I do not write to support either the left or the right as both are guilty of manipulating situations to suit their particular ideology.

I don't support Israel because it is Jewish. I support Israel in this war because there is a far greater danger going on - one which I have been aware of since 1982.

How is it possible for Hamas to know that Israel has killed 30,000 people when it now cannot do a swop with Israel of hostages because it cannot find or account for 40 hostages? It says it doesn't know if they are alive.

UNWRA has now been shown to be completely governed by Hamas, and Hamas has repeatedly said that it's purpose it to exterminate Israel, then every Jew on the planet, and then everybody who will not submit to Sharia law on earth. It plans to have the entire earth under the Caliphate by 2050.

According to other Jihadi organizations, the attack comprises several prongs. First enter countries, breed as many children as possible, destabilize countries by suicide attacks, attacking people wherever possible, and finally war. That plan is now in its last stages in Europe and the UK, so much so that the EU has just changed it refugee policy. The refugees tend to be young men of military age.

I do not for one moment believe that 30,000 have died in Gaza. Seventy percent of Gazans support Israel in wanting to kill all Jews. That is genocide. I cannot help it if leftist social media doesn't know the difference between war and genocide.

The Los Angeles Times banned 30 journalists because they sent out a memo saying that all journalists must call Israel an apartheid state (it isn't) and refer to her as being guilty of genocide (it isn't).

For the record, the reason South Africa went to the world court to accuse Israel of genocide is because she launders money for Hamas and other terrorist nations. She would lose a lot of money if she didn't support Palestine. There is a lot of money to be made in money laundering, and South African government is 100% corrupt.

I think, also, you're confused about who I am. I'm a dual South African/German citizen. I spent 11 years in America as a legal immigrant. I have lived and worked in South Africa, Lesotho, 5 countries in the EU, in England, Scotland, and now Ireland. I have also traveled extensively.

I have never been to Israel, and I do not support Israel in keeping the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, and Golan Heights. The West bank was taken from Jordan in the 1967 war. Jordan does not want the land back. Gaza was taken from Egypt in the 1967 war and does not want the land back. In fact, she has an enormous wall that prevents Gazans from entering Egypt. I haven't been able to keep track of Golan Heights, but it was part of Syria.

The difference between you and I is that you are influenced by American media. I am not. I have access to sources that you do not consider and probably don't know exists.

The love affair that many on the left had with me is that I want fair economic systems. Other than that, I have never bought into the many ideologies on either the left or the right.

I'm not sure why you think that Einstein didn't support Zionism. He did. And 20% of people in Israel are Arabs. Seventy percent of Jews are Mizrahi, i.e. they've been living in the Middle East for the past 2000 years (and they're black) and only 30% are Ashkenazi Jews.

QUOTE: Einstein was a prominent supporter of both Labor Zionism and efforts to encourage Jewish–Arab cooperation.[24] In 1938 Einstein explained "In this hour one thing, above all, must be emphasized: Judaism owes a great debt of gratitude to Zionism. The Zionist movement has revived among Jews the sense of community. It has performed productive work surpassing all the expectations any one could entertain. This productive work in Palestine, to which self-sacrificing Jews throughout the world have contributed has saved a large number of our brethren from direst need".[25] Einstein supported the creation of a Jewish national homeland in the British mandate of Palestine but was opposed to the idea of a Jewish state "with borders, an army, and a measure of temporal power."[26]: 33 According to Marc Elis, Einstein declared himself a human being, a Jew, an opponent of nationalism, and a Zionist; he supported the idea of a Jewish homeland in Palestine but until summer 1947 conceived of this as a bi-national (Jewish and Arab) state, with "continuously functioning, mixed, administrative, economic, and social organizations."[27][28]

Any respect I had for Bernie Sanders has completely disappeared. If he does not understand what Jihad is about, and why Israel is fighting a war for civilization, then he is too old to be in congress. Older people often don't move with the times.

Right now, the polls in America show that it's an even bet between Trump and Biden. Since Biden's recent announcement about Israel, the majority of New York Jews have decided to vote for Trump. Also, the majority of Americans, regardless of whether they are left or right, support Israel's right to war with Hamas and eradicate the organization.

Not coming from Africa, you are probably unaware of child soldiers, but you need to google it. Muslims train soldiers from very young to be soldiers. They are taught to hate Jews and others from a very young age. I'm sure you've read this, but you probably don't believe it.

Having met Jihadi, both in London and in Africa, I don't hold the same view that you do.

I fully understand your disappointment in me, but you were mistaken about what I stood for.

I stand for a modern, scientific, atheist civilization, that has an economic system (production and distribution) that does not have the extremes in wealth holding as is now the case.

For the record, I did not move to the right. As Elon Musk, Weiss, and many others have pointed out - they previously voted liberal, but the left is now holding an ideology that runs counter to modern civilization and the long term outcome is that it will destroy civilization.

I'm sure you will find other writers who suit your view, and I wish you a happy life.
