this post is one giant non sequitur. Yes. A Palestinian who was beheaded in the West Bank for being……gay. What your question should have been is “ what are Israelis doing to protect gay Palestinians from Hamas and Hezzbollah who cut their heads off for being gay”. At least that would have been intellectually honest. I made comment about Tel Aviv because if you had ever been there, which you clearly haven’t, you’d know it’s a gorgeous modern metropolis that looks like a combination of San Fran and Miami Beach….where you can proudly be gay/lesbian. Your post explains a lot. You’re one of those who has read a lot of textbooks but never actually experienced the places and cultures you claim expertise. In short…. not to be taken seriously. But you be you…keep reading those books and posting
You mean, like, in stark contrast to CAIR, which is totally not a front organization for Hamas, right?
That's unfortunate. I guess the Jewish students who demonstrated against the atrocities in Gaza are antisemites too. As are the Rabbis who urged Israel and the IDF to show restraint in Gaza.
South Africa had nice cities with people who liked Western liberal culture and they were an apartheid state too. So what? Shit we are building interment camps here for our own ethnic cleansing project. Also, I doubt you've been to every place you've criticized so that means jack shit. This is just more of your "bar fight" bullshit that you traffic in here. In this case its even more disingenuous because you dont actually like liberal values or anything gay, you are just trolling people. You would run at the sight of a rainbow flag over here and call it grooming lol.
Even if they were, there is no Palestinian state for them to advocate on behalf of, nor have they had the balls to suggest that criticism of Hamas and its policies is a form anti-Muslim bigotry, much less have that accepted by much of the US government
I have no problem with fair criticism of the ADL or Israel, but the linked article is in the context of accepting an endorsement from CAIR while cutting ties with the ADL.
What do you mean "accepting an endorsement?" CAIR released their own independent statement saying they supported the NEA vote, for a policy that isnt even finalized, because the executive committee has the last word. If they adopt CAIR's materials on the holocaust or anti-Semitism, get back to me.
I am Jewish. Screw the ADL. They betrayed American Jews by trading defense of civil liberties for defense of Israel's government.
Yeah, I’ve been among the most vocal people here about recent antisemitism, and while I doubt the NEA did it entirely for the “right” reasons, the ADL has basically been a political arm of Israel for a while now and has largely abandoned their more inclusive message of times past. They made their own bed, shouldn’t be surprised when stuff like this happens. I just hate the optics of it, given the times we are in.
So many things wrong with this - the first being it’s an extremely offensive stereotype “The American Jew”
To the OP: Teachers union reveals true colors behind closed doors at annual convention Teachers union reveals true colors behind closed doors at annual convention
about 2 years ago I found myself at a symposium of Jews and Christians. In the Q&A part of this program, I asked the 5 Jewish people on the dais the question of why the American Jew votes almost 100% with the democrats and one gave this answer and the other 4 agreed. Not sure why you would find this statement offensive!
Making a stereotypical claim about what "the American Jew" values is about as offensive and silly as a non-Christian claiming what "the American Christian" values. BTW, on this thread we've had claims from conservatives that the American Jew is always liberal and that the left hates all things Jewish. I guess we can say that the American conservative is very confused.
Morris was not forced to resign over the allegations about his stepdaughter that were publicly known in 1979. He was forced to resign due to sexual harassment complaints from SPLC staff members. Whichever Too Hot poster claimed that is either misinformed or is just clout chasing. https://www.washingtonpost.com/inve...5149e5a2fda_story.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com
