Not gonna lie. This made me proud.
Someone sent me this photo from a pro Israel march in Berlin.
This has to be the first time someone took a tweet of mine and made it into a sign to hold at a protest. 🇮🇱💪✡️🙏
Well it’s never been a paradise and now that Israel and the US are slaughtering children left right and centre it’s become a hell for these children . You can say whatever you like about justification but it doesn’t sit well with people who can think for themselves . All war is repulsive so stop
Hillel Fuld this statement of yours shows the incredible amount of lies, ignorance and antisemitism around the Israel-Hamas war.
Also coming from the UN and many NGOs. 🎗️🎗️🎗️
No it can’t, and it was never a prison: The vast majority of people don’t realize tbat the Gaza Strip is half the size of NYC with less than a quarter of NYC’s population. it’s also five times the size of Manhattan, with the same population.
These events are raising critical concerns about the preservation of national monuments and the principles they stand for in America.
The continued disregard for these symbols of freedom needs to spark a conversation on the role of law enforcement and the government's responsibility to protect these sacred sites.
🇺🇸The Role of National Monuments🇺🇸
National monuments are not just stone and metal; they embody the ideals and history of a nation, when a monument that represents American freedom is vandalized, it is not just a physical attack but an assault on the values of liberty and justice that form the backbone of the country.
🇺🇸Government Responsibility🇺🇸
It is the duty of American authorities to safeguard these symbols against acts of desecration, the question arises: how low must the situation descend before decisive actions are taken? Authorities must step up and enforce laws that protect these historical sites to maintain public trust and national integrity.
🇺🇸Public Reaction and Inaction🇺🇸
The surprising lack of widespread outrage or significant action in response to these acts suggests a concerning desensitization to such events, public officials and citizens alike must awaken to the severity of these crimes and demand more robust protections for these national symbols.
🇺🇸Implications of Inaction🇺🇸
Allowing such acts of hatred to continue unchecked not only tarnishes physical monuments but also weakens the societal fabric. It's akin to turning a blind eye to the betrayal of those who have laid down the foundational freedoms of speech and expression.
🇺🇸The Need for a Strong Response🇺🇸
Addressing this with a strong, unambiguous response is essential, such a stance will serve as a deterrent against future transgressions and reinforce the importance of respecting and upholding the laws and values of the United States of America.
🇺🇸
The desecration of monuments dedicated to American freedom is more than vandalism—it is an attack on the very ideals upon which the nation was built.
🇺🇸
It is imperative for American authorities to act swiftly and decisively to restore respect for these symbols.
🇺🇸
Protecting these monuments goes beyond preserving history; it is about affirming the nation's commitment to its foundational values and ensuring these principles are upheld for future generations.
🇺🇸

The anti-Israel protesters at the University of Washington in the USA desecrate the statue of George Washington, the first US president and the father of the American nation... and the US continues to absorb the terror in silence!
המפגינים האנטי ישראלים באוניברסיטת וושינגטון בארה"ב מבזים את הפסל של ג'ורג' וושינגטון, נשיא ארה"ב הראשון ואבי האומה האמריקנית... וארה"ב ממשיכה לספוג בשקט!
We are mourning the loss of young lives and the damage caused during the protest. It is truly devastating to witness such tragedy unfold in our country. Let us reflect on the underlying issues and demand justice.
As a journalist, I have been deeply affected by the events that transpired. The loss of innocent lives and the suffering of unarmed civilians is a painful reminder of the fragility of life and the need for change.
Let us not forget that the initial student protests were peaceful, driven by a genuine desire for change and progress.
It is crucial that we raise our voices and demand justice for the lives lost. We must call for a thorough investigation into these incidents and hold those responsible accountable for their actions. Only through accountability can we begin to heal and prevent such tragedies from occurring again.
But let us not stop at demanding justice alone. It is equally important to foster empathy and understanding in our communities. Let us engage in meaningful conversations, seeking to bridge divides and build a society that values the safety and well-being of all its members.
To those who are affected by the trauma of these events, please remember that you are not alone. Your mental and emotional well-being matters, and there are resources available to help you through this difficult time.
Together, we can create a society where peaceful protests are met with dialogue, understanding, and positive change. Let us honor the lives lost by working towards a future where violence does not define our interactions, but rather, where compassion and empathy prevail.

