    I actually said not to watch al-jazeera for information about the Levant. Your response ignored that and stated that you are pro-Jew, in a way that implied that you are a zionist.

      I’m a Zionist and have been for about twenty years. Antisemites have latched on to the term Zionist as a way to publicly be antisemitic without consequences because they know the words they really want to use, like k**e, would get them into trouble.

        Yeah we are pretty anti colonial around here. Zionism is a colonial project that attempts to subsume Jewish culture and identity and is itself also antisemitic in that principle, as it tries to redefine Jewish as something vile to many Jews. At least you are up front about it.

          Well I’m not anti-colonial. I’m white Canadian for God’s sake.

          Israel is the rightful homeland of the Jews. The Palestinians are squatting on Jewish land.
