So… Is this a reason for Censure in the House of Representatives of a free and democratic Congress? Or a result of political propaganda? Is there a difference between antisemitism and anti-Zionism? What is “apartheid”, and how long does it have to go on to be acknowledged? What is government sanctioned “colonialism” where indigenous people’s land is taken as they continuously face expulsion into “reservations”?

@GaryRLundberg There is a huge difference between the two. Not all Jews are Zionists, and not all Zionists are Jews. I know more Baptists that are fervent Zionists, and I am a non-Zionist Jew. @hapbt

@AlliFlowers @hapbt

I agree. It’s why I asked the questions. Thanks.

Israel over the decades has not codified an overall apartheid into law. But, have behaved close to the edge oftentimes. Systemically removing Palestinians from their land, by settlement and military action puts Israel deep in the colonial expulsion exploitation camp.

@GaryRLundberg They should have stopped the settlers from moving into Gaza as well, since Gaza was returned back in, what, 2005? @hapbt

@AlliFlowers @GaryRLundberg it's totally an affront to her right to free speech to speak about the country her ancestors are from, it's ridiculous and purely islamaphobic christofacism which we can see both parties are happy to engage in despite claims otherwise
