Ah, ok, so his goal is world without the US of A then?
Awesome, thanks for the clarification.
As for the “zionizm” - yeah, they like to play this game where they “have nothing against the jews per se” but consider “zionizm” their enemy instead, bottom line being is that they consider the state of Israel to be a “zionist state”. They must think they are unparalleled masters of disguise lol but of course that shit is beyond transparent.[/quote]
Yeah, so he wished for the American empire and Israels “regime” to fall, just like the Sowjet empire fell.
Now you might disagree with that, but that is a long shot from “drive the Jooos into the sea”.[/quote]
“drive ze joos into the sea” was Nasser’s quote before Egypt and other arab countries attacked Israel.
Literally: “We are going to drive the Jews into the sea and wipe them out as a nation”.
Sorry it didn’t quite work out that way dude.

On 11 October 1961 Israeli Prime Minister David Ben Gurion declared in the Israeli Knesset:
'The Arabs' exit from Palestine...began immediately after the UN resolution, from the areas earmarked for the Jewish state. And we have explicit documents testifying that they left Palestine following instructions by the Arab leaders, with the Mufti at their head, under the assumption that the invasion of the Arab armies at the expiration of the Mandate will destroy the Jewish state and push all the Jews into the sea, dead or alive'.
The phrase has been variously attributed by Zionist supporters to Yasser Arafat, Gamel Abdul Nasser, or any other of Israel’s enemies, but none whom I have challenged, including U S Congressman Henry Waxman who made the claim in a letter to me, attributing the phrase to Nasser, have been able to provide any documentation of support for their claim. This 1961 speech certainly predates Arafat’s 1968 ascension to the head of the PLO. The phrase is very much entrenched in the thinking of Israel supporters and is taken as a factual basis for an Arab intent of Genocide and of their own potential for peril.
The speech by Mr. Ben Gurion appears to be the origin of the phrase. A search of the speeches of Gamel Abdul Nasser fails to reveal it, nor does it reveal any other than a pragmatics approach to his dealing with Israel. This phrase is sufficiently dramatic and threatening so that if it was in fact uttered by a significant Arab leader, it would be prominent and easily found in any competent historical treatment, which it is not. The phrase, thus, has a Jewish origin and not an Arab origin. Mr Ben Gurion is the originator of the phrase, in all likelihood.

Soooo, as far as we know, that phrase originated with Ben Gurion, Israeli prime minister, spoken in the Knesset, 1961.
Never thought to check that huh, because it sounds so true?
Sorry that it didnt turn out the way you thought it would.

Not only do arabs constantly call for extermination of the jews :
This will be a war of extermination and a momentous massacre which will be spoken of like the Mongolian massacres and the Crusades.

So you can keep whining about how they get all misunderstood, I’m not buying it though.

“Jewish villages were built in the place of Arab villages. You do not even know the names of these Arab villages, and I do not blame you because geography books no longer exist. Not only do the books not exist, the Arab villages are not there either. Nahlal arose in the place of Mahlul; Kibbutz Gvat in the place of Jibta; Kibbutz Sarid in the place of Huneifis; and Kefar Yehushua in the place of Tal al-Shuman. There is not a single place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population.”
