Linda Sarsour, leader of the anti-Trump “Women’s March” in the US, who has become a champion of intersectionality – the notion that all oppressed peoples are equal and intertwined; all that is except for the Jews who cannot possibly be oppressed or discriminated against – saw fit to spout off about Israel’s behaviour in Gaza.
I won’t repeat all her lies. You can watch her video at Israellycool – just take it for granted that she covered all the usual tropes: apartheid, disproportionate, oppressed, unarmed, protestors, etc.
The Israel advocacy group Boomerang, headed by Ezri Tubi, has produced this excellent video debunking these vile and antisemitic claims. Feel free to share, and also make use of the arguments therein to counter any similar lies you find in the media or online.
Israellycool also made a similar video, less snappy but with more details. Again, share widely and use the arguments he has made to smack down the Israel-haters (aka Jew-haters):

Thanks Anne. The Boomerang video clip is excellent.
And the dishdash’d mobile human pyre at 0:15 is truly a visual metaphor for Arab mohammedan civilization, eh? Ahmad, to self: “Blow self up in failed attempt to kill others, or go to grad school to advance humanity’s interests? Hmmm… choices, choices…”
When I first saw that clip of the suicide roller-skater I thought it was brilliant but horrifying. Sadly it is a photoshop… But your conclusions are spot on just the same.
Well done, but I doubt that it will make any change in public opinion.
Sadly I think you are right. But there are still plenty of people who are genuinely interested but don’t know the full facts. These videos are aimed at them. Those who hate cannot be dissuaded from their hate.
