What is your problem?

It will be used to manufacture consent for more starvation, killing, theft of land, Libya exile etc. Because there is none presently but it is needed for Israrel to keep its impunity.

What do you think the IsraAid group was discussing? Peace and harmony unity with Palestinians? How to convince Netty to let in more aid? Ha!

No. Viewed through the prism of Trump's plan to privatize aid to keep Palestinians just on the verge of starvation and aid with ethnic cleansing, a plan Israel is fully on board with, any claim of that sort is absurd.

I am sure they were good people with firm beliefs. They worked for the Israeli Embassy and so were committed to working with the Trump Admin. to implement the Trump Plan and with Israel to carry its messaging. As shown by the young man's tweets supporting Netty and his government's claims and fabrications. Period.

I already explained what happened with the article.

For your "vague handwringing" comment and many other insults over a long time, you are now on ignore. Too bad I'll miss your posts when you realize what we've warned about is 100% true. Oh wait. We did warn that the intent was always making Gaza unlivable to "cleanse" it. Now that it's undeniable it was always the plan....crickets. So I won't miss much.

Some people will never let the wool fall from their eyes.

Do you much about diplomacy? yardwork May 23 #174

Seems like there are a few folks here deeply invested in scoffing lapucelle May 23 #189

Yes. I saw all that too. yardwork May 24 #191

It's so weird that the poster who insisted that it was a Jewish cultural event -- lapucelle May 24 #192

It looks like some folks didn't bother to do the homework before issuing dismissive pronouncements. lapucelle May 23 #188

Orwellian.... 58Sunliner May 22 #102

Having read thru your posts at this thread, I can see that you are concerned. Very, very concerned. Hekate May 22 #75

I suggest you watch Nicole Wallace's 1st segment mcar May 22 #65

I can pretty much guarantee that it won't. MarineCombatEngineer May 22 #78

I know mcar May 22 #85

You make it sound like charitable work and fostering unity and celebrating Jewish heritage are mutually exclusive. Beastly Boy May 22 #73

So the truth is that the murderer was at a Jewish event to hunt Jews. lapucelle May 22 #109

Of course that's the obvious retort. AloeVera May 22 #114

Yes, the truth is pretty obvious: the Jew-hating murderer who bellowed "Free, free Palestine" lapucelle May 22 #116

The operative word is "Palestine". And "Gaza". AloeVera May 22 #122

The word you chose was operative to a Jew hater who killed two random Jews. Beastly Boy May 23 #129

This is a great question, mcar May 23 #147

I think there's another reason for it mcar May 23 #149

Maybe the "pro-Pal" movement should stop conflating Jewishness with Israel. yardwork May 23 #139

A stickler for truth? MarineCombatEngineer May 23 #132

More from the article, including the name of the speaker. yardwork May 22 #43

That's odd. Are we looking at the same article as in the o/p? AloeVera May 22 #46

That's the topic of this subthread. yardwork May 22 #47

The article has been updated. AloeVera May 22 #60

Like you, I prefer researching to truly understand and make my thoughts about something so close to my Nanjeanne May 22 #58

Thank you. AloeVera May 22 #61

It's easy to grasp. It's just that some people will twist into pretzels to ration out compassion for Nanjeanne May 22 #64

Are you talking about compassion for the two victims of this murder? yardwork May 22 #84

I am talking about compassion for all innocent victims including these two young victims. Nanjeanne May 22 #90

Not only removed, but PPR'd also, MarineCombatEngineer May 22 #92

You see compassion for these two Mossfern May 22 #99

Yes and I think buts are not necessary. In this thread or in the threads about the Gazans dying. Nanjeanne May 22 #113

I hear you Israeli May 23 #138

Bless you. She was a force. As is Women for Peace. Nanjeanne May 23 #140

Always a "but" mcar May 22 #96

Seems to me then that the murderer who shrieked "Free, free Palestine" is a Jew-hater lapucelle May 22 #110

Did you research who the keynote speakers at the event were? lapucelle May 22 #112

Sorry I didn't respond immediately. Ive had you on ignore for such a long time and only saw this Nanjeanne May 22 #115

So when someone logs out and then logs back in, they see responses from folks on their ignore list? N/T lapucelle May 22 #117

That had me ROFLing. OilemFirchen May 22 #121

Yes if you aren't signed in you can see everyone's response. Saw yours. Signed in and removed you from ignore Nanjeanne May 23 #137

What I do know is that if someone is not logged in, there is no "My Posts" tab on the home page. lapucelle May 23 #150

That is so true. Good for you. But you do know your own name and can recognize it when you read a thread Nanjeanne May 23 #154

Did you know there was a response to you via the "bat signal" you wrote about? lapucelle May 23 #161

God I love you. I'll never put you on ignore again. So entertaining! Nanjeanne May 23 #162

I log in every time and the one DUer I have on ignore stays on ignore. yardwork May 23 #141

I think you are still not understanding. If you aren't logged in NOONE can be on ignore since ignore is tied Nanjeanne May 23 #151

I wasn't responding to you. yardwork May 23 #153

Sorry! It's gotten so complicated I think I've landed in some alter universe. Nanjeanne May 23 #156

Well, it doesn't have to be that complicated. yardwork May 23 #175

My post about it getting complicated was about Ignore Lists, Signing Out, Seeing posts. It had Nanjeanne May 23 #177

I just tried what you suggested, and you are correct, MarineCombatEngineer May 23 #155

Whew never thought it was going to turn I to a thing! Nanjeanne May 23 #157

LOL. MarineCombatEngineer May 23 #159

And there is no "My Posts" tab if you're not logged. lapucelle May 23 #152

If you're not logged in, MarineCombatEngineer May 23 #160

Yes I know. But the poster wrote about some sort of "bat signal" that goes out lapucelle May 23 #163

Ah, ok, I misunderstood your post. MarineCombatEngineer May 23 #164

Uh reading the thread. You know your screen name Doncha? Nanjeanne May 23 #166

Did a bat signal go out or did you take me off ignore? N/T lapucelle May 23 #169

As I said I can't ignore you. You are so entertaining and make me laugh. We all need some of that! Nanjeanne May 23 #170

He targeted the 2 people who were attending the event, MarineCombatEngineer May 22 #106

Quoting from wapo: AloeVera May 22 #107

So the argument is that he focused on a Jewish event at a Jewish museum, but it wasn't anti-Semitic attack lapucelle May 22 #118

He was targeting Zionism. AloeVera May 22 #124

He was definitely targeting specific people. Mosby May 22 #125

Then he is the lousiest shot I've ever seen. Beastly Boy May 23 #127

Where did you read that the "Zionist state" made the Jew-hating murderer "lose his mind"? lapucelle May 23 #168
