Why I don't talk about the Israeli hostages - One Small Detail

#gaza #israel #palestine


It is completely normal politics in #Israel today to be openly rejoicing the burning of #Gaza and its people.

Dozens of civilians are dead in the videos. We can see it all. Charred bodies of men and women, headless babies. The screams of Palestinians being burned alive. Israelis are watching these videos and celebrating.

They’re all available on Twitter. I won’t share them. #Palestine


International Criminal Court, last Monday: seeks arrest warrants for Benjamin #Netanyahu and Yoav #Gallant for criminal responsibility in starvation of civilians and crimes against humanity.

International Court of Justice, Friday: “Israel must immediately halt its military offensive and any other action in Rafah which may inflict on the Palestinian group in #Gaza conditions of life that could bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part”

#Israel, yesterday: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2024/5/27/israels-war-on-gaza-live-news-35-killed-in-rafah-tent-bombings


I just can’t comprehend how one can look at footage of what #Israel just did in #Rafah #Gaza overnight and not conclude that there js something fundamentally broken about Israelis. And yes, there are obviously exceptions here, very noble ones. I’ve platformed a number of them on my podcast, but even they say that they are a rare voice, that most Jewish Israelis around them are either enthusiastic about the genocide or indifferent about its victims.

I just read this talk by @Mer__edith - I had not realised how deeply AI technology is supporting the Israeli genocide of the Palestinians.

“Instead of serving ads, Lavender automatically puts people on a kill list based on the likeness of their surveillance data patterns to the data patterns of purported militants – a process that we know, as experts, is hugely inaccurate. Here we have the AI-driven logic of ad targeting, but for killing.”

"Israel is brazenly flouting an order of a court it appeared before. It is indiscriminately killing civilians seeking refuge. This is a flagrant violation of the rule of law and a war crime. It is time the international community put sanctions on Israel as it did to South Africa."

Analysis

Reed Brody, former war-crimes prosecutor, on why this week's ICJ ruling on Israel matters

#ReedBrody #ICJ #Israel #Gaza ..


"Hamas’s massacre of about 1,200 people last October was appalling, criminal and unforgivable – and must and will be punished. It does not justify Israel’s disproportionate, illegal and indiscriminately lethal response in Gaza."

World Court orders Israel to halt assault on Gaza's #Rafah


Judges at the top United Nations court ordered Israel on Friday to immediately halt its military assault on the southern Gaza city of Rafah, in a landmark emergency ruling in South Africa's case accusing Israel of genocide.
While the International Court of Justice, or World Court, has no means to enforce its orders, the case was a stark sign of Israel's global isolation over its campaign in Gaza, particularly since it began its offensive against Rafah this month against the pleas of its closest ally the United States.
Judge Nawaf Salam, president of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) presides over the International Court of Justice ( #ICJ), during a ruling on South Africa's request to order a halt to Israel's Rafah offensive in Gaza as part of a larger case brought before the #Hague-based court by #SouthAfrica.

Content warning: ICJ orders Israel to immediately end its offensive on Rafah


@IDF is #ISIS : A photo of an IDF soldier inside al-Aqsa University in Gaza City, with books burning behind him, has been circulating on social media around the world in the last few hours and has sparked outrage.


There's nothing much to add to what this picture shows and what it says about #IDF.

They act exactly like the acts of the Mongolians, the Taliban and the ISIS. They destroy knowledge and history m they thrive in denying their enemies the ability to learn and to remember.

But the western liberals and disgusting people who blindly support this monstrous colonialist creation of the mixture of nationalism, white supremacy and religious fanaticism just like the Nazis back in 1930s.

This is just yet another example of the rottenness of the basics foundation of the Zionism and it's ongoing crimes against the Palestinians and anyone around the world who oppose their extremist ideology and acts.

BREAKING NEWS 🚨

Israel ordered to immediately halt Rafah offensive by top U.N. court

Israel is unlikely to comply with the order, which the top United Nations court has no power to enforce, but the landmark ruling will pile pressure on the increasingly isolated U.S. ally.

The level of ingenuity from protesters is amazing!

During US Secretary of State Antony Blinken's testimony before the House Committee on Appropriations, a protester used sign language to denounce him as a butcher committing genocide in Gaza. Despite the risk of being removed by security, she managed to convey her message letter by letter for over 2 hours.

While many fake stories about Israelis have dominated western media, real footage of Palestinians suffering through a genocide hardly makes it beyond social media. So it's up to us to share, and share widely.

This little girl is fleeing with her mother and little brother after their home was bombed today by the IOF using US bombs.

The Marsh family strikes again...

If you don't know them, they are a family from the UK who to my knowledge started making music videos during the pandemic, when they were locked up in lockdowns. (Ha...) There are a few others like them, but the Marsh family is big (two parents, two daughters, two sons) and they are all making music.

The family is famous for making their own lyrics to known songs, mostly responding to current events or trends. This is at least the second song dedicated to Suella Braverman, the former UK home secretary. She tried to get some publicity by trying to "expose" protesters against the killing of Palestinians (accompanied by GB News, the Fox News equivalent of the UK), but was met by a wall of silence - nobody spoke to her. Hence this song.

If you don't know the Marsh family, definitely look up their other songs!

Today in Labor History May 22, 1968: New York police broke through the barricades at Columbia University, busting the student occupations there. As a result, 998 were arrested and over 200 injured. Students were demanding a black studies program and an end to military recruitment and ROTC on campus. Sound familiar? However, today’s student protests are bringing back the worst of 1960s-‘70s police brutality and university intolerance for Free Speech along with McCarthy era firing, blacklisting and doxing of academics for the crime of criticizing the Israeli government, under bogus claims of antisemitism.

If the use of civilians as human shields is a war crime, then it's a war crime for both.

Can we agree that Israel should be held to a higher standard?

It's not that long ago that the British establishment would equate being Irish with being in the IRA, so when Israel equates Palestine with Hamas in an attempt to stop Ireland from recognising the state of Palestine it only reinforces the importance of that recognition.

The Irish government is doing the right thing today and will be seen to be on the right side of history.
