It's like, yeah I support Palestine, but I kinda think it's a good idea to support Isreal too.

It's not good to support Israel's far right regime.

You can't really support Israel and Palestine anymore unless by that statement you mean that you support one state of Israel-Palestine / Palestine-Israel where all people subject to the authority of the Israeli state today enjoy full civil rights and legal equality.

The two-state solution (which people usually mean when they say they support Israel and Palestine) is just a shibboleth now.

I think I made this argument in a survey course level class presentation once. This was when I was actively taking economics courses, obviously.

I want to clarify I'm referring to 1967 lines and re-annexation by Jordan and Egypt, not just letting either of those two be independent but defenseless natons with their balls in the wind

That's what I did too. Think I even worked in an East and West Pakistan analogy like a good little ignorant Euro-Amerikan.

2. Narrated in very dull English like I was watching the Rose Parade.
3. "Katyusha" popping off when the marines marched by.

According to Politico, several of Trump's high-end donors and other allies will not be attending the event despite being offered tickets by the RNC. "They started this too late and everyone has plans already," said Dan Eberhart, a Republican donor and CEO of the drilling services company Canary, LLC. "Everyone will be there in spirit, but in reality, people planned their July 4th activities weeks ago."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregory_Lee_Johnson

Quote

Gregory Lee "Joey" Johnson (born 1956) is a political activist affiliated with the Revolutionary Communist Party USA.[1][2] His burning of the flag of the United States in a political demonstration during the 1984 Republican National Convention in Dallas, Texas, in violation of a Texas law prohibiting flag desecration, led to his role as defendant in the landmark United States Supreme Court case Texas v. Johnson (1989).[3]

Quote

On 30 October, Gregory Johnson joined Shawn Eichman, David Blalock, and Scott Tyler on the steps of the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C., where they set fire to three American flags while chanting "burn, baby, burn." The four protestors were arrested and spent the night in jail. The next day, Eichman, Blalock, and Tyler were charged with violating the Flag Protection Act of 1989, demonstrating without a permit, and disorderly conduct.[11][12] However, the United States Attorney's Office declined to file charges against Johnson, claiming that there was insufficient evidence to prosecute him. Johnson declared that the government's decision not to charge him was an "act of cowardice" and a "miscarriage of justice," and stated that he was outraged.[13]

Quote

Later years
Johnson lived in Houston for four years after his arrest for flag desecration, during which he worked in a warehouse while his attorneys worked on his case.[4][19] He was described by a contemporaneous Houston activist, Geov Parrish, as an "obnoxious young transplanted New Yorker" who would show up at "every local demonstration with a bloody, severed pig's head (tendrils still trailing along) that he'd drag along on a leash and collar while shouting anti-imperialist slogans; the pig, of course, was the United States."
