OMG - that is awful.


It is the same as displaying an Israeli flag.


That is a hate-symbol and offensive!


I see the israeli flag/star of david flag pretty much the same way I view a confederate flag or swastika flag. All three are basically the same to me.


You both have serious, serious issues. JFC.


I’m not the one defending a genocidal cabal masquerading as a religion.

But you do you.

Sure, but still probably more than two-thirds. Turns out American Jews don't only vote based on questions involving Israel, and also turns out most of us don't find Republican antisemitism much more appealing than Democratic antisemitism.


Most of the time Jews feel both parties have Israel's back or pass a pro-Israel litmus test, freeing them up to vote almost entirely on domestic considerations. But look what happened to Jimmy Carter in 1980. Went from 71% of the Jewish vote in 1976 to 45% in 1980.

It happens on the Republican side too. George HW Bush lost more than half of his previous Jewish support in 1992.

How do you feel about defacing the American flag with a swastika?

Or are you too busy burning them to form an opinion?

The Pro-Israeli side in a nutshell. Looking to be the victims and no one indulging. The media waits for someone so much as accidentally bumping into one of these people to then breathlessly and hysterically report about it and then bring them before Congress to scream about antisemitism. Literal Jews at these protests and still, the media and many of you people just lie and engage in your own bigotry and racism:

The same way as I feel about an American Flag next to an Israel flag. Israel, Nazi, Confederate, etc. all represent the same thing. The world is not left or right but wrong or right. We know you put Israel first over any country.

Using your Judaism to both defend what Israel does and get offended when someone points out that you're doing it, is an even bigger problem. How do you get all emotional and then also get offended if it's conflated when you yourself conflate the two? You shouldn't be conflating your religion with an horrific occupation. It does a disservice to Judaism itself.

Funny how we Palestinians never get asked how 1920s-Oct 6, 2023 impacted us, or about our "right to exist" or "right to defend ourselves"
Instead, we get ignorant, know-nothings telling us we don't exist and we reject like these totally awesome peace plans (sans the details). We're nefarious, one-dimensional caricatures with no loved ones, no connection to a land, no identity. No other people are subjected to this level of accepted degradation and dehumanization. It's the curse of being up against very powerful people who get to be portrayed as the victims.

If you're upset, it's because you're not accustomed to Israel being exposed for what it has always been.

No matter what you tell yourself, it was EUROPE that went after Jews for being *Jewish* not Palestinians. Arab Jews have been a part of the ME forever and no amount of revisionism is going to change the fact that millions of Jews were massacred for being Jews in EUROPE and those Jews were *European* Palestine was invaded by Zionist Jews who wanted to take it all. They were welcomed to Palestine.

Stop lying to yourself about what this is actually about. You live in the west and apply the negative view of Jews by westerners through, to Palestinians. You're too ignorant and provincial to make the distinction. We Palestinians do not hate people for being Jewish, no matter what some provincial twit sitting in DC tells you. I take countless Jews over the garbage gulf state Muslims any day of the week.

It was NEVER about your religion, yet you get to hate me just for existing. You get to claim a scarf my own great-grandfathers wore and is older than that ethnostate, is a "terrorist" scarf.

You've been endlessly coddled while hundreds of thousands of my people have been massacred by a Polish invader and the US govt smirks.


Funny how you don’t, even once, address the terrorists who Palestinians elected to lead them, and who committed atrocities on Oct. 7 against Jews. How completely typical for you to completely ignore the fact that YOU SUPPORT TERRORISTS.


You're despicable beyond words.

Short of literally killing my own family and declaring myself non-existent, nothing will ever satisfy a Zionist. I don't feel the need to ever prove myself to the likes of you, because you're a genuinely terrible person. Someone who clearly will never admit every damned thing israel has done to get to the point of an Oct 7 was what you described, you heartless, soulless hypocrite. Most of the deaths were by IDF. There were no headless Jewish babies. There was no mass rape. Why do you think Israel is so selective in the footage they release? You defend people who do this. YOU support terrorism, not me.

I owe you and these people NOTHING. I certainly wouldn't cheer on death the way you and your ilk do.:

You psychos don't even have remorse over that lie which the president went out and told to the American people. A child was stabbed to death 26 times! I don't you anything, because YOU FIRST for 75 years of rape,

If you seriously think the world sees the American flag these days as a symbol of freedom because you yourself live in a bubble pretending the US doesn't fund hell and oppression, then that's on you. You choose to ignore the US wielding its power in the UN and Congress for evil. Be ashamed of all of the vetoes and laws solely to protect a belligerent foreign nation. Be ashamed states are passing laws to punish Americans who dare to speak out against what Israel does, so don't act like that swastike isn't apt these days when a TX city literally tried to keep natural disaster aid relief from people who wouldn't sign a pledge to not boycott Israel. That's how psychotic it has gotten in this country. Boycott your own country, get punished for speaking out about one, single foreign one. Don't pretend any of is normal.

George HW Bush isn’t given enough credit for at least starting the Oslo Accords process. Even though it went down in flames, it started out with good intentions
