Um, women should never be treated as property. Read the Quran, my friend. You’ll be enlightened to their beliefs.
I agree with the PP. But if I enumerate my beliefs, my post will be deleted. Think about it.

BOTH sides have committed evil atrocities to their own people, and of course to their enemies.

Obviously we know why you can't speak out against the idea for Israel. Meanwhile you have thousands of Israelis leading marches in Jerusalem chanting death to Arabs and it'll barely make a headline.

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

Nice try, OP.
This rapper led a cheer yelling “death, death to the IDF.” He encouraged thousands to join in.
I suppose had he led a chant yelling “death, death to the Palestines” you would feel the same way?
Looks like he FAFO.

No one should want to fund the evil depopulation, globalist Netanyahu.
Globalists WANT endless wars and pandemics.
The World Economic Forum crazies LOVE Netanyahu. Check out his speeches in Davos.

This double standard--DEI is bad except when it comes to Jews and/or Israel--is not going to do us any favors with people who already hate us. Jews don't do well historically when people can point to us and say we get special things other people don't. Most of the people I know agree with this discomfort and I've read a few articles in the Jewish media pushing back against this idea. Don't get me wrong, I find what the band said appaling and ugly, but I don't agree that it alone should make them ineligible to enter the US.
Fellow member of the tribe here. I agree with everything you're saying.

Although it’s acceptable to call for the death of any other foreign people/government. One can say they hope all Mexicans die, and that is praised by many. You won’t lose your job for saying this.

This, though I don’t have an issue with the band being denied entry.

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...
Of course you can criticize Israel as much as you want to. But don't mix up it with US immigration policy. Same as you can demand defund the police as much as you want. There is freedom of speech in this country.
