Re: Marjorie Taylor Greene Is Now The First GOP Congress Member To Call Whats Happening In Gaza A "Genocide"

Donna,

Your claim that Zionism preaches hatred of non-Jews is utter nonsense. The truth is that Israel has always desired to live in peace with the Arabs, but it was the Arabs who refused to live in peace with Israel. Many Arab leaders, including current Palestinian leaders, devoted their entire lives to trying to destroy the Jewish state and/or the Jewish people. But Israel is determined to exist. The historic restoration of the ancient Jewish nation in the land of its birth, an event Jews aspired to for nearly 2 millennia, has finally been achieved, and Israel will do whatever it takes to preserve that achievement. Anyone who tries to destroy the Jewish state will likely pay a heavy price, as many of Israels enemies have found out the hard way.

You focus on the suffering of the Palestinians, but say nothing about the Palestinians own actions that brought that suffering upon themselves. Its like studying World War II by only looking at the allied bombings of Germany, without regard to what the Germans did to cause those bombings.

But if you believe that the ancient Jewish nation has no right to be restored in the land of its birth, that Jews have no right of self-determination in their historic homeland, and that Jewish history and historical aspirations mean nothing, please say so so everyone can know exactly where you stand.

Regards,
Martin Wasserman

Your ears, mind and heart are totally closed, you have no compassion for any other people in the world, just Jews. However Judaism does not preach hatred of non-Jews, Zionism preaches that, and VERY sadly Jews like you have swallowed the racist kool-aid. You disgust me beyond words. Even BTselem, an Israeli Human Rights organization, has acknowledged that Israel is committing genocide. Hundreds of Palestinians have died from famine. Israel is blocking all the aid from entering. I lived in Gaza for 4 months in 2008 and already then, because of the Blockade on Gaza there was already a problem of malnourished children! The Israeli govt then acknowledged that they were putting the Palestinians on a diet, letting just enough food in so the Palestinians wouldnt die of hunger. At the same time the Israeli soldiers would come in through into Gaza through gates in the Apartheid Wall driving big bulldozers and destroy the crops, destroy irrigation pipes, and also sit in their towers and drive in jeeps and shoot at Palestian farmers trying to plant crops. Denying Palestinians their human Right to feed themselves and have a livelihood. I was there and witnessed it.
