Today is Arthur Ruppin day. This Zionist pioneer needs to be remembered for creating legal land purchase framework🇮🇱. A little thread🧵
@CptAllenHistory @AmichaiChikli @eurojewcong @WorldJewishCong @Chabad @ISGAP 1/8 You can hate Israeli policy without lying about property law & documented land transfers.

2/ In 1941, Iraq was under the leadership of Prime Minister Rashid Ali al-Gaylani, who allied with the Axis powers of Italy & Nazi Germany during WWII. This alliance led to the dissemination of antisemitic propaganda throughout Iraq.

Think the UN stands for fairness?
Think again. Over decades, this international body has systemically targeted Israel with an antisemitic agenda, bullying the Jewish state through biased resolutions and funding programs that reject Israel’s right to exist.
A🧵to uncover the unsettling truth behind the UN's actions. 1. The @UN is systemically antisemitic. For decades, it has bullied one country, Israel, in all its bodies. The UN has passed more resolutions against Israel than all other countries combined. This is not just a numbers game; it's a deliberate attempt to delegitimize the Jewish state.
