From a 93 year old (old enough to have lived through the times of the Holocaust and the founding of Israel) Jewish Australian:
"The impression I formed then, and which has been confirmed by subsequent events is that there was and is a deep, shared psychosocial illness infecting Israel but not Jews more generally."
...
"Let’s not confuse and generalise the attitude I and others have identified as underlying the conflict between Israel and Palestine with being anti-Semitic. This blurring of a clear boundary has been used inappropriately and misleadingly by many."
...
"... the human slaughter in Gaza and the enormous waste of resources on armaments to further that genocide could be stopped by refusing any more aid to Israel." https://johnmenadue.com/israel-palestine-my-personal-experience-and-conversion/ #Israel #Palestine #genocide #EthnicCleansing #CrimesAgainstHumanity #Zionism #hasbara #propaganda @palestine @israel
I'm so fed up with mods falling for the #aipac "holocaust inversion" bullshit, I'm going to start reporting all #Israel apologist posts as "supporting violent ideologies."
@pinkdrunkenelephants@GM7077@israel@palestine@figstick The American people so have a choice btw: 2 genocides or 4. It would be silly to blame them for the 2 they have no choice not to vote for. It would be completely alright to blame them for the other 2, if the election decides they should occur. And it would be downright evil to suggest that voting for 4 by default is better than voting for 2 by active action.
My brother was arrested almost 10 years ago now and the Salem New Hampshire police applied for a search warrant for his phone, but they didn’t wait for it they went through it first. They did obtain the search warrant, but he filed a lawsuit because they went through the phone first. He was a financial advisor And he was concerned that they were able to get into his Fidelity stuff and see communications with clients.
They ended up paying him $30,000. They were really mad about it he thought they were gang stalking him after.
Learning that police are often sent to Israel for training closes the circuit on this horror show. I’d take every cop trained that way and send them to a cult deprogrammer.
Remembering the ethnic cleansing, massacres and Zionist terrorism that lead to the creation of #Israel which remains to this day a pariah state and a plague on the Middle East and the world.
During his intense interview with journalist Yama Wolasmal, Israeli Government Spokesman David Mencer highlighted that "Jews face an unreasonable burden of proof" regarding the journalist's request for evidence of Israeli bombings of hospitals in #Gaza.
The "civilized world". The hubris of the Western culture to still believe they are the only ones civilized. As if centuries of Roman Empire, Omeyad and Abbasid Califate, Ottoman Empire, that ruled over the Levant and Gaza, wasn't "civilization".
It's probably best not to trust any Israeli voices on the state of things in #Israel or #Gaza. Even this Israeli "scholar," who admits that Israelis are almost unanimously pro-genocide, is pushing the "sexual violence" lie about Oct. 7.
#Palestine / Right-wing Israeli ministers call to reoccupy Gaza and push for the transfer of Palestinians out of the Gaza Strip
Thousands of Israelis joined a march on the so called Israeli “Independence Day”, calling for resettling the Gaza Strip and facilitating the transfer of Palestinians from Gaza. Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir spoke at the march advocating resettling Gaza with Israeli forces and settlers.
Ben-Gvir said the "true solution" is for Israel to "return to Gaza now" and to "encourage what he calls “voluntary emigration" of Gazans, concluding "It is moral!" An MK from the Religious Zionism party blamed the 2005 Israeli withdrawal from Gaza for recent violence, stating "The responsibility for the October 7 massacre lies with those who expelled the Jews from Gush Katif."
"As the descendant of European #jews I was raised in a particularly unforgiving moral environment when it came to the topic of bearing responsibility for ethnic cleansing," wrote Maj. Harrison Mann.
