Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Cuban Americans for Cuba statement on #MarcoRubio's "report"
1·17 days agoYes, there are widely different opinions in the Cuban-American community in the US. The encouraging thing is that anti-blockade Cubans are speaking up more now.

World News@lemmy.ml•Israel’s actions are fuelling antisemitism around the world | Letters
11·1 month agoNo, you’re wrong. Antisemitism is a real thing, and a bad one, and Zionist Israel’s genocidal actions fuel it. There is no contradiction in being anti-Zionist and also being against anti-Semitism. It’s not hasbara to say that, it actually strengthens the Palestinian solidarity movement to condemn antisemitism. I wish you could understand that.

Palestine@lemmy.ml•[Video] NATO-backed Zionist threatens school kids making them afraid to enter the school bus
51·1 month agoJust curious - why does every headline have the “NATO-backed” prefix to “Zionist”?

1·2 months agoHe opposes arms to Israel and the genocide in Gaza, and supported Mamdani, who was facing bogus charges of antisemitism. You don’t have to support his politics, but it still reflects movement in the right direction.

World News@lemmy.ml•Lebanese Journalist Amal Khalil Bombed and Left to Die by Israel
2·4 months agoYes, I have been paying attention. This is the most brazen attack on journalists and Red Cross in one single incident. I stand by what I wrote, (even if it’s not really that important).

World News@lemmy.ml•Mehdi Hasan breaks down the ‘right to exist’ argument about #Israel
2·4 months agoThanks for that. I have had paywall issues with Zeteo in the past, so I thought the FB post would work better. I’ll try direct URL next time. 🙂

World News@lemmy.world•Amid Israel's 'forever wars', Palestinians must not abandon the one-state solutionEnglish
2·4 months agoGetting past the sarcasm, what is your solution? I think a democratic, secular Palestine for all is very sensible and fair.

World News@lemmy.ml•‘Israel Has Become Dangerous for Jews Around the World’
11·4 months agoFirst, Temple Israel is a Jewish synagogue, not a Zionist headquarters. Even if 99% of the congregants support Israel, that still wouldn’t change that fact. And guess what? It’s probably significantly less than 99%. And that percentage keeps dropping by the month because of the unrelenting atrocities by Israel.
But terrorist attacks against Jewish institutions (even by someone deranged by grief) don’t help that process at all. Both real antisemitism and fake charges of antisemitism are on the rise. We need to be smart enough to know the difference in order to advance the liberation of Palestine, and humanity in general.
