@KimIversenShow @jimmy_dore The notion that @RobertKennedyJr is good on some issues therefor ppl should ignore his vile remarks about Palestinians & vote for him is grotesque!

As an Israeli, son of a an Israeli general i find his interview with @RabbiShmuley reprehensible . Calling the city of Jenin a “bomb factory” is unforgivable & excusing the killing of ppl of Jenin then claiming that Israel does not kill civilians only military targets is reprehensible.

My father was a famous Israeli general and I knew everything about our brave Israeli history.

But finally, I spoke with Palestinians who told me their stories. I resisted, but finally realized the truth about our history.

My latest at @Mondoweiss:

mondoweiss.net/2023/06/55-yea… Americans, who give Israel billions of dollars each year, may be interested to know that May and June are monumentally difficult months in the collective memories of Israelis and Palestinians.

Violence is escalating against Palestinians at a dangerous rate and the world is doing nothing. The lies that @netanyahu spreads, unchecked, on platforms like @jordanbpeterson enables this violence

We must call out these people, organize, and take action to protect Palestinians We cannot pretend like noting is happening.

Please contact your Rep or Senator and tell them: we must demand guarantees for the safety and security of Palestinians. No one is protecting Palestinians.

If you do please leave a comment below or quote tweet and tag them

Last year I said if 100,000 Israelis rallied they could end the siege of Gaza immediately. This weekend 100,000 rallied in Tel Aviv. But they are protesting threats to their rights as privileged people in the apartheid system - not ongoing and increasing threats to Palestinians There is no good Zionism. It is a racist and violent ideology. If the protesters in Israel really want democracy and justice they must demand an end to Zionism.

During Blinken's visit to Palestine he said “We look to both sides not to take steps that actually make things worse.”

But the US has legitimized and supported Jewish terrorism against Palestinians: mintpressnews.com/us-legitimizin… The US complicity in the recent violence in Palestine goes beyond the yearly $3.8 BILLION that the US gives to Israel. Last May 2022 the Biden administration took the Jewish Defense League JDL off the list of known terrorist organizations. This had major ramifications

Just watched Farha on Netflix directed by @DarinSallam. Wow. It was not what I expected. It personalizes the Nakba in a way that's rare. It's a movie that hits you very hard. Gutsy. You sit at the edge of your seat. So well made. It deserves awards. .@FarhaFilm grabs you emotionally. The beginning is beautiful and idyllic scenery. The portrayal of the village felt so real.

Israel just elected its most openly fascist government. But we shouldn't be surprised. Zionism has been influenced by fascism from the start.

Listen to the most recent episode of Committing High Treason with @yaakov_shapiro on your podcast app or here: committinghighreason.com/fascist-influe… From the episode description: After jettisoning their Jewish values, the founding fathers of Zionism used a potpourri of ideologies to recast their Jewishness in the image of 19th-century philosophical ideas.

I've been in Hebron, West Bank. Settlers have taken over Palestinian homes. Israeli soldiers are everywhere harassing Palestinians

We saw soldiers holding 2 Palestinian girls back from going home. @Issaamro and I tried to help. This soldier shouted "Get the f*** out of here!"🧵 First a little background on Hebron: there are countless checkpoints and movement barriers that deny Palestinians the right to live freely in their city. Areas allow & forbidden for Palestinians

Here @Issaamro has one foot in a forbidden area and one foot in a permitted area!
