I really fail to understand how this cheap manipulation by the left continues to be repeated and apparently accepted: The vast majority of Palestinians (some 95%) living in Gaza &the West Bank live under the rule of Palestinian authorities they elected.
Whatever rights Palestinians in the West Bank &Gaza are denied, it's Palestinian authorities that are denying those they govern these rights.
If you demand that Israel must give West Bank &Gaza Palestinians the same rights as Israeli citizens, why not demand Israel also gives those rights to Lebanese, Jordanians, Syrians &Egyptians? They sure would all love to have "equal rights" with Israelis.
Moreover, if Palestinians in Gaza &the West Bank should have "equal rights" with Israelis, it would be a quite bloody affair to achieve that -- because they then wouldn't have the "right" to have armed Islamist terror organizations.
Oh, and incidentally, does any of the "equal rights" advocates promote equal rights for Jews at the Temple Mount?
I know, I know, one shouldn't take "equal rights" that far...

Oh well -- I guess condemning Hamas and other Palestinian jihadi terror groups for shooting some 600 rockets into Israel in the past 2 days would have been expecting too much from Rashida Tlaib & Yousef Munayyer....
And if you're wondering what's the reaction of this other prominent "pro-Palestinian" congresswoman -- here's Ilhan Omar's heartfelt condemnation of the relentless rocket barrage unleashed on Israeli civilians from Gaza 👇
And a good word for the jihadi rocket crews of Gaza from Linda Sarsour...

"The labels of antisemitism were here before the Minister Farrakhan controversy 8 months ago" complains Linda Sarsour while dismissing it as a right-wing smear campaign. So here are some facts about Linda Sarsour's longstanding antisemitism +
Almost exactly 6 years ago, @lsarsour signed @AliAbunimah's Orwellian definition of antisemitism, which reflects the vile views Abunimah expressed in the screenshots below 👇brandeiscenter.com/linda-sarsours…
I've documented a series of tweets &statements by @lsarsour that reflect antisemitic attitudes - and while Sarsour &many of her leftwing supporters like to deny that, some of her fans have no problem recognizing her antisemitsm brandeiscenter.com/linda-sarsours…

Wow, that hits home: I was a @spdde member &activist when I lived in Germany, and also remember good times with @FESonline in Washington DC -- and now they want to give their human rights prize to the Farrakhan fans @womensmarch
h/t @Volker_Beck
So fyi @spdde & @FESonline -- here's what you're honoring when you honor Linda Sarsour &Co: brandeiscenter.com/linda-sarsours…
Back in 2012, Sarsour signed (#73) Ali Abunimah's vile &downright Orwellian re-definition of antisemitism, which reflects Abunimah's raw Jew-hatred expressed here 👇

Death toll higher than in previous exchanges of fire in period since August 2014 (4 Israeli citizens, 18 Palestinians, at least 7 of them militants and at least 2 of the civilians seem to have been killed by Palestinian rockets falling short inside Gaza) but it's still limited >>
Both sides have ratcheted up their actions. Israel by carrying out its first targeted killing of a Hamas commander since 2014, Hamas by firing an anti-tank missile directly at a civilian vehicle and killing its occupant. But they're still holding back most of their capabilities>>
Hamas and PIJ have yet to use any of their longer-range rockets towards Tel Aviv and the overwhelming number of Israeli airstrikes are still against empty "real estate" targets. Both sides still reluctant to take steps making a much wider longer-term confrontation inevitable >>

Seen my tweets about the burning kite terror? Well, Israeli farmers are going to sue Hamas for millions in damages at the international court at Hague. #gaza
Y’all want to scream “massacre”, when you nothing about international law, and conflict zones.
You want to count bodies, not intent. You want to count Hamas militants as “civilians”, and ignore the damage they cause to Israeli civilians.

Do I feel a thread coming on, like the flu? Possible.
This Gaza situation. I don't know if people (by people, I mean "people who can't find Gaza on a map, or don't know it's Occupied by Israel, or how close it is to Europe, Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Egypt...etc.) understand how dire it is.
When I was in Gaza 20 years ago, it was dire.

Curious what facts MSM is not reporting about today's planned tantrum in #Gaza that Palestinians call the #GazaReturnMarch? Look no further and unwind this thread 👇 #Israel
These planned riots on the border between #Israel and #Gaza have been taking place for 6+ weeks and expected to culminate on May 15th (tomorrow), to coincide with the Palestinian “Nakba” day.
#GazaReturnMarch is of course named after the so-called "right of return" of 5 - 7 million refugees and their offspring because Palestinians are invested in the mythology that they flood and strangle #Israel, a country of 8 million. Keep dreaming.

Today is the 7th Friday of the #GreatReturnMarch & the last 1 before #Nakba70 day. Last week was the 1st time Friday's protests w no deaths.
According to @ochaopt, 50 people died since March 30, 40 of them during the protests.
Not a single Israeli was hurt & not 1 rocket launched
Here is my #thread from yesterday about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict & the state of the "only democracy in the Middle East"
And here is my #thread about what happened last Friday
