Biden or Trump makes no difference; the Zionist Jews control all Americans policies . Genocide of Palestinians and to make way for Mediterranean resort has been in their agenda ever since the Zionist Jews invaded Palestine.

BS your prejudice is showing, of course Zeteo is notoriously against Jews and allow all sorts of shit about them to be published like what you are saying. If you really care about followers of Islam being persecuted you will condemn their persecution by the government of China against the followers of Islam in China.

The article didn't mention Jews because Zeteo has serious journalists who know this 'conflict' is not about religion. Can you expand your hasbara on Shireen's mention of "Zionists Jews" to include "Zionist Christians" who are the primary source of power in the United States of Israel?

Oh now you are attacking Christians. Yes Zeteo also attacks Christians as I have said before Zeteo is funded by radical Islamic interests. It is well known that radical followers of Islam hate Christians more than Jews for the obvious reason that there are not very many Jews left in this world but there millions and millions of people who follow the Christian faith. I am told it is the most popular religion in the world and the followers of Islam are afraid of it more than they are afraid of Jews due to the huge popularity of Christianity in the entire world.

I am not 'attacking Christians' but I am pushing back on your attempts to undermine good journalism and comments with false narratives about religious divides. Go away, please.

You are attacking Christians, Jews and others because this posting venue only supports followers of Islam, OKAY but I just want you guys to be honest about it. What is wrong with some honesty here??? Why are you afraid to admit that you support Islam and the views on this board are those followed by radical Islamists who are against both CHRISTAINS AND JEWS. I have the right to state my views just like you have the right to state your views so I am not going to be a hypocrite like you are and tell you to go away. However, I am going to leave not because you tell me to do so but because I have made my opinion known and the people who read it on this posting can judge for themselves who is right and who is run or you afraid to let people make their own judgements for themselves without your prejudice statements?

Great to hear you're taking your false "Judao-Christian' aka Zionist Islamaphobic hasbara somewhere else. BTW, I hold no torch for Islam or any religion, but i do like the good, independent journalism at Zeteo.

Please unpack what you are referring to when you write of eg Islam (Sunni or Shia dynasties), Christians (Catholic, Orthodox, Episcopalian, Methodist, Presbyterian, Evangelicals…) or Judaism (orthodox or liberal -Qabbalistic or not) etc… Deploying such bare plurals in any earnest argument do with current genocidal conflicts about control of geographical spheres of power becomes meaningless noise. Distracting from both the inhumane atrocities being committed and blurring the focus on how to approach any humane way forward for all concerned.

Zeteo is definitely anti-Israel but more in a genocide-is-wrong kind of way. It is people like Netanyahu who want the world to conflate being against Israel with antisemitism. Totally untrue. There are many, if not most, Jews in the U.S. who do not approve of Israel. This is about the same as saying you hate people from the U.S. because Trump is terrible. Most of us find him deplorable.

Agree 100% Jonathan. I've become more pro-Jewish during this genocide because I've listened to lots of Jews who are horrified by Israel's actions with full-throated support from the US Empire. I hope the state of Israel can survive it's genocide and help the world make reparations to Palestinians.

Then why is Zeteo so afraid to disclose the Islamic organizations that help fund it??? I just want them to be honest and not avoid the question. Then I am done here.

Agreed, Biden, Trump not really a difference in impact only in tone. Israel as it is now is the rabid dog, given free range, by a gang of thugs who are based in Washington DC, with affiliate gangs in the capitals of other nations. Why cannot peace and dignity reign in our world. It cannot when the days of enlightenment are being darkened by bigotry, fear, ignorance and the theocratic, autocratic, etc policies, rhetoric and actions of our governments. We are all one people we are more the same than we are different.

I'm sorry but Trump cannot pretend to be peacemaker nor can the world assume he is being led along by Netanyahu. The US veto of ceasefire at UN only country in the world to do so, shows that rather than being led by Netanyahu, Trump is rather his partner in crime. I believe his motive with Netanyahu is to drive through ongoing genocide and systematic razing of GAZA to the ground, all Gazans to the concentration camp that is Al Mawasi, a tent city death trap 14km long 1km wide departure area, from where the rest of the world will be pressured to accept as refugees the Gazan population herded to that place. It's a shame the US has come to this place. It's lost it's moral leadership role in the world, in favour of developing Gaza as a Greater Israel Riviera following genocidal war crimes it has large responsibility for.

Prof Ruth Ben Ghiat explained Trump's foreign policy today as well as his domestic in her weekly Substack Zoom meeting. She explained that Trump is setting the US up to be a regional not a global power, and will let Putin be the power in Europe (which he is not), and Xi in Asia. She says that while for the first time there are more fascist regimes than democratic, there is a movement towards democracy in the world. Trump helps Netanyahu out in Israel with some strikes against his enemies, and has a domestic policy that silences those who would be critical of Israel.

Here at home Trump is using physical appearance to remove people and send them to other countries, which is part of his foreign policy. I just wrote this about my experiences of workers being scared of ICE.

Yesterday I explained that I was packing up and moving and dependent on immigrants each step of the way.

The Trump regime is fascist and the Biden administration was not. The perspective of fascism will color everything Trump does.

You've been on quite a crusade against Zeteo haven't you! What was it about this reprinted article by Branko Marcetic that got you all fired up? Do you troll him every place where his opinions get shared? If he annoys you more than Zeteo, I might follow him.

There's no mention because it is irrelevant to this article. Are you mentioning China and Islam because you don't like articles about apartheid and genocide in Israel?

