Yeah Israel should have been sanctioned a long time ago for their airspace invasions. If they proceed with a land invasion, they should be embargoed by the world.
Being queer in Russia is worse, that's true. But I don't see the point here. Ukraine has a lot of work left to do. One can't always look at worse places and deflect the criticism. You could've very well mentioned Qatar or Brunei. Doesn't make it any better.
The two-state solution has been dead in the water for decades now. It's just a stupid carrot on a stick to prolong the status quo. Israel has allowed more than 700k settlers to move into the occupied territories. Good luck with your two-state solution. I want to see you get those 700k settlers out of there. Hell, even moving 30k settlers out of Gaza almost ended up in a complete shitshow with parts of the IDF rising against their own government. The only solution is a democratic, secular state where everyone has the same rights, from the river to the sea, and where both Israelis and Palestinians can live in peace. Of course, reparations will have to be paid to Palestinians for the decades of suffering the settler colony has imposed on them, and on top of that, investments to make up for the decades the Palestinians have been deprived of economic possibilities. It won't be perfect, but it surely is better than trying to create a state in which 700k turbo settlers live in, most of which have a military background and surely won't leave their homes just like that.
And it got attacked by a ton of fascists. The videos are horrible. Not only that, but due to security threats the parade had to be limited quite a lot.
AbdullahAl Jamal worked for Al Jazeera and published almost daily articles in English in the "Palestine Chronicle" since the beginning of the war.
From the linked article.
Meanwhile Al Jazeera says that the guy only contributed on a single op-ed in 2019 and that's the extent of it. Here is an archive link to their response https://archive.is/EDOCN. Not only that, but ynet seems to have cut out the part where Al Jazeera says that the guy contributed only on an op-ed in 2019.
Checking an archive from the 9th of June of Al Jazeera's website seems to confirm this information: https://archive.is/RypQP
So, even if this guy had kidnapped/held a hostage, I don't see the connection to Al Jazeera. Certainly not the connection that this article is trying to paint here. And don't forget that the IDF hasn't even confirmed if this guy even held any hostages.
I personally call bullshit. Either that or ynet are too incompetent to prove their claims that this guy wrote for Al Jazeera every day.
Or the title has been written like that on purpose to confuse people and conflate Al Jazeera with whatever this guy was writing god knows where else.
A deal has been on the table for weeks now. A deal that would've released all the hostages and would've caused zero Palestinian deaths. I guess to the average Israeli one of their citizens goes for at least 50 Palestinians though.

Crazy. I never expected to see big Ivy League school names there but here we are. Even the most status quo and US aligned universities are now calling it a genocide.
