Absolute demon shit.

Ghouls be like, "yo, I know I'm a shambling mass of undeath and negative energy, but Kushner, take it down a notch man, you're giving me a bad name."

Related to selling property that Palestinians already own: synagogues in Canada and the US lined up to have Jews-only illegal real estate sales of West Bank properties on stolen land earlier this month. Here's a Jewish man talking about why the sales are illegal and how he organized a protest of the one in his town in New Jersey.

To be explicitly clear though - neither Jews nor synagogues as a whole are the problem (as evidenced by the linked conscientious Jewish protester for instance). I'm protesting the behavior of THESE synagogues and Jew-only events the same way I would if evangelical churches were holding white-only sales events of illegal settlements. Racism is wrong, and so are racially-restricted real estate sales (and more so for being on stolen land).

Remember, you have to vote for the genocidal monster, or you'll get the genocidal monster who's son wants to speculate on the newly controllable land! These are substantive differences for the average voter and average Palestinian.

Maybe someone should remind Jared that Israel exists today due to terrorism. I am very curious to hear his opinion about the history.

On 22 July 1946, Irgun bombed the British administrative headquarters for Palestine, killing 91.[155][156][157][158][159][160] The attack initially had the approval of the Haganah. It was conceived as a response to Operation Agatha (a series of raids, including one on the Jewish Agency, by the British) and was the deadliest directed at the British during the Mandate era.[159][160] The Jewish insurgency continued throughout 1946 and 1947 despite concerted efforts by the British military and Palestine Police Force to suppress it. British efforts to mediate a negotiated solution with Jewish and Arab representatives also failed as the Jews were unwilling to accept any solution that did not involve a Jewish state and suggested a partition of Palestine into Jewish and Arab states, while the Arabs were adamant that a Jewish state in any part of Palestine was unacceptable and that the only solution was a unified Palestine under Arab rule. In February 1947, the British referred the Palestine issue to the newly formed United Nations.

Jared Kushner is the only man Trump secretly thinks might be better than him because he actually got to sleep with Ivanka while Trump only fantasizes about it. Did you know Trump compared Stormy Daniels to Ivanka moments before cornering her coming out of the bathroom and having sex with her?

"If Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her. Isn’t that terrible? How terrible? Is that terrible?" and "If I weren’t happily married and, ya know, her father …"

"Aides said he talked about Ivanka Trump’s breasts, her backside, and what it might be like to have sex with her, remarks that prompted Kelly to remind the president that Ivanka was his daughter,” writes Miles Taylor, a former chief of staff at the Department of Homeland Security, in his new book, according to Newsweek."

When I moved into my last apartment the previous tenant either never changed his mailing address just let his subscription run out on the address. I subscribed to the Seattle Times after that subscription ended, it is truly a gem in the Emerald City.

He's helping remind us just how much worse the Trump presidency would be.

Kushner and his rich friends want to pillage Gaza for its oil, after an ethnic cleansing forcing out all the native Palestinians into the desert. Most normal Israelis would never see a dime from this operation, it’s just a land and money grab by the elites. Truly disgusting, and he’s rubbing it in our faces in broad daylight, platformed by the university to which his daddy bought him admittance. Gross.

I would be willing to chip in for a one way ticket to send him there.

I can't believe Lex Fridman had him on his podcast. I lost all respect for Lex ever since.

Reminder that to certain economic schools, if it makes profit then it is defined as good. Doesn't matter what else happened, profit is good economically, morally, ethically, all of it.

Slenderman shilling property for blood money

  • The perfect place for a luxury bunker resort - Forget about tropical islands, the elite will soon crave a taste of the adrenaline rush experienced by living on the edge in Gaza's exclusive bunker community.

  • Hellscape tourism - Become an adventurer and witness firsthand the awe-inspiring ruins that have stood the test of time (and bombs). Great for thrill seekers and those who enjoy having their pulse racing just above the danger zone.

  • Invest in the next-gen military complex - With cutting-edge technology and top-notch security measures, this prime location will attract governments looking for state-of-the-art warfare infrastructure.

  • Post-Apocalyptic art district - Gather inspiration from the crumbling remains of once-great civilizations. A haven for edgy painters, photographers, and sculptors seeking to create provocative work.

  • Urban decay chic - Before the bulldozers roll through and developers swoop in, investors can get in early to profit off the trendiest form of real estate - abandoned property. This is the ultimate example of "fixer upper" potential.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Jared Kushner has praised the “very valuable” potential of Gaza’s “waterfront property” and suggested Israel should remove civilians while it “cleans up” the strip.

The former property dealer, married to Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka, made the comments in an interview at Harvard University on 8 March.

His remarks at Harvard gave a hint of the kind of Middle East policy that could be pursued in the event that Trump returns to the White House, including a search for a normalisation deal between Saudi Arabia and Israel.

“Gaza’s waterfront property could be very valuable … if people would focus on building up livelihoods,” Kushner told his interviewer, Harvard’s Middle East Initiative faculty chair, Prof Tarek Masoud.

Asked by Masoud about fears on the part of Arabs in the region that the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, would not allow Palestinians who flee Gaza to return, Kushner paused and then said: “Maybe.”

Responding to a question about whether the Palestinians should have their own state, Kushner described the proposal as “a super bad idea” that “would essentially be rewarding an act of terror”.
