@AmerigoWatson Yeah being an antisemite and being a dumbass (even if you are a doctor) tend to go hand in hand.

@SleimanJO_ Care to challenge anything on a logical basis or are you happy to just give edgy remarks?.

@briebriejoy That is a straw man argument. No one is saying anyone should die. The death was a tragic unintentional outcome. But should someone be able to defend people from this harassment? Or MUST people just put up with it?.

Looks like @Doctor_N_masih, the doctor that wanted to "vanish every Jew" has himself vanished from X. Good riddance.

@givenconclusion @RachelMoiselle Your hunch is wrong. For years I worked with Palestinians from Gaza and the West Bank, other Arabs, and the international community on humanitarian and water projects to address Gaza’s water crisis, among other issues. I have close connections with many Palestinians.

🧵1. Guys honestly I’m loving this “ok rape triangle” reply. Thanks @Mr_Andrew_Fox. When you’re talking with someone who has support for Hamas in their name, you know a priori that the discussion is not going to be productive.

@ompranav108 @EFischberger Yes, for clarity: I am referring specifically to the antisemitism landscape in the West, particularly US, Canada, Australia, UK to an extent, and some other parts of Europe.

@pjpmccarthy I know this might be a hard concept for you to understand, but sometimes the meaning of euphemisms is clear. E.g. assassination - when someone says “take out so and so” they don’t mean take them out to dinner.

What is up with this self indulgence and inflated sense of self importance? Bassem, do not flatter yourself. It is Hezbollah operatives Israel is targeting, not millionaire comedians living in America.
And suddenly my phone , our security system , my kids tablets are time bombs that detonate at the whims of one country . You win Israel . Not a single politician or late night show talks about this ? None of that worth the news ? Nothing “funny” can come out of it ? The whole.

@ImpishPartier Yes that’s true, once I posted I realized that there are all sorts of other variations. I thought the anti-LGBTQ sentiment would fit in the militant Islamic-Extreme Right intersect.

@HowidyHamza For everyone that's on the ground, or connected personally to the situation, it's clear. Hamza, like other Israelis and Palestinians gets his facts and news fresh from the source, including friends and family. It's extremely obnoxious that many Westerners have a different version.

@Partisangirl In the original image there's no face mask. That's an edit. Whether the guy is Hamas (or PA security) is unclear.

@HowidyHamza One of these harm-causing leaders was Palestinian - Haj Al Amin Al Husseini. He chose antagonism over pragmatics at every junction of policy formation. This legacy endures until today. I have written about this:.

@piersmorgan There are real explanations for this. One is that compared to Hezbollah and Iran, Hamas's communication networks are lower-tech, thus harder to penetrate. Two, since at least the 1970s, Israel has been infiltrating Palestinian terror communication networks in Gaza. Hamas has.

@HowidyHamza @IDF I don’t get how occurrences like this don’t help convince people that Hamas is actually detrimental to the well being of Palestinians - regardless of how “pro” or “anti” Israel you are.

@yani_pod I would say the parents of a dying child give a shit, no? There are entire movements of Israelis and Palestinians dedicated to peace. Just because they don't hold the "dismantle Israel" ideology does mean that they don't exist and that they don't do good things, on the ground.

This is what I mean when I say people have lost touch with the meaning of words. The strike specifically targeted operatives from the military branches of Hezbollah. Their personal devices. Terrorism targets civilians. This is not what that is.
I strongly condemn the massive terror attack in Lebanon and Syria, which injured thousands of people. A brutal escalation of violence. Silence is not an option. An international investigation is called for. The bloodshed must end.

@eitangilad613 This is not a take. This is just a fact. Whether I have read a particular text or not does change my line of ancestry or values.

@Partisangirl Right… because that’s obviously the path to a better future: forever wars with Israel. Easy to advocate for when you’re sitting in the security and safety of Australia I guess.

@JewishWarrior13 Just wrote about this. One cautionary note I would add: Iranians are very patient and good strategists. This part of why the regime is so dangerous. They are also resilient and cannot be underestimated.

@HowidyHamza She thinks being a Jew gives her special status and special license to advocate for the destruction of a sovereign state.

Really? This is the problem? Feminists?. Not the fact that the "morality" police of the Ayatollah regime regularly brutalize women? The point of the Iranian woman's protest flew over your head like a ballistic missile.
No-one is more obsessed with the idea of Muslim women taking their clothes off as western liberal feminists.

@aziz0nomics Of course he’s pleased. His objective is to maximize destruction and suffering and minimize chances at peace.

@pjpmccarthy Oh yeah buddy I’m sure he didn’t mean anything bad. He of course wouldn’t wish harm on Jews (as you see in these screenshots). Interpretational acrobatics.

Same logic applies to October 7. “Resistance against the settler colonialists by any means necessary is justified. I am proud”. “There was no atrocity, no rape, no murdering children. It’s all Zionist genocide-inciting propaganda.”.
Anti-Semites: H*tler was right; what he did to the Jews was justified. Also Anti-Semites: The Jews invented the Holocaust; it never happened.

@AdinHaykin1 Don't forget good ol' Hajj Al Amin Al Husseini, whose main innovation was fusing Nazi race antisemitism with the old perpetual 2nd-class citizen antisemitism of the Muslim world.

@HowidyHamza I honestly believe that eventually the worst rhetoric (antisemitic, illiberal, and pro-terror) in the anti-Israel crowd will be seen as moral corruption on par with admiration for Stalin's purges, denial of the Khmer Rouge genocide, enthusiasm for Mao's Cultural Revolution, etc.

@givenconclusion @RachelMoiselle It’s a strange delusion that you have here, where you think I have invested time into cross-community collaboration simply to make myself feel good, like some kind of drug. But hey, whatever makes YOU feel good.

Peddling old conspiracies of the Jewish desire for world domination again I see. Classy. Let's assume you mean Israelis and not Jews for sec. You're saying that 0.09% of the population might dominate the world. Rational or just antisemitic (sorry, I mean anti-Israeli)?
Yesterday Palestine , today Lebanon tomorrow the whole Middle East and after tomorrow the whole planet . Because Israel needs to be safe even if the whole world is destroyed.

@jasonhickel From what I understand they are destroying military capabilities that would be extremely dangerous in the hands of jihadists.

@pjpmccarthy Ok you do your acrobatics and play games. I'll draw my conclusions based on the evidence available in the real world. Nothing is certain. Even statistical certainy is 95%. That's irrelevant. But here you have hard evidence leading you to a logical conclusion.

This is dumb-dumb acrobatics. Nazism: Let's exterminate the Jews. Zionism: Let's build a homeland for Jews to protect ourselves from violence. Pretty damn contradictory if you ask me.
Unfortunately, there is no contradiction between Nazism and Zionism. Their goals of emptying Europe of its Jewish population aligned. They are also both racist, supremacist and colonial ideologies. The Haavara Agreement between the Nazis and Zionist organisations signed in 1933
