Matt Taibbi Flashback (9/11): CNN Sentences Palestine To Death

There was a candlelight vigil in East Jerusalem on the night of the 9/11 attacks, Yassir Arafat gave blood, schoolchildren around the country took part in moments of silence…

Instead, the media showed the same 30-second clip over and over… The obvious agenda was to rally its viewers around the very crudest response to the news: violence needed to be met with more violence and a political clampdown…

Probably no single film clip in recent history has had as much of an impact as the Palestine clip. Summing it up was Ehud Sprinzak, an Israeli expert on terrorism, quoted in Reuters referring to the clip: “From the perspective of Jews, it is the most important public relations act ever committed in our favor.”

Matt Taibbi Flashback (9/11): CNN Sentences Palestine To Death

Israeli to American: “The godly thing to do is to kill you”.

Bitchute

Middle East Eye just uploaded this video. It’s from a few years ago. I remembered that I had uploaded it to my Bitchute. Apparently, it’s resurfaced on social media. I’ve only found it recently posted on Reddit.

“The Godly thing to do is to kill you. That’s what the Torah says.” Video footage captured a verbal altercation that took place when an Israeli approached a group of Americans who had been stopped by Israeli police for unknown reasons. The video stirred controversy on social media and a debate about the rights of US citizens in Israel.

Is The Torah Condemning Of Killing Non-Believers?

The Torah, Judaism’s holiest text, does not explicitly state that non-believers should be killed. However, there are a number of passages in the Torah that have been interpreted by some as calling for the death of non-believers. For example, in Exodus 22:20, the Torah says, “Whoever sacrifices to any god other than the Lord must be destroyed.” And in Deuteronomy 13:6-10, the Torah says that if a city turns to idol worship, the entire city should be put to the sword.
