I believe there is a real difference between being Jewish and being a Zionist. The first is a religion, with the usual schisms, opinions, secular & fundementalist sides etc. The second is a supporter of the rogue, nuclear, Apartheid nation in the Middle East, NAZI in character, so clearly Irony is not dead. Israel remembers The Warsaw Ghetto, now it creates the same in Gaza.
I also don't believe all Catholics were in the Irish Republican Army either, btw...
I suggest readers who want to understand why Zionism is terrible and actually the enemy of Judaism, should watch Kim Iversen's recent Rumble interview with a New York rabbi who explains it all.
Zionists stole the Jewish identity to justify their land grab of Palestine, to hide their human rights abuses behind the deep sympathy most people have for the victims of the Holocaust, and to cancel all critics with their incessant use of the term “anti-semite”. Israel is a Zionist state, not a Jewish state. All Jews are not Zionists. In fact, most Zionists are Christian.
Then why do only 30% of Jews worldwide live in Israel? More than half of all Jews live in the U.S. Of course some Jews living outside Israel identify as Zionists, but there are also many Jews living in Israel who are not Zionists. The terms Jew, Israeli, and Zionist are not equivalent.
As an anti-zionist secular Jewish person I think there are a lot more anti-zionists than you think. It depends a lot on how you define Zionism when you ask the question.
My understanding, which is not extensive, is that Zionism is an outgrowth of 19th century European ideas of nationalism, one could even say tribalism, which ultimately culminated in a couple of devastating wars in the 20th century, and the modern state of Israel is an extension of that. Nationalism in and of itself is not necessarily a bad thing, but the "Racial Purity" component of it is. Obviously, there is no such thing as "Racial Purity," which is a fictitious concept meant to manipulate masses of people into accepting an economic paradigm that degrades them while posing a convenient minority to pin the blame of degradation upon.
Anytime it's Me versus You, I'm gonna pick me. Surprise 😮 But Zionists have turned nasty, AND they have turned NAZI. There is zero cultural reflection on how violent and oppressive Zionist policy is or how it resembles the German NAZIs treatment of the Jews. A homeland, FIVE THOUSAND years ago ain't their homeland again, now. Or are we also returning the ancient homelands of Carthage? Chalcadea? Assyria? How about Cheyenne territory? Apache? Wankers.
"Race" is a political construct having zero basis in biology. Personally I only recognise the Human Race. Perhaps it's rude but convenient shorthand for "culture" or skin colour?
Actually, people "discriminate" in hundreds of ways and it has nothing to do with bullying. We all choose our friends, have favourite foods, colours, clothes, styles, teams etc. W e choose the church/temple/synagogue we attend. All of the above, and more, are discriminatory. Bullies, on the other hand, will attempt to bully regardless of the person. What they pick on is the excuse they use.
It is illogical to say "race" does not exist. There are many species and sub species in the Animal Kingdom with subtle differences that most humans cannot differentiate, but are genetically different. "Race" is species/sub-species.
We share 90+% of our DNA with bovines, yet no one would suggest we are the same animal. Races are real. Some are better at some things than others, just as some individuals are better at some things than others. So what? Denying race is foolish. Everyone should be proud of his/her genetic heritage. It doesn't mean one is inherently better than another.
You stated: "there's really no racism. Or, rather, there is, of course, but it is an instance of the more general malady, which is bullying. " As "proof" you say it is bullying, because it happens in mono-racial societies. You can't have "racism" without "race". I know Chinese and Arabs that don't like Negroes because they perceive them as violent. That has nothing to do with bullying. I have met American Indians and Blacks that openly admit they don't like "Whites" because of perceived wrongdoings of long ago. That has nothing to do with bullying. Many people of all races, don't like Germans because of WWII. That has nothing to do with bullying. You can't make people like each other. There are people who dislike and avoid others solely because of their race". That only becomes a problem if they cause harm through violence, economic, or other means. Of those that do dislike people solely because of their race, the number who actually act out is relatively small. I agree that there are bullies and violent thugs in all races, but what racism is considered to be is much more than just bullying. Even Mohammed Ali understood that most people, given a choice, prefer to be with people like themselves, bullies or otherwise.
