Tel Aviv tiff at TIFF

Here's something you may not have heard for a while: "Tel Aviv is built on destroyed Palestinian villages."

Credit for this historical observation goes to an ad hoc committee of artists and filmmakers heaping scorn on the Toronto International Film Festival for daring to program a Tel Aviv segment, as Israel's biggest city marks its 100th anniversary.

In an open letter – "The Toronto Declaration: No Celebration of Occupation" – the signatories condemn TIFF for showcasing Tel Aviv, comparing it to the way a propagandist would sanitize "white-only Cape Town or Johannesburg during apartheid."

Tel Aviv is built on destroyed Palestinian villages

I know it's not popular here, but it's true. Satellite photos uncovered by the Jew Czar while rummaging around CIA archives, all those guys belong in jail along with most of the military, reveal this!

And anyone who can't see the evidence of palestinian, Arab nomads in those days, villages under the sand just isn't looking.

Don’t know about now but in 1985 Tel Aviv was a 24/7 party town where an American GI could not pay for a drink.

This picture is a zionist conspiracy, just like the Holocaust!/S
