Palestine
A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

At least say this is from 2016 in the post title and also do the work of finding out if this guy is still employed/even alive. The way you have posted this would make people who don't click through think this is a recent article which is highly irresponsible, there are enough shocking and disturbing things released daily that you don't have look 8 years back for, especially without making clear it is an 8 year old story.
The man is alive and in the same position. He's also said women are unreliable to give testimony in court or serve in armed forces, that gay people should be treated as "ill or disabled people", and that Palestinian attackers should be treated as animals and not human beings.
Thanks for double checking! Do you have sources on his latest statements?
