    A man has been sentenced to 18 months in prison after telling a woman that he was also Jewish

    Jo Adetunji and Harriet Sherwood in Jerusalem

    A Palestinian man has been convicted of rape after having consensual sex with a woman who had believed him to be a fellow Jew.

    Sabbar Kashur, 30, was sentenced to 18 months in prison on Monday after the court ruled that he was guilty of rape by deception. According to the complaint filed by the woman with the Jerusalem district court, the two met in downtown Jerusalem in September 2008 where Kashur, an Arab from East Jerusalem, introduced himself as a Jewish bachelor seeking a serious relationship. The two then had consensual sex in a nearby building before Kashur left.
    When she later found out that he was not Jewish but an Arab, she filed a criminal complaint for rape and indecent assault.

    So in order to keep grinding the axe against Israel, we have now descended into a farce of pretending there's virtue in committing fraud to obtain sex?

    We now have to deny women the right to choose who they sleep with, just like the people who hounded August Ames to suicide?

    THAT is liberty here now? The right to commit fraud to satisfy lust?

    If a person needed confirmation that this place had indeed turned into a moral sewer, your post provided it many times over.

    This is the type of irrational mindlessness one often hears from other state worshipers. For instance one may explain the virtues of free market, or elimination of the income tax, or vastly shrinking government. In response, rather than any sort of rational thought, one receives bizarre knee jerk labels like "you're racist" for wanting low taxes, or "you're fascist" for wanting smaller government or some other equally ludicrous non sequitur. Or one exposes the asinine totalitarian abuses of a despotic statist government and the thoughtomato with the same "moral sewer" willfully ignorant mindset defending such radical and evil statism, murder , theft, makes an equally unintelligent and bizarre non sequitur that one is a "Marxist" for exposing truth and such statist abuses.

    Talk about "moral sewer." The thoughtomato's defense of this lunacy judicial ruling reveals the true moral sewer.

    Were we to start imprisoning women or men who are dishonest with their would be consensual lovers then the world needs a massively lager prison system. How many men or women have consensual sex with a partner who turns out to still be married, or in another relationship, or cheats on them, or a person that misrepresents his income or status, or who misrepresents her financial stability hiding her $100k in debt, or misrepresents their religious piety, or a pretends to be more liberal or conservative than they really are, or college students that falsely pretend to be Republican or Democrat to build rapport toward that hook up with that hot stud or that hottie, or the Spanish guy that presents as an Italian stud because he thinks the chicks will be more into him, and the list goes on. Should we imprison now half US college population?

    And what if the roles were reversed. What if an Israeli man went to a nightclub and presented as Arabic and had consensual relations with an Arabic woman. Do you really think Israel would be imprisoning that man for consensual sex? Not on your life. There is no equal protection in a state implemented separate and unequal apartheid judicial system. No, the real crime is the consensual relations between and Arab and a Israeli Jew. Israel's Geocartography Institute found that more than 50 per cent of Israeli Jews thought marrying an Arab was a criminal offense "equal to national treason".

    This is a government that kills and maims and kidnaps on a regular basis, that turns a blind eye to paramilitary organizations that invade Palestinian villages to wreak violence to "persuade" residents and neighboring villages to leave so that they can be bulldozed and converted to new settlements. It is a practice that has been going on for decades. Manachem Begin used to lead one of these paramilitary terrorist organization, and was actually wanted as a terrorist by the UK government as well as a prior Israeli government. Yet rather than face consequences for his crimes, he was founded the Likud party and the terrorist was elected Prime Minister. WTF? In just the first 2 weeks of 2018 , this government has already killed three Palestinian children and eight adults. Will any of the perpetrators end up in prison? Heck no.

    It is an apartheid state with a rigged judicial system with no such thing as equal protection. If the Israeli government wants complete segregation from any Palestinians than go back to recognizing the two separate states and be done with it. Otherwise insisting on the one state solution, concentration zones, police state abuses, apartheid, unequal judicial system, theft, murder, kidnapping, and more means they have an extreme and horrific human rights issue. It must end and the US government must stop supporting it.

    Jewish Teens Demonstrate in Support of Ahed Tamimi

    "We want to send a message to Ahed that we are with her."

    In protest of the detentions, Jewish high school students across the United States took to the streets on January 31, showing solidarity with Ahed and their Palestinian counterparts. … young Jewish Americans organized for Palestinians of their own age. Ariela, one of the teens leading the action on Wednesday, tells Teen Vogue that the protest proves American Jewish teenagers want peace for everyone — including Palestinians.

    "There's a change happening in our community, and our generation is at the forefront of it, ready to speak up about the injustice of the Israeli Occupation," Ariela tells Teen Vogue." Jewish American teens are applying the Jewish values we learned … We want to send a message to Ahed that we are with her, we are inspired by her, and that we are fighting for her freedom." …

    IfNotNow is a group of young American Jews organizing against Israel's occupation of Palestine. Protests in support of Ahed broke out in Washington, D.C., New York, Boston, and the Bay Area on January 31, …



    Ariela said she hopes other young Jewish people will better understand how Palestinian youths are treated. "I want people to know that the young Jewish people in the streets are the moral voice of our community, that we will stand up for what is right and transform our community in the process," she says. "We love our community — and we will be the generation to end the American Jewish community's support for the occupation."

    Ivanka And Jared’s Jerusalem Visit Slammed On Twitter

    “Daddy’s Little Diplomat” gets called out over Israel trip.


    By Ed Mazza


    President Donald Trump sent his daughter and son-in-law to Jerusalem to help open the new U.S. Embassy there on Monday.

    While the dignitaries were celebrating this major change in Mideast policy, protests against the decision to move the embassy turned violent in Gaza. According to the Palestinian Health Ministry, Israeli troops shot and killed at least 58 protesters while some 2,700 others were injured.

    The demonstrations were not mentioned during the embassy ceremony, but many people took to social media to call out White House advisers Ivanka Trump and Jared Kusher for celebrating the opening in the wake of such deadly violence:

    Abby loses her way whenever she starts talking about Socialism. But she is fantastic about exposing the militancy and corruption of the US state and its various pet nations across the world, like Saudi Arabia and Israel.

    Those Jewish militias have been active since the British Mandate. The British started importing foreign born Jews from Europe (mostly) to Palestine in order to use them as militia forces to help them violently suppress any efforts by the Palestinians to gain independence from foreign colonial rule. These same militias then became the backbone of the Israeli invasion and annexation of Palestinian lands.

    At least 16 people, including 12 Palestinians and four British nationals, were hospitalized on Monday for injuries sustained during a violent, massive Israeli demolition operation in the occupied East Jerusalem town of Sur Bahir. Locals told Mondoweiss at the time that armed Israeli soldiers forced their way into the homes and were “extremely aggressive” as they removed residents and foreign activists who had barricaded themselves inside in solidarity.

    Another ‘NY Times’ biased report — this one about Israel’s destruction of Palestinian homes in Jerusalem

    Media Analysis
    James North on July 23, 2019
    The New York Times had to report Israel’s shocking demolition yesterday of Palestinian apartment blocks in Jerusalem; the story was too big to ignore. But the paper’s Isabel Kershner cleverly tried to present Israel’s brutal action in the best possible way, while muffling the voices of the victims.
    Contrasting the Times’s coverage with other reports, including an excellent article by Mondoweiss’s Yumna Patel, reveals just how biased Kershner’s effort is.
