Coddling the Oppreesor Never Works

which is evidenced in the Zionist reaction to Macklemore's eloquent and heartfelt speech.

He made sure to stress that his criticism of Israel was not a criticism of Jewish people.

He made sure to include Sudan, Cuba, Congo and the US in his calls for freedom. 

And still he was condemned by Zionists.

You cannot win because their talking points either come from a place of deep rooted indoctrination (Zionism exploits Jewish trauma), disingenuousness, or both. 

Zionist talking points alter according to the situation. If Macklemore hadn't said those things, they would have honed in on that. He did say them and it was ignored or his meaning twisted. They tell us it is antisemitic to conflate Judaism with Zionism, while telling us it is antisemitic to criticise Israel. (Zionism thrives on antisemitism). 

Never let Zionists put you on the defensive by trying to prove you are not antisemitic. You are only giving their nonsense credence and they won't believe you anyway or will pretend not to. Mark Ruffalo made that mistake. 

Even if you succeed in moving them on from that talking point, they will come at you in another way. They want and need you on the defensive. The goal is to wear you out, wear you down, keep the focus on you and not the crimes. 

Remember, no matter how they rewrite history, no matter how shamefully they lie and deny, there is nothing they can say to excuse Zionist crimes against humanity. Be that the actions of Israeli soldiers, the dehumanizing and genocidal language of Israeli officials or the backing of Western powers. Nothing!

Remember, the atrocities caused by Zionism have nothing to do with ethnicity or religion. Nothing! Just humans at their very worst. 

As Trump is the true face of the US, Netanyahu, Smotrich and Ben-Gvir are Israel unmasked. Liberal to far-right Zionists, it all stems from the same fascist core.

It’s hard to believe that Israeli apologists actually believe the things they say. But for those who do, then I kind of feel sorry for them. They have been so heavily indoctrinated they cannot see reality and instead defend the Israeli army, which has murdered over *80,000 human beings, *20,000 of them children as well as countless animals. They have destroyed trees and water sources and scorched the earth. And it continues unchecked!

Israel is the oppressor and occupier, the ethnic cleanser and land thief. They can go on and on about the way the oppressed violently respond to their oppression, but that doesn’t exonerate Israel or flip them from perpetrators into victims.

One day, they will have to accept this, or, at least, pretend they do. Because the free-thinking world rejects Zionism. We reject the way it exploits and debases Judaism. We reject how it lies and manipulates. We reject how it bullies and brutalises. We reject how it bribes and threatens. We reject how it makes excuses for the most heinous, ongoing crimes.

Stop the genocide of Palestinians!

FREE PALESTINE!

FREE THE WORLD!

KEEP THIS IN MIND

Each year approximately 500-700 Palestinian children, some as young as 12 years old, are detained and prosecuted in the Israeli military court system. The most common charge is stone throwing (2025 Defense for Children Palestine).

After committing over 1,000 violations of the ceasefire agreement, Israel has decided to totally collapse the agreement, resuming its killing and destruction spree with the massive bombardment of Gaza, again raining death and destruction on the Palestinian people (dated 19 March 2025 from the Permanent Observer of the State of Palestine to the United Nations addressed to the Secretary-General, the President of the General Assembly and the President of the Security Council).

Most of the Israeli hostages were freed due to peaceful negotiations.

Not armed conflict.

Palestinians were told not to celebrate during the release process of Palestinian hostages under threat of being arrested.

Within a two year time period, 30 Ukrainian children suffered amputations.

Within a two month time period, 1000 Palestinian children suffered amputations.

There are more child amputees in Gaza than anywhere.

The Israeli settlers/soldiers who murdered 13 Americans—aid workers, peace activists, teenagers at checkpoints and a 78-year-old grandfather—have not been held criminally accountable by the Israeli government. The US spent $17.9 billion on military aid to Israel from October 2023 to October 2024. Two months into the so-called ceasefire, Israel has violated it more than 500 times, killing at least 356 Palestinians. In September, 2025, Israel attacked 6 countries in 72 hours.

The question is not, do you condemn Hamas?

The question is, do you condemn the Balfour Declaration?

Arthur Balfour was a British Evangelical (as well as a white supremacist). Evangelicals push Zionism to hasten the second coming of Christ. They believe that when Jesus returns, Jews must convert to Christianity or burn in eternal hellfire. That's genuine antisemitism, yet, the Israeli government works together with the Evangelicals and calls people who oppose ethnic cleansing, apartheid and genocide, antisemitic.
