Anger is a legitimate emotion in the face of injustice. Passive acceptance of evil is not a virtue.

Poor Israel? Sure, and I am Barack Obama!
I write from Geneva, where I was invited to speak at the UN "Durban II" conference on racism and have just today been spat at by two Israelis. I found myself (unknowingly) on what turned into a "bash Iran" panel with a problematic Zionist agenda. The expectation, perhaps, was that I, being Muslim and gay, would sit and join in the Iran-bashing choir. In doing the opposite I did not make myself the most popular person in the room. Later, two Israeli delegates spat at me. Surprisingly, an erudite Canadian professor and member of Parliament threw around a baffling and hard-to-explain term: "genocidal anti-Semitism". Only he knows what he means, I certainly do not!
Moshe Dayan said in 1956: “Who are we that we should argue against their hatred? For eight years now, they sit in their refugee camps in Gaza and, before their very eyes we turn into our homestead the land and the villages in which they and their forefathers have lived. We are a generation of settlers, and without the steel helmet and the cannon we cannot plant a tree and build a home.
ReplyDelete"Jewish villages were built in the place of Arab villages. You do not even know the names of these Arab villages, and I do not blame you because geography books no longer exist. Not only do the books not exist, the Arab villages are not there either. Nahlal arose in the place of Mahlul; Kibbutz Gvat in the place of Jibta; Kibbutz Sarid in the place of Huneifis; and Kefar Yehushua in the place of Tal al-Shuman. There is not a single place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population." Moshe Dayan, address to the Technion, Haifa, reported in Haaretz, April 4, 1969.
ReplyDeleteso? you're a double moron:
ReplyDeletea liberal apologist for terror-endorsing theocratic regimes that vow to destroy civil law;
and a simpering homo apologist for terror-endorsing despotic regimes that, at present, are torturing your fag brothers -- that is, the ones who, unlike you, havent' fled for the safety of the imperalistico-fascistico-patriarchio blah blah blah west (as mestizobin would say).
a waste of spit, i say.
kahein, you are a racist thief. pure and simple.
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing that these Zionist pigs think they are going to still influence this conference on racism with their own special brand of racism. Sick puppies
