[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone please explain why these protesters weren't at the RNC? I honestly don't understand why they're protesting the DNC, but not Bibi's bestie Donald, who definitely doesn't care about Palestinians.[/quote]

These are people who want “their party” to represent their interests. The leadership just expects everyone to shut up and fall in line. Things are changing.[/quote]

They don't get to call the Democrats "their party" when they run around shrieking "Genocide Joe" and heckling Democrats during campaign events and so on.  They have clearly taken a hateful, adversarial anti-Democrat position.

And don't even get me started on the fact that they are being organized and funded by Iran.  To me, that means their political party is the IRGC, and it's clear they won't vote for Democrats - I don't recognize them as Democrats.  [/quote]

The Dems are a lot more than just Israel. You only care about Israel and enforcing your views on everyone else. [/quote]

Let's be blunt and honest here - the staunchly pro-Hamas part of America may be obnoxiously loud and visible through its vandalism and occupying of street intersections but in terms of numbers, it's only 2% tops even in places like Michigan which has the highest percentage of Muslims.  You want to enforce your views on 98% of America.[/quote]

lol 98% of Americans do not give a sh#t if Israel continues or ceases to exist tomorrow. They can’t even find it on a map. Israel is a Jewish state and only 2% of the country is Jewish. Tell me again why 98% of the country is no allowed to migrate to Israel?

The dems are against racism, intolerance, oppression, apartheid, genocide but are for freedom, justice, religion freedoms, democracy, protection for minorities, helping the down trodden and oppressed, the constitution, equal rights, human right, etc. Now you think because Israel is important to you everyone should throw out their values and ignore what Israel is?  :roll:  :idea: [/quote]
Do you know that people who aren't Jewish care about whether or not the State of Israel exists or not? The small percentage of Jews in this country =/= the percentage who care about the issue. For that matter, not all 2% of US Jews want Israel to exist.

As for finding it on a map, people voted on their feelings about Afghanistan and Iraq and couldn't find those on a map either. Americans form opinions about issues all the time without regard for maps.[/quote]

Sorry to shatter your world but 98% of the people do not care. Israel is so unimportant to the vast majority of Americans that they do not even know it exist- ie can not find it on a map. Israel’s support among politicians is all manufactured by lobbyist. Israel policy in the US use to have no downside because 98% of Americans did not care. Israel had the political profile equivalent to importing farm raised salmon from Argentina.

That has changed with AIpac pushing of right wing ideology, the heinous crimes against humanity Israel commits daily and Israel giving the US the finger on everything. This keeps Israel in the news. No American wants to attack Iran or anyone else for Israel. No American wants to support a country that kills a little girls family, let’s her sit with her families blood all over her for hours and then kills the people who were sent to help her.

So now there is a huge downside to being associated with Israel or lord help you supporting Israel. Good luck with your genocide..never again!

You are very wrong about this. I know a lot of non-Jews who are hugely supportive of Israel as a democratic ally in the Middle East and as a home/important origin for the Christian religion as well as for Jewish and Muslim.  Many American Christians visit Israel annually on trips to learn more about Christ and his life.  Nearly every American service member I know supports Israel from a military perspective.  [/quote]

Don't fall for the propaganda![/quote]

I won’t fall for your propaganda and lies.  [/quote]
