The "Free Palestine" chant doesn't have to make sense. It only needs to unite all against the symbol of "evil" — the one they declared the barrier to a more "just" world: the Jew.
It means murder. That's what it has always meant. From the day Israel was born until today. The Palestinian National Movement is a death cult that exalts in violence and death.
What an idiotic comment. On the day Israel was "born (reborn, really)," it was invaded by 5 genocidal Arab armies. How twisted you must be, to think that a country sitting on 1/6 of 1% of the Middle East, 6 million or so Jews, is "slaughtering its neighbors," hundreds of millions of Muslims. Israel hasn't started a single war. The Arabs f*ck with Israel, then cry "Victim!" when Israel wins. And you fall for it. Pathetic.
You're absolutely right. Hating Israel, and finding new ways to stir up hatred and incite violence against it, have become the current purity test for anyone who wants to be accepted as a liberal devoted to human rights.
We need to stop calling those who are in Gaza or in Judea and Samaria "Palestinians". We should call those who live in Gaza Arabs from Gaza. Those who live in Judea and Samaria are Arabs from Judea and Samaria. Those citizens of Israel are Arab citizens from Israel. Otherwise we need to call all people descended from time of the British Mandate Palestinian in birthplace. Including Jews.
Once we stop contributing to the problem, these monikers will be more clear. Free free Palestine will be rejected everywhere as except for Roman and British Empire rules, the name of Israel was Israel, or the Holy Land, or Judea. And it will be clear that what is being asked for is a return to Ottoman Empire worldwide.
"Goy" slang for "Gentile." I've never heard a Jew use "untermensch," so I don't see any relevancy. I have heard "kike," "heeb," "yahud," and all the rest. Did you know that the common Arab word for a black person is "Abeed," which translates to "slave?" There are still Arab slave markets in Libya. Why don't we talk about them? Or China putting 1 million Uighur Muslims in re-education camps? Or Myanmar's persecution of its Rohingya Muslims? Or the Muslim Genocide of Nigerian Christians? As I write this, Bangladesh Islamists are wreaking havoc on Hindus. There's so much worse in the world than what is contained in your Jew-obsessive bubble. Time for some perspective, buddy.
Zionism is the Jewish desire for self determination in our ancestral land. If you think that's anything like Naziism, you have a lot of studying to do. Read some books about the Holocaust, or "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich." Or any of the hundreds of thousands of other books about Nazi Germany. BTW, in the conflict between Israel and the so-called "Palestinians," the latter are the Nazis. In fact, at the end of WWII, Arabs sheltered Nazis. Watch the documentary "Nazi Jihad." Much of today's terror is based on Nazi tactics. Same for today's Jew-hating propaganda and imagery. Calls for boycotts, exclusion of Zionists from universities - straight out of the Nuremberg Laws. Pogroms copied from Krystallnacht.
Why don't you compare Israel's Declaration of Independence to Hamas' Charter, and get back to me, to give your opinion on which document is civilized and which is savage? Or compile a list of Jews who, over the past 50 years, hijacked jets, went on stabbing sprees, attacked music concerts, drove vans through crowds of Christmas shoppers, etc. I think you're focused on the wrong ethnic group. Do you own a keffiyeh?
Susan, you are absolutely right. I hope that your voice is heard and that thinking people will listen and understand. I don’t know if anything will enlighten the ignorant and unthinking mob, but if enough people know the truth, maybe the idiocy will fall out of fashion.
I freeze every time I hear or read Judea and Samaria referred to as The West Bank. Nowhere in the middle east does an area have a title that has no historical meaning at all. It was invented by the Jordanians to delegitimise Jews from living there - and being for the most part their land.
In the UK there is a growing support for Israel and the realisation that the 'Free Palestine' chants are empty rhetoric meaning nothing other than Jew hatred. The 'Pallywood' vids from Gaza are so obviously false that a child could see them for what they are. Unfortunately - (and I confronted it just this weekend) there are well meaning Brits that by into the Lies propagated by our broadcasters and newspapers. They accepted the 14,000 babies will die in 48 hours lie told on BBC by the UN representative (a Brit) Tim Fletcher. The result - more worldwide condemnation of Israel (Jews) and the murder of Sarah and Yaron in DC.
There’s no question about what it means. Islam as a religion calls for the abuse , rape and murder of all who don’t bow to Allah. That means you, eventually.
Please recognize and actively engage in these measures because adversaries that meet resistance are less likely to continue being aggressive against Jews.
Thank you Sam for this thoughtful piece. While waiting for our adversaries to change, it is incumbent on us all to learn how to protect ourselves and our communities in lawful ways. Now that adversaries are practicing concealed carry with handguns the calculus has shifted. Situational awareness training (eg by The Secure Community Network), self-defense (eg Krav Maga) training, and defensive weapons training and certification are available to the Jewish community. When attending pro-Israel events situational awareness and self defense skills are valuable. Never bring weapons to protests. If you spot an adversary practicing concealed weapons carry, immediately notify police and FBI. There are abundant facial recognition cameras throughout the US Please let the police and FBI that you’re willing to confidentially review images of adversaries you suspect are practicing concealed carry. US Departments of State and Justice are making aggressive inroads against educational and non-educational institutions harboring anti-US and anti-Israel and anti-Semitic foreign and domestic actors. US-based Conservative and Jewish organizations have filed consequential lawsuits against educational and non educational institutions receiving federal funding and grants.
We need to recognize that the chant is the tail end of the full message. What they are screaming is plain. "Reject the tyrant God, Free Palestine." It goes along with the full abortion chant. "We demand unrestricted sex!"—which is transcribed into the euphemism of choice. The trouble with the Jews is that they serve the only true God, using His operating manual, the Torah. Since many Jews are now atheists there is a lot of confusion. All of this will be resolved over the next decade or so. The Messiah will be here soon.
Yes. The Wrath of God is coming very soon. It's certainly part of the reason—one of the main ones. But probably within a decade, it will all be resolved and the haters will be gone. We all need to make sure we are reborn and have a tight relationship with Yeshua Messiah. He's our only protection from the Wrath. Ask Him directly. He'll tell you the Truth.
Excellent and truthful essay! Thank you! What will be the end of this tyranny, if there is an end at all? I will tell you this, Israel was given to the Jews by a “Divine Land Grant” from God and Israel shall remain forever! It’s the Promised Land for the Jews since Moshe led the “Children of Israel” out of Egypt. In the Bible it was called The Land of Canaan they were headed to where God HIMSELF led them by a Cloud by day and fire by night! ISREAL is here to stay no matter what slogan people scream! The Land of Israel is GOD’S land, no one will get rid of the Jews, NOT EVER! A two State Solution? NEVER! Land for Peace! That was a huge mistake! All through history Israel never started a war, October 7, 2023 who struck first? Not Israel! Israel looked as though it was going down many times but did it? No and never will!
It means murder. That's what it has always meant. From the day Israel was born until today. The Palestinian National Movement is a death cult that exalts in violence and death.
Yes, your first 3 sentences are correct.
From the day Israel was born, it has slaughtered its neighbours.
This must stop!

