The most antisemitic and bigoted Administration in modern history is using Jews as a battering ram to dismantle free speech, weaken college universities, and crush pro-Palestinian activism.
The irony is that their actions will cause more antisemitism. What is so ridiculous is that the far right/white supremacists/Christofascists have always been antisemitic! They are pro-Israel because they believe when they get rid of all but Christians, the rapture will occur there. I wish they’d have their damn rapture so the rest of us can have peace.
Excellent program as usual. Thank you. It is obvious that the trump fascists are using Jews and antisemitism as a smoke screen to cover their vicious agenda to divide us. Do not be fooled! I agree with everything you discussed here. We must stand united with all our Jewish and Muslim/arab brothers and sisters against this evil propaganda! Netanyahu and his cronies are enemies of the Jewish people as they perpetrate genocide on the Palestinian people creating hatred against the Jewish people.
Don’t we already have reason to believe that Netanyahu purposely ignored Egyptian intelligence reports on a possible terrorist attack leading up to October 7, 2023? He probably figured that starting a war would be the only thing to save him given that he had already been unpopular with Israelis themselves. Oh, the irony.
Here we go, Columbia just expels Grant Miner, a JEWISH grad student, for being antisemitic. That's where equating pro Palestinian with Pro Hamas gets you. WHY is being against an oppressive government the same as being against the religion of the people? Why aren't those against Russia in Ukraine being accused of prejudice against the Orthodox church? Why isn't criticism of Orban the same as being anti Catholic or anti Calvinist?
That comparison you made to people in Ukraine “being accused of prejudice against the Orthodox Church” is interesting because as it turns out, that is literally a talking point found in Russian propaganda aimed at Christians. I’ve even had an American Russia-sympathetic Orthobro type I’ve argued with elsewhere online tell me that he supports Russia in part because he thinks that “his church” is under attack by the Ukrainian government.
Using the Alien Enemies Act against these students softens the ground - normalizes - arresting anybody for anything. Is this China?
Why is being against war antisemitic? I think the military industrial complex supports anything that will get countries to buy weapons and ammunition to blow each other up. The Israeli/Palestinian crisis is very convenient. And by calling one or the other "bad people" they can get the fight to self perpetuate and further justify the manufacture of more weapons.
And yes, Trump takes advantage of it to advance his own agenda. He doesn't care whether you're Jewish, Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, Hindi. He's just using this as a platform to crush democratic norms. He want power and control and it's chilling to hear him talk about arresting "very bad people" and making protest and news agencies "illegal."
How to have these conversations? Remind each other that we're being used by some very rich people who love power and money and control.
We're being used, people. The common enemies here are Trump, Musk and the Republican Party.
I am really pissed off about what is happening. I can't even imagine how this must affect you. I admire your courage.
I am only now realizing how naive I have been. I thought that the election of Obama put us in a post racial peace. Boy, was I wrong. Trump gave permission to a very large part of our countrymen to display their hatred of anyone who isn't a white christian.(Fake Christian). They are crawling out of the woodwork. They hate blacks, brown people, muslims and Jews.
Trump's support for Isreal's extermination of Palestinians is appalling. He now uses the term Palestinian as a pejorative.
We are in a period of existential threat. Frankly, I don't know if we will make it out as a democracy. If we do, I hope we come out with realization that we are stronger when we celebrate our diversity.
My Bend the Arc group (Jewish Action, MD) is just getting involved in the misuse of antisemitism by the right against Palestinians. A bunch of us went to a webinar about Project Esther (part of Project 2025).
WA, they will use anything to achieve their real goals. But the groups working with the Felon will regret it. He WILL double cross them. Musk has shown his colors. The evil Felon truly believes in the same, only more! He wishes to one day to salute openly, just like his hero, Adolf! But every day, more is revealed. No matter where you come from, good people must unite to fight these evil bastards!
In this discussion you both equate Jewish with Arab. They are not equivalent. When Americans talk about Jews, they are talking about Ashkenazi. They are not talking about ethnicity. And they are not talking about religion. They are not even talking about culture. But "Arab", for Americans, includes ethnicity, religion and culture. Of course to Arab-Americans, this is ridiculous.
More ridiculous of all to me, neither Jewish nor Arab but most definitely Middle Eastern and belonging to the group that experienced the most egregious violence under the Alien Act (the Japanese-Americans), most Ashkenazi are not Semites. If they knew their own backgrounds, they would not call themselves Semites. Most Arabs are Semites, though not all of them. Some of them have English as their mother tongue. I don't even consider Israeli Jews to be Semitic since they speak a made-up language that they call Hebrew but which isn't. Only the Mizrahi Jews are Semites.