The Jews love to talk about their “race”…….Hogwash. The Jews are as diverse as “Americans” and are anything but a monolithic Race. What the vast majority of the Jews are not, are Semites. The very few remaining “Semitic” Jews left in the world…and their descendants…..live in Palestine and are being bombed into extinction.
The “true” Jewish homeland is the territory that is now Ukraine. That is more than likely why Zelensky and the zionists are….with the help of the US….depopulating that area as we speak.
Mostly correct, but genetic studies have shown that virtually all of the Ashkenazi (non-Semitic) Jews are related at the level of 7th cousin. The race thing is fluid, but the reality is that, historically, wherever Jews have lived in any numbers, they have self segregated. It is only in the last 150 years that people, regardless of their origin were NOT born, raised, married and died within 20 miles of their birthplace. That meant most people were related at some level.
Gained a conscience - or finally accepting that the truth will out anyway - may as well get ahead of it. Sometimes, as in Ukrainian "Russia did it!" lies, the truth will out within minutes. Unless and until the internet is absolutely and rigidly controlled and curated, may as well tell the truth. Not a conscience, perhaps, but a recognition that reality will bite hard, in some cases.
Millions in the Arab world are in the streets right now, even late at night. This is the beginning of the end - the only thing I can think of that might save their country from catastrophic ruin - is if Israel immediately announces a cease fire to its ongoing ethnic cleansing. Otherwise, the only question remaining is how much of the world are they going to take with them - is it going to be a re-enactment of Samson at the Temple?
It took 3 years for covid BS to become 'mistakes', 18 months for the war in Ukraine to be seen as a waste of money and a hopeless cause, but barely a week for reports of baby beheading to be retracted, misleading reports of peace protests to be retracted, UK support for Israel to be declared on MSM as complicity in warcrimes, ex Israeli PM's and the ambassador to the UK to be questioned by MSM about the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and to reveal themselves by saying they don't care because Palestinian children are nazis, and for MSM to doubt dubious reports that the Palestinians blew up their own hospital.
They have overplayed their hand this time. I hope it brings the whole house of cards down.
And why is it always necessary when stating an established fact concerning Israel - to back it by the assurance you aren't anti-semitic? The moon is 280,000 miles from Earth: do your other beliefs, associations , credentials, have any bearing on that?
Right now, one of the most important considerations is Motive.
Why would Hamas attack a hospital in which their own Palestinian people are, and the services of which they, themselves may need, in addition to Hamas needing to maintain the support and trust of the Palestinian people???
On the other hand, Israel attacking the hospital serves two purposes, one to show how brutal they can be in an attempt to strike fear into Hamas and the Palestinian people as Israel sends their version of a "message", and of course on the other hand, Israel is attempting to systematically destroy all infrastructure and services within Gaza, in attempt to get the Palestinians to leave the region and flee to other countries.
And that Russia supposedly bombed a civilian market in a region already occupied by the Russians, until a reflection of the incoming missile on several cars exposed the direction from which it was fired, exposing the Ukraine.
It will be no different with this attack on the hospital, as evidence will arise proving it to be an Israeli missile.
By the way Asshole, if you actually had the slightest inkling of Savvy, you would have realised that my comment is Independent of the news item, and is an appeal to common sense and rationality.
However this evidently didn't penetrate your Thick Skull!!!
It appears to be in the war plans of Hamas to lure the IDF into a ground force invasion.
They would have figured on a certain number of prior civilian casualties as the IDF Air Force collapsed entire buildings, killing everyone inside.
This can go on for only so long until the IDF is forced to conduct ground force operations.
_________
If so, the IDF will take high casualty rates.
The IDF is not the Russian Armed Forces - Chechen Forces and Masters of Street Warfare close in work and who removed very well dug in Ukrainian - NATO Forces, the latter having spent several years prior to the SMO creating underground fortifications in Eastern Ukrainian cities, now gone, with cities rebuilt of underway.
_________
Like NATO - Ukrainian Forces, IDF Forces are overrated, not having taken on a peer competitor and having the benefit of air cover.
Not the case in this urban conflict, perhaps the reason for a delayed foray and the delivery of US bunker buster munitions.
Yet another reason stems from the appearance of US - UK naval battle groups, out of proportion to needs and so suggesting there was another plan here.
The Israeli Prime Minister did remark - "I will not go into detail of what will come next, but I will say that it is just the beginning".
They knew it was coming.
_________
Europe is awash with US-NATO-UK small armaments sold out of The Ukraine. Small includes shoulder launched missiles.
One may expect damaging or very damaging actions in European cities by pro-Palestinian or anti-Israeli factions, not necessarily the same thing.
There is a reason this campaign was called Al-Aqsa Flood, arising from events of October 4th and one that does not sit well with the entire World of Islam.

Washington's unconditional support for Tel Aviv has proved disastrous for Washington and Tel Aviv.
The Decline of The West is written in the centres of Western Liberal Democracy, so called . . . https://les7eb.substack.com/
After 16 years of being confined in the world's largest concentration camp, with electricity 3 hours a day and having to bathe in salt water because the Israelis limit that supply as well, it's really no surprise to see armed Gazans attempt a prison break.
How is ANY change a bad idea for them? Don't you get it? They're desperate. They don't give a damn anymore. Just like the Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto in 1943.
I wasn't suggesting that any change is a bad idea however it would be a good change for the ''WEST'' to simply stop supporting the human rights defying fascist Israeli apartheid regime which is part and package of empire.
It's the duty of the oppressed to resist their oppressors - to me It's looking like they were setup to take the blame for a false claim about the babies in order to justify the response by the IDF.
So now they're being blamed for destroying the hospital - which is unbelievable.
The Gaza strip is considered prime real estate by the settlers and just like a reoccurring scenario found all over the world the indigenous people are an obstacle to developing it.
Then there's that massive oil and natural gasfield which rightfully belongs to the Palestinians.
On a side note - Western politici are lacking the testicular fortitude to stand up to their masters who represent empire as doing so is likely to provoke a negative effect on their next paychecks and long term career prospects - How the proverbial West became US/UK vassal states relates back to the 1930's and second world war where the territories liberated from the Nazi's by the ''allied'' all became submissive and obedient vassal states - not much attention is dedicated to researching who actually financed the Nazi's in the first place.
Well, we can reject the hypotheses that: (a) it’s too flimsy to get behind (as they will get behind any narrative); or (b) they are worried about their reputation (because they have no credibility already). Given this, we should assume that for some reason the powers that be, after lining up behind Israel, are now trying to trim Israel’s sails on this - possibly too late given the reaction in the Street.
USrAel is a ziopathic DEATH CULT and its supporters are weak minded sycophants.
They can dehumanize the Palestinians all they want but it wont change the fact we see clearly their profoundly sick ethnic cleansing evil agenda. At this point i don't even care if israel is whipped off the map. If anyone earned it they earned it ten fold over for the last 80 years... FUCK Israel.. cause that's the game you want to play!!! and that's all you have ever known as a "society" The wondering who indeed!
Interesting to notice MSM reporters aren't buying into the official narrative.
What happened that they're suddenly willing to risk their bread and butter for articles and opinions their editors would under normal circumstances never publish or pay them for.
Bibi is a genius. He’s irredeemably fractured Israel, potentially leading to a civil war once they’ve finished their god given genocidal mission, he’s United all the Arabs, Suni and Shiite, made the US a pariah in the region, and elevated the status of Russia and China. And still the US, in true battered wife fashion, keep him. (To be fair, no one else really wants us anymore. We tend to steal their money.) God bless him.
"After noting that Israel is blaming the blast on a failed rocket launch by Palestinian Islamic Jihad..."
I was immediately reminded of a fire & blast-proof indestructible passport of a horrible nasty **MUSLIM** hijacker that was miraculously found near to the 9/11 crime scene. To my mind, the same amount of strange amateurism exists in both atrocities. Can't have been israel though, it was busy that day.
But it WAS the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. I'm on the side of Palestinian resistance, that is why I don't want to be accused of lies. When it's the Palestinian resistance who killed 500 children, we must say so. It wasn't a targeted hospital by Israel. The Islamist Jihad used Palestinian civilians as human shields.
