I really don't know how to respond to this anymore. Almost all western governments are colluding with Israel to exterminate the #Palestinians. #gaza#onestate#genocide
Special shame on #germany. You should know better.
"History shows that in a settler-native conflict, the cycle of violence may end with the disappearance of the settler or the disappearance of the native. The alternative to these extreme scenarios lies in the ability of the settling group to change, stop the colonization processes and build an egalitarian society."
"Palestinians across the West Bank describe how Israeli settlers, with military backing, are intensifying their takeover of land for illegal construction."
Regarding Palestine and Israel, beginning to think that even a two state solution will never work. Isrelis appear to want all Palestinians gone and Palestinians seem to believe that US and Israel would never allow peaceful borders.
In fact only way it would work is a 3 state solution of Gaza plus parts of South Israel and Sinai, Isreal, and a Palestinean state that stretches from the Golan Heights to the current West bank (about 200 km wide strip).
All would have to be enforced by 100k UN soldiers who faced both ways.
@nilsskirnir This is why some say the only just path forward is a more radical one: the #OneState solution. That is, everyone who lives in Israel-Palestine is to become an equal citizen with an equal vote and equal rights in a state with a unitary parliamentary authority (i.e. more-or-less the current status quo, but with apartheid dismantled).
The reason that is considered off-the-table is that Israel has always made it very clear that its commitment is first and foremost to a Jewish #ethnostate and only secondarily to anything approximating #LiberalDemocracy. And the one-state approach would mean Jews would become a minority.
The even more radical approach is the no-state solution...
#UNICEF: “This year has been the deadliest year on record for children in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, with conflict-related violence reaching unprecedented levels.
“83 children have been killed in the past twelve weeks – more than double the number of children killed in all of 2022, amid increased military and law enforcement operations. More than 576 have been injured and others have reportedly been detained. Furthermore, the West Bank has been heavily affected by movement and access restrictions."
#WestBank, occupied #Palestine:
'The neighbourhood has now become completely isolated from the town, without services, medical centres, or even access to schools'
