Ali Abunimah’s Timeline Of Terror Support
David Lange
|
For years, I have been documenting various examples of Ali “Abumination” Abunimah’s support for terrorism, lies and other transgressions.
But my post yesterday ripping the Electronic Intifada piece defending a terrorist inspired me to undertake a small exercise: search his Twitter timeline for defense of terrorism, using the keyword “resistance.”
The results? 100s of tweets going back as far as 2008, in which Abunimah not only refers to terrorism as “resistance,” but glorifies the terrorists, encourages this terrorism, characterizes those who oppose the terrorism as “collaborators,” revels in the death of Israelis, and even expresses a desire to financially contribute to this “resistance.”
Here are some of his “greatest hits”:
No resistance movement or revolution ever received a license from its oppressor #Gaza #Israel

#Gaza Palestinians engaging in legitimate resistance against invading #Israel occupiers. Why doesn't Egypt provide them weapons?

Aljazeera: #Israel admits 3 "friendly fire" deaths of occupiers actually result of #Gaza resistance fire.

Resistance in #Gaza against cowardly Zionist terror gangs is absolutely heroic and historic.

Zionists are classic cowards. They can't beat resistance so they murder civilians deliberately instead. #Gaza

Resistance is targeting military bases in "Israel" while zionists attack schools and homes. #israel censorship blocks news. #Gaza

Zionist gangster regime failed to break resistance. Zionists world's best butchers, but they will never defeat Palestine. #Gaza #Israel

@QassamCount Proof that Olmert is a liar and the resistance to Zionist settler colonialism is undefeated and undefeatable.

Liberation through resistance not "peace" through "negotiations."

I was going to fund Palestinian and global resistance/solidarity with that £52M jackpot! If only I'd bought a ticket!

Palestinian resistance from #Gaza killed Israeli occupation officer and injured 5 soldiers today. Military censorship holding back details

@RiftFisher all the above. Collaborating with israel against legitimate resistance & maintaining corrupt local dictatorial police state.

Abbas is such a liar; he speaks of reviving resistance in Arabic, but condemns it when traveling abroad http://bit.ly/8fVhHi

One year ago today Israel killed 41 people in Gaza; 29 civilians (14 children) & 13 resistance volunteers. Those were some of their names.

Is Muhammad Dahlan still spying on Gaza resistance on behalf of Israeli death squads? #collaborators http://bit.ly/b6BuAn

Ten years ago today: Defeated by resistance, Israeli occupiers beat hasty retreat from southern Lebanon taking SLA collaborators with them.

I prematurely celebtrated Lebanon's Liberation Day yesterday. But wonderful feeling to think again of "IDF"'s humiliation by the resistance.

@amitaisandy Iran supports Hizbullah which is an indigenous Lebanese resistance organization. US supports Israel much more.

Wrong-kind-of-humans' resistance is always "terrorism" because…well, they are the wrong-kind-of-humans. #Zionism

People all over the world are sick of being lectured to that their resistance to empire is a form of dysfunction.

@LSal92 the heroic resistance defeated that wicked scheme months ago

"Unity" means either those who support resistance give up resistance or those who support collaboration give up collaboration. Which is it?

@ThorayaER Whether people support it or oppose it, Hamas has legitimacy as a major political movement and resistance org.

If @IJasonAlexander supports "both sides" equally why does he perform only for "IDF" terrorists but not for Palestinian resistance fighters?
— Ali Abunimah (@AliAbunimah) November 27, 2011
@Arab_Fury A great example of what resistance can do. So why are they abandoning it?
— Ali Abunimah (@AliAbunimah) May 11, 2012
There's no moral equivalence between self-defense and resistance of an occupied people and terrorism and collective punishment by occupier.

Palestinians in Gaza must resist and defend themselves from the violence of the occupier. They do not choose resistance because they like it

Only last week I read about Twitter suspending 235,000 accounts, which promoted terrorism, over 6 months.
“The world has witnessed a further wave of deadly, abhorrent terror attacks across the globe,” Twitter said in a statement. “We strongly condemn these acts and remain committed to eliminating the promotion of violence or terrorism on our platform.”
By promoting all terrorism against Israelis as legitimate, desirable resistance, Abunimah is indeed promoting violence and terrorism on Twitter. So I am not entirely sure why he is still even allowed to have a Twitter account, let alone been granted the blue check mark to signify “verified” status.
Ugh I'm now verified. Everyone please unfollow me.

Oh, and Ali, I am no Israeli government agent. Just an educated, moral person who is sick of the terror support you disseminate.
In real-time: Israeli government agent is trying to get @Twitter to shut down my account. https://t.co/AaMKy6lvDG
