‘Dozens of officers raided the encampment before dawn, arresting and hospitalizing students after pepper-spraying and pushing them to the ground. “I repeatedly said that my family has been killed, and that is why I am here.“
“Nearly every step forward that they took, chemicals were being sprayed in every direction. As students were falling to the floor in agony & in pain, they continued to push forward, beating students with batons”
“So, graduates, alumni, staff members, faculty members, broader community members are all remaining united and are remaining united for the Palestinian cause and for the people of Gaza.”
I think it's cute that the only standard of international justice #Palestine recognizes is the #icj and #Hamas basically told the court to fuck off after it declared Hamas international criminals with #Netanyahu.
‘The doctor killed has been identified as Dr. Osayd Jabarin, a surgeon at Jenin Government Hospital, who was reportedly shot dead on his way to work. About a dozen others were reported injured, including a journalist.’
‘For more, we’re going to Nablus. We’re joined by Motasem Abu Hasan. He’s an actor with The Freedom Theatre in the Jenin refugee camp. He escaped the camp just as the invasion began Tuesday morning.’
‘Yesterday, in one hour, seven people killed by a bullet, by a gun. And soldiers that didn’t see anything just killed, and destroyed everything — electricity, internet, the water tunnel, the street, the buildings.’
Canada’s largest private high school recently organized a genocide solidarity trip in which students cooked for Israeli soldiers. In a sane world, the school’s charitable status would be revoked.
It is rather ironic that Canadian high school students would travel to Israel, and cook a meal for IDF soldiers, just as the IDF is restricting the food supply for Palestinian children, to the point where children are dying. Teaching students to ignore oppression, and reward the oppressors, is quite the achievement. Of course, this is the miniscule version of what our American President is doing. He just rewarded IDF war criminals with 16 billion. #Palestine
Eco's definition of "eternal" is rather idiosyncratic @heretical_i :blobcat_thinkingsmirk:
The roots of Zionism can be traced to the early 17th century. Until relatively recently, it was a gentile concept. Jews didn't start using the term in relation to themselves until very late in the 19th century. Jewish Zionism comes in many forms. The form that spawned Israel dates to that time period.
Fascism was founded during World War I by Italian national syndicalists who drew upon both left-wing organizational tactics and right-wing political views. Italian Fascism gravitated to the right in the early 1920s.
It looks like @EyalL has blocked me. Here is the reply that I was going to send him:
Israeli Zionism (as distinct from other forms of Zionism, Jewish and otherwise) is the notion that someone who claims to be Jewish is entitled to take the home of a Palestinian, solely because they claim to be Jewish. Such injustices precipitated the October 7 atrocities and continue to endanger Jews worldwide.
Abuse of the term "antisemitism" has effectively neutered the concept. Here's a definition for you: https://jerusalemdeclaration.org/
