I’ve been making my way through The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine, and I’ve never struggled to finish a book this much. Just unbelievably harrowing.

I had a realization that’s really stuck with me. Zionism is explicitly a response to European anti-semitism. No one has committed more pogroms than Europeans. Almost all of Europe gleefully participated in the Holocaust.

And yet to the average Westoid, Arabs are a uniquely anti-Semitic people because of the extremely mildly violent response some have had to ethnic cleansing. Palestinians manage to kill a single Israeli with a rocket every decade or two and it’s “my god, these barbaric people have nothing in them but hate for the Jews.” Europeans commit the GREATEST GENOCIDE IN HISTORY and yet they get to remain wholesome civilized people whomst have never harmed a Jew. Far-Right parties are sweeping into power all across Europe, but noooooo that doesn’t say anything about our glorious Western Civilization.

Maybe if Arabs sweep the globe and rule with an iron fist for a few millennia they can catch up to the Jewish death toll inflicted by Europeans.

    Stalin supported Israel as an opposition to Britain’s finance imperialist control over the region and Europe’s genocide of Jewish people

    barbaric people have nothing in them but hate

    yes-chad there is nothing more terrifying to a liberal than people who actually do violence, instead of a soulless bureaucratic drone who has no agency to do anything but passive social murder and fiddling with weights of grain like that one lame horseman of the apocalypse
