Sweetie, you said you have nothing to do with Ethiopia. It’s your birthplace. The birthplace of your ancestors. Why would you want to deny that? You literally have ZERO ties to Palestine. None whatsoever. You just migrated there.
@YuvalMimi
@paliiadq
“Ethiopian Jew” suggest you have something to do with Ethiopia. If you aren’t from Ethiopia and have no roots in Ethiopia, don’t call yourself Ethiopian. It’s not hard.
@aziz0nomics
So you think Israel has a right to “defend itself” by destroying innocent people’s homes and lives, and those innocent people don’t have a right to defend themselves? Sit down, you’re an embarrassment to yourself.

By that logic, the Royal family have no link to the UK. They came here from Germany anyway.
Perhaps they can find a country with other people they can rule over. Nigeria, for example.

fan, passed away from COVID-19 this morning. One of the final things he could muster the energy to say was “what’s the score?” We loved going to matches together. His delight at watching 🍒 play top flight football in his lifetime was a joy.
@OwenJones84
Exactly. Why would you feel it necessary to quote this scripture for any reason other than it being a coded message for genocide? The hubris of Israeli politicians in thinking they can circumnavigate the law is astounding.

The belief of a "trickle down economy" - if a homeowner doesn't need to pay their mortgage, a renter won't need to pay the landlord. Will be interesting to see if that works out though...
@knafenator
My mum cries hoping she can, one day, return to her birthplace. And I’m also denied the right to live in the land where my mother, grandparents, great grandparents etc were all born and raised. No access to the family’s homes, businesses or heritage. Totally erased from the land.

Yet you consistently degrade Palestinians. 🫠 And, no, that garbage has literally NOTHING to do with Palestinians. The fact you think it does only proves Akhtar’s point.
I’m in my late 30s, and this is still literally my worst nightmare - losing my mum. Just heartbreaking to watch someone so young and innocent go through this trauma.
@aziz0nomics
@tweetchamp
Rubbish! You put the onus on oppressed Palestinians to achieve peace instead of Israel. You hold Palestinians to a higher standard than you do Israelis. That’s all part of the degradation. You’re not pro-Palestine at all. Nor are you helpful to the liberation of Palestinians.
How does one go from campaigning for Jeremy Corbyn to praising Margaret Thatcher? They’re two people with diametrically opposed politics. Keir Starmer is such a fraud. He doesn’t stand for anything but himself.
@BellaWallerstei
It does nothing of the sort. The pathological hyperbole you spew really is absurd. BBC Verify reports on activities taking place in Gaza, by Israel, has absolutely ZERO to do with Britain’s Jewish community. You’re gaslighting Britain’s Palestinian community.
@aziz0nomics
“We”? LOL! You mean Palestinians? No, the oppressed cannot break the cycle. That’s logically fallacious. The oppressor needs to break the cycle. This really is very basic. What are you struggling to grasp?

You’ve literally only tweeted about Palestine three times before 7th October, and that was to mock the flag. Hardly convincing.
Lyse Doucet: "We heard from the head of UNRWA addressing the UN security council, no area is safe in Gaza, a million people, he said, have moved south, but Israel has continued to bomb the south"

@aziz0nomics
@tweetchamp
Palestinians didn’t “start” war. It’s been ongoing for 100 yrs, with Palestinians living under occupation since 1948, and Israel being the oppressor. You’re holding Palestinians collectively responsible for their own oppression instead of their oppressor. You’re so disingenuous.

Goodness. Your PR person at the time really didn’t do their job very well. A press interview with NBC is not a minor event to just throw an untrained night editor into without a briefing. 🤯 But at least you’ve a great story to tell, and nobody was (physically) scarred!
@YuvalMimi
@paliiadq
No babe, your birthright is Ethiopia, like your parents and grandparents before you. Your mother tongue isn’t Hebrew, it’s Amharic or Oromo. You’re not a tribe, you’re a religious cult colonising native Palestinian land. Stop being so entitled.

@AkanKwaku
Hamas aren’t the ones who dropped warheads on them. For a supposedly professional journalist, you don’t half spout a load of disinformation. Your credibility is in the gutter.
@Sephardimex
If you’re an Orthodox Jew, you’d accept what’s in your Torah. You not read the Book of Joshua, coloniser? Deuteronomy 9 really is fascinating insight into why you think you’re entitled to murder and maim non-Jews.
@aziz0nomics
“Us”? We are not involved in what happens in Palestine. We are both in the UK.
Are you mad? Israel is the illegal occupier. That is internationally recognised. Illegal occupation is a form of oppression. Palestinians aren’t oppressing Israelis. Good grief this is so basic!

