:thaenkin: Apprennez a mieux cibler les Htags.

Parce que si vous mettez # "Boyccot" sur un post qui ne parle par de marques vous polluer les posts qui parlent spécifiquement des Boycotts.

🤚🏼 Là le sujet est la mort de militaires israëliens, les hastags parlant d' Apartheid ou de Jeux Olympiques et même de Désinformations ne sont pas approprié pour ce post.

Il encombre les posts qui parleront spécifiquement de ses sujets.

“Israeli Politician Quotes Hitler to Argue for Resettlement of Gaza: ‘In what kind of society can one openly advocate policies modeled on Hitler's conduct? In a society that feels complete impunity due to America's protection,’ one foreign policy expert said.”

“Nero's Guests”

by Chris Hedges in The Chris Hedges Report on Substack

“By the time Israel achieves its decimation of Gaza — Israel is talking about months of warfare that will continue at least until the end of this year — it will have signed its own death sentence. Its facade of civility, its supposed vaunted respect for the rule of law and democracy, its mythical story of the courageous Israeli military and miraculous birth of the Jewish nation – which it successfully sold to its western audiences – will lie in ash heaps. Israel’s social capital will be spent. It will be revealed as the ugly, repressive, hate-filled apartheid regime it always has been, alienating younger generations of American Jews. Its patron, the United States, as new generations come into power, will distance itself from Israel. Its popular support will come from reactionary Zionists and America’s Christianized fascists who see Israel’s domination of ancient Biblical land as a harbinger of the Second Coming and in its subjugation of Arabs a kindred racism and celebration of white supremacy.”

“Unpacking Blinken’s lies on the Gaza : After the US secretary of state’s misleading press conference on Wednesday in Doha, there is a need to correct the record.”

by Mohamad Elmasry, Professor in the Media Studies program at the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies in Al Jazeera English

@palestine @israel
@aljazeerarss

“That would lie is not surprising. Indeed, in the context of Israel, the Palestinians, and Gaza, the administration has a history of untruths.

But the sheer amount of that Blinken was able to pack into a short press conference is nonetheless astonishing.

Recent diplomatic manoeuvring isn’t likely to end the war on Gaza, but it will serve Biden’s domestic aims.

At the end of all this posturing, Biden will be able to tell that he tried his best to end the war but that Hamas didn’t allow him to.”