Free free Israel.
Call them whatever you wish, just stop the genocide.
Israel won't have a friend left if she continues to murder innocents.
We won't look away.
The only genocide was on 10/7/23. Or did you conveniently forget what triggered the war, or Hamas leaders' promises to repeat 10/7 "again and again?" Israel lives next door to an insane asylum: https://www.timesofisrael.com/idf-publishes-audio-of-hamas-terrorist-calling-family-to-brag-of-killing-jews/
Spoken like someone who doesn't understand Nazis or Israel, but just likes using the word "Nazi."

Smart Jews escaped Hitler before it was too late. But Hitler didn't want them taking their wealth with them, so basically they paid their own ransom. The Jews who stayed behind were later murdered. Even Jews who fled for other parts of Europe were hunted down and murdered, if the countries to which they escaped from Germany later came under German occupation. Here's an article explaining the agreement: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/world-history/adolf-hitler-zionism-zionist-nazis-haavara-agreement-ken-livingstone-labour-antisemitism-row-a7009981.html You keep challenging me with innocuous things that don't support your bias.
Why don't you compare Israel's Declaration of Independence to Hamas' Charter, and get back to me, to give your opinion on which document is civilized and which is savage? Or compile a list of Jews who, over the past 50 years, hijacked jets, went on stabbing sprees, attacked music concerts, drove vans through crowds of Christmas shoppers, etc. I think you're focused on the wrong ethnic group.

Free Palestine is an empty slogan about a non existent people. The place has never existed and neither have the so called Palestinian people
Thank you Susan, keep saying it. Hopefully, it will get through to the brainwashed young people and everyone else. Am Yisrael Chai ❤️
Perfect, Susan.!

It was never about "Palestine". It was a created tactic to destroy Israel and the Jews: https://thetruthfulproject.blogspot.com/2023/03/appeared-in-jerusalem-post-edited-for.html
I always love asking "do you know the origin of the word 'Palestine'? They don't.
The answer: https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/398384
There’s no question about what it means. Islam as a religion calls for the abuse , rape and murder of all who don’t bow to Allah. That means you, eventually.
Muslims will rape anything
They say free, they mean Judenfrei.

I hope so. Let's ask for it
The prophets clearly say it will be soon. Ask him to tell you. You'll probably have to ask Yeshua. Ask Him if you can talk with Him.
Yes. The Wrath of God is coming very soon. It's certainly part of the reason—one of the main ones. But probably within a decade, it will all be resolved and the haters will be gone.
