Westwood community members and students chanted while marching to the Israeli Consulate on Wilshire Boulevard Sunday to protest what they claimed was the Israeli occupation of areas such as West Bank and the Gaza Strip.
Al-Awda, a group dedicated to helping Palestinian refugees, and Act Now to Stop War and End Racism, also known as the ANSWER Coalition, an organization devoted to protest racism, war and foreign occupation of nations, hosted the march. Sheela Xiao, an event organizer with the ANSWER Coalition, said the event was organized to inform people of the recent airstrikes in Palestine.
Several people dressed in traditional Palestinian attire chanted “Occupation is a crime. Free, free Palestine,” and marched from the Federal Building located on Wilshire Boulevard. While marching to the consulate, participants carried several posters saying “Free Gaza,” “End US Aid” and “Zionism is Racism.”
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict includes disputes about the occupation of the West Bank and the claimed occupation of the Gaza Strip by Israeli military, among other issues. The region has continued to experience violence, as Israelis and Palestinians fight over the territory.
About 70 Palestinians, 44 of whom Israeli military claimed were attackers, have died due to Israeli gunfire since early October, following a recent escalation in airstrikes in the Gaza Strip, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry.
Amani Barakat, an event organizer, said the event intended to voice the Palestinian community’s frustration with the deaths of Palestinian citizens in Israeli-occupied areas.
“We know standing here is not going to help much over there,” she said. “But it’s about showing the fact that we won’t let our tax money finance these atrocities.”
Erika Martinez, an attendee affiliated with Colectivo de Mujeres Migrantes Unidas, an advocacy group for undocumented women’s rights, said her group participated in the march to support the Palestinian Youth Movement. The movement encourages young Palestinians worldwide to advocate for social and political justice.
Martinez added she thinks the march allowed different communities to come together to express their support for Palestinians injured or killed in attacks.
Safwan Ibrahim, president of Students for Justice in Palestine at UCLA and a participant in the march, said he thinks the intense militarization in the area has caused Palestinians to lose their land, homes and livelihoods.
Ibrahim added he thinks the increased violence in the area also leads to criminalization of Palestinians in the United States.
Barakat said the Coalition will continue to organize protests and awareness marches until Palestinians acquire the areas. The ANSWER coalition will organize another protest on Nov. 9 at the Israeli Consulate to demand an end to all U.S. aid given to Israel.

Supporting Hamas and other Palestinian terror groups that are involved in knife attacks, shootings and bombings against Israelis is okay then in the “peace” rally that should be rightfully relabeled as Rally for Pieces.
Maybe you should realize that Hamas does NOT operate in Jerusalem, and they do NOT operate in the West Bank, and they do NOT operate in Israel proper….
Your lies and racist ignorance is typical of Israelian hasbarists
Let us not forget the terror acts of Israelians…..They even assassinated their own peace maker prime minister right after he made a speech for peace!
Sounds like you prefer the assassination of peace makers and for the continuous oppression of Palestinians……as long as us Americans pay for it with our taxes and blood right?
Supporting the Israeli Likud (which is related to the Irgun and STern terror gangs) is a support for Israelian terror against the indigenous Palestinians.
If armed immigrants killed your family and stole your land I’m sure you would act like a Palestinian
You sound quite insane. Very filled with hate. Clearly, you read way too much propaganda. Get yourself a genuine history book. I assure you, there are 2 sides to this conflict. Ranting will only make you seem unreasonable and lead to more extremism on the other side. If you want to use this conflict to get your frustrations out, you’re doing both Jews and Arabs a disservice. But if you’re genuinely looking for peace, try learning more about the truth in this conflict.
Funny how everyone all of a sudden wants peace and normalizing and negotiations…. Where were you the past 20 years since Oslo? Or 48 years since 1967 invasion and occupation? For 67 years since the Nakba and whnxi cleansing?
You want peace? Then vote out the right wing likud Peace-destroyers why does israelis keep voting in killers?
Put american support under conditions, actually just ENFORCE those conditions like no settlement building no using weapons against civilians,
Support the civil and human rights of Palestinians right now to be able to vote, travel, marry, build homes and businissss.
