I am going to ban you from this site for violating our guidselines which require civility in the commnts, and that would indludee dalling this writer a '"terrorist." But I'll leave your ignorant tirade up for bit to allow other readers to comment on it.

Suffice to say, far from hating Jews as you've assumed, Jews are some of my best relatives, including first and foremost, my wife, and then her two sisters and their husband, all Jews and all opposed to Iasrael's genocide. Ghag goes for their lovely and talented children, my nieces and nephews, their spouses , and my sister's husbane, Jews all and opposed to Israel's Nazi-like genocide in Gaza and the West Bank. You should know too that many Jews, despairing at the theocratic, tribalist apartheid state that Israel has beome and at its criminal war on Palestinians, that they have either emigrated, mostly to the US and Europe , or have obtained European or us passports as safe escape guarantees. As an israeli douple I met who are temporarily in residence at Cambridge University told me, they don't want their kids to be drafted to fight fo fight Israel's genocidal wars and have already gotten European passports.

The truth I presented to you seemed to have hit you so hard that you made some simple typos... That's ok. I understand.

.

I'm curious - when you face with the truth, do you run away, or do try to defend your point? If you do not defend your point, and "ban me" (really made me laugh), than your position is nulled. In addition, trying to "shame me" (again made me laugh) by keeping my "ignorant tirade up" comment for others to see... Really?? I though you graduated from high school long ago...

.

Let's talk about "ignorant":

1. I was not "dalling" 😂 (calling) you a terrorist... I said that you are so blinded by your lack of knowledge that it made you vulnerable to brainwash by the extremisms of the world. And you proved it in your "article".

.

2. You said "Jews are some of my best relatives", including your wife and others who "opposed to Iasrael's genocide" (it is spelled Israel...😂). First, you are not a Jew (relax,... I'm not holding it against you). This is important because there is a "nucleus" in every Jew that is not present in others (this applies to every culture on this planet). Jews who decide to collaborate with their haters (again, don't get too emotional... I am not "dalling" you a hater...), at the end they paid the same price that all Jews paid.

Example: https://www.instagram.com/p/DMDYxaOxVtb/?img_index=5&igsh=dzF2cDNxcTEwYmN0

I'm sure you know that Eva Brown was a Jew; the KAPOS were Jews; etc. Did they fair better? No! Every culture, including us, the Jews, have a few apples that forgot how to behave like apples... I cannot defend them because it is a choice 🤷🏻‍♂️

.

3. I am a very proud Israeli. I served in the IDF. Here is why your statement "...Israel's Nazi-like genocide in Gaza and the West Bank" does not make sense: (a) if you know anything about the Nazis, you would know that they wanted to turn the WHOLE WORLD into an Aryan nation (sounds familiar - Iran, Hamas, Muslim Brotherhood, etc.). Israel only wants to be left alone. That's it! Nothing else. We are not colonizers (like the Ottoman Empire, the British Empire, the Muslim conquers, the NAZIS...etc.) (b) during my service in the IDF as a paratrooper, we brought countless Lebanese and Syrians and "Palestinians", over many years, into Israel in a secured manner (can't talk about the details) for medical help, for critical, non-critical and even elective procedures(!), including babies, pregnant women, people that Assad injured and maimed and the list is long... That is NOT what "normal" enemies do to each other. We value life! The protocol of every mission was simple: if there is a hint of endangering lives, you fold, you abort, you go away. But you would not know that because you were not there (don't get emotional here... I'm not calling you names).

.

4. You (not "you" you... it's a figure of speech) attack us endlessly, and we defend endlessly. Until comes a point where those who we gave life to, work, economical, medical and other countless help to the Gazans and west bank, OPENLY declare that they want to erase us, do you think we'll be sitting idle and let them??? NO! If you have not seen the 45 minute videos that Hamas shot during their Oct. 7 massacre, and they posted it on social media, and was shown to whoever is willing, than you are missing a key piece of reality. Golda said, rightly so: "if the Palestinians would love their children as much as they hate us, we will have peace". Instead, their children become "martyrs" (aka death...).

.

Yes. this is long, but far from hateful comment.

I don't have space for hate (I value my life too much to hate).

If you cannot see the distinction, than I suggest we get on the phone for a debate.
