A group of Palestinian activists(Actual human beings, not souless vampires) have paid for New York subway ads calling for an end to Israeli Apartheid and asking the US to stop providing foreign assistance to Israel. The ads have sparked outrage of Jewish groups, but will remain for four weeks.(Jews. Ashamed of nothing, and offended by everything) The ads went up in the beginning of Passover, a sacred Jewish holiday that began last week(Yeah, sacred like their hate fest Purim or their chicken swinging). Paid for by the American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), the ads depict the silhouette of a defenseless Palestinian child who is taken hostage by a large Israeli soldier(Accurate.We all know they are cowards) even though the scene takes place on Palestinian ground. The organization claims this image is based on an actual photograph. In blood-red sky that also makes up part of the Palestinian flag is a quote by Nobel Piece Prize winning South African activist, Desmond Tutu. Ive been very deeply distressed in my visit to the Holy Land, the quote reads. It reminded me so much of what happened to us black people in South Africa. By comparing Israel to Apartheid South Africa, the ad has outraged both US and foreign-based Jewish groups who feel offended by the harsh accusations and outraged that they were posted on Passover. (Boo hoo. Cry me a river) While Americans certainly have a right to free speech and advocacy, the abhorrent allegation of apartheid is both factually incorrect and morally reprehensible, Geri Palast, managing director of the Israel Action Network, told the Jerusalem Post. Israel is a democracy that includes rights for all citizens from all origins.(Let me add to it then, Geri boy. It is worse than S Africa. Much. Jews have 400 atomic bombs there, and have mutilated kids with white phos. There. Take offence to that, you nit) The South African policy of apartheid (separateness) legally enforced racial segregation between blacks and whites both economically and socially to maintain white supremacy. The Anti-Defamation League, which works to stop the defamation of the Jewish people, told the Jerusalem Post that the organization was deeply disturbed by the comparison that the ad makes.(Screw Abe Foxman and the ADL, Americans should not tolerate them) Their ad campaign ignores the complicated nature(Not complicated, it is easy, Jews steal) of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and is part of the campaign to delegitimize and demonize the Jewish state, the organization said in a statement. It shows a profound lack of sensitivity that they chose the first day of the Jewish holiday of Passover to announce this malicious and false ad campaign.(How about stick yer demands for 'sensitivity up yer ass!) The Palestinian group responsible for the ad, however, has defended its decision, claiming that Israel, subjects Palestinians on a daily basis to humiliation, deprivation, and a loss of their basic rights, including the freedom of movement. The AMP campaign comes just a few months after the American Freedom Defense Initiative (ADFI) paid for New York subway ads referring to Muslims as savage Jihadists. The ad told its readers to support Israel Defeat jihad. And in response to the Palestinian groups advertisement, the ADFI has instigated another campaign striking back at the AMP. http://rt.com/usa/nyc-metro-ad-palestine-237/ Naturally my thoughts are in blue.
