To all my #US followers despairing over Joe #Biden dropping out from the presidential race and endorsing #KamalaHarris 4 months before the presidential election, I would like to tell you about another woman who was handed the leadership of her party just 7 weeks before the 2017 election and go on to become, imo, NZ’s greatest Prime Minister in my lifetime. Her name is Jacinda Ardern and her election campaign slogan was #LetsDoThis
And I'm proud to be an #American Where at least I know I'm #free And I won't forget the men who died Who gave that right to me And I'd gladly stand up next to you And defend Her still today 'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land God Bless the #USA s/
I have incredible sympathy for US citizens generally only having a choice between 2 parties when it comes to voting. For a country that’s so diverse it seems a wildly unfair and undemocratic political system. The rise of independents in last week’s #UK elections has led to more talk about electoral reform. IMO, US seriously needs to have this conversation.
#NewZealand is set to join a US-led military exercise which will see the #NZDF train beside the #Israel Defence Force. Opposition parties say the NZDF's involvement with the exercise is proof the Government isn't taking the Israel-Gaza war seriously.
It should be a democratic state of Palestine for all the indigenous Jews, Christians, Muslims and gentiles. Islam and Christianity didn't even exist 2,000 years ago so the descendants of the holy land have the legitimate right to the land of their ancestors ahead of the European Ashkenazi Jewish settlers.
You know it’s a complete scam when the antisemites come out to defend Israel from peaceful #StudentProtests of which many of the protestors are themselves Jewish.
Isn't this God you speak of the very same God worshiped by all Abrahamic religions? Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
Zionism is a 127 year old European ideology in response to European antisemitism. The Palestinian's are genetically closer to the historic holy land than any of the European settlers. Not forgetting neither Christianity or Islam existed at the time the Old Testament was created.
I'm not really up for any great theological debate about the rights of Jews to a land inhabited for centuries by Palestinians, the descendents of Jews, Arabs, Africans, Romans and the many other ethnic/religious groups who make up the beautiful history of the holy land. Whatever you care to believe is your personal choice but regardless of how it is justified it does not now or never will make terminating another people and stealing their land ok. #NeverAgain
