From my article We Can Have Nice Things Again:
“Iconoclasm is temporary, especially given modern technology. It is permanent only if we allow it to be so. A nation’s monuments might be destroyed, but if the nation remains intact in blood and spirit, its monuments can be rebuilt. Rome rebounded after its sacking by the Gauls and even exacted vengeance centuries later. Nations, assuming they are strong, are longer lasting than transitory forms of government — a fact that civic nationalists, with their inordinate emphasis on constitutionalism, would be wise to consider. Barring total genocide, nations can outlast even the most brutal of occupations in a quiet battle of wills. The conquered mourns, the conqueror is undone.”

It's interesting that protesting in front of the White House, we just happened to run into former IDF soldiers. We didn't run into any veterans of any other military, including the US. But in the middle of the seat of power in America, there are former Israeli…
What a sophist. If "they're already here," then who is bombing Gaza? There are about 7 million Jews in Israel now, all of whom will have a couch to crash on in America should Hamas get their way. Of course, Hamas won't get their way. So expect millions of Palestinians instead.

Without prowhite governments, whites will be the long-term losers of the Palestine-Israel conflict, no matter which party wins out.
Both sides are committed to driving the other party off the land. That means that if either is successful, millions of refugees will head primarily to white countries.
In the short term, the best white advocates can do is divide into two camps.
The first camp should focus on exposing (1) Jewish hypocrisy, hatred, and bloodlust, and (2) the utter subservience of white leaders to Jews.
The second camp should focus on (1) exposing the absurdity of maintaining that that Palestinians in Israel are terrorists deserving collective punishment for their crimes but Palestinians and Muslims in the West are bringers of enrichment, so we'd be lucky to have more of them, and (2) signal-boosting calls to expel Palestinians and Muslims who support Hamas.
Since Israel, not Hamas, is the likely winner of this conflict, white countries are more likely to see Palestinian than Jewish refugees.
Thus in terms of short- to medium-term white interests, it is important for the counter-jihadist voices calling for deporting Palestinians and their sympathizers to win out.
Yes, the counter-jihadists frame everything in terms of Jewish interests. But deporting these people because they are anti-Jewish also immediately invites the questions (1) Why were they here in the first place? and (2) Why were we not deporting them when they were raping white girls?
The most important long-term battle, however, is to destroy Jewish hegemony in the West. Thus those focused on unmasking Jewish power, hypocrisy, hatred, and bloodlust need to continue and intensify their efforts.
