Went from +51 to -16. And this is just starting. Soon anything that touches Israel will be shun like a leper.
touches israel

least often elsewhere. Posts are matched on those words alone —

Next step: Israel less and less called a "Jewish State" but a Zionist one --since it is analog to calling "Christian State" a Crusader one. Quoting @mdubowitz The collapse in public support for Israel could trigger a financial and economic war against the Jewish state. The architecture for it is already taking shape. My latest: Related

If you are worried that a bull-statue is a Satanic symbol, the odds are very high that you think that Israel must be encouraged to conquer from the River of Egypt to the Euphrates, so that then the monstrous powers of Gog and Magog will attack and destroy them, as payback for and as a demonstration to the world of God’s wrath at them for their sin of rejecting Jesus Christ: **Trump’s State Department’s Obsession with What They Fear Are Satanic Bull-Statues: Laugh of the Day** Or, rather... 1/ Related

Their words
We won't even get into the fact that in the most ancient religions of Canaan and Israel, the bull is primarily a symbol of God Most High, not of the subordinate Ba'al Haddad

The current moment of AI doomerism reminds me so much of the millenarian, apocalyptic thinking of evangelical Christianity it’s uncanny I think it’s safe to say that the Singularity was modeled directly after the Apocalypse/Tribulation/Rapture/End Times, whether consciously or unconsciously This isn’t widely known, but the bestselling nonfiction book of the entire 1970s was Hal Lindsey’s The Late Great Planet Earth. It claimed to predict the imminent end times by mapping biblical prophecy to current events, like Israel’s founding as a state, the Soviet Union, and nuclear weapons He predicted… Related

This tells us all we need to know about UK Lawyers for Israel. Doctors Without Borders is one of the most upstanding nonprofits in the world. Ask anyone in global health. So if you find yourself attacking them, it's evidence that you are evil. Quoting @Telegraph Shabana Mahmood is being urged by UK Lawyers for Israel to proscribe Doctors Without Borders (MSF) over staff’s alleged links to terrorist groups. 🔗: Related

In a difficult and dangerous world, a decade on from Brexit, there is a risk that Britain loses the confidence to lead and stand up for its values. I’m not prepared to let that happen. It is more important than ever that Britain stands for something. We have called for years for a two-state solution in the Middle East, but we must recognise that those words are meaningless unless we back them up with action. For too long, we have been hesitant to act, fearful of being accused of being anti-Israel. Today we are announcing carefully judged, targeted steps that are not aimed at the Israeli peopl… Related

“Israel’s leading human rights organization, B’Tselem”. That’s like calling Code Pink America’s leading foreign policy think tank. Quoting @JewishWarrior13 ⭕ In our Jewish history, we had Jews who were traitors; fortunately, not too many, but these two, Beinart and Stewart, will have a place very high on that list for their contribution to Jew hatred.

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
