Fortunally, I can.You cant criticise Israel,is that the law?
In May 2024, in the wake of a series of high-profile hearings on the rise of antisemitism on college campuses, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Antisemitism Awareness Act (“AAA”) by a strong and bipartisan 320-91 vote. However, the bill stalled in the Senate. Congressional Republicans have indicated that they would reintroduce and vote on the bill in the newly convened 119th Congress, and now that Republicans have majorities and control of both chambers, it is widely expected that the AAA will pass sometime in 2025.
The AAA directs the U.S. Department of Education to consider the definition and examples of antisemitism promulgated by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (“IHRA”) when enforcing federal antidiscrimination laws, including Title VI, which prohibits discrimination and harassment on the basis of race, color and national origin in federally funded programs and activities. The IHRA’s definition is broad and encompasses both widely accepted forms of antisemitism and more controversial examples of criticism of the state of Israel that some view as infringing on the free speech rights protected by the First Amendment.
Even with a multi-layered system, there's no such thing as an impenetrable air defense...Good point @Iskander !
But you have also to remember that those airfields on the ground have 10 times more layered and complex air defences than any city. To overcome those defences is not a simple task. To Shayrat, the US fired 59 Tomahawk missiles. According to Russian sources 23 hit their targets.
Including UK and French missiles, there were 103 missiles’s fired at Shayrat. Some never made it to shore. But in total 71 missiles were intercepted by Syrian air defences. Even a country like Syria could defend their airbase to a certain degree. US an Israeli air bases would be much better protected.
Among The Airbases you want to destroy lie the aircraft carriers. They are the floating air bases and are even harder to hit. As well as its own AD systems, it has 3 to 4 Arleigh Burke Class destroyers and Virginia Class nuclear subs to defend it. Short of a nuclear strike, it is a bloody hard job to destroy a carrier group.

Russia: Syria air defence intercepted 71 missiles
Reports say US Tomahawk missiles used to target Syria, as UK and France deploy Tornado, Mirage and Rafale jets.www.aljazeera.com
If the UN adopts or endorses the IHRA definition, it will embolden governments to restrict legitimate criticism of Israeli government policies, and stifle growing calls for an end to the system of apartheid Israel imposes on Palestinians.

Anti Zionism means that all peoples have the right to self determination except the Jews.Utter nonsence.
That's false. Nuclear research center is located 13 kms from Dimona.Dimona is home to Israel's first nuclear research center,
Trump's ego prevents him backing down. He tends to become more aggressive when things go wrong, not that his ego allows him to concede that things are going wrong.
The chimp has cornered himself with his evil war and now there's no way out for him.
The Zionists appear to believe that their desire for determination of what land constitutes the Jewish state trumps the right of others to determine that they do not want where they live to become part of a Jewish state.Anti Zionism means that all peoples have the right to self determination except the Jews.
That's clear Nazism.
That's false. Nuclear research center is located 13 kms from Dimona.
Iranian missiles have around 200-300 m accuracy. So they deliberately attacked the civilian town. Like they always do.

That's false. Zionism never denied any other right to self determination.The Zionists appear to believe that their desire for determination of what land constitutes the Jewish state trumps the right of others to determine that they do not want where they live to become part of a Jewish state.
That's why anti-Zionists are big fans of Hitler.Hitler clearly wanted German-speaking people in adjacent countries to be free to exercise self determination with the help pf Nazi military might (Sudetenland, Austria). Later he chose to attack, conquer and control other countries with no significant German-speaking minority.
Just what Zionists would like to see Israel doing - conquer and control foreign lands where there is no significant Jewish population in order to expand the Jewish state.
Where are these Jews being denied self determination?
What I said was that Zionists consider their right to determine what land is Israeli superior to the right of others to determine they do not want to be part of Israel. Zionists accord theimselves a right they deny to others. Again, please tell me how Zionists are being denied self determination.That's false. Zionism never denied any other right to self determination.
Anti Zionism on the other hand denies that basic right to Jews.
That's why anti-Zionists are big fans of Hitler.
What do you call what Israel started 3 weeks ago? You are being ridiculous.Israel never started a war.
What else could Trump have done? He didn't receive the Nobel Peace Prize, and in anger, he renamed the Department of Defense the Department of War.Trump's ego prevents him backing down. He tends to become more aggressive when things go wrong, not that his ego allows him to concede that things are going wrong.
I hope that he finds some other problem to solve where things are more likely to go right so he can forget about Iran and set about arranging his next overseas triumph.
What I said was that Zionists consider their right to determine what land is Israeli superior to the right of others to determine they do not want to be part of Israel.
* If you believe that Jews have a right to self determination like all other peoples, then you are a Zionist.I'm anti-Zionist. I am not a big fan of Hitler.
Iran started proxy war against Israel in 1979.What do you call what Israel started 3 weeks ago? You are being ridiculous.
The US and Israel will jointly bomb Iran, but Israel won't take responsibility where it doesn't suit its interests, is that right?It was hit by Tomahawk missile which Israel does not posses.
Israel always makes huge effort to avoid civilian casualties. Israel is the only country who makes knock on the roof as warning for example.
That's false.
BTW they count non Hezbollah militias like Amal as "civilians".
You lied twice today. You could not point at single my lie.
