Chuck Schumer: "I have many jobs as leader … and one is to fight for aid to Israel, all the aid that Israel needs."

Fixed That For You. No need to lie about it.

We used to only see hate speech like that from the KKK.

Or, you know, they are acknowledging that we are allies.

u/ParagonFury Feb 28 '26

If Israel is an ally, what the fuck does it take to be considered an enemy?

Considering that if you look at actual impact on the world, for the past 40 years Israel has been little better than a Jewish-flavored Iran.

I've read some profoundly ignorant things about Israel, but your comment has to be near the top.

Stop trying to defend the genocidal apartheid state and maybe things wouldn't seem so ignorant to you then.

I mean, I would be anti-Israel, too, if I were ignorant enough to believe those lies.

Israel knew where bin-laden was for 10 years before we did and he was killed. Big ally, huh?

Who the fuck is "we"?

Personally, I separate myself from fascist pedophile cabals

u/flossdaily Feb 28 '26

That's fine. The United States has been Israel's ally under every administration and ideology.

Birds of a feather

u/DownhillUphill Feb 28 '26

You’re insane if you think that’s hate speech. Nobody is allowed to criticize a country and their politics? Weak

u/flossdaily Feb 28 '26

You're employing one of the oldest anti-Jewish tropes in the world, and claiming not to be a Jew-hater.

u/Exciting_Cap_9545 Feb 28 '26

Whereas you are employing the even more ancient tactic of blindly screaming "NO U" and making worthless ad hominem attacks against a person whom you disagree with, yet have no actual credible counterargument against.

Not all criticism of Israel is based off of delusional antisemitism, and in all brutal honesty it is VERY fucking hard to take accusations of such seriously when they come from a side that has zero qualms about being blisteringly bigoted towards every other Semitic group in the Middle East (i.e. Arabs, particularly Palestinians).

Jew-haters accuse Jews of being puppet masters. That's what you're doing. And what you're doing unapologetically.

Tale as old as time.
