  1. Who feels it knows it, S Africa, N Ireland and the Palestinians know oppression , death and brutality under a repressive regime. Those who have suffered will not stand by without action to right a wrong.

  2. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
    Passionate ignorance

    As I attended my grandson’s graduation from Harvard, I was amazed. As some of the pious protesters dramatically stormed out of graduation carrying placards reading “from the river to the sea,” I asked one of them the name of the river and the sea. His angry answer, I kid you not, was: “I don’t know. What difference does it make?”

    Remember, these are Harvard graduates, our best and brightest.

    And that, ladies and gentlemen, sums up the problem with today’s world. Passion coupled with ignorance is dangerous. If it wasn’t so sad, it would be comical.

    Few know, or care, that Israel is the only democracy in the region. Though they call it a “Zionist empire,” few know, or care, it is the size of New Jersey. Some empire.

    Few know, or care, there are 57 Muslim majority nations on the planet all ranking far below Israel on human rights scales, but just one sliver-sized Jewish state. Few know, or care, that with a 3,000 year continuous presence, the Jews are the native Americans of Israel.

    Few know or care that since inception Israel has been for a two-state solution, while most Palestinians have rejected Israel. The issue for most is not where to draw Israel’s borders but that it has the audacity to have any borders and that it exists in any form. Few know or care that Hamas is not interested in creating a state, but only in destroying one.

    But why let facts get in the way of a good, woke narrative. As an old hippie who marched for civil rights in the 1960’s, I was both saddened and disgusted by the false parallels comparing today’s protesters to my generation.

  3. Atlas was allowed to think he was free. He could throw the world off his shoulders and leave whenever he wanted. But the only permission He was given was to think about it. (F.KAFKA) R r Western citizens free???

  4. I don't understand why this video was released after nethanyahu's arrest warrant if they had this video why didn't they release it before his arrest warrant

  5. Israel should learn from us Filipinos

    Whenever the Abu Sayyaf takes hostages we never blame nor pressure the government. We unite against terrorism. In the end whether the hosyages survive or not we dont demand the government to resign. Learn from Marawi Siege

  6. Shame on the UN and ICC. Israel is fighting against terrorists and these cronies put the blame on Israel. As a woman, I disgusted how these terrorists treat women.And would like to add: what kind of a woman marches on the streets with these Pro-P protestors?
