Likud created and funded Hamas, why is this so hard?
I take issue with much of the criticism leveled at Mayor Mamdani’s October 7 statement—not because it is undeserved, but because I believe it misses the deeper implication and is therefore far too mild.
His assertion that “the suffering did not begin nor end that day,” coupled with his references to occupation and apartheid, reads to me as more than a condemnation of Israel’s response. It implies that Israel created the conditions that brought about October 7 itself.
That implicit assignment of blame to the victims is what deserves the strongest condemnation.
Mamdani blames Israel (!) for October 7th itself.

Ontological warfare establishes which entities, experiences, and truths are permitted to exist within the recognized framework of reality.
Wait, are you telling me we weren’t promoting democracy around the world to make people free and keep ourselves free?

USians focusing their energy on Mamdani while their gvt and taxes are taking over Latin America and the Caribbean…
The people who want freedom and democracy and sovereignty are being linked to Iran, North Korea, drug cartels, sometimes Putin, terrorists, etc. It’s a sickening inversion. Also, why are the Democrats, a right wing CIA party, accepting this framing?
I’m starting to wonder if these kinds of posts are ruling class propaganda beside you could make a good case that the United States doesn’t exist anymore…
Could be?
A CNN investigation has found that while Jared Kushner acted as a key Middle East peace negotiator, his private equity firm held the largest stake in an Israeli company backing businesses tied to Israel's military campaign in Gaza, including its largest arms manufacturer. cnn.it/4y0xe5x
Has anyone engaged with his argument in good faith on the merits?
Wallace Shawn’s resurfaced rant about Israel shows just how normalized anti-Semitism has become, @jkirchick argues: theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0…
This person supposedly opposed the president.
“Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said the attempted attack ‘was thwarted solely thanks to the heroism of several Israeli passengers who stormed the cockpit, subdued the terrorist, and—with their own hands—restored control of the aircraft to an additional flight crew present on board.’”
“A reserve flydubai crew that had been on board took control of the plane and landed it safely at Tabuk Airport (TUU), a flydubai spokesperson said.”
Shouldn’t we be EXTREMELY skeptical given how the world works and how wars start and who is talking to whom?
BREAKING: Axios is reporting that Benjamin Netanyahu is set to speak to President Trump today after the attempted plane hijacking.
It is ENTIRELY possible, perhaps even likely, that this was a terrorism incident…
But I think one would be foolish to look at the RAF Fairford incident and this plane hijacking attempt and NOT scrutinize the possibility of more nefarious factors.
With the Israeli elections around the corner, the disastrous Iran War now into its seventh month, and the American midterms coming soon…
Maybe it’s just a coincidence… Maybe.
I don’t care about your fake outrage over this post. It is ABSOLUTELY legitimate to look at these events with scrutiny given the surrounding context.
I really don’t understand this.

Who is astroturfing these “communists”? Not only is this account that, it’s ignorant a lot how the world works, who funds third parties, and who deploys them.
One thing I learned about liberals when I was younger, is that they HATE democracy! If you think I’m lying, ask them how they feel about 3rd parties/candidates.
Shit some of them even voted for Trump over @DrJillStein..
This person reasonably tried to chart a middle path but totally overlooks the carceral nature of the program and the gangster organization that will enforce it, the NYPD.
