This SMS campaign has been going around. Apparently they messaged Sammy Obeid. I don't think they liked me.

"Do you think a country has the right to defend itself against a group that's openly said its goal is to destroy it?"

Yes, I do think Palestine has the right to defend itself from Israel.

After all, Netanyahu said:

In any future arrangement … Israel needs security control over all territory west of the Jordan [...] This collides with the idea of sovereignty [for Palestinians]. What can you do?

I can't believe they're trying to DARVO on a global scale. Free Palestine.

"I'd like to gently shift the focus away from that genocide." Wow. Repugnant cowardice.

Maaaan i bet you're on a list somewhere now. I saw that same text and thought "Nice try Mossad" and blocked it

Given that I've been protesting the US government for almost 40 years, I'm sure it's just the latest

Give yourself some credit man, it's your choice to stand up for what you believe in!

The biggest shock of this to me is that these are real people sometimes… wtf… I never thought it would be a real person & not an automated reply or a bot.

Yeah that's what's bothersome to me like they really want to get you talking?? I even had a person call me and ask the same questions recently. It was during the elections in my state so it could have been somebody running but I'm not sure. I said hello and they literally started asking my opinions on the relationship between the United States and Israel! I responded. I already voted and then hung up... I'm just saying with the United States with its current president and how things are, there could be a list of undesirables....

They can stop killing kids and civilians, and stop torturing people whenever they want. Until then they should consider themselves lucky to be allowed to exist

Please tone your calling out of genocide. It makes Israel look bad.

They are pissed because Mamdani is calling a monster for what it is.

I hope they all choke on a dick.

I spent my whole life being avid supporter of Israel. As kids we had mandatory school trip to Aushwitz. I will never forget those God damn rooms filled with all kinds of shit. I swore that I would always fight nazis and protect minorities to best of my abilities.

Turns out that calls have been coming from inside the house.

Zionists can eat shit.