Your talk of peace is empty and too late and is being used as a disgusting tool to steal more Palestinians lands and continue the denial of civil a and human rights for palestinians
Extremists like you is why there has been no peace. Where was I over the past 20 years since Oslo in 93? I was watching Clinton craft a historic deal for a 2 state solution at the Camp David Summit in 2000. Where were you when that deal was offered? And what happened to that deal? Arafat rejected it, didn’t even make a counter proposal, and began a new round of terror with the intafada.
Where was I after 48 and 67? I was encouraging peace with Egypt and Jordan. When countries give up their desire to destroy Israel, they get peace. It really is that simple.
What agreements have the Palestinians made for peace? Oslo? They promised to give up terrorism. Yeah, that was some promise.
Israel has made far greater efforts to reach peace with Arabs than Arabs have made to make peace with Israel. The Palestinians suffer because they refuse to make peace. They want to destroy Israel and they admit it openly.
Extremist for exposing Isrselis atrocities.
Sure thing buddy
the palestinains never wanted peace, all they have to do is stop terror, stabbing, suicide bombing and missiles- build their own society and economy instead spending time money and energy on killing.
There was no terror in 2010 and 2011.
What did the Palestinians get?
100,000 more illegal colonial settlements just in the West Bank?
A tightening of the Gaza seige with a new mowing the lawn policy and a Samson option!
Over 100 dead Palestinian children, 350 demolished homes, 8000 olive trees burned, and over 120 miles of extension of the Apartheid wall!
This is what ‘peace’ looks like for Israelians.
#ItsOnlyNewsWhenIsraelSuffersBecausePalestiniansGoThroughThisEverday
#ItsTheOccupation
if terror subsided, it was because of checkpoints and the wall- just like we all have to go through checkpoints on planes so that terrorists don’t bomb the plane.
OMG
Are you blind and did not see what I just said that there were years of peace and calm and Palestinians got squat(except more racist Isreali colonial land thief settler squatters)
and you may be too young, since now all the hasbara department can hire are unemployed and young losers who were not even fit for the mandatory hasbara Israeli army conscription brain-washing, too remember or know that the Israelis dont’ mind a good plane hijacking if it was done by their own peoples like Dymshits–Kuznetsov hijacking affairs
and a little before my time but all the other terror acts by zionist extremists nationalist racists like the david hotel bombing and massacres like deir yassin , kafr qassam, khan younis, sabra shatilla, kubya
no years of peace and calm. years of palestinian terror. the moment palestinians have an MLK who says, we want to live as neighbors in peace, they will have a state. it’s already been offered to them and rejected several times. meanwhile, israel has a well functioning nation with a strong education system and economy. it’s working well enough. yes, israel would prefer to have no terror. but the palestinains are shooting themselves in the foot. every terror attack moves israelis further to the right and makes statehood less likely. palestinains celebrate each terror attack but gain nothing.
Google it and you will know the truth about how little the Palestinians get, in terms of freedom and rights to live, when the are ‘behaving’ like the israeli terrorists want them to.
2010,2011,2012 were very peaceful for Israel.
Not so for Palestinians.
The games are over.
Palestinians have a right to be free in their HOMELAND.
You can keep deluding yourself and making yourself look stupid and ignorant.
It is an established fact that the apartheid wall is built 100% on the Palestinian West Bank and has contributed very little in terms of security.
A wall can’t secure the hate and misinformation that Israel propagates.
Look at how easy it is to go over, under and through the apartheid wall.
GOOGLE
no missiles into israel = no bombs in gaza
the gaza leadership prepared for war by building terror tunnels to attack, not bomb shelters to protect
those arent missiles those are unguided bottle rockets made ingeniously from used car and bicycle parts wrapped with left over duct tape.
so scary
you wants scary are american made bombs dropped by american made drones by americans from LA speaking half-learned yiddish in Palestine.
now that is real scarry
And those tunnels are mainly humanitarian tunnels into Egypt
that provided vitals food, medicines, and other life-saving products to counter act the illegal and racist Israeli seige, and mowing the lawn policy.
Know your history and middle eastern facts before joining a grown up conversation
if their moms are so ineffective, then why would they NOT STOP ? they had a choice. stop sending missiles into israel, and avoid a war in gaza. or, continue sending missiles into israel, and have a war in gaza. the gaza leadership clearly made the choice for war. when isarel asked civilians to evacuate, hamas told their people not to, that it was psychological propaganda. and, hamas has plenty of money and materials to build terror tunnels, but not ONE BOMB SHELTER. while their leadership hides under a hospital.
