\u201cIf Arabs acknowledge that Judeans have indigenous rights to self determination, they\u2019d have to then acknowledge the same for all the other peoples they\u2019ve colonized eg. the Kurds, the Amazighs, the Yezidi, the Druze, the Armenian, the Assyrian, etc etc etc. The Judeans are a loose thread threatening to unravel the entire Arab League. I would love to see all the indigenous peoples unite and fight for their self determination \u2013 Judeans, Kurds, Assyrians, Yezidi, Amazighs, Iranians etc.\u201d \u2013 Jordana Anne This is the ONLY path towards peace on Arab and European occupied lands!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"These<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The path to peace is too easy! Arab settlers, STOP shooting at the Indigenous peoples that you colonized for Colonial Allah and Christ!!! Stop murdering Indigenous Israelis and Kurds, and there will be peace and security upon Colonial \u201cPalestine\u201d! United Nations, STOP UNRWA funding this post-WW1 European established Arab settler Colonialism and terrorisms upon our Southwest Asia Indigenous peoples\u2019 lands!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

JIMENA \u2013 Jews Indigenous to the Middle East and North Africa shared, \u201cWe are horrified and heartbroken by Hezbollah\u2019s murder of twelve innocent Druze children who were simply playing soccer and having fun outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When will the West wake up to the violence and aspirational ethnic cleansing of indigenous Middle Eastern minority groups by the Islamic republic regime and Qatar?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Islamist extremism must be condemned by all those with a conscience, including by those in the highest offices of power in the USA and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We pray for the lives of all innocents in the Levant \u2013 the land of our ancestors and our eternal home.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Colonial \u201cPalestine\u201d upon the Southwest Asia Indigenous peoples\u2019 lands of Israel and Kurdistan is no different than Colonial \u201cAmerica\u201d upon the First Nations continent of Michilimackinac. Racist anti-Indigenous settler Colonialism, whether Christian or Muslim, whether Arab\/European or successfully colonized formerly indigenous, is always a crime against all still surviving Indigenous humanity. For the sake of peace and security for all peoples worldwide, why not THIS instead:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demand that the United Nations of Arab-European Colonial nations force still occupying Christian, Muslim, and Marxist nations (and wannabe nations) that are occupying and terrorizing Indigenous peoples upon our lands to allow Native peoples to peacefully and securely decolonize amongst your Colonial nations. Starting with the Southwest Asia Israeli and Kurdish peoples amongst the post-WW1 European established Arab Colonial nations of Jordan, Syria, and Iraq.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other words, for the sake of worldwide peace and security,\u2026 No more violently racist land-squatting upon Native peoples\u2019 lands to deny our still surviving Indigenous Peoples our peaceful and secure decolonization amongst your European and Arab Conquistador nations!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Listen,\u2026 For most of successfully European and Arab colonized humanity, there was a time when YOUR ancestors embraced their beautiful, intelligent, and sacred ethno-religions, too. Then the Christianized European Conquistadors came and stole you or stole this heritage from you \u2013 forcing your peoples to convert to Colonial Christianity. Then came the Islamized Arab Conquistadors \u2013 who still enslave Africans to this very day, because the Quran\u2019s Allah allows for this \u2013 and they tell you to \u201crevert\u201d to a religion that is not your peoples\u2019 ethno-religions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those amongst you, not knowing your ancestors ways, believe the Arabs and convert to Colonial Islam in the same way you were forced to convert to Colonial Christianity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Colonizer is a Colonizer regardless of ancestry, once indoctrinated into Colonial Christianity, Islam, and Marxism. We Native peoples just want to remain unassimilated and self sovereign upon our lands, too! Why is this so hard for \u201cAmerican\u201d and \u201cPalestinian\u201d Conquistadors to understand?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Easily verifiable historical facts really do matter, except to those that believe in European and Arab Colonial-justifying history revisionisms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Snapshot \u2013 Recently murdered Israeli Druze children, by Hezbollah rockets. If ONLY the world of humans gave a damn about still surviving Indigenous children \u2013 worldwide \u2013 like they do about Colonial \u201cPalestinian\u201d children in the Arab occupied Gaza and \u201cWest Bank\u201d!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Indigenous<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Indigenous Embassy Jerusalem \u2013 Indigenous Coalition for Israel shared about the above snapshot, \u201cThese people are so ignorant. They don\u2019t seem to understand that they are affirming the indigeneity of the Jews by using the word Zion. The Jewish connection to Zion is an expression of indigeneity. It is their ancient maunga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ZION is a hill and fortress in Jerusalem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The name Zion was first used for the Jebusite fortress (\u201cthe stronghold of Zion\u201d), on the southeast of Jerusalem, below the Ophel and the Temple Mount. (10th century BCE)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On its capture by King David it was renamed \u201cCity of David\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In poetry Zion was used for the whole of Jerusalem<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daughter of Zion\u201d referred to the city and its inhabitants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zion often referred to Judea or the people of Judea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes Zion referred simply to the Temple Mount and it was this use that became the regular one by the Maccabean period, when the Temple Mount was called \u201cMountain of Zion\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Josephus\u2019 time \u201cthe stronghold\u201d of Zion included the sites identified at present with Mt. Zion, as well as David\u2019s Tower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By the first century C.E. the whole of that elevation, called Mt. Zion, was surrounded by a wall, part of which (in the southwest section) lay under the present city wall and part (its northern line) ran along the present King David Street, while the eastern wall ran through the present Jewish quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is real #jewishindigeneity #jewish #indigenous #zion #zionism.