Interestingly, instead of calling the discrimination that Arabs experience "anti-Semitism", which it most definitely is, they call it "Islamophobia", which it most definitely is not. There are tons of Arabs in this world (and Arab-Americans) who are not Muslim. There are even Anglo-Americans who profess to Islam. They don't experience "Islamophobia" because they are not Arab.
Another point I find extremely disturbing, and I have yet to hear any Jews acknowledge how disturbing this is to people who come from the M.E., whatever their citizenship, ethnicity, religion, etc., is how your guest equates the death of two Israeli-Jewish children (I don't even know how they died--I have never seen an explanation of this and usually "privacy" is used as the reason for this, in which case do NOT bring them up in political discussions because that's so lop-sided it ain't funny (but is very typical of discussions of this sort)--with "the suffering of the Palestinian people". That kind of looks like an extreme version of the graph Alison Weir uses to show how many Palestinians have died since 2000 compared to how many Israelis have died. Two children living on stolen land compared to--in my estimation--at least half a million. That's how important Jewish lives and emotional pain are compared to Palestinian lives and emotional pain? And let's talk about the Holocaust. How many Palestinians have died a violent death since the Holocaust compared to how many Israeli Jews have died a violent death in the same span? There is no comparison. I'm not even including Arab deaths pre-dating the Holocaust at the hands of Zionist settlers. I'm not discounting your pain and grief and loss. But I am pointing out how you are engaging in hasbara. Three-quarters of the Israeli Jews who died on October 7, 2023 died at the hands of other Israelis. You do not mention this either. I'm not saying anything original. You've been told this before. But you don't change your narration to reflect that you heard these words.
I was going to send my one remaining Ashkenazi friend (lost the rest due to political differences on 9/11 and the Gulf War--they cannot withstand political differences--if that were true of me I would have NO friends because I have a complex background and NO ONE I've met in the last 50 years agrees with me on all of it or even most of it)--I wanted to send her Peter Beinart's new book. But, one, she doesn't respond to my emails anymore. And, two, he won't admit what Israel has committed in Gaza in the last year is a genocide. He STILL equivocates. Does every last Palestinian have to be decomposed before it's a genocide? Will THAT be enough?
So I don't want to give him any of my money.
How can you expect to have a serious, in-depth, genuine discussion on these issues if you are unwilling to come half-way?
Our local university teaches WWII history as though it were ONLY about the Holocaust. Give me a fucking break. I'm sure they are afraid to teach the real, complicated, horrific history and the real reason for it happening, which had little to do with Jews.
So let's demonize Russia while we're at it. Ask a blind mole the way to town and this is what you get.
American Jews are taught from the earliest infancy two things: one, their feelings matter more than non-Jews' feelings, and two, their survival depends on negating other people's experiences and identity. EVERYONE is out to get you. Sorry to be the one to tell you this but you just are not that important. Most people are focusing on surviving themselves.
Meanwhile, Jews in America are doing fine. But their country/countries is/are planning on taking over THE WHOLE MIDDLE EAST. That's the plan. And we're talking about spoiled university students' hurt feelings. Go start a support group. But the rest of us need to focus on preventing the destruction of the entire Middle East. Pardon me while I try and lift my jaw off my chest.
The dispossession of Japanese-Canadians and Japanese-Americans occurred years before the Naqba. I don't think that was coincidental. We weren't violent. We didn't resist. Some of us managed to buy back our own land from the very people who stole it. Most did not. We do rise up on occasion to prevent other people (mostly Arabs and Iranians) from being put into concentration camps as well. To date, we have been successful. Many groups of people in this country have been traumatized repeatedly. But only one group has turned it into a religion and weaponized it against the rest of their country. In fact, that group may easily destroy this country and "democracy" (such that it is) with that weapon. If you want to call that statement "anti-Semitism", knock yourself out. But this is what I have been warning for 70 years. Support of Israel could very easily result be the destruction of the US. 70 years I've been warning about this. If this hurts your feelings, tough. It's true. Deal with it before it is too late.
Until you can admit that Arabs are Semites and have experienced MUCH MORE anti-Semitism than Ashkenazis in the U.S. or in Europe, I don't want to hear your crocodile tears. Just listen to yourself. It is as unbelievable to me now as it was 70 years ago when I first heard these arguments. From my non-Jewish, non-Muslim, non-Arab perspective, nothing has changed. I'm sorry if I hurt your FEELINGS, but a shitload of Middle Easterners are DEAD. Not two. And not even 1200. Many MILLIONS HAVE DIED VIOLENT DEATHS. Way more than died in the so-called Holocaust, if you are counting. And the US and Israel plan on taking over the entire Middle East and killing everyone in it, if necessary.