Huh?
You know why israei bomb shelters work so well?
Because they’re built with US taxpayer money and they are defending against unguided bottle rockets…
You think a Palestinian bomb shelter is really going to be effective against the US bombs that Israel uses with pinpoint accuracy and lots of american-packed explosives?
Your hasbara reasoning is disgusting and makes no sense.
Even Jews in the Warsaw ghetto built a tunnel network so please take your racist hate mongering back to 1930s Germany when you’re not busy stealing Palestinian lands and killing their children
if the palestinians would stop killing they would have a state.
they should focus on building an economy and education system instead of senseless murdering which only leads to more bloodshed and no statehood. what is their goal? if the goal is a state, then they should build one. if their goal is to be irritating to israel, they can keep on doing what they’ve always done (murdering), and they’ll keep on getting what they’ve always gotten (nothing).
Again no terror from Palestinians in many instances in the near past…and their reward?
More apartheid, segregation, land stealing, baby killing, home demolitions, Jim crow discrimination.
Israel is a racist terror experiment gone wrong.
BDS
it was the terror attacks that led to the wall. no terror, there would have been no wall. nothing wrong with separation. more palestinain children died building the terror tunnels for hamas.
The apartheid wall was planned in the early 1990s and some say even earlier.
Way before the 2nd Palestinian uprising.
And why is all built well on the side of Palestinian West Bank lands instead of on the proposed border?
And why does Israel keep building settlements everywhere irrespective of the apartheid wall?
Is it because Israel has never declared borders(which is a great way to help steal more land)?
Or is it because Israel has no constitution(a good way to continue civil and human rights violations)?
Only dirtbag scummy land thief liar states don’t declare their borders and don’t have a constitution
yes, the hamas constitution is such a worthy document. maybe israel should adopt it and switch the places of Muslims and jews in that document.
Your weak and worthless attempt to try and claim that hamas represents all palestinians is quite shameless.
The Likud is mainstream trash. There are even more extreme settler colonial militaristic parties in israel who want nothing more to contain reigning destruction onto innocent Palestinians.
Shaked and Bennet and Lieberman and more are all high level elected terrorists for Israel.
And then there are the banned terrorists like Kehanists and don’t forget your friends the price taggers.
Your blind support of illegal colonial settlements and price tag attacks is demonstrative of a severe lack of morals and scruples.
Palestinians have a right to not have Israeli warlords run their world
hamas was elected by the people of gaza. of course there should have been elections again. it is their official platform, and it is clear on wanting to murder jews as well as blaming jews for all evils in history.
And israel elected Likud which is a spawn from the Irgun terror Gangs.
Have you read the Likud charter?
It’s from the 1970s which predates even the existence of Hamas.
Your lack of knowledge and continued purposeful ommission of the facts, over and over again proves how you don’t mind killing baby Palestinians and throwing American goodwill under the bus as long as Israel is defended.
DISGUSting
Hamas was voted in by gaza. Read their charter and see why Israel is reluctant to make deals with people who explicitly call for the murder of all Israelis.
no suicide bombings would have = no wall. During the 34 months from the beginning of the violence in September 2000 until the construction of the first continuous segment of the security fence at the end of July 2003, Samaria-based terrorists carried out 73 attacks in which 293 Israelis were killed and 1950 wounded. Post-separation barrier, Palestinian terror attacks dropped by 90%. Given that Israelis retaliate after terror attacks, the barrier has also saved palestinian lives.
What suicide bombers? There haven’t been any in years!
The bombers were already trending (along with the whole of thev2nd intifada! down).
And israel they started the apartheid wall in the 1990s before the 2nd intifada!
And if you are going to build a wall…THEN BUILD IT ON YOUR SIDE.
Building a wall on your neighbor’s side and stealing more land through wall building!?!
What in the world are you defending?
Falsely justified wall building and land stealing.
Disgusting
The wall and checkpoints have been effective in stopping the bombers. Just like we have airport security around the world thanks to Muslim terrorists.
And yet Hamas states it has operatives in the West Bank, “moderate” Fatah also proclaims the attacks stupid.
Abbas is fully cooperating with the Israeli military to prevent Hamas operating in the West Bank and also preventing guns at the protests
Facts.
