Some #Israelis think they "must" #vandalize#aid#convoys, destroying food & medical supplies, because starving civilians in #Gaza would surely bring hostages home.
»“We would prefer that we don’t have to do the blockages, honestly,” Ariel said.
“I don’t like ransacking things. It’s not one of my favourite hobbies. But we prefer that to the death of our friends and family, which is what happens the longer this war drags on."«
The #israelis, the #americans and other backers of the #israeli religious war in #gaza let the world forget that the #icj in July 2004 referred in its ruling to Art. 51 of the #un#charter which you can read in the second text image in full with comment.
We would add:
Israelis have been a war belligerent since 1967 as they never lifted the declaration of war, and never signed peace with the country it is occupying: #palestine
Peace would also mean to make an end to the occupation.
Absolutely appalling scenes from #Harvard. #Jewish students being harassed. While protesting against the slaughter of civilians by #Israel in #palestine is justified. The usual crap of threats against those who do not agree and calling for harm to the #USA is not acceptable. Also any support for #hamas should result in those doing so being taken away. Hamas have killed many of their own people, and knew exactly what they were doing when they killed so many innocent #Israelis.
Calling protesters "Pro-Hamas", because they protest the genocidal slaughtering of #Palestinians in #Gaza by #Israelis, is like calling Americans who fought in WWII, "pro-communist". Nazis at the time were saying they were fighting "Jewish Bolshevik sub-humans".
Oh, wait!… That's what Trump calls the Democrats now: "communist thugs".
Lyndon Johnson, one of the most accomplished POTUS, was forced to withdraw from the presidential race in '68 and never was reelected. Wonder why…
"Like millions of #Israelis, I was also kept ignorant by the state and its educational system on purpose. However, once you unlearn #Zionist propaganda, there is no going back; the world makes so much more sense, and it feels similar to what I have heard of those who escaped a cult."

‘For a Just Peace Enabling #Israelis and Palestinians to Co-Exist with Mutual Respect’
Appeal by African Leader #GraçaMachel, widow of #NelsonMandela
article from [#ProjectSyndicate, a magazine in South Africa. With an introduction by W-O]
"Thousands of #Israelis took to the streets in demonstrations against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s far-right government, demanding fresh #elections...
Demonstrators carried torches and posters denouncing #Netanyahu, who is also facing pressure from allies, including the #UnitedStates, over Israel’s punishing military campaign in #Gaza...
"6 April 1994, when a #Palestinian man, dispatched by one of the leaders of Hamas’s armed wing, blew himself up at a bus stop in the northern Israeli city of Afula, killing eight #israelis It was expressly an act of vengeance in response to the massacre of 29 worshippers at the Ibrahimi mosque, carried out two months earlier by an Israeli extremist hoping to derail peace talks between the Israeli government and the #PLO." @palestine @israel #history #civilwar #war https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/21/what-is-the-real-hamas
"A few members of the Commons #foreignaffairscommittee sat in a modest room & took evidence from #Israelis & #Palestinians about how #Britain might actually do something useful to end the bloodshed. The discussion was serious & practical – and delivered precisely zero attention or political benefit to those involved."
When super religious chauvinistic Jews try to tell you that all wars are the fault of women and queers... Don't forget to be Jewish queer and hot :)

#BennyMorris has become an advocate of ethnic cleansing. In an interview in #Haaretz, Morris had this to say:
"Ben-Gurion was right … Without the uprooting of the Palestinians, a
Jewish state would not have arisen here … There are circumstances in
history that justify ethnic cleansing. I know that this term is completely
negative in the discourse of the 21st century, but when the choice is
between ethnic cleansing and genocide … I prefer ethnic cleansing. "
Advocating old and new Zionist colonial methods, Morris (echoing demands by Israeli politicians and ministers) threatens the
Palestinians with another Nakba.
A excerpt from The #Palestine Nakba, by Nur Masalha.
As if anyone needed proof of what the #Israelis were doing.
Prominent #Israelis Demand End to Calls for Outright #Genocide From Top Officials
"When it comes to the statements of #Jews instigating mass deportation and even genocide—the legal adviser to the government, the state attorney, and the entire prosecution system are silent," wrote a group of prominent Israelis.
"Netanyahu habe in der nicht-öffentlichen Sitzung gestern zudem erklärt, das Osloer Friedensabkommen mit den Palästinensern in den 1990er-Jahren sei "eine Erbsünde" gewesen."
Ich hoffe für die Sicherheit der #Israelis dass sie #Netanyahu schleunigst davon jagen🤬. Er und seine rechtsextreme Regierung haben kein Interesse am Frieden. Wie auch die #Hamas.
Check out this WSJ column about a poll re: the chant "from the river to the sea."
47% of surveyed US students didn't know which river or sea. (Guesses included the Nile and the Caribbean.)
67.8% who backed the chant changed their minds after learning a few facts: like the river is the Jordan, the sea is the Mediterranean, and the chant calls for the expulsion or annihilation of Israelis.
Most students liked the two-state solution now rejected by most #Israelis and #palestinians.
"Families of #Israelis being held #hostage by #Hamas were reprimanded by representatives of the #RedCross in a meeting earlier this week, with the Red Cross telling one family they need to "think about the #Palestinian side," KAN reported on Thursday night."
To remind you: only 4% of #Israelis trust #Netanyahu. Stop blaming them for his crimes. This was all due to his policies, directly and indirectly, and they know it. They tried to get rid of him and failed. He deliberately strengthened #Hamas. Look how bouncy and ebullient he was when he started the bombings. They know he's a monster. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2seEhSbc7KA
Second, we are struggling against the worst government #Israel has ever had. More Israelis than ever believe that #BenjaminNetanyahu|'s travesty of a cabinet must go. (...)
Our third war, shoulder to shoulder with #Jews and #Humanists worldwide, is against #Antisemitism, now clearly bonded with burning hatred of Israel."
