It's illegal to be Jewish

Don't put words in my mouth. I did not prescribe what they should or shouldn't do. I'm saying they probably see that it would be futile to petition Hamas given that all the bargaining power rests with Netanyahu.

"Hundreds of Jewish anti-war demonstrators have been arrested during a Passover seder that doubled as a protest in New York, as they shut down a major thoroughfare to pray for a ceasefire and urge the Senate majority leader, Chuck Schumer, to end US military aid to Israel.

The 300 or so arrests took place on Tuesday night on the doorstep of Schumer’s Brooklyn residence, where thousands of mostly Jewish New Yorkers gathered for the seder, a ritual that marked the second night of the holiday celebrated as a festival of freedom by Jews worldwide.

The seder came just before the US Senate resoundingly passed a military package that includes $26bn for Israel.

The protesters called on Schumer – who is among a minority of Democrats to recently criticize the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu – to stop arming Israel’s military, which relies heavily on US weapons, jet fuel and other military equipment.

“We as American Jews will not be used, we will not be complicit and we will not be silent. Judaism is a beautiful, thousands-year-old tradition, and Israel is a 76-year-old colonial apartheid state,” Morgan Bassichis, an organizer with Jewish Voice for Peace, told the crowd.

“This is the Passover that we take our exodus from Zionism. Not in our name. Let Gaza live.”"

What Zionism? they were trying to deny that the other day, I don't think for a minute they think they are going to con the rest of us. Or if they do it going to end very badly for our own agitators.

I didn't ignore your post. I answered it. Your post was:

"Oh please.

So they should not demand that Hamas release the hostages because Hamas would ignore it. You can do better than that surely ?"


And I answered: "Don't put words in my mouth. I did not prescribe what they should or shouldn't do. I'm saying they probably see that it would be futile to petition Hamas given that all the bargaining power rests with Netanyahu."

I also added some new information about the arrests of hundreds of Jewish protesters who are clearly not anti-Jew but anti-war.

The tide is turning numnuts, be careful supporting Genocide can get people in court and banged up for a very longtime or in some cases dead as in no more this parrot is dead.

It is not a falsehood to say what I think, which IS that the protesters probably see it would be futile to petition Hamas. Since Hamas does not have Western support, the protesters have no leverage with Hamas, and nothing with which to bargain for the release of the hostages. Only Netanyahu has that. 
Being anti-war and anti-genocide does not equate to being pro-Hamas. Hamas is a terrorist organisation. Let's be clear about that.

Israel's government has gone far too far in decimating the Palestinian population, the majority of whom are civilians. Roughly 12,000 were murdered by Hamas on October 7th vs roughly 34,000 slaughtered by Israel in response, and they are not done yet . Western protesters, including large numbers of Jews, object to their governments funding these continued atrocities.

They’re not real ones sheepy. They only speak when you forget to take your medication .