Blame hamas yeah sure
Blame israel
So you’re okay with dead Jews?
no he is not. He is enabling Hamas. He recongizes Hamas as an actual regime. So yes blame Hamas.
i am happy native americans aren’t randomly stabbing and bombing other americans, but it sounds like you would welcome that violence?
How dare you tarnish and belittle the suffering that Native Americans have experienced.
Your insensitive and immature hate speech is duly noted for wanted it is: anti-palestinian hate speech.
Palestinians have a right to defend themselves in their homeland from foreign illegal immigrant invaders who would like to do nothing more than replicate the policies of 1930s Germany.
America first
Not Israel
Free palestine
their version of “defending themselves” has not gotten them anything but further bloodshed.
If they want to leave in peace, they can build a state and economy and society. they could have had a state in 1948, but instead tried to destroy israel. they have repeated this many times, and each time they lose more. they keep using the same violent tactics and it gets them nowhere.
Just like your girlfriend Blibi netanyahoo be saying about living by the sword….the Israelians only know the language of hate, violence, fear, intimidation
It only becomes newsworthy violence when your beloved chosen people and gods favorite real estate clients are getting hurt and scared.
The palestinians have no army, no tanks, no subs, no nukes, no vests, goggles, boots, helmets, radios, no US money and no European neutrality.
Palestinians only have rocks and camels and bottle rockets and some holes in the ground and this is what puts Israelians in diapers and blinds the US congress into sending welfare checks and welfare tanks and welfare bullets to the Israelian offense Forces?
Disgusting
no actually the israelis have a very good quality of life. the palestinains don’t work on developing their society toward modernity, they just focus on hating jews.
Quite racist of a statement wouldn’t you say?
Keep going because I just can’t make up this level of hate, fear, racism, exceptionalism, and blind ineptitude that Israel-Firster hasbara terrorists are trained so well at being .
it’s not racist. i wish the palestinians would use their intellect and money and work time to build their own society. instead they waste their time in life concocting made up delusional tales about jews and the idea that they will defeat/destroy israel. meanwhile, Israel is living a very good quality of life.
Let’s see how you use your ‘intellect’ when you are under a military occupation with your water rationed , family members killed, no rights and no freedoms…the average Israeli makes 15x more income than an average Palestinian!
Your comparisons are very racists inconsiderate, thoughtless, callous, immature, limited in scope, heartless, and quite blind to reality.
what don’t you get about ethnic cleansing, seige, occupation, refugees of Palestinians?
And why don’t you see capital and resources that were pumped into zionism like the transfer agreements with the 1930s and 1940s German government.
Your hasbara comparisons are like comparing apples to oranges.
That’s like saying why are Native Americans not as successful as the rest of white america.
Disgusting.
BDS
more peacefulness will lead to more freedom. more missiles and knife attacks will lead to less freedom.
And in 2010 and 2011 there was no violence from Palestinians.
Israelis were feeling safe and quite.
And the Palestinians kept getting killed and injured and land stolen and civil rights violated and no freedom to travel and marry…
NO JUSTICE NO PEACE
FREE PALESTINE.
The standard of living in West Bank and gaza is far superior to the majority of the worlds poor and destitute.
it’s not racist at all. i am 100% certain that the Palestinians are as capable of building a tolerant, functioning, vibrant, educated, economically viable society as any other people on earth. So far they;ve put all their financial and intellectual resources and time to hating Israel and thinking about “destroying” Israel rather than building their own society.
It’s called an illegal military occupation.
Learn about it.
What people can be economically stable when they are slaves?
Your support of racist economic policies of Israel against Palestinians shows how little compassion and inderstanding you have about humanity in general and about Palestinians specifically.
Why do you unconditionally hate Palestinians?
Why do you make every hasbara lie and excuse to defend the aprtheid policies of Israel?
Is it because you can’t think for yourself?
There need be no occupation when Palestinians accept Israel as reality and won’t be a terror state dedicated to terrorizing Israel. As of now the majority of aid money is spent on weapons and terror tunnels, not education and economic growth.
