1 Antisemitism is a pillar of anti-Israel activism.
Wherever the Palestinian flag is raised in the west - antisemitism will be one of the key pillars holding it aloft.
2. You only have to look at the demographic history of the MENA region to know that the major ethnic cleansing that took place in the last 100 years was Jews being removed from arab lands. An obvious and undeniable truth.
3 Most of what is said about Israel by pro-Palestinian campaigners is absolute garbage. Fiction - demonising lies, bunkum and poppycock.
You therefore have to wonder - why anti-Israel activists have to tell so many lies. Why are they scared of the truth.
4. Reverse causality. The conflict ONLY exists today because the Soviet Union, despotic Arab states and UNRWA wanted perpetual conflict. They deliberately created a near unsolvable puzzle between 1948 and 1967.
And then they blamed Israel for everything.
5. The worst offenders against Palestinian human rights are Palestinians and their Arab brothers. From Lebanon to Egypt, Kuwait to Syria and back to Gaza - there has been untold violence, repression, Apartheid & slaughter.
yet nobody cares -least of all BDS, the BBC or Guardian
6. If Israel acted exactly the same but had a Muslim majority - all those fighting against it today would hold it aloft as a shining example of Muslim tolerance, society and democracy.
The hate is all about Israel's Jewish identity.

An @BBC news thread - for those who do not understand JUST HOW BAD the BBC Hamas propaganda documentary was. There have been several key scoops - and I thought I would bring the issues together.
Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
First of all the big one. The BBC used the son of a Hamas official as its star performer - the narrator of the documentary. A catastrophic failure of editorial standards. For months - BBC's crew follow this child - but doesn't know who the father is (in image below)? No way.
In addition - one of the camera crew - who followed the kid around - posted celebrations of the October 7 atrocities. These pro-Hamas agents are the people the BBC paid and relied on for the 'integrity' of their documentary.
Dear @bbcnews. No I am not finished. We have yet another problem with your Hamas propaganda documentary.
You know the young chef and her elder sister Nourhan - who appear as one of the subjects in your piece?
We already know that their father was a Captain in the police force (you know - the people who enforce the laws of Hamas). And we also know he spent two years in an Israeli jail during the first Intifada...
Well now it turns out that the sister Nourhan Attallah (playing all sweet in your documentary) posted this on the evening (19:30) of 27 January 2023.... It was a post liked and loved by family and friends.
Another day - another reason to talk about how @bbcnews has turned into a UK version of Al-Jazeera.
The BBC team went to Dearborn Michigan - and posted a clip with an interview of three 'random' Arab Americans.
Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
The BBC journo in Dearborn is Merlyn Thomas - a BBC Verify hack I once caught using an IRGC controlled journalist as a reliable witness.
Anyway, she is in Dearborn and describes the city largely 'liberal'
(the WSJ have called it 'America's Jihad Capital').
In the short clip two of the three (random people) viciously attack Trump. One says Trumps comments on Gaza are 'unlawful and delusional'. Another calls Trump 'illiterate', saying he has never read a book. Extracts in clip below.
Yesterday we saw horrific images being streamed from Gaza once more, as Hamas conducted another hostage release circus. Some will try to deceive you into believing that the creation of Hamas - and its actions - are somehow the fault of Israeli behaviour.
A thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Oct 7 was the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust - and Hamas also captured 100s of Jews - taking them hostage. Yesterday we saw three being returned - the horrific images a visual reminder of genocidal abuse..
Since Oct 7 - faced with inexcusable violence and genocidal intent - anti-Israel activists - and toxic antisemitic NGOs - have tried to victim blame.... suggesting that somehow Israel was at fault for the actions of Hamas.
There comes a time when you have to accept there is no saving @bbcnews, and we are way past that point.
I just had a look at a major investigation they just published on an IDF strike in Lebanon. Anti-Zionist student journalism does not even begin to cover it.
Thread ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Last week I put out a thread on the journalist - an activist with a history of anti-Zionist activity - and someone who has worked for Iranian and Qatari propaganda rags.
Who at the BBC employs people like this to write about Israel?
This was an expensive investigation - and the article came with its own documentary. The piece tht painted Israel as a 'spiteful enemy'. The journalist wanted to talk up civilian casualties while working hard to downplay Hezbollah involvement.
