"The right wing whack jobs like Farage, Trump and Netanyahu don’t want Muslims to live in Palestine. They don’t want Muslims to live in Europe. Seems to me and millions of others, they just don’t want Muslims to live anywhere north of wherever."

BT is never one to let the truth disrupt a good Lefty rant, so here are some relevant FACTS for him to ignore.

20% of the population of Israel (about 2 million people) are Muslim.

There are currently 12 Arabs in Israel's Knesset, including the three below.

Khaled Kabub is an Israeli-Arab judge and became the Supreme Court’s first Muslim member when he was appointed as justice in 2022.

Iman Khatib-Yassin is an Israeli Arab social worker and politician who currently serves as a member of the Knesset for the United Arab List. She was first elected to the Knesset in 2020 as a member of the Joint List, becoming the first woman from the United Arab List and the first hijab-wearing woman elected to the Knesset.

Ahmad Tibi is a Palestinian-Israeli politician. The leader of the Ta'al party, he has served as a member of the Knesset since 1999. Tibi was acknowledged as a figure in the Israeli-Palestinian arena after serving as a political advisor to the late Palestinian president Yasser Arafat (1993–1999).


What is truly remarkable is that after almost two years the IDF has still not been able to defeat Hamas. The amount of time, money, materials and effort that has gone into the planning of this war by Hamas must be gargantuan, if only they had chosen to put the same resources into building the Gazan economy, instead of building a formidable war machine, how much better for the citizens of Gaza. What a tragedy.