I’m not belittling natiev america suffering
every nation on earth has a troubled history
many have suffered far more than the palestinians and move on with their lives. Japanese people are not retaliating against america for hiroshima. MOVE ON.
yes you are belittling the native americans
and you not even realizing you doing the belittling of native americans is typical of a hasbara propagandists who is blindly supporting the racist terror apartheid state of israel
And fyi
The japanese received a massive influx of US money Marshall Plan and preferential trade agreements with the US and that is how, as you so condescendingly say ‘Move ON’…
on the otherhand the Palestinians have the illegal boot of a military occupation on their necks constantly in the west bank, and are considered a 5th column in East Jerusalem, and 2nd class Jim Crow citizens in Israel proper, and dont forget about the right of refugee situation, and the illegal gaza open air prison seige..
i could go on
i’m sure you’ve read the hamas charter. it reminds me of the US constitution and the declaration of independence (not). it’s the lunatic ravings of madmen intent on wanton killing and hatred of jews.
You forgot to mention the Likud charter which is the epitome of racism 1930s German style….and it predates anything hamas.
And you forgot that israel have a lot of resources and help to hamas in order to counter the rise of Yasser Arafat.
You don’t like to deal with the PLO?
Good then deal with hamas which is your Israeli creation anyways.
Palestinians have a right ro full civil and human rights free from hasbara lies and propaganda
Not enough people in America know the extent of israeli atrocities against the Palestinians and don’t realize israel is a racist terror apartheid state built on lies, violence, land stealing and ethnic cleansing.
People in America know outlandish propaganda when we read it. And we recent people who lie to us.
You mean when Nuttyahoo goes on TV and tells Israelites that Americans can be easily moved to do his bidding
or when golda meir says racist vitriol
or when Israel MKs call Palestinians women snakes who should be killed
or when Lieberman and Bennet brags about how many Palestinians they have murdered
Or when Bibi blames the Palestinians for the holocaust
or when Israelians lie and say they were attacked first in 1967?
or that there isn’t apartheid? no jim Crow? no discrimination? no Isreali jewiish only roads?
Americans aren’t stupid
not israel
not israel
Clearly, you’re more then a little one sided on this. I could counter everything you’ve written, but what’s the point? You won’t except the truth. And the truth is, since 1948, the Arabs have been trying to destroy Israel. Israel has defended itself from genocide. Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Hezbollah all openly admit that they would kill every Jew in Israel tomorrow if they could. Read the Hamas Charter. They don’t deny it. And who do you think supports all these proxy armies? It is the same Arab countries that have been trying to destroy Israel for decades. If you side with them, you side with the people who actually want to commit genocide.
Have your read the likud charter claiming maximal land and denial of Palestine civil and human rights?
And this was written over 20 years before the hamas Charter!(and whose hamas leaders constant proclaim their charters are more a historical document then an ideological guide, unlike the Likuds’s!)
Get a hasbara grip but Hamas has nothing on Israeli likud racism and land stealing violence
Palestine never existed as a state. The jews were living in that land for over 2000 years CONSISTENTLY. After the state of Israel was founded, they let people stay, but over 700k decided to leave, ON THEIR OWN. There were a few jewish nationals and thats about it. It is not a racist issue, it is a religious issue, especially since the Palestinians and israelis look very similar.
So having Palestinians knifing people to death or naming a child the “Knife of Jerusalem” is okay with you Mr. BigStick?
And worshiping baruch Goldstein or voting in wanted terrorists like Menachem begin, or bragging about grenading women and children like Ariel Sharon or bragging about killing arabs like Bennet, or sending money to Israeli Kehanists or chanting death to Arabs at Beitar Jerudalem soccer games, or supporting price tag attacks, or burning down christian churches , or burning down 1000 year old olive trees, apartheid walls, or firebombing homes with children inside, or the illegal occupation , illegal seige, 50 Jim Crow style descrimination laws inIsrael….
I could go on
The countless massacres at deir yassin and kafr qassam and kibya and khan younis and sabra shatila and broken bones policy and mowing the lawn policy and Samson option policy and negotiating in bad faith policy and divide and conquer policy
I could go on
If you really want to keep score
Don’t insult me with your lack of knowledge in regards to the breadths and depth of israeli atrocities against the Palestinians
Dead Jews okay with you then right National Socialist?
Violence and killing of innocent people is unacceptable, no matter what side of a conflict is involved. Expansionists who continue with illegal settlements in someone else’s lands and clearly oppose peace talks are responsible for the deaths of innocent people.
Violence and killing of innocent people is unacceptable, no matter what side of a conflict is involved.
Then write something about Hamas suicide bombers, terror tunnels and 18,000 rockets fired into Israel. Prove that your outrage isn’t so selective and tell the truth.