Seems like a stretch ‘comparing’ the two admins at this point, no? Biden DID NOT experience a normal transfer of power from his predecessor! He walked into a shitshow, that required DAMAGE CONTROL - so pls make note (famous short 🇺🇸 memories at work?!). So YES - he was continuing 40 years of 🇺🇸 diplomatic tradition - which was sadly out of date (and Bibi knowing him so, so well was definitely a minus, granted). I felt he was focused on NATO and I wonder if the arms restraints on UKR was related to that. That said we knew what side we ALL were on!!!

Yup if 🍊 sees a tiny shaft of light he pounces - so yeah the ‘historically horrible’ branding fit his narrative perfectly. And he spun it in his favor (as we let him slide for 30,000 lies in his first term, weirdly) And we quickly forgot the COVID death count as he takes a jackhammer to the final vestiges of the Rose Garden.

Good Faith / Bad Faith? Whatever… the zeal with which that ppl turned on Joe was f’n STUNNING… but sure everyone loves / needs a content horserace… wtg 🇺🇸😒

(Oh and btw - Brazil convicted Bolsonaro after 3 years - and Merrick G DID have a trail set - 3 years after J6. Guess who stopped it… John Roberts ;)

It’s so frustrating that millions of US voters didn’t SEE this Obvious Fact, before they “refused to vote for a G’er like Harris”

and so voted de facto, or in some cases Actually, For A Self Proclaimed Predator whose party has been conducting a koo of our judiciary (sound familiar????) for decades, which had Overtone ROE which so many men and women seem to have forgotten,

and whose son-in-law Kushner (not the one convicted of witness tampering for hiring a prostitute to entrap his sister’s husband for being a witness to his corruption trial, his son) and former MidEast Advisor was already suggesting that Palestinians be “removed” and crowing about the “waterfront properties” he was planning to develop in Gaza.

Whatever. Too late now. May I suggest you study Chess in case we still have a chance to VOTE (strategically this time, right?)

and maybe even get out of this corner you’ve backed us ALL into? With a lot of hard work that we all should be doing a lot more of, including me, bye

The Zio-Nazis, the Zionist Jews, Thalmudic, the satanic Jews have been behaving exactly as per the demonic religious beliefs for centuries. Lying, carrying out genocides everywhere and profiting themselves. It's in their genes. They can't help it. Genocide of Palestinians is just another dark chapter in their crimes against humanity.

Another thing: Why does Zeteo refuse to disclose its funding sources even though I have specifically asked them to disclose this? What are they hiding?

It is very simple... Zeteo is funded by the paid subscribers to it. You are helping fund it, as are we all the other paid subscribers. This is why it is independent.

Obviously people pay to subscribe to this venue. THAT WAS NOT MY QUESTION. My question was who, who are the people who subscribe??? Yes American citizens subscribe I get that, what to know specifically which has never been answered is that does any organization or country as opposed to individuals who follow Islam and/or spread Islamic propoganda ALSo in addition to individuals support this Venue??? That is my question and it so far has never been answered by zoeto because they do not want to disclose the name of the Islamic organizations that support this posting.

LOL. Zeteo have been VERY transparent about their funding sources. It must be really annoying for hasbarists who are so effective in bullying mainstream media that little free people like me are using their hard-earned savings to subscribe to good Independent journalism. You obviously don't like Zeteo, so who is paying for your subscription?

Elena Freshman Schumann's avatar

If they are transparent please enlighten me on the subject and tell me where on the internet I can find out the funding source for Zeteo, the only information I found was a vague statement about American citizens funding Zeteo which does really give me any information at all. So CITE THE SOURCE OF FUNDING FOR ALL of ZETEO NOT JUST A SMALL PORTION of the funding but all of it and I will gladly go to the source you Cite with all this Alleged information so I can know for myself how zeteo is actually funded.

I am paying for my own subscription and you are correct I do not like them. They are not hiding their hatred of both Christians and Jews and love for the Islamic religion. I do not mind their love for Islam, what I mind is their constant critic of both Christians and Jews, that is not fair. People should follow Islam because it is the faith of their choice, not because they hate Christians and /or Jews. The religion has to stand on its own merits which is why Christianity has the most followers of all religions in the world.

However, I have to give Zoeto the benefit of the doubt and know what exactly they are saying for myself before I critic them, it is only fair. I wish they would be fair to certain Jewish and Christian publications as I am fair to Zeteo.

Cheeto And Destruction Of The Middle Class

Cheeto and his Nazi allies know that WE the People will carry the day So one of the prominent overarching Nazi strategies is to weaken the middle class

What does that look like? Primarily it’s the inflation game If you make it hard for the average American to make a living, the pressure becomes overwhelming and damaging Instead of 1 job, one needs to take on 2 or 3 jobs to make ends meet No time for vacations, no time for time off, just bruising through with no end in sight This leads to an electorate that can’t pay attention to what’s happening politically and is so stressed due to inflation that voting becomes secondary or unimportant at all

This is why Cheeto is pushing all the country’s wealth away from the middle class and to the top 10% of the electorate which will reward him with support in political campaigns And this is why Cheeto wants to emphatically lower interest rates because this will cause inflation to go even higher

Inflation is the name of the game for Cheeto because it will create a politically disabled middle class and create a wealthy dominant oligarchic ruling class

Again, no mention of the USA's support of China which is persecuting its Islamic population. Trump and the USA support China through our trade policies. You never speak up for your brothers and sisters who follow Islam in China and how the USA supports China through our multi billion dollar trade with them. I do not know why, well I do know why you do not care at all about the persecution of followers of Islam in China.
