Israel Haters?

Calling people who support Palestinian Rights names such as "Israel Haters" or "Anti-semitic" misses the point.

Israel has been on a death spiral since its beginning, but it has been propped up by the United States. This to both their detriments.

Now, Israel is showing its weakness. It has been surviving on victimhood, despite its dislike for those who died in the holocaust.

The Best criticism of Israel lobby influence in the US by John Mearsheimer

Three points here about the Israel Lobby: 

1. It's wrong to call it the "Jewish Lobby"
2. Most of the people who support Israel are Christian Zionists--You know the people who want all the Jews to move back to that part of the World so they can be exterminated in a war.
3. Israel's interests are not the same as the US's interests. In fact, most of what is being pushed by the Israel lobby is not good for the US. And maybe even Israel itself.

Nothing like having your hasbara shot down by one of your own.

Israel Biggest Enemy Isn't Hamas (Shocking Truth Revealed)

Amusing, this is a lot of conservative thinkers who are shut out of the political debate. Most likely because big money, in this case AIPAC and the Zionist lobby, shut them out. I pretty much agree with what he says, unless we get to the two state solution since Netanyahu has basically killed that option. And tough shit if some people want an ethnically pure state. Been there, done that.

And "Never Again" needs to mean never again for anyone--especially a group that suffered under another country's attempts to create an ethnically pure state.

More on the tunnels under Gaza's hospitals

Seriously, if Ehud Barak saying that Israel built these tunnels isn't enough to get you to at least question this, then you are beyond help.

Ehud Barak (Hebrew: אֵהוּד בָּרָק [eˈhud baˈʁak]; born Ehud Brog; 12 February 1942) is an Israeli former general and politician who served as the tenth prime minister from 1999 to 2001. He was leader of the Labor Party from 1997 until 2001 and again from 2007 until 2011. He previously held the posts of defense minister and deputy prime minister under Ehud Olmert and then in Benjamin Netanyahu's second government from 2007 to 2013. He attempted a political comeback, running in the September 2019 Israeli legislative election as the leader of a new party that he formed. His party merged with other parties to form an alliance called the Democratic Union, but the alliance did not win enough seats for him to become a member of the Knesset.

A lieutenant general in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), Barak shares with two others the honor of being the most highly decorated soldier in Israel's history, having taken part in many battles and combat missions. He was appointed Chief of General Staff in 1991, serving until 1995. He is a graduate in physics, mathematics, and economics from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and Stanford University.
