When I pass on important messages here on personal behavior to strive for, it comes in threads like this:

Here's the truth about what makes a good human being. I started this thread after the horrific, coordinated attacks by the terrorist group,  Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023.

            Israel and Hezbollah agree to a ceasefire as deadly fighting threatens U.S.-Iran deal

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/israel-and-hezbollah-agree-to-a-ceasefire-as-deadly-fighting-threatens-u-s-iran-agreement

Israel's ramped-up fighting in Lebanon and its rhetoric has threatened to unravel a new round of talks between the U.S. and Iran. Both Washington and Tehran reached an agreement to stop the war on -- quote -- "all fronts, including in Lebanon."

A war of words spilled out across social media earlier today. Israel's hard-line national security minister, himself convicted of terror offenses in Israeli court, wrote -- quote -- "With all due respect to the Americans, the blood of our sons and the security of our citizens are not forfeit. All of Lebanon must burn."

Iran's top diplomat replied, calling the Israeli government a -- quote -- "genocidal death cult" whose -- quote -- "only interest is permanent war."

Israel is a completely rogue country led by a psychopath who used Donald Trump for their war against Iran. The United States should have stopped aid and stopped selling them weapons for their genocides and wars a long time ago. Instead, the morally bankrupt Rs in Congress do things like give Netanyahu 50+ standing ovations for his diabolical genocides.

A standing ovation to genocide

The applause for a leader who has officially killed over 39,000 people since Oct. 7 has gone down in history as a significant stain on humanity for those applauding.

https://www.setav.org/en/a-standing-ovation-to-genocide

The prime minister of a state accused of committing genocide in Gaza was applauded 79 times, 58 of which were standing ovations, by the U.S. Congress.

Israel's massacres, as evidenced by the U.N. General Assembly, the Human Rights Council's decisions and the ICJ ruling, a truly independent and impartial international judiciary, have clearly shown that Israel has violated international law, committed acts contrary to human rights, and engaged in behavior unbecoming of human dignity.

The ICJ prosecutor has requested the arrest of Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Despite all these international legal decisions, Netanyahu's invitation to the U.S. Congress has driven the final nail into the coffin of already dysfunctional international law and institutions. The invitation of a war criminal further proves that the U.S. administration has openly supported the ongoing genocide in Gaza since Oct. 7.

Members of the U.S. Congress who applauded Netanyahu encouraged a genocidal state leader to continue his massacres and promoted the commission of all his war crimes. This support and encouragement are clear acts of legitimizing genocide and the genocidal.

A  genocidal war criminal, psychopath and pathological liar, driven by rage, hate/racism and self serving interests to stay out of prison, now leading a rogue country!

Thanks, Mike!

 For the readers in general FYI, AIPAC members are not all Jews. There is also a large number who are Christians.

Thanks very much, Larry!

That's an excellent point!

And the vast majority of Congress that is bought and paid for by AIPAC and control our spending/laws are also not Jews. It's extremely sad when people react with antisemitism against individual Jews that are good people because of this dynamic.

So the best way to help crush antisemitism is to STOP THIS REALLY BAD DYNAMIC!  We can proclaim how horrible antisemitism is until the cows come home but ignoring the REAL WORLD dynamic causing it will make our proclamations an ineffective way to effectively win the battle against it.

The best way to fight antisemitism is to unite against the most diabolical entity that has caused the greatest increase in my lifetime. 

Bernie Sanders is a Jewish man in the Senate that speaks the objective truth about this:
