I apologize if the headline looks wrong, but I don't know how else to put it.

But every now and then, whenever a Muslim or Arab is interviewed by the mainstream, mostly liberal media, they've always asked about how the Jewish people would be safe with them around. Especially with Abdul El-Sayed or Zohran Mamdani.

Even when the Jewish people themselves have assured they're are definitely safe, and worked together often with Muslims, the media still keeps pushing down hard on their lives & safety, and ignore their assurance.

It's exhausting, and only seeks to divide both communities from each other.

As a Muslim myself, I personally pray both Jews & Muslim unite stronger, and never have to put with these questions.

For the past years since the genocide began, despite massive video evidence of this horrible event, it's terrible how certain people, especially so-called 'liberals' are still in denial.

Have you ever been called 'antisemitic' by these 'liberals' for showing said video evidence?

How's your experience?

This article is actually 2 years old, but the same shit is still happening now in Malaysia, especially when the next General Election is getting closer here.

TL;DR, local ultras & fundamentalists violently discriminate against Rohingyas, calling them 'Zionists' for allegedly taking over land & businesses; and also calling them 'cowards' for fleeing a goddamn genocide in Myanmar, compared to the 'brave' Palestinians for 'staying & fighting on their land', despite actual existence of Palestinian refugees. This isn't just social media; even mainstream media are vilifying the Rohingyas

Since Malaysia isn't a signatory ⁠to the ​U.N. refugee convention, refugees are considered illegal immigrants.

Rohingyas are about as Muslim as most Malaysians here, yet they're treated horribly in our country. The use of antisemitic tropes & conspiracy theories to justify discrimination against Rohingyas & other refugees. This whole thing feels wrong.

It's equally hard for me as a Muslim myself to call out the fundies here, as there's high chance of us being doxxed by these bastards.

I really wish there are some ways to protect the Rohingyas, instead of resorting to to antisemitic bullshit against them.

Ok

AFAIK, I only read articles about the current genocide, but even if I know Edward Said, Ramzy Baroud, Ilan Pappe, Gabor Mate, Anthony Loewenstein or Mearsheimer, I realized I haven't read enough.

Are there any other books you'd recommend?
