Fyi, I posted your comment on Facebook:

"Don't Spread hate when you don't have anything better to say"

The following exchange between Sydorov (who, I am assuming from his name, is a Russian zionist or a Russian zionist Jew in Israel) with "A Curious Mind", an account belonging to someone called Hatim (who, I am assuming from his name is an Arab) reflects the how pro-Palestinian activists are countering the "zionist narrative" hasbara that continues to blanket all manner of media, even TED Talks, today. The exchange is in the comments of my blog post titled:

"The US military solemnly swears to support and defend the Constitution of the apartheid Jewish state: Your morality is challenged, your ethics on fire. All you can say, in bad faith, is Hamas, Hamas, Hamas…"

Sydorov (https://medium.com/@sydorov)

Not a word to condemn hamas mass murder of Jewish people, and hamas declared goal of murder of all Jews.

A Curious Mind (https://medium.com/@hatim.kagalwala_13401)

With that logic, how many Jews are willing to accept that Nakba did happen and condemn it? Why does the Israel state machinery work so hard to keep Nakba out of the history books taught at Israeli schools? How many Jews condemned the US-Israeli attack in 2008 that was planned at a time when schools are dispersed and led to 200 deaths? How conveniently 2 weeks after the attack Israel denied any kind of aid on a Saturday saying that is the holy day of Sabbath? How many Jews have come out and condemned Netanyahu for his statements on wiping out Arabs completely, the video is easily searchable on Youtube for reference. I can keep going but it might be a lot for you to process. Don’t spread hate when you don’t have anything better to say.
