Yes, in the same sense that I deny the existence of unicorns. I'm also a unicorn-denier.

He's said a lot since October 7th and before it.

A selection of more recent ones by running a search for his tweets using the word 'Hamas'

Hamas' Qassam Brigades are guerilla fighters engaged in armed struggle against an occupying power, which is their right under international law.

The only men on this planet willing to do something about children being murdered in Gaza are to be found in Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Resistance Axis. So obviously the Western Zionist media have no answer but to frame these Resistance fighters as "terrorists"

Hamas have just captured a group of Israeli soldiers

LOL

Iran’s president and foreign minister have died.

If it is an act of God, there is naught we can say. If it was an act of treachery, this will not deter or hinder the Resistance.

Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah have always become stronger after losses like this.

The struggle continues.

Why do you denounce Hamas and Hezbollah?

Do you also denounce the French resistance when you condemn the Nazis?

I'm so bored of Westerners comparing the only armed front that Palestinians/Arabs have to their oppressors, and acting like this is some kind of nuanced comment

https://x.com/richimedhurst/status/1781613656238620939

They hate Iran, Syria, Hamas, Hezbollah, etc. because they fight back. Because they refuse to roll over when the Israelis and Americans snap their fingers.

That is the only reason, and nothing else.

So it's not an Elbit Systems factory, it's a separate French-owned company which owner company has a separate contract with Elbit Systems, and the article doesn't actually say what this particular factory produces, who it sells to, or what the financial value of it is.

Great. Really cleared that up.

How much of the UK's annual total of £18.2m in arms exports to Israel comes from this factory?

Also if committing massacres made the PLO a terror group

No, it's when you commit terrorist acts that you become a terrorist group. Like the PLO did, repeatedly, over many many years, and bragged about.

Terrorists are by definition non-state actors.

And yes I've seen the Pallywood stuff coming out of Gaza just like everyone else has. It's the same bullshit they pull every time they cross a line and find their shit getting pushed in by Israel like in Lebanon in 1982.

receives billions in funding and weapons from the US and UK

In 2023 total UK arms exports to Israel totalled £18.2 million. We do not provide them with foreign financial assistance.

So you were only off by a little bit.

In 2023 Israel received approx. £3.3 bn in foreign assistance from the USA, the large majority loaned to purchase US supplies of both defensive and offensive munitions. That same year, Egypt also received about £1.5 bn in foreign assistance from the USA, Jordan £1.7 bn, etc.

As I said it is a form of political repression.

Yes, that's why it's good

I don't have a problem with any element of that law.

I'm profoundly comfortable with people being arrested and imprisoned for substantial sentences for expressing support for Hamas and similar Jihadi terror groups.

You realise that cartoon came from a far-right Neo-Nazi forum, right?

And you realise what that does to this conversation?

Reddit kept the bootlickers and the lazy, Lemmy gained the anti-greed political left

sigh...

Oh, that's interesting. Another user has said in reply to my comment they have the option too. I'm using Brave Browser but I don't have Stylish or anything installed

[-] Streamwave@feddit.uk 0 points 2 months ago

I don’t disagree but that’s easier said than done, unfortunately.

Haviv Rettig Gur put it very accurately and concisely, if brutally, in a lecture he gave recently:

For Jews In the 21st century, you either learned English or Hebrew or you were killed.

As a Brit myself (English, Catholic, English as far back as Ancestry can tell etc.) I'm really ashamed of this country since October 7th. It's as if we felt that we had been impervious to the very deep, ancient cancer of antisemitism due to WW2. And that seems to have left us even more defenceless than many other European states which have at least tried at points to contain this.

Per the article, they didn't investigate all 350, the UN only investigated 19. Not really interested in that argument, though.

What do you mean when you say 'Zionist' about me? Specifically, what do you mean by that word?
