    The course was designed and taught by Nathan Thrall, a Jewish American writer and researcher who lives in Jerusalem.

    “This class is wrong in its inception, and we are ethically compelled to point out why: Nathan Thrall is heavily financed by the government by Qatar, a leading funder of Hamas and other officially designated terrorist groups,” he said.

    They’re really trying to pull that claim on an actual Jewish person, huh?

    “Must we accept as coincidence Mr Soros finances Mr Thrall and Bard?” Drimer added. “I am compelled to connect the dots.”

    Oh, there we are. Qanon conspiracies.

      This actually happened before the current conflict, it’s a good read, it tell one small part of a story on how Israel have a tight grip toward any conversation toward the state.

        I know, but apartheid in Israel did not just start now. It’s been going on since forever. They can deny all they want, but they keep telling on themselves. Mostly unintentional of course, but admitting regardless.

          It’s been going on since forever.

          Not really tho, as Israel as a nation didn’t exist until 1948 … a mere 75 years ago. And in the beginning it was not powerful, nor able to withstand incursions from surrounding nations who didn’t want Israel to exist.

          Since then it has garnered the unwaivering support of the most powerful nation on earth and has become like the brutal spoiled child, demanding everything and doing whatever it must to get it.

            Of course, yes. But for most people on here ~75 yrs = forever. It was well before most of us were born. But you’re right, it started mostly in 1948.
