In American parlance on the Middle East Arabs in generals and Palestinians in particular are consistently and thoroughly dehumanized.

We are told that we do not value human life. And not only the lives of others, but they we degrade our own lives and push our children to hate and embrace martyrdom.

That we Arabs are an intolerant and hateful people. American Zionists shout this to the hills that Palestinians society is a hotbed of extremism and hate. That Palestinian society for generations has been conditioned to hate and that the people have never made an effort to feel compassion for others or learn the values of the Enlightenment.

[Total Prosports.]

This tactic is meant to dehumanize Palestinians and Arabs so that when they are called by Israel and America no one will protest, because, after all, they are only killing 1/4 of a human, if that.

All of their rhetoric is just hateful lies and they shout loudly because they know they are wrong and think that the more they yell, the more their words will carry currency and their critics will be drowned out.

This tactic can only wrong for so long, eventually they will lose. And people will see that it is not Palestinians but Israel who have been an entire society on exclusiveness and racist nationalism they term “Zionism.”

Congressman Brian Braid recently visited war torn Gaza and he remarked on what he say there. Stepping inside a school nearly destroyed by indiscriminate bombs, he noticed an English-language school textbook had a picture of famed baseball player Jackie Robinson who suffered discrimination because he was Black. The image came with a question: “What about this paragraph tells you about the meaning of the word prejudice?”

Baird remarked upon seeing that, “How quintessentially American can you get, than to try to use baseball to teach tolerance and compassion?” So true.

The Palestinians are teaching their children about tolerance while Israelis elect a fascist.

It is occupied Palestine that is the true bastion of American values in the region.
