  5. Zionism in not Judaism just like ISIS is not Islam. Criticizing the apartheid and genocidal regime of Israel is not antisemitic just like criticizing the barbaric and terrorist regime of Saudi Arabia is not Islamophobia.

  8. This is a propaganda against IRAN: Inciting deadly riot is not protest. Killing unarmed police officers is not protest. Burning hospitals/buses/schools is not protest. There's a difference between protest & violence. They aren't protestors. They're mobs/thugs/criminals! The media is have you hating the people who are being oppressed & loving the people who are doing the oppressing!

  12. You may think that the killing of Sonya Massey in the US isn’t relevant to the killing of Palestinians in Gaza, but they’re linked by a culture of violence that starts at the top. A state that willfully supports the mass slaughter of a people, doesn’t care about killing its own.

USA has no credibility!

  19. Israel believed it could launch a strike against Iran with suffer no consequences. It no longer does. "It was deterrence, it means that in the future, if Israel plans to take action against Iran, it will have to consider the consequences of its actions knowing that Iran has the capacity to reach any place, hit any target in a region in Israel.

The EU lectures other countries on the rule of law/Human rights but provides unconditional support to the apartheid regime of Israel/sell arms to the barbaric regime of Saudi Occupied Arabia, committed war crimes in Iraq/Syria/Libya/Afghanistan, use brutality against their own people if they protest, & colonialism/theft of other nations!

  32. Correction-The world is facing ongoing threats from US and its endless wars, sanctions, economic warfare, plotting coups to undermine sovereign nations, supporting dictatorial & apartheid regimes. US is an authoritarian regime which reaches beyond its borders to commit terrorism and to violate the international laws including inside Iran. Assassinating General Soleimani and Iranian nuclear scientists are specially appalling examples of the US regime perpetrating egregious acts of transnational violence and violations of Iranian/Iraqi laws & Iran's/Iraq's national sovereignty! US is a country that commits war crimes, then jails whistleblowers. US knows it won’t face any consequences for its crimes! Your hypocrisy is shameful!

  49. US politicians are falling apart because a younger generation of Americans don’t watch heavily-bias media, won’t blindly support Israel, actually listen to what historians & experts say on the issue, and believe that Palestinians are also human beings. That’s their real problem.

  50. We must condemn the blatant hypocrisy of those who daily remain SILENT over the U.S. funded murder, displacement, mass incarceration, brutalization, and dehumanization of Palestinians by Israel’s occupational military forces, yet vociferously express OUTRAGE over reports of Hamas attacks against Israel. Resistance to oppression is not terrorism.
