Miko is a hero! He should be the a leader in Palestine. A very kind man.

Matt and Daniel need to be at the peoples conference for Palestine next year I pray that this time next year Palestine will be free, but if it is not, I hope you’re there

Okay so this week's Torah portion is Ki Teitzei, which contains the verse that BBNetanyahooo invokes to justify "I$rael’s" gen0cidal actions and various war crimes + crimes against humanity (Deut25:17-"Remember what the Amalek did to you on your journey, after you left Eypt-"), and Amalek is considered a "unique evil," because they go for the most vulnerable. Again with the EVERY ACCUSATION IS A CONFESSION. But further, that chapter ends with the commandments to both remember AND blot out the memory of Amalek- which if this happens, Gd will fight Amalek for the Israelites. Amalek are ALSO descendants of Abraham tho- so perhaps Amalek is not a people, but the inclination in each of us (what Naomi Klein points out is the doppelgänger!) to do harms to others that have been perpetrated against us. We must remember to "know our place," - and it is NOT our place as humans to destroy and completely blot out entire peoples. We remember to “forget about it”- “it” being possessing annihilatory powers. Only Gd has the ultimate power to create and destroy. Point being: Zi0ni$m is a fucking mockery, and it is NOT Judaism.

"Generals gathered in their masses Just like witches at black masses" "I rode a tank, held a general's rank When the blitzkrieg raged And the bodies stank" ❤️🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

I went to Bil’in and protested with Palestine Summer Encounter/Holy Land Trust when I was 19 in 2010, and I was so interested to hear Miko talk about the history of the protests there. Great episode!!

That one song in the pirates of Penzance, ‘I am the very model of a modern major general’

I hope you guys decide to release this episode for free in the near future. It is way too important to live behind a paywall! Thanks for the discussion. Free Palestine

“Am I wrong? …… No” That was a deeply awkward silence

Ireland boycotting Eurovision next year if Israel participate and The Netherlands following suit. Looks like a few other countries are considering it.
