This is what James Baldwin said about israel-palestine in 1979. Does it sound similar to what Philippines suffered under colonialism? -- "But the state of Israel was not created for the salvation of the Jews; it was created for the salvation of the Western interests. This is what is becoming clear (I must say that it was always clear to me). The Palestinians have been paying for the British colonial policy of "divide and rule" and for Europe’s guilty Christian conscience for more than thirty years"

[@GEN8studio]

I'm sad for their loss but this video clearly shows that Israel do not want filipinos or any other ethnic minorities. Cydrick's father was deported, they are not even given citizenship even though he is born there, non-jewish Israelis cannot even serve in the IDF or given citizenship unless you are willing to kill innocent people for them!! How stupidly blind are these people!! Please wake up. You guys are supporting the most vile government -- I am beyond disappointed!
