    I knew the Israeli-Palestine conflict would cone up eventually. I’m with him for most things up until that point. He called the attack on October 7th a “genocide”. Genocide is attempted eradication of a demographic of humanity deemed lesser by the attackers. The IDF is committing genocide against Palestine, not the other way around…

    On a side note, is there any truth in his claims about increasing antisemitic attacks on Jewish residents of, I’m guessing, the US? I know the acting President threw a sieg heil but if the US is really starting to go that way, that’s very worrying. Last time Jews were persecuted, at least 11 million ‘non-cishet-white-males’ were murdered alongside them.

      He is speaking at the ADL. And he thanks the Apartheid Defense League. Anyone appearing on that stage loses all credibility.
