Telling Jews to “go back to Poland,” when 90% of Poland’s Jews were murdered in the Holocaust—and those who returned after faced endless violence—has nothing to do with Gaza and everything to do with wanting Jews to be killed.

- Anne Frank is the "origin story of Israel" - 1967 war (in which Israel was attacked across three borders) was a "land grab" - Likening Israel's actions to slavery, Jim Crow, and apartheid - "Rising antisemitism is not happening in a vacuum" i.e. Jews have it coming Yeah great thinker here

There is no objective reporting in Gaza. No journalist works there without the express permission of Hamas, and no story comes out that would cast Hamas in a negative light. The casualty figures are false. Hamas censors EVERYTHING.

There is a huge deficit of accurate information about Israel, Palestinians, Jews, the entire history of the conflict. I believe that is the hardest part. Most people understand why Al Queda was evil. But they still think Hamas is a legitimate movement. Because they are woefully ignorant.

Respectfully, how much does Sullivan know about Israel-Hamas negotiations at this point? He has not been in government since January. The Houthis continue to attack Israel, and the situation in Syria is extremely unstable. So Israel still needs self-defense capabilities.

A reminder that as Hamas leaders are living in luxury in Qatar in a way than none of us will ever experience, they openly call for the sacrifice of Palestinians to help maintain their billionaire lifestyle. They sacrifice women and children. As their strategy. But, sure, it’s all the Jews fault.

No way Hamas allows any journalist to work in Gaza who does not spout the Hamas line. Hamas is a brutal terrorist group that oppresses Palestinians, yet all the news is criticism of Israel. There is a reason for that.
