Ibrahim said that the US ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, came to visit him at his home in the occupied West Bank, after Israeli settlers killed Mohammed’s cousin Sayfollah Musallet in July.

“He [Mike] came and sat for an hour. And you know, we got a lot of words that he’s gonna do what he can do. Nothing was done," Ibrahim told Middle East Eye from Silwad, near Ramallah in the occupied West Bank.

    “America First” has a dogwhistle translation that really means “wealthy white people who are favorable to our dear leader, first”.

          You’re insane dude. The Palestinians were just living their lives and then the Israelis showed up and started taking their land. The West Bank is full of Israeli invaders.

          If you’re cool with the status quo in principle, how about you give me your address, I’ll show up with an army and take your land. Don’t worry though, you can live on a corner of it. If you don’t like that arrangement, tough shit. Get violent with me and you’re a terrorist.

              Get the actual fuck off the entire Fediverse dude. No one wants you here. “Promised land” my fucking ass. Get out.

              The only genocides that need to happen is the death of every single Israeli soldier and every single ICE agent. (Every single one)

              That’s one of the most stupid reasons. Why should anyone push people out of their homes because 4000 years ago someone said so?
