I felt compelled to amplify this Facebook post by Ben Cremer. This image was created the Gemini based on Ben's text. I’ve been sitting with a heartbreaking theological tragedy. Many people have been unquestionably loyal to the president, never calling him out, defending him at all costs, all until he posts a picture of himself … Continue reading Dear Leader & “Lines”
Zionism
“The most valuable service is one rendered to our fellow humans.”
As seen at a Buddhist temple in northern Thailand. Photo by MAA I asked one of my digital servants this question: What does this message have in common with Islam, Judaism and Christianity? It responded thus: The sign reads: “The most valuable service is one rendered to our fellow humans.” What it shares with Islam, … Continue reading “The most valuable service is one rendered to our fellow humans.”
“I Took a Social Media ‘Break’ for 24 Hours. Here’s What I Missed, in Israel Alone.”
This is a repost of a March 4th Substack post by Einat Temkin, who lives in Mexico but grew up in Israel and served in IDF in the 1990s. What she says about most Israelis is spot on. But first, let's start with some salient and depressing facts: Click on the image to read the … Continue reading “I Took a Social Media ‘Break’ for 24 Hours. Here’s What I Missed, in Israel Alone.”
Humanity is the Only Community That Matters
ChatGPT created this image based on the essay. This line jumped off the screen. It's from a Substack essay entitled A Day of Grief, Rage & Gratitude by Einat Temkin, a Mexican Jewish woman who wrote that, "The last three days, culminating in two concurrent funerals, literally just ended my ties with Judaism itself, forevermore. … Continue reading Humanity is the Only Community That Matters
Don’t Feed the (Zionist) Trolls!
Gemini created this literal image based on the title of this blog post. Here's an example. Check out the original post below, my comment, and the two replies by Howie and Leo. While it's tempting to engage with these hateful, racist Zios, life's short and time is precious. (Methinks Howie should review the definition of … Continue reading Don’t Feed the (Zionist) Trolls!
When Europe’s Abused Became Abusers in Palestine
This is a repost of a Substack essay (The Progressive Jew) by Robert Rosenthal, who describes himself as "a former Zionist, a Jewish progressive, and a family member of Holocaust victims." The following statement applies to me and probably many of you. I know (knew) people who fit this description: "Perhaps you’ve wondered why Zionists … Continue reading When Europe’s Abused Became Abusers in Palestine
Me & My Keffiyeh
This is hands down the best purchase I've ever made. I ordered it online and paid the princely sum of $3.47 USD, including delivery. The keffiyeh ( كُوفِيَّة) is probably the most multi-purpose garment created. It is to Palestinian and other Arab cultures what the conical hat (nón lá) is to Vietnamese. (The latter also has … Continue reading Me & My Keffiyeh
The Legacy of Settler Colonialism: It’s Personal
This image was created by Gemini based on the first paragraph of this post. Every empire, however, tells itself and the world that it is unlike all other empires, that its mission is not to plunder and control but to educate and liberate.-Edward W.

Ending Palestinian Suffering Requires Dismantling the Apartheid System: Miko Peled
We have to come to a point where the conversation changes from this one that accepts the Zionist narrative to the one that rejects it. Zionism is a white supremacist, racist, genocidal ideology that created this apartheid state, and it has to be brought to an end. A great interview with Miko Peled, an anti-Zionist … Continue reading Ending Palestinian Suffering Requires Dismantling the Apartheid System: Miko Peled
How Zionism Lost the Narrative — And Unmasked Itself
This is a repost of a 19 November 2025 Out Loud Substack essay by Ahmed Eldin. Image created by ChatGPT based on the title. Sarah Hurwitz didn’t slip up—she said the quiet part out loud and exposed the Zionist project for exactly what it is. For decades, Zionism thrived in the shadows—on curated images, sanitized history, and a billion-dollar … Continue reading How Zionism Lost the Narrative — And Unmasked Itself