The israelis have installed very serious surveillance measures upon Gaza. They know what's going on before Gaza itself knows. There's no doubt whatsoever that for the whole time that Hamas was preparing the trigger attack israel was watching and preparing to sacrifice some of its peoples in order to have a reason to demolish Gaza for the continuing land grab from the Euphrates to the Nile. In other words, the '500 children', etc., took one for the team. Netanyahu's IDF took their time to intervene if you look at timelines & listen to eyewitnesses. Initially there was copious 'friendly' fire. Whether that was deliberate or due to fright & sheer terror within the ranks of the teenage soldiers waits to be investigated but it's certainly the fog of war that's currently about. The overall policy I feel is to conduct genocidal warfare by deception. Nothing at all is off the table when world domination [by the Zionists] is being actively pursued. The current murderous spree most certainly includes not only the bombing of hospitals and churches but also the turning off of the entirety of Gaza's life support by these deluded sadistic supremacist psychos and their little megalomaniac helpers in the Zionist Occupied Governments [ZOG] of the U$ofA & the UK, etc. Palestinians are set to be exterminated & all traces of their existence to be removed so the insane Zionist chant of 'for a people without a land, a land without a people' can enter the history books and pose as undeniable truth.
Sorry for the rant but I'm sick to death of the Zionist cult.
So there's no doubt that Hamas was preparing the trigger attack to sacrifice some of its people". It was ultimately Palestinian resistance who did it. Allowed or not, they did it. We can't excuse them. It's not justified. It's not Israel who did it.
As a fruitarian in search of my own personal cancer cure I don't even kill a carrot so it is plain to see & understand that I view killing as wrong in the vast majority of cases & I don't excuse it. I do however retain the right to self defence as do the Palestinians and anyone else in the cosmos. That right of self-defence does not belong exclusively to israel as the media like to continually browbeat us with. The issue in self-defence is proportionality. If my assailant is intent on murdering me framing the moment in 'kill or be killed', my assailant can expect the same treatment without any hesitation. The siege of Gaza is a murderous siege brought about by Zionist assailants/invaders. Some Palestinians are exercising their right to self-defence against the Zionists. QED.
~
As a side note, I see the West Bank is on the verge of being tortured to death even though the israeli-created Hamas has not been installed there. It's ok though! Remote but AI controlled machine gun posts are installed so when Palestinians are mowed down Zionists can always blame AI as the murderer & not israel. Won't be long before the machine gun equipped robot dogs roam those streets to join in the Zionist fun & games before such machines are unleashed everywhere in the world where the Zionist-pronounced 'cattle people' live.
Interesting war manoeuvres developing in the early 21st century if the corporate media are to be believed! You blow your own stuff up like they'd have us believe with the Nordstream pipeline destruction and now this hospital. The world is not going to be fooled this time. The Zionists are exposed whether they be in the U$ofA, occupied Palestine, in the Westminster snake pit or wherever. They are the ones to be dealt with. They are as cancer to the rest of us ordinary humans, Jewish or otherwise.
I believe there is a real difference between being Jewish and being a Zionist. The first is a religion, with the usual schisms, opinions, secular & fundementalist sides etc. The second is a supporter of the rogue, nuclear, Apartheid nation in the Middle East, NAZI in character, so clearly Irony is not dead. Israel remembers The Warsaw Ghetto, now it creates the same in Gaza.
I also don't believe all Catholics were in the Irish Republican Army either, btw...
Gaza concentration camp where they pick them off for fun..

Your comment has a very definite ring of truth to it.
Actually, people "discriminate" in hundreds of ways and it has nothing to do with bullying. We all choose our friends, have favourite foods, colours, clothes, styles, teams etc. W e choose the church/temple/synagogue we attend. All of the above, and more, are discriminatory. Bullies, on the other hand, will attempt to bully regardless of the person. What they pick on is the excuse they use.

An obvious lie begs the question: how many more lies have been passed off? Lying is a habit or policy, and usually involves more of the same.
The Israelis have lied innumerable times to cover their atrocities. They still deny having nuclear weapons..
- A hypothesis thus far.