And don’t you forget that Israel was founded on terror acts by extremist Jewish terrorists and that their future prime minister was the most wanted terrorist Menachem Begin who orchestrated a terror bombing of the David Hotel, in addition to
lynching Palestinians women (and other horrific abuses….this is what you support? disgusting), assassinating British and European diplomats and promoting ethnic cleansing.
Your unconditional support of extremist Israeli Jewish terrorism is appalling and needs to be called out for what it is….racist and bigoted incitement.
That is why the Jewish Defense League is outlawed in the United States because Jewish extremist terrorism has an ugly history of violence and murder against Palestinians americans and their supports.
REmember Rachel Corrie
and stop worshipping the extremist Israeli American jewish colonial settler who commited atrocities in Hebron Baruch Goldstein.
Israel was not founded by terrorists and extremists. Israel was formerly recognized by the UN. Compared to most states in the region that established governments through military coups and violent overthrows, the recognition of Israel was one of the most legal state creations in the region.
Why do you write such things?
Sure
a bunch of hooligan extremist armed foreign immigrant terrorists fresh from being schooled in national socialism (1930s Germany anyone) unilateral declaring a state with undeclared borders (still undeclared!)…..
The irgun and stern gangs were terrorists
Haavara agreement anyone..
If a bunch of foreign armed illegal immigrants unilaterally established a country without your permission in your house I’m sure you would be a happy camper.
Your ignorance and hypocrisy is stunning.
next thing your gonna say is Palestinians caused the holocaust and whoopi Goldberg deserves to own land in Palestine because she is Jewish.
Disgusting
Palestinians are the real semites and not fake invaders from another land
The Stern gang is barely worth mentioning. I think they had about 10 attacks. The Irgun had more attacks. I believe they had about 50 total over 5 years. How does this compare to Hamas? Hamas has over 18,000 rocket attacks along, and that doesn’t even count the suicide bombers. Once you factor in Hezbolla, Islamic Jihad, and the PLO, you have well over 30,000 Arab terrorist attacks compared to about 60 Jewish extremist attacks. So those are the number we are talking about. It is pretty easy to see who the real terrorists are.
Both Palestinian Jews and Palestinian Arabs had legitimate claims to the territory called Palestine. The UN divided Palestine between the two people who had legitimate claims because both wanted a government of their own. The Jews accepted their share of Palestine and declared the state of Israel. The Palestinians rejected their state if it meant that they had to accept a Jewish state. 5 Arab states then declared war and tried to destroy Israel and failed.
No one stole land. This is what actually happened. There are plenty of history books and archived articles to back this up. Why do you dispute it?
Nothing you said was true
King David hotel bombing was perpetrated by the future Israelian leader menachem begin who was the most wanted terrorist in the world,
Face it
Early ZIONIST extremist jewish terrorists were no better than any other terrorists.
Killing civilians and cowardly using bombs is not ok just because you say so.
And what about the mass murders during the Nakba like deir Yassin and then the enemy combatant status of civilian palestinians that led to the kafr qassam massacre.
The amount of death and destruction Israelis have done over the years is truly disgusting and unfortunately not enough americans know about them
Everything I said was accurate. I invite people to look it up on Wikipedia and compare the radical Islamic terror groups to early Israel fighters. The numbers speak for themselves.
Also, the Jews were refugees actually fighting for survival. Radical Islamist are trying to re-create the Caliphate. Their driven by conquest, not survival. You point to the King David hotel bombing in 1946. Yes, early Israel fighters fought the British imperialism. So did the USA. But radical Islamist aren’t fighting imperialism. Radicals Islamist seek to conquer the middle east and restore the Caliphate. One need only read the Hamas Charter or listen to ISIS terrorists to know this is true.
You rant on and on about how terrible Israel is, but whenever people compare the amount of terrorism done by Jewish extremists to the amount of terrorism done by Islamic extremists, they see the actual ratios. The ratio is about 500 attacks from Palestinian extremists compared to 1 attack from Jewish extremists. And this doesn’t even consider all the terrorism coming from groups outside of Palestine, like ISIS, Al Shabob and others.
People have eyes. They can see who is committing acts of terror all over the world and they see that much of it has nothing to do with Israel. Jihadists are at war with the rest of the world. You support some of the worst organizations on the planet. So when you scream terrorism, do you really think anyone cares what you think?
