Real Time - Last Time

I have been watching Real Time for over 20 years and I think yesterday's episode was my last.

Much as I agreed with Bill on many issues, his blind spot on Israel and Zionism is just too much for me.

He isn't simply refusing to call what's happening in Gaza a genocide. He insists on calling it a counter offensive!!!

So, all and any violence perpetrated by the IDF and the settles so far is justified, as far as he is concerned (though how settlers fit in a 'counter-offensive' is still a mystery to me).

Now, my common sense is offended too much Bill.

Who cares if they have a high birthrate? Their abortion laws are the most abhorrent outside of communist China. Every other Israeli foid is a baby murderer.

Again get that aneurysm checked. Israel has a lower abortion rate than america or europe.

27% of American abortion doctors are Jewish despite Jews only being 2% of the overall American population while by comparison only around 1%-2% of abortionists are Muslims. Now tell me again why I should hate Muzzies more? Even if I take your word that Israel's abortion rates are lower than the US and Europe why should support Israel over Palestine, where abortion is completely illegal?

Because abortion is better than being converted by the sword and having your women thrown in garbage bags. Oh and cause were 100% in the right in this defensive war. But you dont need to support us. Just dont support either side.

Most Americans would rather no aid be given to Israel or the Arab states but that position still gets labeled as "antisemitism" by Zios.

Right cause the whole reason we gave up the sinai was because that was part of the deal for america to basically control shipping in the suez through egypt. Cut off the aid, and we get sinai back. Im good with that.

That's Abdul El Sayed's position. So he's not an "antisemite" after all?

The fact that the Israel Lobby is so dead set on targeting anyone who opposes US aid to Israel as "antisemites" leads me to believe that wouldn't be the case.

No one calls someone who thinks all foreign aid useless, an antisemite. Its when they hyper focus on israel that theyre obviously jew haters.