- The size of the US - UK carrier battle group leads to speculation that this was intended as a prelude to more.
They’d best be careful; they could go the way of the USS Liberty…
"After noting that Israel is blaming the blast on a failed rocket launch by Palestinian Islamic Jihad..."
I was immediately reminded of a fire & blast-proof indestructible passport of a horrible nasty **MUSLIM** hijacker that was miraculously found near to the 9/11 crime scene. To my mind, the same amount of strange amateurism exists in both atrocities. Can't have been israel though, it was busy that day.
But it WAS the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. I'm on the side of Palestinian resistance, that is why I don't want to be accused of lies. When it's the Palestinian resistance who killed 500 children, we must say so. It wasn't a targeted hospital by Israel. The Islamist Jihad used Palestinian civilians as human shields.
The israelis have installed very serious surveillance measures upon Gaza. They know what's going on before Gaza itself knows. There's no doubt whatsoever that for the whole time that Hamas was preparing the trigger attack israel was watching and preparing to sacrifice some of its peoples in order to have a reason to demolish Gaza for the continuing land grab from the Euphrates to the Nile. In other words, the '500 children', etc., took one for the team. Netanyahu's IDF took their time to intervene if you look at timelines & listen to eyewitnesses. Initially there was copious 'friendly' fire. Whether that was deliberate or due to fright & sheer terror within the ranks of the teenage soldiers waits to be investigated but it's certainly the fog of war that's currently about. The overall policy I feel is to conduct genocidal warfare by deception. Nothing at all is off the table when world domination [by the Zionists] is being actively pursued. The current murderous spree most certainly includes not only the bombing of hospitals and churches but also the turning off of the entirety of Gaza's life support by these deluded sadistic supremacist psychos and their little megalomaniac helpers in the Zionist Occupied Governments [ZOG] of the U$ofA & the UK, etc. Palestinians are set to be exterminated & all traces of their existence to be removed so the insane Zionist chant of 'for a people without a land, a land without a people' can enter the history books and pose as undeniable truth.
Sorry for the rant but I'm sick to death of the Zionist cult.
I believe that “Israel didn’t know about it” like I believe that the US ( AND Israel) didn’t know 9/11 was coming.
Which is to say, they’re both very poor liars willing to sacrifice their own for nefarious purposes.
So there's no doubt that Hamas was preparing the trigger attack to sacrifice some of its people". It was ultimately Palestinian resistance who did it. Allowed or not, they did it. We can't excuse them. It's not justified. It's not Israel who did it.
As a fruitarian in search of my own personal cancer cure I don't even kill a carrot so it is plain to see & understand that I view killing as wrong in the vast majority of cases & I don't excuse it. I do however retain the right to self defence as do the Palestinians and anyone else in the cosmos. That right of self-defence does not belong exclusively to israel as the media like to continually browbeat us with. The issue in self-defence is proportionality. If my assailant is intent on murdering me framing the moment in 'kill or be killed', my assailant can expect the same treatment without any hesitation. The siege of Gaza is a murderous siege brought about by Zionist assailants/invaders. Some Palestinians are exercising their right to self-defence against the Zionists. QED.

As a side note, I see the West Bank is on the verge of being tortured to death even though the israeli-created Hamas has not been installed there. It's ok though! Remote but AI controlled machine gun posts are installed so when Palestinians are mowed down Zionists can always blame AI as the murderer & not israel. Won't be long before the machine gun equipped robot dogs roam those streets to join in the Zionist fun & games before such machines are unleashed everywhere in the world where the Zionist-pronounced 'cattle people' live.
But Israel knew it was coming.
They know when any given Gazan blows his nose.
So? Not preventing something does not mean they have the responsibility of agency.
Interesting war manoeuvres developing in the early 21st century if the corporate media are to be believed! You blow your own stuff up like they'd have us believe with the Nordstream pipeline destruction and now this hospital. The world is not going to be fooled this time. The Zionists are exposed whether they be in the U$ofA, occupied Palestine, in the Westminster snake pit or wherever. They are the ones to be dealt with. They are as cancer to the rest of us ordinary humans, Jewish or otherwise.