Not just Arabic names, but a lot of other names. My surname is Armstrong but that doesn’t erase my Palestinian heritage going back generations. It’s nothing but a poor attempt to delegitimise Palestinian connections to their homeland.
@Perifinesse
@Khaledhzakariah
Absolute nonsense. Here is the census from the Palestine Survey following the fall of the British Empire. Arab population increase was NATURAL. They were births. Jewish population increase, however, was down to migration/settlers, just as your own family were.

Judea hasn’t existed for millennia, nor has it ever been a sovereign territory, let alone an ethnicity or a nationality. Honestly, the mental gymnastics you clowns perform are truly medal-worthy.

I personally experienced picture 2 when I visited the West Bank. It was petrifying. Can’t imagine the humiliation and degradation of facing it on a regular basis.
@HenMazzig
That isn’t “the only” difference, you clown. Hersh was a coloniser. A foreign settler. A trained, violent thug. Eygi was a short term visitor. A humanitarian. A peace activist. Trying to morally equate them is not only disingenuous but a downright insult to Eygi’s memory. STFU.
@BowenBBC
I think about this story often, and am so very grateful you came out alive and still have the strength, both mental and physical, to continue reporting. It’s invaluable. Just as Shireen was. Thinking of all of you who were close to Abed and Shireen. They’re never forgotten.
@Sclemm
@SholaMos1
ALLEGED. It’s not a fact. And even if it were, UNWRA has 30,000 employees. That 0.0004% of UNWRA’s employees were involved doesn’t make UNWRA as a whole complicit. This is pretty simple.
@SpencerJJoseph
@edokonrad
Why have you put Palestinians in inverted commas? And even if they did live under an “oppressive feudal system” imposed by other imperialists, that sure as hell isn’t an excuse to continue their oppression under a new regime.
@Sephardimex
Jews don’t have a single interpretation of their holy books. If you did, you’d follow the Tanakh to the letter. Those who do, like the Haredi, are anti-Zionists. But you’re proof not even Orthodox Jews have a common interpretation of your religious book. You’re a coloniser.
@StewartMills
This is anecdotal, at best. To hinge freedom on the words of a select few Twitter users, rather than the majority of Palestinians, is dystopian. The vast majority of Palestinians living under Israeli apartheid won’t even have heard the name Elisabeth Tsurkov.
@aziz0nomics

You do realise Israel was made up of settler colonialists and Palestinians were natives? Why do you believe native Palestinians should agree to handing over their land to settler colonialists? You do realise colonialism was outlawed, right? 🤡

No group of people has a “right” to form settler colonies in a land they’re not native to. What you’re describing is your own supremacist beliefs.

When will drivers in London learn the fucking Highway Code?! If, at a junction, a pedestrian is crossing the road you want to turn into, it is the PEDESTRIAN’S RIGHT OF WAY. Don’t honk your horn thinking you own the road because you’re in a 4x4. Knobhead.
The Bible isn’t “historical truth”, you clown. It’s your supremacist belief. Take your colonial ass back to Poland, which is your actual historical homeland. 🤡
The Jewish people are not occupiers in their own land, including in our eternal capital Jerusalem nor in Judea and Samaria, our historical homeland. No absurd opinion in the Hague can deny this historical truth or the legal right of Israelis to live in their own communities in

“Full autonomy”, except over their airspace, their maritime, their import, their exports, their economy, their freedom of movement, their national register, their utilities”, but sure, “full autonomy”. 🤡🤡🤡
Why is there such a huge price disparity between buying a new iPhone in the US and the UK? An iPhone 12 mini is £230 cheaper in the US. I could literally get a flight to NYC for that amount. Madness.
A lot of these accusations, however, are not limited to Saudi. You can’t peacefully protest in the UAE. Sheikh Issa of Abu Dhabi was caught on camera torturing a guy but found not guilty in court. You can’t criticise the state on social media in UAE either.

Firstly, not enough food is entering Gaza to sustain life of 2.3 million people. Secondly, Israel was never facing a genocide. Thirdly, hostage came out of Gaza only when there was a diplomatic agreement and Israel released Palestinian hostages.

With all due respect, you are publicising his extremist fringe views which, by your own admission, changes broader public perception and therefore impedes Palestinian freedom. He probably doesn’t even live in Palestine. Stop giving cretins air time.
