There is no Jewish State. Let's clear that up. Israel is a country ran by a government that supports Zionism, a colonialist theory that the rightful occupiers shall be the Jewish faith.
It's a far right ideology that is sown into the minds of American politicians, media agitators and trolls online. The American enablers believe Israel has the right to exist and they have a right to defend itself. In their minds, Israel has done nothing wrong. Anyone who criticizes the Israeli government is anti-Semitic.
Israeli strikes on the Gaza Strip have killed thousands of Palestinians. |
Hamas is a political arm of the Gaza Strip. It also follows a militant belief that the occupiers of the kingdom are to be deposed. They vow to liberate the region from the apartheid sponsored by Israel and the United States. They often clash with the West Bank leadership of the Palestinian Liberation Organization. The president of the Palestinian West Bank is Mahmud Abbas.
Abbas is calling upon world leaders to put sanctions on Israel and force war crime charges on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Reuven Rivlin.
The Israeli government continues to force families out of their homes. They destroy their homes and built luxury homes for wealthy Israelis, European and American Jews. They build walls to prevent Palestinian citizens from traveling on the roads.
They are also shooting and brutally attacking Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
We cannot keep the charade up for long. The images are being streamed through social media and folks are noticing the inhumane treatment.
The far right and the United States are seeing a reckoning with this continuous conflict in the Middle East.
The two state solution is a farce. The U.S. had already chosen a side. When Washed Up 45 and Republicans voted to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, the world gasped.
It literally was condemned. World leaders believed it damaged any possibility of a mutual agreement between the warring factions.
Rashida Tlaib has been very vocal about Israeli occupation of the West Bank. |
There is only a few times I will agree with Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI). We need to pressure President Joe Biden to take action on the war crimes committed by the Israeli government. Tlaib is born and raised in Detroit but her family immigrated to the United States from the Kingdom of Palestine. The kingdom was dissolved into a British emirate and then became Israel in 1947 after the Jewish settlers made land there after the Holocaust.
The Michigan lawmaker is a controversial figure in her own right because she is a part of the do nothing members of the Squad. Its composed of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) and Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY).
Tlaib, Omar and Rep. Andre Carson (D-IN) are the only Muslims in Congress.
Tlaib is all talk and no action. She has not introduced a bill on the floor calling for an immediate investigation into American funds being used by the Israeli government.
The Israeli government has thumbed its nose at the United Nations when it comes to the rights of those living in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
Israeli police firing tear gas, stun grenades and rubber bullets clashed with stone-throwing Palestinians at a flashpoint Jerusalem holy site on Monday, the latest in a series of confrontations that threatened to push the contested city toward wider conflict.
More than a dozen tear gas canisters and stun grenades landed in the Al-Aqsa mosque, situated in a compound sacred to both Jews and Muslims, said an Associated Press photographer at the scene. Smoke rose in front of the mosque and the iconic golden-domed shrine on the site, and rocks littered the surrounding plaza. Inside one area of the compound, shoes and debris lay scattered over ornate carpets.
It's time for the U.S. to do something to punish Israel for war crimes. |
More than 270 Palestinians were hurt, including 205 who went to hospitals and clinics for treatment, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent. Five of the injured were in serious condition. Police said nine officers were hurt, including one who was hospitalized.
Monday’s confrontation was the latest in the sacred compound after weeks of mounting tensions between Palestinians and Israeli troops in the Old City of Jerusalem, the emotional center of their conflict. The clashes have come during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, already a time of heightened religious sensitivities.
Most recently, the tensions have been fueled by an eviction plan in an Arab neighborhood of east Jerusalem where Israeli settlers have waged a lengthy legal battle to take over properties.
Hundreds of Palestinians and about two dozen police officers have been hurt over the past few days in clashes at the the sacred compound, which is known to Jews as the Temple Mount and to Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary. The compound, which, has been the trigger for rounds of Israel-Palestinian violence in the past, is Islam’s third-holiest sit and considered Judaism’s holiest.
