HUMANITY OVER TRIBALISM - BASSEM YOUSSEF - The John Stewart of the Middle East - Serves Up Some Food For Thought

You're Welcome w/ Zoe Nightingale

As a Jew raised and Jewish blooded human - who loves Israel and comes from Zionist grand parents - talking about Israel / Gaza / is hard. It just is - and as someone who prides themselves on speaking my truth - regardless of consequences - I am embarrassed to say that I have been avoiding this topic at least publicly - on the internet - because DUH this is scary to talk about.

I made like 7 podcasts after October 7th - AND I WAS TOO CHICKEN SHIT TO POST them - because I was scared / I just felt like I needed more education before saying ANYTHING that would publicly anger people more than I already do. I know. It's gross and I geuinely am embarrassed about it. HOWEVER.... let's DO THIS....

I proudly stand by Bassem - and anyone fighting for human decency - and peace. Since I could think independently - I have spiritually and mentally rejected the propaganda that was shoved down my throat in Hebrew School - and I reject it now.

Being a Jew does not equal being a Zionists. I do not want to be a hurt person who hurts people. Ive been praying for the first time - in a long time - not sure exactly to what or who...for and end to this barbaric and disgusting blood drenched quest to occupy more land.

It is devestating that somehow after all the "lessons" that were suppose to come from being persecuted - being Jewish is quickly becoming synonymous with being persecutors.
