Trump now says criticising Israel

[EatTheRich]

That was weak.

It seems you need to look up the definitions of "boycott" and "outlaw" and see if you can figure out the difference.

Also try to understand the difference between Israeli businesses and Jewish businesses.

To be fair, BDS advocates have frequently targeted American Jews for no reason other than their being Jewish.

 

[EatTheRich]

Possible...only the Lord knows, and it's not my place to judge or speculate. I simply know what God Himself says - either you put your faith specifically in Jesus Christ, or you will spend eternity without God. It is very, very clear...and very inclusive. We all have equal access to Him. He did/does all the heavy lifting.

The Bible says a lot of contradictory things about the afterlife. The New Testament and mainstream Christianity are anti-Semitic.

You could say the Bible is anti-mankind in the sense that we are all sinners and fall well short of God's standard. Or you could say that the Bible is most profoundly pro-mankind document ever produced containing the blueprint for our very salvation undeserved though it may be.

Further, the singular perfect person in all of history and the object of our worship manifested Himself in human Jewish form.

I find both the Old and New Testaments to be quite pro-semitic and pro-gentile.

 

[EatTheRich]

Nonsense.

Loads of people who are not anti semetic oppose Israel's violation of international law and horrendous and inhumane treatment of Palestinians.

There is nothing anti semitic about opposing a nation's actions and policies

As do I. But constructive opposition to Israel’s racist policies consists of trying to forge unity between working-class Jews and Arabs to fight for a secular democracy with a right to return/seek refuge for Jews and Arabs, based on economic justice ... not uniting with genocidal bourgeois nationalists like Hamas for blind indiscriminate attacks on Israeli Jews that merely fuel a cycle of racist repression and revenge.

Yes, it doesn't change the fact that dozens of elected Democrats are virulent anti-semites, and you defend them all, and enable the deadly terror attacks that are the results of their bigoted rhetoric.

Dozens? Ok, name 12. Examples of their bigoted rhetoric please.

The ANC supports BDS......among others.

Artists and writers
Pink Floyd musician Roger Waters supports BDS.[150][151] Alice Walker, author of The Color Purple, has given her support to BDS and has rejected further editions of The Color Purple from being published in Israel.[152]

In September 2018, 140 artists (including six Israelis) signed an open letter in support of a boycott of Eurovision.[153][154]

In July 2019, after the Open Source Festival in Düsseldorf disinvited the American rapper Talib Kweli for refusing to denounce the BDS movement, 103 artists, including Peter Gabriel, Naomi Klein and Boots Riley, signed an open letter condemning Germany's attempts to impose restrictions on artists who support Palestinian rights.[155]

Political
The African National Congress endorsed BDS in 2012. The party declared itself "unapologetic in its view that the Palestinians are the victims and the oppressed in the conflict with Israel".[156] Following Israel's ground invasion of Gaza in 2014, the Green Party of England and Wales's conference supported "active participation in the BDS movement".[157] Scotland's Green Party endorsed a boycott of Israel in October 2015.[158] Members of the Green Party of Canada voted to endorse BDS in August 2016, despite the objections of the party's leader and sole MP Elizabeth May.[159] In June 2018 the Socialist International issued a Declaration expressing support for "Boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) against the Israeli occupation, all the occupation institutions, and the illegal Israeli settlements including the total embargo on all forms of military trade and cooperation with Israel as long as it continues its policies of occupation and Apartheid against the Palestinian people".[160][161] In 2014, an international Jewish group, Jews for Palestinian Right of Return, issued a list of signatories endorsing the American Studies Association academic boycott of Israel.[162] The Israeli activist organization Boycott from Within supports the BDS campaign. Boycott From Within regularly releases statements calling on musicians to cancel concerts scheduled in Israel.[163] After the German parliament declared that the BDS movement was antisemitic, a group of 60 Israeli academics responded with a letter that criticized the motion and said it was part of a larger effort to delegitimize supporters of Palestine.[164]

