It is ironic that they destroyed a synagogue in Tehran. And unexpected for me that they had one.

It must be said that it only could have been unexpected because of a lack of curiosity on your part. The dominant western propaganda is that Iran hates Jews, an easily proven lie. One small example among many is Iran's parliament reserving a permanent seat for their Jewish community.

It is good you are learning the truth of things.

The radical Islamic regime currently in power doesn't seem very tolerant, propaganda aside.

There are many synagogues in Iran 🇮🇷 Jews can practice their religion freely! They are protected and part of Iran !

No one asks why Israel exists in the first place. America did not cede the area to Jews in order to have good tomatos grown there. The purpose is clear - Israel exists as an enforcer of American power in the Middle East. - The nation has always existed in order to control the natives. Its current excesses are in keeping with their original purpose, and should not surprise anyone. Israel is the hired police force of the United States! Always has been, always will be!

Thanks for the like; thanks for recommendation. This video reminds us that the essence of Judaism is not the possession of a Promised Land, but the realization of the existence of a (moral) Law, the study of it, and the adherence to it. Thanks again!

Jews have been in Persia/Iran for centuries.

So that attack on a synagogue was as telling as the January attack on hundreds of mosques and not one synagogue.

I assume it was a mistake.

You should never assume that when it comes to Israel. They dont consider jews who aren't Zionists to be jews, therefore in their minds, they are valid targets as well. They have a long history of killing or failing to protect other jews because of this.

I didn't know that.

A lot of people dont. I will write an article about it eventually.

The zionist state was the biggest mistake.

Agree 100%

I'm familiar with this rabbi. I wish there were many more like him.

Brilliant, thank you. It will be interesting to watch whether christian zios double down on the myth-as-history or whether some are prepared to have a rethink and realise they have been duped, rather like Santa Claus turning out to be a tired sweaty man earning extra money over the holiday season, only with far worse damage. It is time to wake up and know the real history. The appropriation of a myth for land theft and the genocide of indigenous people is bizarre and wrong. This is the christian crusades all over again - barbarians muscling up for human rights crimes committed in the name of religion. I am sick to boiling point of these religious - jewish and christian - fantasies being used to defend theft, rape, and genocide. Anyway, thank for the summary. So real and so true. It is time for everyone to stop associating the word Israel with anything holy.

Thank you. I was raised in a rural conservative Christian area in the United States and I cant tell you that some Christian Zionists are waking up, and they are disgusted to realize that their religion has been tainted by this ideology. Sadly it doesn't seem to be a very large number yet, but im hoping that changes. We need people who were Christian Zionists who have realized the truth to try and wake up more people from their community. They generally wont listen to someone like me because im an atheist.

Thank you 😊

Funny how many Zionist Jews evacuated their so called "promised land" enmasse when the War with Iran came , most fled back to their real homelands in Europe etc .

The truth spelled out!

Nicely said! Thank you.

I've been telling this to people for years and years and years.

The biblical Israel was just as illegitimate as the modern state of Israel. First Hebrews stole it from the Canaanites. Then the white man, having no Hebrew ancestry anyway, stole it from the Palestinians.

Love this 🫶🏼

Thank goodness someone of the same mind. I've seen to have been saying the same thing for years. "Ah but Israel ..." Written so much better than I could manage.

I was raised, and still live, in a very conservative Christian area. I know that many of then actually believe the Bible is literal. They thinks dinosaurs didn't exist and that the world is only 7000 years old. They teach their kids from the Bible when they homeschool them, acting as though its a history and science book instead of their preferred mythology. Sadly the kids grow up and try to home to college and unless they go to private religious schools, they aren't prepared at all. Its very sad.

We call them fundamentalists.
