In that letter, there is no condemnation of the murder, of the rape, of the kidnapping of thousands of unarmed Israeli citizens.
From young men and women kidnapped, and brought back to Gaza for God knows what. To the butchering of Holocaust survivors and the uploading of their dead bodies to their own Facebook profiles so their families can witness the carnage. To the beheading and the incineration of infants. Not to mention the innocents of other nations, including Arabs butchered in the massacre.
Zilch. No condemnation of those. When you refused to condemn those acts, and put the blame squarely on the Israelis themselves, you are saying that they were asking for it. It is no different than saying how short was her skirt.
When you do not condemn violence, such as this, and you put the blame on the innocents, that, along with all the antisemitism we have seen from the so-called Palestinian rallies. They are saying what many others are saying, this is, what decolonization looks like.
Since 2015, I have seen the left, particularly the online left. Label anything they donтАЩt like as Nazism, Racism, and antisemitism.
From school choice, the gun rights, you name it.
IтАЩve been called the worst of the worst by simply saying that Possibly the DAs in New York, Seattle, Memphis, etc. are not doing a good job.
But here, right now, we have actual Nazis chanting from the river to the sea in New York City, to gas the Jews in Sydney Australia. To rape their mothers in rape, their daughters in London.
Jewish schools across the planet are having to close today, and synagogues are barricading their doors tomorrow for fear of a wave of antisemitic attacks.
I live in a pretty Jewish neighborhood, I see more Israeli flags than American flags at times. My neighbors are terrified, the local BLM shit stirrer re-tweeted the call for global jihad.
And where are all these progressive groups?Partying with those saying gas the Jews, the Nazis were simply in the mirror.
Just playing the game theyтАЩve been playing for years I guess
I donтАЩt know I hate the phrase, but the last week has been a bit of a тАЬblack/red-pillingтАЭ for me.
If someone doesnтАЩt say a damn word of sympathy for the murder of Jews both in Israel and abroad, but then starts to speak up about the Palestinians... or even worse say that the violence against Gaza was unprompted, then yeah
I along with a lot of other people are going to draw conclusions.
Suppose this.... If someone was loudly condemning the bombing of Dresden or Tokyo in 1945, but was suspiciously quiet during the axis offensive in the years before, those complaints might be seen a little differently.
Just my take. Are used to be really really sympathetic to the Palestinian cause, But now I donтАЩt know man..... I still havenтАЩt heard from a friend of mine in Israel.
I agree that there's a lot of evil anti-Semitic stuff in leftist circles that deserve professional consequences, not gonna defend the DSA march or the chants. But the Harvard letter to me is not something I'd call explicitly hateful. They probably should start with a blanket condemnation of the evil terrorist attacks, but faux-radicalism got the better of them.
I hate the talking point though theyтАЩre just kids, and their brains arenтАЩt developed yet.
Because for years, we were told that all the craziness that was happening in college campuses would not affect real life, because these college kids would not be able to change offices in corporate America. But they did. this very podcast is based on that issue.
While some certainly do, we have vast amount of evidence that show the crazy beliefs these kids have donтАЩt change that much from the ages of 22 to 27.
I am glad that finally there is a push back to their shit. For the first time in my lifetime, it seems that they are actually starting to be consequences for rich illiberal college kids shouting, wild racist, dogmatic shit into the wind.
Right. These are just kids, but Jesus, they are rich kids who are in the 1% and are going to be working at all the prestigious and influential places that rule us.
That's sophistry. Silence in this case is complicity, and (again in this case) that means complicity with violence. But that's not the same as "silence is violence," a nonsense statement in any case.
`In that letter, there is no condemnation of the murder, of the rape, of the kidnapping of thousands of unarmed Israeli citizens.'
The situation is bad enough so please stop exaggerating as it will only fuel more hatred towards Palestinians.
Thousands of civilians weren't killed in Israel (although Israel has killed thousands of Palestinian civilians...approaching 10,000 over the last fifteen years). Latest estimates I'm aware of had 900 Israeli civilians killed; the rest were military/security personnel.
Yes I have
I'm surprised that you could read that and say that they were 'rooting for hamas'.

If the shoe fits.
I am so done with these talking points.

You argue that the absence of a condemnation is approval? So 'Silence is violence'?
