Well, I give you credit for trying. His book and remarks are aimed at his fellow Jews, so I don’t put too much stock in what you thought about it. I do think the show made a mistake in opening with questions about Trump. That was sure to drive away thin-skinned MAGA’s like you before they got to what his book has to say. I don’t remember if your political lord and savior’s name came up again after the opening. I was hoping to hear what our Jewish brethren thought about his remarks.
I quit listening when he said Palestinians as subhuman. Clearly a comment designed to rile up the ignorant.
Exactly the point you would cover your ears and shy away. He said your political lord and savior thinks Palestinians are subhuman, which must have felt like fingernails on a chalkboard to your delicate ears. That’s why I think the program made a mistake by opening with that. The discussion was not about that, but you wouldn’t know that, you were too busy scurrying for your safe space to cuddle with your anxiety teddy bear.
LMAO. He opened that way for a reason, to rile up the ignorant. Right on cue here you are.
*He* didn’t open with that. Amy Goldman is the one who asked him about Trump’s Gaza proposal. Immediately following his response the conversation turned to the arguments in his book he makes toward his fellow Jews.
So all Jews live in Israel? Weird. I thought we at least had some white Jews still in the US that didn't make the trip to steal all the Palestinian land.
Have you been self-medicating? Please stop! Or at least lower the dosage.
Have you looked into the actual demographics of the Israeli population yet?
That question is rhetorical since we both know the answer is no, so no need to type out some long winded new model of Dodge drivel to state the obvious.
Okay. Peter Beinart writes about his concern that the ideology of Zionism is supplanting the fundamental tenants of the Jewish faith to the detriment of his fellow Jews. That’s the subject of the thread.
That didn't answer my question just as I predicted. At least it wasn't your usual Dodge Drivel (that's a catchy new model name!).
Why are you so afraid to look into who the Israelis actually are? I never took you for someone who would value the emotional opinions of below average talent bloggers over facts.
I live in the US where I don't have genocidal Islamic terrorists as neighbors just like you and Pete do.
So what’s your point? That only Israelis may speak about Israeli issues? If that’s the case why are *you* opining? Forget your hypocrisy that you freak out when someone says only transgenders can speak authoritatively about transgender issues, but embrace the same attitude when it comes to your pet interests.
