@gaylenrs @afalkhatib They’re Marxist-Leninist socialists who feed off of Marxist-Leninist ideas about revolution mixed with Iranian regime propaganda. They see Iran as a revolutionary state fighting to destroy the colonialist West and its allies. Israel is a US ally. It’s also a Jewish state in…
@gaylenrs @afalkhatib …the umma, which in Islamist circles means it exists on Muslim land and must be destroyed. The Marxist-Leninist part comes primarily from the PFLP and Marxist professors. The umma part comes from Iran, its proxies and supportive clergy. Look how horribly Hamas treats Gazans.…

@gaylenrs @afalkhatib …and Jonathan Greenblatt, Ronald Lauder and other Jewish leaders who turned legitimate criticism of Netanyahu’s Israel into antisemitism. What happens to Gazan now might be even more horrific than what has happened so far in this war. Gaza might even cease to exist as…
@gaylenrs @afalkhatib …anything but a depopulated province of Israel soon to become Trump beach resorts and hotels. Many of the pro-Palestine activists will blame (((Zionists))) for this, not themselves, just as their mentors taught them.
