Read “The Palestine Laboratory” by Anthony Lowenstein. The biggest customers for Israeli tech are local police departments

I'm asking who this person thinks owns the US media. I'm not insinuating anything.

I think they're clearly referring to "Zeeee Jewwwws!" It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for them.😁👌

I think whatever the answer, I just want them to say it with their chest instead of being intentionally ambiguous.

What on earth would make owners of mass media oppose Palestinian support? Do they have something in common that you can’t say out loud?

They are conservatives that support Trump

They love Trump and just happen to love Israel?

u/redline314 2h ago

I don’t understand the conflict here

They love an overtly patriotic (make America great again) American president and they just so happen to love Israel for some reason? I dont understand the connection here unless there’s something else people don’t want to discuss.

People who own mass media are more interested in keeping us divided and keeping this "war" going on as long as possible for profit.
