    "I am American, was born in USA and I have the right to live here, but Arabs , who lived here for thousands years, don't " in brief
  • Americans justifying Israel by saying Israelis “were there first” is a level of irony that I can’t comprehend.
  • @Kevin-qn2kw
    They sound like Germans talking about Jews in the 1930s.

    Imagine taking over a country, and then calling them terrorists.

    I love the American girl who says that the land is rightfully theirs. So her American family should give their home back to the indigenous native Americans. Oh the hypocrisy of these people is beyond laughable.

    Anti Zionism is not anti-Semitism. PERIOD.

    “They are out to get us” . They are raised to think they are victims their whole life

    It's not anti-semitism, it's anti-genocide. We support you Palestine from the UK ❤

    Israeli: ‘We know who the enemy is.’ Reporter: ‘Who is the enemy?’ Israeli: ‘That’s a very good question!’

    Remember this everytime someone tries to convince you it's just Netanyahu.

    "May their name and memory be obliterated" 😱 blatant terrorism
  • @non-blogger
    This is exactly what the German's in Nazi Germany said. And the rest of the world didn't take them seriously and we witnessed one of the most horrific genocides. Now the very same people who couldn't understand why their aggressors did this to them, are doing it to another group of people. Their great grandparents would be in tears if they see what they're doing.
