Didn’t think I could even smile today. Yet found myself cracking up So tickled you had Amanda on. Enlightening interview, and great chemistry b/w y’all.✊☮️❤️🇵🇸
This was a revelation on how little educated people can know on a topic, but that lifelong learners may eventually go on to teach. Your podcasts are always an informative space.
Im not muslim, but i have seen a passage from the hadith come up a few times and wanted to share it. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or he is an oppressed one. People asked, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! It is all right to help him if he is oppressed, but how should we help him if he is an oppressor?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "By preventing him from oppressing others."
I cannot thank you here at this so valued space! Giving Amanda the heart felt embrace. When so many cowards misrepresent her it hurts. Amanda lives for truth. The integrity and love she extends with every word (“unlikable” cuz ur a whimp or not) is selflessly motivated to simply save lives. She needs the world to understand its truths. The happiness I feel wreckedddd meeeee ❤❤❤❤ River to the sea Palestine has set us all free
I am an American Jew who was indoctrinated in Hebrew School by radical Israelis about Israel. I didn't realize how much Israel and Judaism were made to be intertwined. I can still sing the Israeli national anthem in Hebrew. My father-in-law was a big deal in the United Jewish Appeal and made official trips to Israel. When my husband graduated from Harvard, he went to Israel to travel abroad. I was given the opportunity for a free trip to Israel if I went to Hebrew High School, And I was the only one of my friends who stayed home and didn't go to Hebrew High School because I hated Hebrew school. I didn't hate Judaism or my heritage which is Ashkenazi Eastern European Jewish, those peasants Balfour and his crew didn't want coming to England. In any case, my son wrote a paper about the Palestinian Israeli conflict in college and because he's autistic I went up to Clark University to help him not actually write the paper but to focus. My eyes were opened wide. And it was a hell of a paper. In addition, he joined a pro-palestinian group on campus as a Jew, and helped to get Norman Finkelstein to come and speak, which was protested by Zionists on campus, but Norman did come to speak. I did not totally feel it in my bones what was going on in Palestine until October 7th and afterwards. It totally opened my eyes. I knew all about US warmongering but I never realized how much I was indoctrinated about Israel. It is very liberating but still very upsetting. I feel it is my duty to speak out as an Anti-Zionist Jew because I can do so and counteract all this crap about anti-Semitism that really isn't anti-Semitism. It's anti-zionism. I applaud Amanda and your podcast for doing what you do. Thank you.
Your conversation makes me want to bring in the issue of Tibet. Both Palestinians and Tibetans believe there will someday be justice. I am not personally fortunate enough to be capable of such faith. One people clings to nonviolence; the other people asserts the right of violent resistance. Can we be sure that either of them is right? So many peoples have perished from the earth already.
Honest question: Isn’t a degree from Columbia-from wherever, a PhD, participating in the colonialist project? Isn’t that their framework for what is valid knowing? I don’t know. The idea just occurred to me. Doesn’t that system invalidate other ways of knowing including direct experience and/or even, let’s say, a community college degree or personal study? I’m sure someone has sussed out this question already.
it's pretty fascinating watching actors engage in activism. i'm not complaining but i'm also not a spring chicken and i have seen more than a few showings of this specific show. "ceasire now! aid to gaza now!" "palestinian lives matter!" all things that have been screamed and shouted by the most famous human rights activist [liberals] for decades. and what's real wild is every time this cycle begins, ALL the liberals behave as if this problem w/ israel just began? real f*cking wild to watch this over and over again from the people in your country that historically and rhetorically would NEVER capitulate to something so viciously evil...and yet, they do, and are. and they are doing it harder than they ever have before, thanks to orange man BAD. and yea, duh. orange man bad. and all the other people in his political circle are bad too, which includes ALL of the most 'powerful' dems. western libs create more communists and fascists than either political ideology could ever manage to create on their own and that's a fact you can take to the bank BUT i do not suggest it for obvious reasons. #collapse
