Nikki Haley contrasts herself with frontrunner Donald Trump in the 2024 Republican primary contest by claiming to be a realist, especially on foreign policy. But her own candidacy is based on a series of fantasies.
Linguistic Ethnic Cleansing
•
Supporters of Israel claim that, before the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, there was never a nation called Palestine or people called Palestinians. While the second statement is untrue, one wonders, even if this were true, how would that justify the colonial takeover and displacement of the people who lived there before?
What About the Other 434?
•
The House of Representatives voted to expel George Santos, Republican of New York, following a report by the Ethics Committee that found he had committed crimes. Many of the Congressmen who voted in favor were little better than he was.
Some Help with Our Ethnic Cleansing, Please
•
One of the more tone-deaf talking points of Israel and its supporters is to accuse neighboring Arab states of being cruel to the Palestinians because they refuse to accept them as refugees. Setting aside the fact that countries like Egypt and Jordan already have millions of Palestinian exiles from previous wars, Israel is tacitly admitting that they are trying to impose ethnic cleansing against Palestinians. Like Germany before World War II, which demanded that other countries accept Jews, Israel wants to turn Arab states into collaborators.
Hamas to Israel: Thank You, We’ll Have Another
•
Israel says it wants to eliminate Hamas specifically, and radical Islamism generally, in Gaza. Ironically, its war against the Gaza Strip, in which the vast majority of victims are innocent civilians, will only serve to recruit a bigger generation of angry Palestinians to the anti-occupation resistance.
Actually, That Was Me
•
US media outlets say Joe Biden had a heroic “secret” role in negotiating the four-day ceasefire between Hamas and Israel. Actually, much of the work was done not by the United States or by Biden personally, but by Qatar.
Both Sides Have Blood on Their Hands…Sorta
•
“Very serious people” claim that the Israelis and Palestinians are equally cuplable in the Middle East conflict. Which is true unless you actually think about it.
If You Talk about Israel’s Hostages, You’re an Antisemite
•
The ceasefire between Israel and Hamas related to the hostage exchange reveals the Israeli secret of “administrative detention,” in which thousands of innocent men, women and children are tortured and jailed in Israel, simply for the crime of being Palestinian.
Unforced Error in the Granite State
•
The Biden campaign had what they thought would be a clever solution to their fear that the president would lose the New Hampshire primary. They decertified NH and made South Carolina first. Then Dean Phillips challenged Biden in NH. Faced with the prospect that Biden will lose the first primary (even if it’s unofficial), Biden has launched a write-in campaign for the race from which he asked to be removed from the ballot.
Who Are These Jew-Hating Maniacs?
•
If you were determined to destroy Israel’s international reputation and influence, and encourage anti-Semitism, you couldn’t possibly be more effective than the current Israeli government of Benjamin Netanyahu and its war against Hamas in Gaza.
