Free the innocent Palestinian civilians' that have nothing to do with this havoc and also free the hostages from the atrocities caused by HAMAS. Remember, HAMAS is not Palestine, they're a religious extremist group using Palestine as a scapegoat. Unfortunately, the masses eats up any headlines that gets fed towards them.
The smartest move Beyonce's publicist team could've done is not involve her in any politics. Politics along with Religion are the most polarizing topics in the history of mankind. When people see you chose a side, they'll point the finger at you.
As a whole, Black people we need to start focusing on other issues. Most of these Arab nations that have black folks treat them like scum.
What I'm saying is she obviously doesn't feel the same way about this issue. Slandering a celebrity online because they don't share the same political views as you is silly and a waste of time. There isn't enough world wide support for Palestine to make a celebrity of Beyonce's stature refuse to take Israeli money.
If the Free Palestine movement had the same traction as the anti-apartheid movements in the 80's then you'd see some high profile celebs backing away from Israel. We're not there yet. It's sad, but blaming celebrities for their choices is not going to change that.
That's why I said previously this isn't black people's problem. Just say you don't understand the complexity of the situation and it sounds sad. This isn't our fight, this isn't our problem. Even if we involve ourselves, the palestinians are not going to help us in turn. Even if they did try to help they have no power especially in America to help. To lose a job or career that you worked hard for over something that doesn't involve you or affect you in any way is just dumb, especially when you are just posting comments. Look how hollywood make Nick Cannon fall back in line real quick several years ago. Stop adopting other people's causes. We have enough of our own problems to worry about.
The way Marc Lamont Hill is moving on this topic makes me think dude is legit antisemitic cause if you know his background with a lot of black Hebrew Israelites and how he tries to clean this shyt up with his new act of just being pro Palestinian lets me know he’ll flirt the line when its convenient.
So yes, Michael Rapaport is wrong and annoying but why is MLH so invested in this argument so much?
They’re so invested in “solidarity” and “intersectionality” of “oppressed people around the world”…but ignore how how those very people view their own people!
Ask MLH if Arabs should own Saudi Arabia and see what he says
This is what I’m saying…Palestinians are playing a weird game where Arabs got everything and they themselves didn’t even ask for a state when Egypt and Jordan owned “palestine” now they keep rejecting claims
So yeah, zionism is weird to the extent that like…muslims praying to Mecca is weird. Its all weird but you gotta pick your battles.
