The U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights, Palestinian Youth Movement, and Within Our Lifetime released materials denouncing America as a "settler colonial state" and rejecting Thanksgiving itself
After the defeated Ottoman Empire lost its territorial holdings in the Middle East, with the exception of the Jewish people, no other indigenous peoples were allowed self-determination. Instead, the lands of the imperial Turks were given to the prior imperial conquerors they had defeated: the Arabs.
Put in American terms, this would be the equivalent of returning the lands in the U.S. Southwest taken from Mexico not to the resident Indian tribes but to Spain.
Yet the world accepts Arab settler-colonialism in the Middle East and North Africa as a given if not an outright good for its subject peoples. That fact alone highlights the special pleading and general intellectual bankruptcy of the currently fashionable “settler-colonial” doctrine … and yet it remains untouchable as an “explanatory” device.
You have to give it to the propal movement, especialy CAIR, they are doing a wonderful job of shape shifting. How do you defend yourself from this propoganda. Dont know. The war in Gaza is effectively over. Instead of reacting to their strategy get ahead of the curve and create some propoganda of your own. Post the executions in Gaza by the hamas dudes as an indication of their civilisation. Doesnt matter that a very large majority of Gazans support this action, but that is not important. Its for the european audience. Its barbaric islamic jihadi justice we want to expose. Attack CAIR. Highlight their anti Amercan rhetoric. Every day. Dont go down the path of connecting their leadership with hamas or Muslim Brotherhood. Most people have zero idea of the MB and the implications and consequences of that relationship. In any case within a a short time CAIR will reinvent itself. Talk to Steve Coughlin on his prediction of what they will do next. Or read the milestones document of the MB. use the post modern philosophy that feelings trump facts. Use phrases like " every decent American understands that an attack on the traditional American thanksgiving ceremony is an attack on our core values." Everyone wants to be a decent American. Feelings feelings feelings is the name of the game. Goebels knew this a long time ago.