An AP photographer at the scene said that early Monday morning, protesters had barricaded gates to the walled compound with wooden boards and scrap metal. Sometime after 7 am., clashes erupted, with those inside throwing stones at police deployed outside. Police entered the compound, firing tear gas, rubber-coated steel pellets and stun grenades.

At some point, about 400 people, both young protesters and older worshippers, were inside the carpeted Al-Aqsa Mosque. Police fired tear gas and stun grenades into the mosque.
Police said protesters hurled stones at officers and onto an adjoining roadway near the Western Wall, where thousands of Israeli Jews had gathered to pray.
After several days of Jerusalem confrontations, Israel has come under growing international criticism for its heavy-handed actions at the site, particularly during Ramadan.
The U.N. Security Council scheduled closed consultations on the Jerusalem situation Monday. Diplomats said the meeting was requested by Tunisia, the Arab representative on the council.
Late Sunday, the U.S. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan spoke to his Israeli counterpart, Meir Ben-Shabbat, and urged calm. A White House statement said that Sullivan called on Israel to to “pursue appropriate measures to ensure calm” and expressed the U.S.’s “serious concerns” about the ongoing violence and planned evictions.
Netanyahu pushed back against the criticism Monday, describing Israel’s actions in Jerusalem as a law-and-order issue. Netanyahu said Israel is determined to ensure the rights of worship for all and that this “requires from time to time stand up and stand strong as Israeli police and our security forces are doing now.”
Ofir Gendelman, a spokesman for Netanyahu, claimed in a tweet that “extremist Palestinians planned well in advance to carry out riots” at the holy site.
In other violence, Palestinian protesters hurled rocks at an Israeli vehicle driving just outside the Old City walls. The driver appeared to lose control and slammed into bystander. Police said in a statement that two passengers were injured.
The day began with police announcing that Jews would be barred from visiting the holy site on what Israelis mark as Jerusalem Day, with a flag-waving parade through the Old City and its Muslim Quarter to the Western Wall, the holiest site where Jews can pray. The marchers celebrate Israel’s capture of east Jerusalem in the 1967 Mideast war.
In that conflict, Israel also captured the West Bank and Gaza Strip. It later annexed east Jerusalem, home to the city’s most sensitive holy sites, and considers the entire city its capital. The Palestinians seek all three areas for a future state, with east Jerusalem as their capital.
The police decision to ban Jewish visitors temporarily from the holy site came hours before the start of the Jerusalem Day march, which is widely perceived by Palestinians as a provocative display of Jewish hegemony over the contested city.
Police have allowed the parade to take place despite growing concerns that it could further inflame the tension after weeks of clashes between Israeli police and Palestinians in Jerusalem.
Violence has occurred almost nightly throughout Ramadan, beginning when Israel blocked off a popular spot where Muslims traditionally gather each night at the end of their daylong fast. Israel later removed the restrictions, but clashes quickly resumed amid tensions over the planned eviction of Palestinians from the Arab neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah.
Israel’s Supreme Court postponed a key ruling Monday that could have forced dozens of Palestinians from their homes, citing the “circumstances.”
The Israeli crackdown and planned evictions have drawn harsh condemnations from Israel’s Arab allies and expressions of concern from the U.S., European Union and United Nations.
The tensions in Jerusalem have threatened to reverberate throughout the region.
American media doesn't show the real issues going on in Israel. |
Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip have fired several barrages of rockets into Israel, and protesters allied with the ruling Hamas militant group have launched dozens of incendiary balloons into Israel, setting off fires across the southern part of the country.
“The occupier plays with fire, and tampering with Jerusalem is very dangerous,” Saleh Arouri, a top Hamas official, told the militant group’s Al-Aqsa TV station.
In response, COGAT, the Israeli defense ministry organ responsible for crossings with the Gaza Strip, announced Monday that it was closing the Erez crossing to all but humanitarian and exceptional cases until further notice.
“This measure follows the decision to close the fishing zone yesterday, and following rocket fire and the continued launching of incendiary balloons from the Gaza Strip toward the State of Israel, which constitute a violation of the Israeli sovereignty,” COGAT said in a statement.
