Alongside Israel Palestine War, a 2nd war of language is also being waged. What describes the dominant Israeli perception of Palestine, past, present, future?
Zionists, Fundamentalist Settlers & the State have told us & are telling us...
#GazaGenocide | #CeasefireForGaza
🧵⬇️
"Palestine is a country without a people; Jews are a people without a country"
- Israel Zangwill, a Zionist, 1901
"Palestine has its inhabitants... twice as thickly populated as USA"
- Zangwill, now looking for a homeland other than Palestine
1904 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_land_wi…
"There was no such thing as Palestinians. When was there an independent Palestinian people with a Palestinian state? It was not as though we came, threw them out & took their country from them. They didn't exist."
- Golda Meir, Ex Israel PM

Rashmi Samant claims #TheVaccineWars by #VivekAgnihotri is based on "facts". She herself was ejected as Oxford Union President after complaints (racism about Malaysia, anti-semitism about Holocaust & transphobia) and claimed Hindu victimhood.
Facts about COVID19 in India 🧵...
The biggest lie was massive undercounting. Journalists recorded anomalies incessantly. Neither Narendra Modi nor Vivek Agnihotri in Vaccine Wars will address the criminal falsification. Academics/Sociologists put deaths at 50 lakh+. Modi's count? 5 lakh...
Narendra Modi's habitual lying applied to COVID19 too; he began gaslighting with a draconian national lockdown at 4 hrs' notice, a "21 day war". The gods spited him: pandemic waves subsided after >730 days. Lockdown itself lasted 68 days, various "Unlock" phases another 90 days..

Seems inundated in cardiological interventions, beating Narendra Modi in being busy. Had no time except to RT dozens & dozens of medical posts.
This changed a couple of days ago: He compiled a list of ~50 Narendra Mod "achievements" and started some Sanatan Dharma peddling...
He layered this with generous doses of hate speech against Islam and Muslims. Familiar replacement theory conspiracies, Muslims got Pakistan, Hindus didn't get Hindustan, Appeasement, "secularism" is a dirty word, etc...

Modi the Mathematician figured out where the 2ab in (a+b)² comes from. You see, no one had taught him that (a+b) * (a+b) inherently produces it.
So he spent his entire sojourn in some Himalayan cave to come up with this explanation...
#ClimateEmergency activists have long despaired of human society acting with any urgency on the issue. Modi the Modifier brilliantly figured out that the way to tackle a global problem is to completely redefine it. The climate hasn't changed, it is humans who are getting older...
