Ben & Jerry's says that the United States was stolen from the Indians so we need to give the land back to the Indians. How about Ben and Jerry's start by turning over the ownership of their factories to the native Indians.

Khazarian "Israel" stole Palestinian land from the indigenous Palestinians.

Free Palestine, and return the native Palestinian people who are in exile.

Ben and Jerry actually boycotted Israel even though doing so is illegal in the US. It was pretty based of them. But this is kind of stupid

    Muslims are commanded by the Quran to conquer the entire planet, and that is a fact.

    I think you might be confused.

    You're talking about the Babylonian (Jewish) Talmud, right?

      Well I'm going to ask you to take that up with my kind Muslim brothers that told me that when Islam controls an area that no muslim will ever be charged or convicted or jailed for killing a non-muslim.

      Source?

      This reminds me of the immunity that Israelis have when dealing with the indigenous population. They shoot children with impunity.

      It sounds like your confused about reality vs. something your friends might have said.

          the truth is that Muslims will not stop until they have conquered Israel and Jerusalem and thrown the Jewish people into prison or kill them..

          You're confusing Muslims for the invading occupiers.

          Are you familiar with Eretz Israel. The greater Israel project? Basically it's Israeli occupancy of it's neighbors.

          Here's what it looks like on a map.

          Here's an old Irgun political poster..

          It's the same region.

            Who destabilized their countries?

            Israel, for their Eretz Israel Project.

            Zionism has taken control of the French govt. It's all over Europe.

            But people are waking up. We live in interesting times.

                Moslems are just pawns of the jews. As Barbara Specter pointed out, "jews will play a leading role in flooding Europe with moslem shitskins." (slightly paraphrased for clarity)

                The trouble with the assumption that destroying Israel will cure the jew problem is that few of the "150 'men' who own and operate the world" actually live in Israel. Totally different story if all jews were concentrated into that outpost, but they live and shapeshift among us.

                Point being, moslems would just go back to fighting over which interpretation of the diary is the most violent without the jews weaponizing them into our countries.

                    conquering Israel is like fulfilling Quranic Talmudic prophecy.

                      Have you ever stepped foot inside of a masjid Mr bombadil?

                      Are you familiar with the USS LIBERTY when Israel attacked the US?

                      Did you know that mossad and the CIA were responsible for 9/11, which destabilized the middle east, and created the refuge problem?

                      You're masjid foolishness is bad comedy.
                      It's weak hasbara (AKA Israeli propaganda).

                      1+1= Zionists did 9/11. They did it for Israel.

                          Thank you, that's a great video. Although it's mostly valuable from a literary-critical perspective and not so much from a theological one. Christians admit that the Bible was written and even edited by many different people, yet it is seen as the word of God because divine inspiration is supposed to have been involved in the process of composing it and assembling it. Dr. Daniel Brubaker doesn't consider that the same could be true for the Qur'an. He's jumping to conclusions when he states that he's disproved divine origins of the Qur'an.

                          No, Muslims believe the Quran is the unaltered word of God and was literally dictated to Mohammed by God word for word.

                          This is the main reason Islam is such a big problem in the world, most Muslims are just plain stupid.

                          They got in a lot of trouble for trying to boycott Israel, which is actually illegal in the US. Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) against Israel is illegal in the US.

                          Ben & Jerry's are obviously correct. An argument about their factories doesn't matter because what's at issue is the land on which the factories sit, not the factories. Native Indian control of that land might not be a problem. Regardless, Ben & Jerry's continue to make wonderful comments like this. Good on them.

                              I don't usually comment on these types of news stories for same reason I won't argue with a psychotic angry wife = nothing good will ever ever come from it. I like the quote I have needed in my life quite a numbers of times = a mechanic, electrician, plumber, doctor/nurse and other licensed professionals. Never once in my life have I needed a woke business boss, a politician or celebrity. Not. Once. I have not bought ANY ice cream likely now for more than 30 years so opinions of these hippies is of no concern.

                              Impressive achievement. Because sugar? You make your own? It's very cold in your location?

                              It's the sugar for me, although I did buy ice cream either last year or the year before. If you run out of half and half or cream for your coffee/tea, vanilla ice cream is a great substitute. Way too much sugar though.

                                  There's nothing for 'virtue signaling', but the non-corrupted version is necessary for a society. Signaling you're not going to randomly murder someone or violate other accepted norms can be considered a virtue in most societies. Only becomes a problem when the norms get distorted and ridiculous.

                                    When you were in school, you were incorrectly taught to call them 'Indians'.

                                    Unfortunately, this idiotic error keeps being perpetuated, even being taught is school(!), though it's clearly a misnomer, i.e. it's wrong.

                                    The Native Americans, Ethnic Americans, First Nation Americans, American-Americans, etc. are the only fully real Americans for f*ck's sake!

                                    They're the only ones for whom America is, since prehistoric times(!), their ancestral homeland, with everybody else showing up during the past few centuries and correctly referred to as European-Americans, Asian-Americans, African-Americans, etc.

                                    The only real, American-American, Americans are those whom you call ... 'Indians'!?

                                    Though you can choose from any number of more or less accurate names for them, the one thing that these Ethnic-Americans are definitively not is ... 'Indians', who are from ... surprise, surprise(!) ... India.

                                                          To be fair to the Lakota the entire situation with Mt. Rushmore being built and the US government just up and ignoring their treaty with them is pretty indefensible. But that's all history.

                                                          It is very convenient for Ben & Jerry's to make the claim that land they don't own in the middle of nowhere go back to the Indians. But as you say if they are really committed to it they should start by returning the land they own to whomever it was "stolen from" as I am fairly sure they are an East Coast based company and the Indians out there basically got conquered and exiled.

                                                          Also point against the Lakota, I have sympathy to the "they rammed through a government project on our holy mountain" argument, right up until the point they start blowing up a different mountain right next door to build a giant indian statue, nothing against the statue I think it is cool, but it totally sinks that argument of theirs.

                                                          It's Unilever, Ben & Jerry was acquired as a brand.

                                                            You will be amazed to check how many brands they have and how influential they can be when selling poison in various forms: ice cream, detergents, palm oil, etc.

                                                            This country wasn't stolen, it wasn't even conquered, it was settled. Some wildlife got displaced in the process, and this included the stone-aged native peoples that eked out a living here.

                                                            which indians ? whichever ones you chose, they took their land from some other tribe that was there before them

                                                            ben & jerry could have sold off their fat mill operations long ago and spent it all on a bunch of indian college grants. but strangely they never did any such.

                                                            Maybe someday the Chinese or Space Aliens will conquer the USA and take the land. It’s how it works. Until then, thanks for the gorgeous countryside.
