• Israeli arms sales to Europe grew from $724M in 2014 to $1.63B in 2015
• Although the size of New Jersey Israel is one of the top 10 arms dealing nations in the world
• Israel produces 60% of all drones worldwide and sells to over 50 countries, at times selling to both sides of a given conflict, and Israel fueled the drones arms race between India and Pakistan

Palestine is an open air weapons testing and crowd control laboratory with Palestinians being used in the development phase; Gaza is a lab of mass destruction. US super bunker busters were supplied to the Israelis in 2014 and investors stock shot up; war is just business after all.

The “War in Terror” has been a boon to the industry, you’ve seen what amounts to advertisement in every “news” outlet, we are being whipped up into a frenzy once again. The industry also pioneers crowd control research on the Palestinians, and Israel is involved in the training of American forces and law enforcement. We see this in the militarization of our own police departments, Ferguson was but one example of how our system is prepping to Palestinianize our own population, and in fact Ferguson now has Israeli developed/sold skunk spray post the Ferguson events, although no incidents have yet been reported of use on American streets. It’s pretty clear that the Israeli occupation style power structure is moving toward the same in America; a warehousing of the poor in a post industrial age with diminishing living wage jobs and privatized for profit prisons complete with a return to convict leasing.

Much of the security monitoring and mass surveillance technologies are also produced in Israel and sold across the globe. “Targeted assassination” was invented in Israel, which Obama was quite fond of. Abu Ghraib torture methods? Israel.

The US and Israel are not allies. The US and Israeli arms dealers are allies, and war is the business they are both in. We are all collateral damage.

Man, there are some seriously brain-dead cunts on here, and then there is you. How many times have you posted that now, are you totally devoid of any originality?
 
Hey- bath-tub has surfaced for his pro-fascist dump ! Any scatologists care to decipher what the ol' mod-hugger is whining about ?
 
Why would people care what Natalie Portman has to say about Israel? Seriously. Like listening to Kanye or Dennis Rodman for International political advice... Why?

Seriously. Portman is well-known and respected. She has a world-wide following , natural for her profession. Many people with high profiles avoid politics at all for fear of damaging their support base- let alone criticising Izrael for what they believe it to be. So anybody with a high profile who puts human rights before career automatically attracts world-wide attention and the support of the like-minded.
Anybody calling Portman ' antisemitic ' ? Nobody sane. The fact that Izrael has become fascist is becoming widely known- and people like Portman have contributed to the spread of that truth in the face of the propaganda and lies that have preceded it.
The opposition to the rule of law and human rights also care what Portman says. She's very difficult as a subject for assassination, character or otherwise. They can't challenge her publicly because she's speaking the demonstrable truth- and they want that truth stuffed back in the box. Tough tittie.

So Portman- like very many other celebrities - can speak up in support of the rule of law and human rights and not only survive it but actually profit by it in terms of support. Where are the celebrities who stand up and applaud Izrael killing thousands of children, gunning down thousands of unarmed protesters in their own country , stealing territory and holding it by means of murder and torture etc., etc. ? Fascists might view that as entertainment- decent folk do not.

Still couldn't care any less. Playing Queen Amidala doesn't impress me. I don't believe that she has anything of more value than my next door neighbor might on any subject than that of acting.
