My ex's son used to write their scripts. Not only are they fake role-playing, but they are also stuntman with a company that doesn't provide proper protection for them. Stuntman have much better protections in the union and in the NFL.

The Khazar myth is a 19th-century trope. It's bullshit

Judaism is the only major religion that does not proselytize. You clearly know nothing about the subject.
You aren't familiar with what indigeneity is. Are you? Where are the holy sites in Judaism? The Temple, the ancients, Semitic languages

Colonialism actually has a definition. Neither Liberia nor Israel are examples of it. There was no country exerting its power over others, just people going home. African Amer's didn't know their tribes, and were intermixed, and so were the Jews. Once there, there was no colonial nation to return to

In 1896, Palestine was the first choice because it was the homeland of the Jews, he was willing to accept what the colonialists would perhaps support, but, he changed his mind just a few years later because popular opinion was to go home, where indigenous lands of the Jewish people was located.

Why is this labeled intolerance by bluesky? He's not intolerant, he's pointing out the hypocrisy.

Mate is not Israeli, and Sands is a far left nutcase. Their opinions are not those of Israelis. If what you want is peace, those are not the writers to understand because Israelis as a whole disagree. So, it's like you're negotiating with yourself. Peace comes when you negotiate from a reality.

Colonialism is when one country expands to another land to dominate its citizens. The British did that, they had a country and they could return to that country, the Jews didn't
It' a bit like the back to Africa and the state of Liberia.
Or, the Maori diaspora getting their lands back and going home

This is not even a Hertzl quote. He said, "The Jews who wish for a State shall have it. We shall live at last as free men on our own soil, and die peacefully in our own homes.”
— Der Judenstaat (The Jewish State, 1896)

He sought the backing of "imperial" powers, but Zionism was not colonialism.

The Jewish ppl went home to join those in their indigenous homeland. Just any indigenous people have a right to do. Land Back to those it belongs to addresses colonialism even if they had no word for it at the time so called it a common word, colonialism. The Arabs were the colonialists.

But the actions of one member of any group doesn't mean all of the other members are like that. It's sort of, collective punishment.

BREAKING: Hamas militias are attacking and besieging the Dughmash clan in Gaza City. According to the family, Hamas is killing anyone bearing the family name “Dughmash,” and has already executed one person who was unarmed and not involved in the clashes.

Yes, but the question is if there would be political will to do it.

The other question is how would they prove it? The ICC would have to adjudicate the charge of genocide and decide guilty before UK could have a legitimate case to prosecute war crimes.

They want the leverage and protections that it offers them if they need it. Australia doesn't but many countries do.

I wonder how much it costs to start a small circus troupe? I would do seasonal or holiday themes. No animals, just cirque in artistry. Maybe it would be best to start it in Central or South America and book it across the US. Has anyone ever looked into doing something like this?

Israel is currently repelling Jihadists from mass-slaughtering the Druze and Christian minorities in Syria.

If it weren't for Israel, tens of thousands of Christians and Druze would be murdered. You won't see a single media outlet report this.
