hebrew and arabic are both semetic languages and very very similar to each other. if you are fluent in one you can easily understand the other. kinda like english and german, or english and spanish. salam = shalom, bin = ben, allah = elohim, etc.
I am not Jewish, but I am on the left and in love with Judaism. Both the values of the left and the values of Judaism seem to go hand in hand. This is why I refer to myself as a Socialist-Zionist and support Israel with the hopes for the return of the electoral common sense and to see a return of the left in Israel.
I have been wondering why the vast majority of Jews vote democrat. If this is the average Jewish person in America, now I know the answer. These people are voting for ther own destruction, I hope and pray they have some clear thinking in the future before it is to late. Good luck.
My Grand Uncle was an Anarchist who left the US to fight in Spain when the allied British, Nazi and Red Army forces were crushing the Anarchist culture there. He died in Spain fighting for what he, as a Jew, knew was right and good.
My Grand Aunt was active in HaShomer Hatzair as a youngster. Later, in her mature years, was invited to China for an expenses paid 3-week tour in tribute for the contribution she made to the Leftist movement.
Judaism is feared because the heart and Soul of Judaism is radicalism. Judaism is the most radical, freedom-insisting belief system that there ever was.
I write about what I call "Mystical Anarchy". People think that means something weird and trippy because they are in a gentile state of mind.
Jewish mysticism is nothing but Godconsciousness that comes from dedicating one's entire self to justice.
mental masturbation becomes a majority.....cafe standard....with out regard for multiple minority that might be on to something....but politics gets out of control....and then cultural suicide.
Although I am not Jewish, I do thank them for inspiring my leftist ideology today. Many people are confused when I state that I support Socialist-Zionism and think that they can't be one and the same, and they are more confused when I tell them about the socialist movement being the leading factor toward the creation of the State of Israel in 1948.
Can you really be 15? That's amazing. Thanks for sharing this. So much more thought-provoking than "Skateboarders beat a non-skateboarding kid" or other such stuff.
Although I disdain tribalism, I have to admit that this short documentary gives me great pride. And it gives me hope for the future vitality of the Diaspora.
the things you mention are LIBERAL causes not LEFT- the first girl in the vid is clearly idealizing LEFTIST communists oblivious to the history of those movements- woman number 3 yes commies supported Khomeni then lost their heads when he was done using them- now look at Iran- liberated? not
it seems to me that you have a cookie cutter argument and are just repeating it rather than engaging with what people are saying. The first person gives very specific examples of Leftist causes: union organizing, school strikes to support community control over education, healthcare, anti-war work, Palestine. It's a 48 second clip, what information do you have to say that she is oblivious? You are the oblivious one. You don't anything about her.
@JoliePrincessKatana Actually, the commies supported ( if any) his left-wing opponent ayatollah mahmoud taleghani. Todays party in exile, the "Peoples Mujahedin of Iran, lead by Maryam Rajawi accepted his inheritance.
please look at history of CUBA to see what your idealsitic notions lead to- firing squads and cultish dictatorships- look at Iran the "revoltion" used kids like you and then shot them when no longer useful and they got a worse repression than the shah- Khomeni Islam- don't be a dupe- Marx words may look good on paper, in practice --not so much- I hope you open your eyes to reality
Also, do you realize that Marx hardly wrote anything at all on socialism or communism in his whole career? -- the topic he worked on was *capitalism* (hence Das Kapital, and not, say, Das Kommune). The system of the Soviet Union was theorized primarily by Lenin, then built upon by Stalin.
I suggest you try to open up to perspectives different than your own. You may not agree with them, but it's better than just reciting the standard line of whatever you're into.
@Dalambam I suggest you try reading comprehension 101- I said Marx words were fine the same thing you say- those who used them to make systems-not so much (castro stalin Khomeni as examples I gave)
now you cry persecution when the vid says you refuse to play victims?you are very confused and sad JEWS who will be collaborating with those who not only advocate that no one be able to practice any religion and put you in jail for dissenting opinions. the "artist" would be in mental hosp in USSR or in Cuba for making deviant art, ditto the union guy, in any socialist nation would criminalize his dissent and jail him.You make romantic a notion that got many people killed in PEACE TIME not a war
I think you are critiquing some other movie, some other person. I don't recall this clip advocating for a society modeled on USSR, Cuba, or Iran. Or advocating a dictatorship of the proletariat. Take a step back and look at the history of the Left in the U.S. Legalization of birth control, civil rights, the 8 hour day, weekends, women's rights - these are all struggles led by Leftists. I'm not saying the Left is perfect and everyone one and everything done in the name of Left is perfect.
dangerous delusions- these fools don't realize in the socialist utopias they envision they will be the FRIST to be persecuted- espciallyt to goofy gay one without facts or knowledge of actual history
@YoungJewishandLeft katana is just playing to the same fear mongering, telling jews that the world is out to get them and hates them. im muslim, i hear my own people say the same things to me too. dont buy into it for a second. i dont hate jews, in fact, contrary to the propaganda put out there by some racists, the quran teaches us that jews are the closest to us, people of the book, we are permitted to marry jews and eat kosher food, because it is blessed in the name of god.

I so identify with Rachel Marcus.

Isaiah 58 is Jewish all of mysticism.

God bless you for what you are doing.
God protect you and guide you to the truth.
I'm an arab and a muslim and we don't hate jews. jews are our cousins and we speak similar languages and we lived together for thousands of years.
Israel is a terrorist state and all the jews who remember the holocaust should feel for the Palestinians and not help the aggressors.
you people are brave,
you are a bigger help to the palestinians than all the arab leaders put together.
