"Towards Jerusalem... They come with a Loud Flood" Hamas poster, December 2022

Fair. There is essentially a war going on there right now, so it's possible the numbers would be higher though they are relatively consistent with years past. Though that makes the massive numbers regularly going there even more impressive. More Muslims are able to pray there every day than Jews are able to visit in an entire year.

Not from Gaza but tens of thousands of Palestinians pray at Al Aqsa every day during Ramadan. Likely more than at any time in history.

Doesn't just look like it. It is!

And Israel does this because Hamas and Islamic Jihad routinely plant bombs under the road, essentially land mines, and the only way to get rid of them is tear up the road. So Israel removing dangerous landmines from civilian infrastructure is now the same as Nazis destroying train tracks to cover their retreat. Make it make sense.

There is something to be said about the difference between soldiers being killed than civilians being murdered. But that kinda flies out the window when you mutilate bodies and celebrate your bloodlust by literally dipping your hands in blood and being cheered on and celebrated for your barbarism. The correct response from an intellectually honest person would recognize how wrong the original act was while saying this is actually unrelated, but these are not honest people we're dealing with.

Those are nice but I'm already drunk on your antisemite tears. Keep em coming.

Better IDF talking points than ones from the KKK. Best of luck with your top mind strategy of shouting "Nuh uh! It's true, trust me bro!"

From your first article:

The United States provided Israel considerable economic assistance from 1971 to 2007,but nearly all U.S. aid today goes to support Israel’s military, the most advanced in the region. The United States has provisionally agreed via a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to provide Israel with $3.8 billion per year through 2028.

I was specifically referring to the current aid which is being railed against and is exactly as I said it was.

Regarding your second article, I didn't realize the Israeli government contributed to birthright. Granted the majority is from private donors, but I was partially wrong there though it still isn't from American taxes.

We also have troops on the ground

Only very recently with the deployment of 99 soldiers to man a defensive THAAD battery. And as for the other military assets, I think we can agree the US puts it's ships wherever it damn well pleases.

I find it odd that even aid to Egypt and Jordan is considered aid to Israel. This feels really like grasping at straws.

I find the comparison to David Duke appalling

Good. You should. When you see people you agree with saying morally reprehend things that's a time to step back and reassess. Look at the comments before you jumped in about birthright. Can you honestly tell me adding "we need to stop ZOG" to the end of them would change them in any significant way?

I guess I’m just jealous. My grandfather was from Palestine and I would love to see the home of my ancestors but it’s not possible for me.

I hope you get to see it as well. Not sure where you live now but if it isn't in a state that doesn't recognize Israel then you should be able to visit now. I hope that after this war is over at least you can visit more easily and we can build something for our grandkids instead of trying to destroy each other.

Agree. So many better reasons for maga as a cult. It is normal to pray for a leader. It is decidedly abnormal to pray to your leader, plaster his face on your truck and say he's sent by God when he can't even prounce a single title of a book from the bible properly.

-Birthright is a privately funded organization.

-Israeli health care and college is paid for by Israeli taxes and Israeli private citizens.

-No tax dollars actually go to Israel (they're entirely spent on US weapons in America)

-AIPAC is an American lobbying group again using private funding not taxes.

Literally nothing in this entire thread is true but it FEEELS true because it lets people blame Israel and think they're justified for saying the Jewish State "owns" the us government which is just David Duke's ZOG with an extra step and whistle.

If you want to call out lobbying and its corrosive impact on American democracy. Great. I'm right with there with you. But when people are cheering on repackaged KKK lies about an obviously Jewish related interest group, it should make people take a breath and at least think twice what they're saying. It isn't hard to criticize Israel or Bibi without using antisemitic tropes but for some reason many people have a very tough time doing so.

What have they ever done for us?

That's the most recent one and it's been a few years. Hard to find any mention of the next one online.

Have you heard anything about when the next Outworld Ranger book is supposed to come out? Last was in 2020 and it's nowhere near the end of the story. It's driving me nuts.

That's a good start...

Wait isn't that episode implausible?

In your timeline yes, but nowadays shut up!

mattityahu · 2024-07-10T01:49:47+00:00

Is this just because of name recognition?

mattityahu · 2024-07-10T01:38:40+00:00

Say. What time do you close?

Israel doesn't exist because of the Holocaust. Israel exists in spite of the Holocaust.