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the Weizmann Foundation commented, \u201cSame goes for the name \u201cal-Kuds\u201d, the arab name for Jeruzalem (hebrew: ier shalem = whole city or city of peace, wholeness being peace) which literally is a translation of the hebrew name HaKadusha, meaning The Holy (city).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ignorance is one of the roots of all the lies and necessary to rewrite history. This requires total ignorance of the masses in order to establish a new narrative (i.e. brainwash). It all starts with a blatant but deliberate lack of education.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Druze<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We Israelis want what is best for all Indigenous peoples worldwide. Not just for Israel alone, or just Israel and Kurdistan alone. We want all settler Colonialism to end upon European and Arab colonized native lands! We only want our respective Indigenous nations to be peacefully secure and self-sovereign amongst the Colonial nations that have been established by Christianity and Islam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Southwest Asia, these Islamic Colonizers are Arab \u201cPalestine\u201d, Iran, and Turkey. Upon the continent of Michilimackinac, these Christian Colonizers are the United States of \u201cAmerica\u201d, Canada, and Mexico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The United States is the biggest nation upon our planet Earth \u2013 thus, the superpower in land mass, physical resources, and number of citizens to tax and utilize for domestic and foreign purposes. And this MAGA white Christian nationalist movement literally threatens the survival of Michilimackinac Indigenous upon their \u201cAmerica\u201d-occupied lands. And, worse, it threatens any chance we Israelis and Kurds have to end the post-WW1 European established and UNRWA funded Arab Colonial occupations upon our lands of Israel and Kurdistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wake up, successfully colonized USA Jews! Iran is using you \u201cAmericans\u201d like \u201cuseful idiots\u201d, on both the political Right and the political Left. So, our native SWANA voices will be heard on USA social media! Because you are being blinded to reality by these Colonial politics. Protecting Israel will not happen, if you do Russia\u2019s and Iran\u2019s bidding to bring down the United States of America!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Zionist goal gives us an actual opportunity to put into practice, through a viable solution of the Jewish-Arab problem, those principles of tolerance and justice that we owe primarily to our prophets. I am convinced that the living transmission of those principles is the most important thing in Judaism\u2026. To be a Jew, after all, means first of all, to acknowledge and follow in practice those fundamentals in humaneness laid down in the Bible: fundamentals without which no sound and happy community of men can exist.\u201d \u2013 Albert Einstein, a Jew from the European diaspora, with a colonized perspective on restored Israel sovereignty and the meaning of Zionism (in other words, Einstein had a whitewashed perspective that excludes MENA Jewish presence and active resolute MENA Jew Zionism that preceded the birth of faux \u201cFather\u201d Theodor Herzl)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Yohay<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

All too often in Western nations, you will see Jews committing acts of self-belittling in their comedy routines, and these moments almost always have to do with being Jewish by inheritance. A question: Is this an act of humility? An act of not bringing attention to yourself? Or is such self-belittling the result of 1,600 years of exile, pogroms, dhimmi status, and attempted genocides upon our people?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Jew on Instagram, linked below, is doing the EXACT OPPOSITE in his comedy routine. Yohay Sponder is bragging about Jews and our intelligence and our achievements! In a way, he is a comedic version of Itamar ben G\u2019vir. Yet his comedy act begs a question in a USA tour environment:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is his act a lack of humility? An act of boasting by bringing attention to oneself? Or is he just being a \u201cproud Jew\u201d for the sake of all marginalized Jews worldwide? More importantly, how does his comedic behavior benefit all OTHER socially voiceless Indigenous peoples, who are still surviving modern European\/Christian and Arab\/Muslim colonization upon Southwest Asia and elsewhere?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The answer to these questions should be very obvious. It depends! It depends on how you define \u201chumility\u201d. And, amongst Jews, what your theology\/ideology is for your specific native Jewish community. Halacha, \u201cthe way\u201d of our people, is what defines us as Jews, regardless of communal \u201ctheology\u201d. Halacha is a path with many curves and dividing channels, very much like rivers that are collecting the sky-rain and bringing it to the ocean. Thus halacha brings us Jews, ultimately, all back to our Jew\u2019s ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is this mitzvah of having humility? Of \u201cnot bringing attention to yourself\u201d, whether as an individual or as a SWANA people still living in exile, in an authentic native Jewish understanding? (Israel, post-1948, is still demonstrably Arab\/European occupied land, not fully decolonized, yet!) The Torah of our ancestors is itself full of \u201cbragging\u201d, from a non-Jew\u2019s perspective, yet it is all about living a national life of humility amongst the nations. Being the example settler without being the undisciplined tyrant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Sephardi Rabbi Chaim Jachter teaches, \u201cHumility is not denying reality. It is acknowledging who you are [within reality] and what you have done [within this world]\u2026. If humility is not acting like you are less than you really are [the act of self-belittling], what is it? Humility is not mentioning your successes unless it is warranted.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other words, referring to Yohay Sponder\u2019s emphatically Jew-positive comedy act, \u201cHe is not bragging, he is on a mission, and stating his responsibilities and achievements is the quickest way to succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rav Jachter was actually talking about Moses when he said this. How, within our Torah, Moses proclaimed his great achievements to the people of Israel in one pasuk, then belittled himself before Y-HWH about his very achievements!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is humility! This is the Jewish derech, \u201cpath\u201d. All still surviving Indigenous peoples around this world, listen and learn! Especially, if you are in nations that allow social minority critique of the social majority!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What many of us wish most is that Jews, Kurds, ethnic Persians (etc, etc, etc) were able to have such discussions \u2013 in this comedy form \u2013 in Arab\/Islamic nations, and NOT fear being targeted for death (ours and our family members) afterwards for pointing out minority peoples\u2019 achievements and talents within this Christian, Muslim, and Marxist colonized world!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
