,000 or so and maybe 3-4 times that, while displacing and actively starving an entire country) and your visa is immediately revoked to perform as concerts in the US.

Is anyone else not seeing this lunacy and the complete double standard of all of this?

Some very reasonable solutions have been put forth in congress - like you should disclose if you possess foreign citizenship while running for office. I wonder if that will help us elucidate some things...


Oh, NOW you’re worried about free speech? But it was fine when people were being harassed & canceled & their Twitter accounts suspended for comments regarding COVID, election legitimacy, and other topics deemed off limits? Trump himself got his Twitter account suspended.

Do you not understand the difference between the government (which is subject to the First Amendment) and a corporation like Twitter (which is not) ?

Do you not understand that the government pressured the corporations like Twitter to do the censoring? We've seen the proof.

It’s amazing people still make this argument after the whole tick tock deal.

Tow the line or get nationalized.

I mean, people really need to find something other than Israelis and/or Jews to obsess about.

Didn't you know? In the western countries, musicians need to be government approved to perform on stage.

Look up how much AIPAC spends lobbying the US government. Now look up how much Qatar spends. Please report back with your findings and let us know why you think AIPAC is running things.

Pretty much. I can only think of a handful of politicians who aren't cozy with AIPAC

Here’s Tel Aviv Ted posting on July 4th.

"You know what I love about America? Israel."

Um, women should never be treated as property. Read the Quran, my friend. You’ll be enlightened to their beliefs.


Read the Bible my friend, you will find the same misogynistic text on the place and role of women in the family and in relationship to men that you seem to believe is only in the Quran.

The Torah and talmud are way
More hardcore than the Quran. They say a woman must cover her hair (mandatory). It doesn’t even say that in the Quran. It also says how homosexuals must be thrown off buildings (something Islamic texts do not say).

It’s funny how Israel supports ISIS who apparently did this and attacked Christian middle easterners and Americans yet they claim to be pro lgbt, anti terror, and pro America. Yeah right. They’re the real extremists

Everything Israel says is a projection or lie.
. Most of the terror and trouble in the me is tied to them including Hamas