Not a movie. It is a shame, all under our watch. How do you explain to your Children?
Why are all these continuing to our fellow Global Citizens?
Yes, we may worry our careers or businesses may get hurt voicing out. That's exactly how they wish to silence voices against injustice and rogue actors.
Who will stand up and speak up for you when you desperately need it?
What do we teach in schools and to our Children at home?
Complacency and Indifference are systemically designed and installed in dysfunctional Democracy to contain its Citizens in "Cage Free" farms, occasionally fed with goodies and election promises. This is a perfect model for exploitation and manipulation by tyranny and rogue actors.
There won't be wars and killing if those in power could not profit from all these.
Global Citizens must really be in an urgent self support mode to vigilantly remind our political leaders - Peace & Humanity must prevail. Wars of any kind must be stopped.
Time to wake up.
"Have you ever seen destruction like this, even in the "End of the World" movies? No, we have never seen anything like this and Who's going to repair this? Who's going to rebuild this up? People are returning and building tents. But it's not safe. Look there. You see these women, carrying bags with their children.
Let me see your hands. Why are you in such a mess? - I'm working. We are cleaning the house so we can stay here. My mother is in Rafah. My father was killed.
Look at this. Look, look, look what the written here. USA. These are the American weapons behind me that are used to destroy the buildings around me. Can you see the destruction?" - Palestinian Journalist Bisan Owda https://lnkd.in/gYqW5VqQ

March 3, 2024 - Vaughan, Ontario, Canada. This is unacceptable. @yorkregionalpolice categorized this as “obscenities and confrontation.” It was not a “confrontation” - it was a hate crime started off with death threats to “All Palestinians” and then physical assault with what looks to be a nail gun. #stophypocrisy#stopthedoublestandard#stopislamophobiaYork Regional Police need to treat this seriously and bring this man to justice. Broad condemnation of anti-Palestinian and Islamophobia hate crimes are required and expected. Nothing less.
Please #share widely. Keep #speakingup and #speakingout globally and locally. We must remain steadfast. With you as always in strength and solidarity - we are #strongertogether. 💪🏽🙏🏽

“Every Palestinian. Every fucking Palestinian will die. Every fucking Palestinian.”
This happened in Vaughan, Ontario today.

WILL YOU CONDEMN THIS?
This is quite the statement from the York Regional Police in light of what you see and hear on the video. The selective moral outrage is laid bare. Distressing.
“Through investigation, officers identified several witnesses who stated that a male had stopped his vehicle near pro-Palestinian demonstrators and began shouting obscenities at them, while becoming confrontational with three of the protestors.”

WAS IT AS BEAUTIFUL AS GETTYSBURG DONALD?
His "logic" boils down to, if there are enough people to overwhelm the security, it's security's fault. Additionally, that 100 people did it all, despite supposedly a million protesters being there.
Simple truth.
1. There were about 150,000-200,000 people total.
2. The vast majority of those present were not violent.
3. About 2,000-4,000 took part directly in the engagement against police, the breaking into the Capitol, and various other major and minor crimes while trespassing.
4. Beyond that another 10,000 or so were knowingly trespassing and got minor fines or even as little warnings.
5. About 25 high-tiered white nationalist leaders claimed they were following Donald Trump's orders.
6. MAGA politicians were trading information about the Capitol with leaders of the mob during the attack.
7. The VP was hidden by Secret Service FROM THE PRESIDENT to keep him safe during the attack.
8. 3+ hours of inaction and unavailability by The Commander in Chief during a barbaric hand to hand battle on the Capitol Building steps proves he wanted it.

