thanks to the leftbook modmins dealing with this nonsense
the idea of Zionism, which is a colonial idea should be easily and quickly understood in England
The literal founder of Zionism, Theodor Herzl
All I said to a friend of mine this morning was “is Palestine not allowed to defend itself?” after she spoke about Hamas being evil and she immediately responded “reading Norman Finkelstein are we?” and logged out.
- what’s wrong with that?
- yes actually.
Ask her if she takes the side of pedo and wife murderer Alan Dershowitz
I don’t need to ask anymore, as her status this morning was reccomending people read his book “The Case for Israel” to learn the truth.
What truth would that be? How to deny Normal Finkelstein tenure after he tore your book apart so thoroughly that you had no real response except lying?
I believe I have the solution. Establish a new Jewish nation in New Jersey and allow NYC to be added to this new nation as the capital city. It's a larger chunk of land, and I think it's geographically prettier. As a Jew in North America who has been in a birthright trip and seen all there is that Israel has to offer, and who has been privileged enough to travel throughout much of North America, this new nation and its access to New York City and it's municipal water, critical for making a good bagel, is far more crucial to the health and well being of Jews such as myself than having access to Jerusalem.
don’t take my favourite state. Take one of the also ran states like… Delaware?
Really? New Jersey is your favorite state? But like...why though?
Or did you mean NYC?
No, New Jersey. New Jersey Devils, Kevin Smith movies, Fountains of Wayne (I actually have a weird connection to the song “Stacey’s Mom” via my ex), Pork Roll, the Boardwalk and so on, etc. I’ve been to several states (including New York) and New Jersey remains the favourite.
I don’t understand why people are so opposed to germans having their own state, Germany for Germans
Manifest Destiny is the belief that settlers should have their own country. That is all it is.
In order to achieve this, the occupation and colonization of the indigenous nations is not necessary. In fact, before the conflict began (which as I've said was not started by the settlers), both the colonies and the Native Americans had portions of the region to control...That, in my opinion, is manifest destiny. That is what it originally meant to those who invented the idea.
and anyway, Zionism was started by Christians that wanted to bring about the apocalypse
ya, the whole Christian fundamentalist synergy of Zionism is damn sus
the conflicts of interest in that are so deep
Shit it's almost like the state is always evil whoknew fuck maybe the sexy dtf anarchists with fat asses?
