What's perhaps more interesting is the brief period in the mid-20th century when this wasn't true, and instead the shadowy cabal was "the Chinese" (in the 1960s), "the Saudis" (70s), and "the Japanese" (80s). Probably because antisemitism was briefly put out of public view after WW2.

This is probably going to sound wild to Americans but ‘global warming is real’ is very much not something that needs to be mentioned every time we talk about the weather in HK because for all its faults, HKSARG actually acknowledges climate change is real

The 2001 crisis between Pakistan, the US, the Taliban and al-Qaeda had a lot of moving parts, but one of the most important was that Mullah Omar had never set foot outside his own backyard in his life.

Nor was this a uniquely Nazi affair, similar mass murder campaigns took place in WW1 with the Austro-Hungarian killing of Serbs and Montenegrins, German atrocities in Belgium and France, German cultural genocide in Eastern Europe, and Russian mass murder of Germans in East Prussia.

The early 20th century is a blood-soaked rebuttal to this. There were at least four intra-European genocides in 1941-1945 alone (Nazi genocide of Poles, Nazi genocide in the USSR, Eastern Galicia, and Croat genocide of Serbs) and that's leaving aside anti-Jewish and anti-Muslim mass murder.

TBH when Al-Qaeda provided his budget and one in three of his fighters in the field he had a financial stake in refusing to believe Al-Qaeda did 9/11 no matter how much evidence was provided him. He also sincerely believed Taliban fighters could win a straight up conventional fight with the US.

The constant stream of video content and photos were also frequently disinfo content. Pics of a child from Brazil or a bomb site from Syria circa 2022, pretending to be "news" from Gaza. It smelled like "scam" to me.

The near constant contradictions within the activist community were obvious, but if you called them out, you got called a war criminal. So there's a total information blackout, yet you were radicalized by a constant stream of video content? No news can get in or out, but you can Venmo someone?

It was also telling the degree to which this sort of thing proliferated way more for Gaza than it did for Ukraine, despite the massive population disparity and the complete destruction of communications infrastructure in Gaza.

Imagine being cut off from the world - for your whole life. That's reality for children like Aya. The blockade of Gaza began when she was a baby, the occupation in the West Bank before her parents were born. Now she is eleven, and the blockade goes on.
Aya's childhood memories are of conflict and hardship, walls she cannot escape, and the fear that the only home she knows, however tiny, could be gone when she returns from school.
This Ramadan, please help support children like Aya who have known nothing but conflict and hardship. Donate here: http://buff.ly/2qgsPOY

like I understand why Al-Qaeda did 9/11. It’s because they thought that the US was the great Satan spreading homosexuality and Judaism throughout the planet in order to destroy Islam from within and bring about the reign of Dajjal. Because they’re delusional hateful monsters. That’s why they did it.

It's important to him because he's a white supremacist, which is the same reason he avoids mentioning the Nazis or Confederates when he lists the foes America has defeated. My guess is at least one of his speechwriters believes the wrong side lost in WW2, if Hegseth doesn't.

I will once again repeat that one of my most controversial views on this site is that Netanyahu has spent years waging personal wars to stay out of jail, that his doing this is motivated by domestic Israeli political reasons, and that he's a self-destructive moron. This view makes many people angry.
