  • In a 5-to-1 vote, Richmond's city council voted to divest from companies doing business in Israel. It's the second U.S. city to do so, after Hayward. abc7ne.ws/3JHtn6r

    Hayward and Richmond. Surprise surprise. If you’ve been to either place, you know the type of prosperity their leadership brings them.

    Bet they won’t divest their retirement portfolios or personal financial holdings from divesting in Israel or businesses involved with Israel.Remember San Fran did that to Red States. It financially backfired.

    Spend money here only. Tired of our debt and inflation going up cause our tax money and businesses going overseas. Foreign squabbles don't concern us. And companies fueling it need to get the boot.

      Hi there, danish here. I’m curious. How is it in Germany at the moment? Are people allowed to protest against Israels assault on Gaza and do people dare? I heard about the recent forceful closedown and cancellation of a pro-palestinian conference by an overwhelming amount of police as well as a palestinian doctor that was supposed to hold a speech there was denied access to come into Germany or to broadcast his speech online. But I also heard that good stuff is happening there recently as well with german mainstream media finally speaking up with NPR reporting on Germany’s complicity in the warcrimes committed by Israel against the palestinians through their military aid to Israel.

      Danish here. I’m curious. How is it in Germany now? Are people allowed to protest against Israels aggression against the palestinians and do people dare to speak up? Heard a pro-palestinian conference was cancelled by aggressive police force but also that NPR is speaking up and shining light on Germany’s complicity by sending military aid to Israel.

      ​@@mordy91 Hi Mordy. In Germany there is a principal of action implemented that is called the *Staatsräson* . Overall this means 'the pursuit of security and self-assertion of the state by any means/tools'. It's basically a principle above all other laws. And then there is the implementation of Israel into that principle. Mrs. Merkel in 2008 said *_"The security of Israel is part of the German Staatsräson and we have to act accordingly to this, even if there are disagreements on specific topics."_*
      After Oct.7th, Mr. 'spineless' Olaf Scholz integrated Israel even more into the Staatsräson by taking out the 'part'-part and stating *_"The Security of Israel IS the German Staatsräson."_*
      Which basically merges Germany and Israel into one state when it comes to Israel's security. Which opens the door to an unlimited action-taking against *_ANYTHING_* which is now or for future purposes defined as a threat to Israel. This includes critics, actions, boykotts, you name it. It's basically a universal tool to let Israel prevail and to supress anything anti-Israel. In my opinion there is nothing more anti-democratic than this absolutistic/dictatoric construct. Israel and it's actions *_HAVE_* to be supported by the Germans or at least are not to be critiziced because Israel's safety might be put on the line by possible actions following or rising from critics.
      This also means that Israel basically can put it's will upon Germans by the middleman of the german state, if the Germans like it or not. Problem: most of the Germans are disgustingly spineless conformists which *_LOVE_* to be on the so called 'right side', on the side who criticises others and not on the side which *IS* criticised. This majority of my disgusting german "fellows" follow an argumentation like this: "Israel has every right to bomb the Palestinians to pieces, they are all Hamas terrorist and the children will be in the future. No mercy on that rats, they brought everything they now suffer from on themselves with Oct.7th and celebrating the massaker on Isrealis with candies. One Israeli is worth hundreds of palestinian lowlifes. Not less weapons should be provided to Israel, there should instead be more weapons and more powerful ones send to Israel. Gaza has to be flattened. No palestinian state, never ever. God is with Israel!"
      When it comes to Israel, Germany is a policestate. Everything is antisemitc. The majority of the conformists are watching what comes out of your mouth. Jobs are lost for criticising Israel. It's unbearable to watch that zionistic terrorist monster with it's archaic delusional mindset having pathed it's way while oneself being forced to keep one's mouth shut. Present Germany and the majority of Germans are simply disgusting.
      Thank You for listening to my outrage ... :)

      That’s not what it’s about. Just happens to be Israel. Israel is not above reproach. And they don’t need any more of our money to use to kill people and steal more land and water.

      Tell that to the innocent women that were raped by Palestinian based terrorists. It's all about women's rights, till it doesn't suit your rhetoric. You make me sick