Zionism is to Judaism what the KKK & white nationalism are to Christianity, & what ISIS is to Islam.
Most people don't realize that while Israel is a Jewish supremacist state (aka an apartheid state), Palestine was always intended to remain as a secular democratic state, with equal rights for ALL - Jews, Muslims, & Christians. And many Jews wanted it to stay that way. But the Zionists from Europe insisted on Jewish dominance & the ethnic cleansing of most non-Jews, which they have continued doing until today.
Please support equal rights for ALL & say NO to all forms of racism & bigotry, including Zionism (i.e. Jewish supremacy)
And please listen to renowned Jewish scholar, Professor Avi Shlaim, explain why Zionism is a racist ideology: https://lnkd.in/e5FENdnY
Zionism requires ethnic cleansing &/or apartheid in order to create “Jewish sovereignty” on land full of indigenous people who are not Jewish. “Jewish sovereignty” means Jewish supremacy, not equal rights for ALL. And the only reason they can even claim to have a democracy in 1948 Israel is because they ethnically cleansed it of most Muslim & Christian Palestinians to create a Jewish majority. That’s where most of the people in Gaza came from. And they’ve been continuously ethnically cleansing the West Bank since 1967.
And Israel’s Nation State law even says sovereignty in Israel is EXCLUSIVELY for Jewish people (born Jewish), & the charter of Israel’s current & longest ruling party, Likud, defines Israel as between the river & the sea.
But there are 7M non-Jews that also live there (~50% of population) — don’t they deserve sovereignty too? Zionists don’t think so because they run Israel & Israel’s laws & policies are racist.
The root cause of this horrible conflict is that Israeli Zionists actually believe they own every Palestinian home, farm, & inch of land, & have the right to kill indigenous Palestinian families that refuse to leave, for the crime of not being Jewish.
Please listen to renowned Jewish-American Prof. Noam Chomsky explain how ridiculous the Zionist ownership claim is: lnkd.in/gtHPPHUz
Palestinians have been there for thousands of years, never left, & their genetics proves it. At some point, their Canaanite & Jewish ancestors simply converted to Christianity &/or Islam. So why would that mean Jewish immigrants from Europe & the U.S., who have never even been there, own all of their homes & property?
What would you do if someone stole or demolished your house & livelihood, killed some of your family, & left the rest of you with nothing to live in the squalor of a refugee camp? That’s what Israel did to over 750K Palestinians in 1948, over 300K in 1967, over 250K since 1967, & MORE EVERY YEAR.
And now they are doing it to most of the families in Gaza FOR THE 2ND TIME.
Jewish-Israeli sources:
1) Prof. Ilan Pappé, Historian: lnkd.in/gFBK6sPB
2) Miko Peled, ex-IDF soldier & son of Israeli general: lnkd.in/geiy3_5s
This Zionist tries and fails to attack himself, Literally, a false flag attack, if you are protesting anywhere, keep filming to show the truth about such people.
Interesting here in the opening paragraph, “David Lammy’s speeches targeted several times”.
So why is it still happening and who has to get injured before the security operation procedures are changed with regards to demonstrations?
It’s only a matter of time before it goes from screaming, shouting and flag waiving to physical attacks by more radical Palestinian supporters.
Presumably this has happened in various venues, see videos below.
In the first clip it looks like he has been briefed to exit the stage as soon as someone gets on to it.
In the second clip it’s a common ploy, numerous demonstrators placing themselves among the audience and disrupting at variousi times.
Looking at this from a #closeprotection point of view:
Theres’s no cleared space in front of the stage, usually first 2-3 rows empty.
No security in front of or at the sides of the stage to run interference.
No security off stage in the wings nto protect speaker/s.
Also it does look like there were no behavioural detection officers monitoring the crowd outside to (Combat Profile) the audience.
As this war causes tensions to become more inflamed these demonstrations will become violent and those speaking will be attacked, unless security is tightened to the correct level.
Stay Dangerous