Palestinians own land in Israel and in Palestine. yet, it is punishable by death for a Palestinian to sell land to a jewish person in the west bank or gaza. Racist?
Why would anyone want to sell land to baby killers and land thief ethnic cleansers?
And let’s see you post about Palestinians buying a house in an Israel settlement where only Jewish Extremists are allowed to go,
Or let’s see a Palestinian rent an apartment in a non-Arab neighbor in 1948 Palestine.
Your juvenile misinformation and defense of racist Israeli policies is atrocious
Nothing you say is true.
Almost all land in israel (95%) is owned by Israel Land Administration!
Shows either how little you know, or how low you will go to lie and misinform people with your hasbara propaganda.
And what sense does it make to have 300 zionist settlers force themselves into the middle of downtown Hebron! Surrounded by almost 200,000 Palestinians. And then shut down and apartheid bantustan the Main Street making it Israel Jewish only!
Disgusting.
It didn’t work in Gaza (where you has 5,000 Israelis being military protected from the 2 million Palestinians they were stealing land and bantustanizing)
I’m pretty sure the early founders of the invented racist aprtheid state were terrorists
They committed terror acts
Just calling a spade a spade
Israeli jewish terrorism and gang violence were and still are an issue that unconditional israeli-lovers have trouble dealing with due to the low life extremes they are not afraid to go to for their cause
Early founders of Israel fought British imperialism for independence, just like the USA did. If you want to call the founding fathers of the USA terrorists, go ahead, but you’re not fooling anyone. In the meanwhile, you are supporting true terrorist groups who openly call for genocide. That makes you a pretty sick puppy in your own right.
no one worships baruch goldstein, he is known universally as a crazed murderer. on the flip side, Palestinains routinely celebrate and honor murderers.
Sure
That’s why they have road signs to show directions to his memorial in israel
And there is an official day off holiday in israel to worship the Goldstein terrorist
And there is a 3 year waiting list just to sign up for the pilgrimage , but not before you have served your mandatory military conscription in the israeli offense forces, and have destroyed the lives of at least 9 Palestinian families.
#TearDownTheGoldsteinMemorialBecauseHeWasATerrorist
that’s completely untrue and totally ridiculous. It’s the palestinians who have martyr posters celebrating terrorists and name public squares and streets after terrorists.
Go dance on your racist baby-killing, apartheid-loving, fascist-striving, right-wing religious colonial settler streets named after terrorists, ethnic cleansers and advocates for hate and unjustified incitement against innocent Palestinians
like Jabotinsky Lane, and Begin avenue, Herzl boulevard…
pretty soon you can buy an overpriced, and previously occupied by Palestinians (before the Israelian ethnic cleansing Nakba campaign), on Buttyahoo street and meir kehane road
jews are native indigenous people of israel. palestinains left the area so the 5 arab armies could destroy israel. arabs lost that war.
hahahahahahahahahahahaYou mean most Ashkenazi Jews are native indigenes to Khazar which is modern day Ukraine.
I don’t think whoopi Goldberg and other american Jews can claim to be indigenous to Palestine.
Palestinians are indigenous to palestine and are true semites. Not the fake semites that are European land thieving colonial settler worshipperrs of 1930s gestapo policies.
Transfer/HAAVARA agreements anyone?
Come back to the adult conversation when you actually know some basic history because your hasbara lies are too easy to pop off on.
Palestinians are semites.
Germans are not semites.
Real talk
Free Palestine
the khazar myth has been totally disproven. mitochondrial dna studies show that we are from the middle east. Glad that Mizrachi jews can stay in israel.
When we lived in europe, all europeans knew we weren’t european but from the middle east.
You obviously don’t know why I the world you’re talking about.
Do you know how to google?
Ever heard of fact check?
I hope you’re getting paid for your blind faith to Zionist madness.
And you especially don’t know the difference between Ashkenazis from Khazar and Mizrahi.
And your lame attempt to deny chromosal and genetic evidence is appalling.
Palestinians are indigenes.
Israelis are not .
Israelis don’t even describe themselves by nationality on their ID cards….they’re labeled by religion!
Palestinians have a right to live in a land that is not a ethno-religious theocracy built on lies and violence.