Trade unions
The Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU) supports the campaign for BDS against Israel, fully endorsing it in July 2011.[165] During the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict, COSATU vowed to "intensify" their support for the campaign, picketing Woolworths for stocking Israeli goods.[166]

In April 2014, the UK's National Union of Teachers, the largest teacher's union in the EU, passed a resolution backing boycotts against Israel.[167] In July of that year, the UK's Unite the Union voted to join BDS.[168]

In April 2015, the Confédération des syndicats nationaux, Quebec, Canada, representing 325,000 in nearly 2,000 unions, voted to join the campaign for BDS and support a military embargo against Israel.[169]

On 11 September 2019, the British Trades Union Congress passed a motion titled "Palestine: supporting rights to self-determination", called for the prioritization of “Palestinians’ rights to justice and equality, including by applying these principles based on international law to all UK trade with Israel”, and declared its opposition to “any proposed solution for Palestinians, including Trump’s 'deal', not based on international law recognising their collective rights to self-determination and to return to their homes”.[170]
etc. etc.

You got me there. Too bad for them.

1) I note that Trump is wrong on issues with great frequency. Who cares?
2) Feel free to continue your unique singling out of the only Jewish nation on earth for half-century-old trespass in the face of worse, CURRENT trespasses committed by non-Jewish entities. Why would anyone think anything odd of that, eh?

I single out that event to make it clear what Trump's XO means. Are you anti-semitic for condemning the attack on the USS Liberty? Trump says you would be.

My post was not unclear. Your grasp of English grammar, apparently, is.

Again, if the democrats are anti-Semites and racists...why are most African Americans and Jews registered democrats?

I don't think they are, actually.

Are what? Either your reference is to "if the democrats are anti-Semites and racists"

or "most African-Americans and Jews are registered democrats".

Your post was unclear. Since the latter is obviously wrong, I thought you must mean the former. Oh well...you chose poorly. Voter registration clearly supports that I am right and you are, well, you.

"Are" the objects of the sentence you wrote. As I said, your weak English language skills have led to your confusion once again. Rather than lower myself to your level, which appears to be about seventh-grade, and restate my position in more basic language you can understand, I expect you to strive towards understanding proper English. Good luck.

I expect you to understand facts, as presented, that clearly show exactly as I posted. Really doesn't matter what you think..."actually".

Trump speaks all sorts of nonsense. He’s not alone in that regard, BTW.

 

[middleview]

I do understand the facts. We were discussing your poor language skills, which is actually an aside to the main topic, your anti-semitism.

As evidenced by what? Your desire to distract from the idiotic Trump XO is proof of your fervent loyalty to the worst president ever. He clearly is violating the first amendment with his order to punish anyone who criticizes Israel.

Then there is the fact that I posted sources that show just as I said...most Jews and African Americans are democrats.

The main topic is Trump's xo. Please try to stay on the subject.

Your anti-semitism is evident in this thread, as well as several others currently on the board. How could you not know that?

Prove it. There is nothing in any of my posts that is remotely anti-semitic, unless you adopt Trump's dumb ass assertion that criticizing Israel is anti-semitic.

• A new report found that instances of anti-Israel bias have increased by 70 percent on campus.
• The report also found that Boycott, Divest, Sanction (BDS) actions by university faculty more than doubled.

This was the basis for these actions. Stopping Radical leftist hatred on the College Campus.

So censorship is a good thing, in your opinion.

There you go again, giving cover to the lefty terrorists, so they can feel emboldened to kill more Jews, with your guarantee of protection.

So, if I were to post either you put your faith specifically in Jesus Christ, or you will spend eternity without God...is that anti-semitic? Jews will go to hell? Wow. I think you better talk to your anti-semitic buddy about this.

Hey @RickWA, @marvin martian wants to talk to you about why you hate Jews and don't think they can get into heaven.

What does that rant have to do with your support for the left-wing terrorists who murdered Jews in New Jersey this week?

By the way, they specifically targeted a Jewish-owned business, just like your friends and fellow Democrats in the BDS movement.

Are you agreeing with him, that Jews can't get into heaven?