If you work with the ADL, you are not serious about working with Arab-Americans. That's ridiculous.
What Russia is doing is not genocide, as far as I know. "Genocide" refers to a very specific legal condition. What has happened with Russia is in 1990 the U.S. made an "iron-clad" promise to the leader of the USSR that if they allowed a reunification of East and West Germany, the U.S. would never allow any country that bordered Russia to join Nato. Because of this Gorbachev agreed to the end of the USSR. Since then three or four countries adjacent to Russia have been included in Nato. And the CIA "began" (I don't know when it actually began since they do not act in the open and have no audit of operations or money) a coup in 2014, overthrowing the elected President of Ukraine, and funding and even manning the rioting at that time in Ukraine. This included working WITH the neo-Nazis of Ukraine. The CIA put Zelensky into power and since then he has been doing what they and MI6 have told him to do. This is all verifiable, if you choose to know the truth. Russia was pretty much forced to defend the integrity of its border and the areas adjacent to it within missile-firing range. They did not choose this war. The U.S. keeps giving Zelensky weapons, intelligence, and military people on the ground, as well as funding mercenary forces, to keep the fight going in an attempt to bring down the Russian state because they want to take over that country and its minerals, oil, etc. Europe is suffering greatly because the US bombed the pipeline that was Europe's primary source of energy.
I don't care if you personally believe Palestine has been genocided. You sound like a member of a certain pretend country's propaganda machine. The truth is Ukraine/US has lost, as has Israel. Netanyahu is going to bomb the remaining hostages to death and blame their deaths on Hamas. The hostages' families know this, as do most thinking people. Netanyahu doesn't seem to care about Israel; he only cares about himself. The demonization of Russia has been going on a very long time. Ask yourself why the US would do this with so little evidence? In the process, the US has destroyed Europe. Eventually the US will fail. Trump appears to be trying to bring that end as soon as possible so the bro-billionaires can buy up stocks that have lost most of their value as ordinary Americans sell what they still own after the downturn during Obama's era (which he inherited from Baby Bush) sell their stocks to survive this economic debacle. This is as obvious as the (I assume you have one) nose on your face.
If the CIA were dismantled, there would be much less violence in this world. They were also behind the Arab Spring.
If Russia’s war isn’t genocidal, then why has the Russian military targeted so many civilians? And why has Vladimir Putin denied Ukrainian national identity as pretext for invading when Ukrainians don’t feel like a part of Russia? Why am I supposed to believe that one side is committing genocide but the other isn’t even when they talk and act similarly to each other? If anything you’re the one expecting me to believe propaganda here.
I suggest you read some Russian history. I don't have the time to educate you today. And while you're at it, I suggest you read some history about how Israel came to be. You need to start back around 1880 in Britain. And while you are at it, I recommend you follow Alon Mizrahi. Here's the link to his substack. https://alonmizrahi.substack.com/
There are many sources of information online if you are geuinely interested. If you just want to troll me, forget it. I'm immune.
“I suggest you read some Russian history” Oh, like when Stalin’s policies created a massive famine in Ukraine and people there had to resort to cannibalism to survive? Yeah. If anything, you should be reading about Ukrainian history. And no, I’m not “trolling” by pointing out your own double standards here.
This is horrible what the United States is undergoing politically right now. What makes it even worse is just waiting for when this way of thought funnels into everyday interactions. Because it’s a matter of time, period! Human decency and empathy is getting eroded from the American community, please keep the the conversation going. Very much needed!
How did a conversation about deporting pro-Palestinian Palestinians turn into the dangers Jewish Americans face? This drives me nuts. Come on. It's not all about Jews.
Hey, Nosey, it’s not all about Jews. Maybe it is to people like (?you and) Trump. Did you hear what the Trump Schmuck said about Chuck Schumer. Easy target for a Nazi turd.
Well, to hear them tell it it is mostly about Jewish-Americans feeling emotional pain. That's why we have to shut down freedom of expression and kick Arabs out of the country. I don't pay attention to Schumer. He lost me years ago. And I only listen to Trump for laughs. I'm not aware of anybody's feces acting on its own volition. I'm not Maga, if that's what you are trying to infer. The fact is that Arabs and Arab-Americans face much more anti-Semitism than any number of Jews. And most Americans think nothing of it.
The irony is that their actions will cause more antisemitism. What is so ridiculous is that the far right/white supremacists/Christofascists have always been antisemitic! They are pro-Israel because they believe when they get rid of all but Christians, the rapture will occur there. I wish they’d have their damn rapture so the rest of us can have peace.
yup, the far right christian nationalists are the base of both trump and Netanyahu.

will we be able to watch this discussion later (not live). this is such an important discussion.
