Liberal Zionist Aaron Mate has no right to speak against those who advocated for regime change in Syria, as he was one of the biggest advocates of it before his sudden and inexplicable "rebranding." Mate was featured in a documentary "Discordia" which showed him as a "pro-Palestine" liberal Jew, but he ended up making concessions with campus Hillel at the end of it all. Most "anti-Zionist" liberal Jews focus on policing the discourse of the pro-Palestine movement for "antisemitism" than they do supporting the actual cause of Palestine, so it's not out-of-character for Mate. He also interviewed the liberal Zionist Noam Chomsky, who occupied Palestine in a kibbutz in his youth and has strange ties between Ehud Barak and Jeffrey Epstein. Mate spent many years of his career supporting regime change in Syria, so it is hypocritical of him to call out Murtaza Hussain for it. At one point, Murtaza and Aaron were on the same time. Even worse, Mate did it alongside Max Blumenthal, another "rebranded" anti-Syria regime changer. For Max, it is a bit more sinister, since his father Sidney Blumenthal was one of Bill Clinton's top advisors, and he was also a top advisor to Killary Clinton's state department under then president Obama, helping to shape her policy of unleashing terrorists onto Libya and Syria. Children are not responsible for the sins of their fathers, but Max helped cheerlead his father's policies in the alternative media and slandered many decent and reputable journalists and activists, such as Sharmine Narwani and the entire Al-Akhbar English staff, Mother Agnes, and Alison Weir. Max, Aaron, Ben Norton, and others suddenly "rebranded" without any sign of gradual awakening and repentance following the liberation of Aleppo in 2016. Mate also slanders the 9/11 truth movement. Since 9/11 is the lynchpin of Islamophobia and the so-called War on Terror, slandering 9/11 truth makes him a gatekeeper of Zionism and the US empire. His father is the famous Gabor Mate, who constantly spouts the holocaust narrative, another lynchpin of Zionism which has undergone immense academic review and scrutiny — with Jewish historians and academics admitting to the validity of some of the findings of scholars like Dr. Robert Faurrison and the issue of the ballpoint pen used in the latter portions of Anne Frank's diary — and even alleged "survivors" themselves coming out and admitting they lied about their experiences. It's obvious Mate doesn't want Palestine to be liberated. He is a liberal Zionist who just wants a cosmopolitan makeover for the Zionist regime. That is why he supported regime change in Syria, because it would weaken the resistance axis. So who is he to even mention the name of Ansarallah, when Mate himself would be the first to denounce their revolutionary slogan which states "curse be on the Jews" as "antisemitic"? Spare us the hypocrisy, Mate. Just like white liberals are often more racist than their conservative counterparts, his Jewish supremacism may be hidden behind a veil of liberalism, but may be more severe than his rabid, right-wing Zionist counterparts. He's just another gatekeeper who copied from the work of journalists who had been calling out the lies about Syria for years. Mate should never be seen as a friend of Palestine, but an enemy within the gates who seeks to fool us and then confuse us once he gains our trust.

Art Nouveau, Art Deco… these are terms we associate not only with a particular period in history—the turn of the 20th century and the ensuing jazz-age of the 20s—but also with particular locales: Paris, New York, L.A., London, Vienna, or the Jugendstil of Weimar Munich.
