I REALIZE THAT SOME ORGANIZATIONS SUCH AS JEWISH VOICES FOR PEACE USE SLOGANS LIKE "ANTI-ZIONISM IS NOT THE SAME AS ANTI-SEMITISM," & ALTHOUGH THAT IS TECHNICALLY TRUE, THIS DOCUMENTARY PROVES THAT SOME OF THE INDIVIDUALS WHO TRY TO MASQUERADE THEMSELVES AS MERELY ANTI-ZIONIST REALLY ARE ANTI-SEMITIC . THIS DOESN'T JUST APPLY TO THE INDIVIDUALS WHO PHYSICALLY TEAR DOWN THE POSTERS OF THE HOSTAGES, & WHO THEN EITHER VERBALLY OR PHYSICALLY ATTACK THE HUMANITARIANS WHO OBJECT TO THEIR VANDALISM. IT ALSO APPLIES TO THE INDIVIDUALS WHO TRY TO JUSTIFY THE VANDALISM OF THE POSTERS, & EVEN OBJECT TO THE POSTERS BEING PUT UP IN THE FIRST PLACE. FOR EXAMPLE, THERE WAS THE MAN WHO CALLED ONE KIDNAPPED LITTLE GIRL A "WHITE COLONIZER," THE NYU STUDENT WHO WAS SUSPENDED FOR HARASSING NYU STUDENTS & WHO THEN TRIED TO DEPICT HERSELF AS THE VICTIM, & AN "INFLUENCER" NAMED HASAN PIKER WHO CALLED THE POSTERS "PROPAGANDA." SOMEONE NEEDS TO INFORM MR. PIKER THAT "PROPAGANDA: APPLIES TO WHEN SOMEONE PLANTS FALSE INFORMATION ABOUT SOMETHING. THERE IS NOTHING FALSE ABOUT POINTING OUT THAT 1200 JEWS WERE MASSACRED ON 10/07/2023 & ANOTHER 250 WERE KIDNAPPED (EVEN AN ELDERLY, WHEELCHAIR BOUNDED FEMALE HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR). WE DON'T NEED TO AGREE WITH EVERYTHING BENJAMIN NETANYAHU HAS SAID OR DONE. FOR EXAMPLE, WE SHOULD CERTAINLY CRITICIZE HIS ATTEMPT TO JUSTIFY THE 1946 BOMBING OF THE KING DAVID HOTEL (WHICH KILLED 91 PEOPLE- 17 OF WHOM WERE JEWS & 48 OF WHOM WERE ARABS) BY CALLING IT A "LEGITIMATE TARGET", SINCE THE BRITISH WERE USING THAT HOTEL AS THEIR MILITARY HQ IN PALESTINE. NETANYAHU'S ASSOCIATION WITH THE LATE ARIEL SHARON WAS ALSO TROUBLING, SINCE SHARON ORDERED ISRAELI TROOPS TO BLOW UP JORDANIAN RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS DURING THE 1952 WAR WITH JORDAN WITHOUT FIRST CHECKING TO SEE IF THE BUILDINGS WERE OCCUPIED. (THE DESTRUCTION OF THESE BUILDINGS LED TO THE DEATHS OF 69 INNOCENT JORDANIANS & ALSO LED TO SHARON'S DISMISSAL FROM THE ISRAELI ARMY). HOWEVER, YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE A SUPPORTER OF NETANYAHU TO RECOGNIZE THE FACT THAT THE TRAGIC DEATHS OF TENS OF THOUSANDS OF INNOCENT PALESTINIANS & THE ONGOING FAMINE IN GAZA WOULD NEVER HAVE OCCURRED IF IT HADN'T BEEN FOR HAMAS' MASSACRE OF 1200 INNOCENT JEWS.
