They call Jews “colonizers” because in the Western progressive imagination, Jews are simply filed under “white,” and “white” automatically means oppressor. That framing erases Mizrahi Jews, Ethiopian Jews, Yemenite Jews, Sephardic Jews, and even the Middle Eastern roots of Ashkenazi Jews. It is propaganda by simplification: reduce Jews to “white Europeans,” reduce Israel to “colonialism,” and then every fact that complicates the story disappears.

And you’re right: the Marxist-Islamist alliance has made inversion into an art form. They turn indigenous Jews into colonizers, terrorists into resistance fighters, and Jewish self-defense into aggression. Meanwhile, our side keeps answering slogans with footnotes. Until Jews learn to fight the propaganda war with clear, repeated, emotionally powerful truths, the facts will keep losing to the slogans.

Any argument or explanation is dismissed by our enemies as “hasbara lies”. And their arguments shapeshift: for example, one day they may say that today’s Jews aren’t the real Jews of antiquity or that “Palestinians” are actually the real Jews and that even Jesus was “Palestinian”.

Yes they are, and while pedo Mo was trying to win over the Jews to become a part of his tribe and recognize him as a prophet, Jews were good and deserving, but when the leaders of the Jewish people proved he was a charlatan and not a prophet at all, his attitude towards the Jews changed from one of kindness to one of "Jews Bad, kill them all", it can be seen throughout the Quran, and as he dictated it it went from praising and protecting the people of the book to kill them all on sight or he cannot return as their redeemer, the death of every Jew on the planet is his final command to all of his followers so if you think for even one moment there can be peace between Jews and islamists, I have a bridge I would love to sell you.

Such a pity you have to defend yourself along these lines. It is good to be prepared, however, for whatever in the future.

Thanks for the gingers in Syria. That knowledge will help in my arguments.