Free Palestine
Yes, Judaism accepts converts, but dna studies have disproven the khazar myth. jews are semitic people from the middle east. and 50% of israelis are mizrachim who never left the middle east. In most Jewish populations, these male line ancestors appear to have been mainly Middle Eastern. For example, Ashkenazi Jews share more common paternal lineages with other Jewish and Middle Eastern groups than with non-Jewish populations in areas where Jews lived in Eastern Europe, Germany and the French Rhine Valley https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_studies_of_Jewish_origins
Whatever weak claims converted Jewish people have to live in Palestine….Palestinians hve the same exact claims but with a greater magnitude.
Why don’t you look up the genetics of Palestinians?
Or do your hasbara slave holders not pay you enough to learn the truth?
Palestinians are more semitic than Ashkenazi and have lived in Palestine and the holy land longer and more intimately than any of your misinformed and lame ZIONIST lies.
Free Palestine
I’m pretty sure whoopi Goldberg, Joan rivers, Howard stern and Mark Zuckerberg are NOT from the Middle East
SMH
PALESTINE IS IN THE MIDDLE EAST. Palestinians are real Semites and not fake wannabe land thieves from other lands.
So Mizrahi Jews are allowed to stay in Israel?
I’m just as sure Howard stern and mark zuckerberg are not ethnically polish or Russian or wherever their semetic ancestors emigrated to
Arabs are from Arabia.
an official holiday to worship goldstein? 100% completely ridiculously untrue. It’s the pals who celebrate murderers and martyrdom when they kill people.
Time to take your life sized posters of Goldstein and Pollard down.
Israeli terrorists shouldn’t be admired
Free Palestine
The recent violence occurred in the West Bank and not a single rocket was fired to Israel from there. So keep your facts straight before trying to cover up the Israel crimes and illegal settlements. The claim that Israel is defending itself is BS, since no rocket was fired from the West Bank into Israel and the underlying cause of violence is the Israel’s apartheid and expansionist policies.

The palestinian use of violence has gotten he palestinains nowhere.
Israel is not an apartheid state. Look up the definition of apartheid dumb a$$. Israel houses over 1.6 million Arab Muslims. They have full rights. Hamas has fired over 1000 rockets from Gaza and has incited terror in Jerusalem. You know who is an apartheid state? Palestine. I guess you forgot how high they hang gays there. I guess you forgot that they do not have freedom of speech or press. If you are a woman, you are treated as a second class citizen, if you are a jew or a christian, you are considered an infidel.
Bull. Keep your facts straight before you make excuses for Hamas – a terrorist organization that openly calls for the murder of every Jew on earth. Israel is defending itself. The underlying cause of the violence is the never ending effort to destroy Israel. The Arabs have been trying to destroy Israel long before there was any occupation and settlements. Learn some facts and history.
settlements can be evaciuated, as they were in gaza. killed people cannot be brought back to life.
“About 70 Palestinians have died due to Israeli gunfire since early October…”
No mention of the dozens of knife attacks carried out by Palestinian terrorists against innocent Israeli civilians that prompted their getting shot by police (if that’s what we’re apparently calling “gunfire” these days…)
Such biased and incomplete reporting, Daily Bruin. For shame.
They also forgot to mention that over 2000 Palestinian children have been shot by the Israelian military in the month of October.
There is also the massacres of deir yassin
kafr qassam
khan younis
kubya
sabra shatilla
broken bones policy
mowing the lawn policy
Samson option policy
illegal apartheid in the west bank
illegal siege on gaza
refusal of refugee rights
Jim Crow discrimination in Israel proper
Hasbara lies and misinformation
land for people for people without land is a lie
forgot to mention the Hussein-McMahon correspondce
forgot to mention that the balfour declaration called for no prejudicial treatment of the Palestinian arabs
forgot to mention that the peel commission called for a Just division of the land
forgot to mention that the UN unjustly divided the land
and the UN recognition of Israel was based on establishing 2 states for 2 people
and that Israel surprised attacked in 1947, 1956, 1967,1982,1987,2000,2002,206,2009,210,2012,2012
Israel is a racist terror state built on lies, violence, and misinformation
Palestinians have a right to full civil and human rights and have a right to have their voices heard free from hasbara intimidation and bullying
Palestine and its supporters are a cult. You’ll end up like Mr. BigStick over here being sadly brainwashed.
Both Israelis and Palestinians stink. There, I resolved all the fighting below.
Israel has every right to defend itself against the murderous savagery of Hamas and other nihilistic hate groups hiding behind the prophet Muhammed.
