Urgent: The Secretary-General of the United Nations: We condemn the practices of “Israel” that led to the martyrdom of dozens of innocent people who were searching for shelter, and there is no safe place in #Gaza, and this horror must stop.
Warum kann man das Vorgehen der #IDF in #Gaza / #Rafah nicht einfach so verurteilen, wenn man denn unbedingt will, ohne das Wort „#Genozid“ zu sinnentleeren?
Demnächst dann in der Schule:
„Boah, die Matheklausur war voll Genozid, ey!“
Fussballfans:
„Das Fussball Derby mit dem 4:0? Krasser Tor-Genozid!“
Bahnkunden:
„Die Bahn hatte genozidale 5h Verspätung!“
Social Media User:
„Der hat mich beleidigt! Das ist kein Shirstorm mehr, das ist schon Social-Media-Genozid!!“
Zwar hat die Hamas einem Abkommen mit Israel zugestimmt - doch offenbar kaum erfüllbare Forderungen hinzugefügt. Deshalb rückt die Armee weiter auf Teile von Rafah vor. Die UN und die USA warnen indes vor einer Großoffensive.
A statement from an emergency worker in Rafah:
2/2
"Most of the bodies were charred and burned, while the injured people lost limbs and suffered other injuries due to the use of internationally prohibited weapons that caused the massive fire which erupted. We pulled out approx 50 people and injured people from the area and transported them to field hospitals after official hospitals were forced to evacuate in an attempt to destroy the health system in the Rafah area”
Israel just bombed a tent city full of #refugees who fled North #Gaza for #Rafah on the #IDF's orders.
Horrifying photos show families frantically rummaging through the carnage for the limbs of their family members. I won't reproduce them here, but they can be found on the bird site from @gazanotifications
They are murdering poor people trapped in a concentration camp, in the places they were told to flee for safety. They are killing impoverished, innocent, starving Palestinians, mostly under 30, with nowhere else to go.
This brutality is unparalleled in my lifetime. All studies show that Israel is in a class of its own, outdoing the Dresden bombings by a landslide. Saying this is not antisemitic: it is your duty, whoever you are.
I am #Jewish: spiritually, scholarly, and Litvak Ashkenazi. It's not antisemitic for me, OR ANY NON-JEW to say. In fact, its every human's duty to call for this bloodshed to cease IMMEDIATELY, and to even call for this genocidal Zionist occupation to be dismantled before there is any more blood shed. Nothing keeps my heart beating like my Arab and Muslim comrades speaking out against this barabarism every day. All while facing the harshest consequences of anyone! This ugliness would quite literally drive me to kill myself if I didn't know so many people who are so brave.
I have been doing activism in Palestine since 2012, both boots-on-the-ground defense of protestors, and teaching programming. These are not antisemites; my Palestinian friends are as close to me as any others. And I have had 6 students murdered in Gaza in 120 days. All the others are starving, fleeing from tent city to tent city, trying to survive the most hellish circumstances of drone democide any people have ever witnessed in the history of humanity. Thats a simple fact now.
If you are a goy and claim to support this in our name, WE WILL REMEMBER. The vast majority of #Jews outside of Israel who are under 40 years old are anti-Zionists today. All the fastest growing Jewish organizations of the past decade are anti-Zionist. And we will not forget those who cheered on a 21st century #Holocaust while evoking the memory of our family members killed by Nazi #Germany. Especially not the #Germans, who have been by far the worst inciters and supporters of genocide outside of #Israel.
The White House on Tuesday indicated an Israeli strike that killed dozens of Palestinians in Rafah did not cross a “red line” that would lead to a change in U.S. policy....
Doctors Without Borders said that the intensification of the onslaught by Israeli forces on #Rafah has forced it to stop providing lifesaving care at Rafah Indonesian Field hospital as of 12 May.
Obscene, and the World will not forget this.
The Pariah state will drag the world into it's conflicts, and because we're not of "gods chosen" the regime will see us all as expendable.
Religious extremists with nuclear weapons.....as an Atheist I am concerned.
"While Washington and the occupiers insist on presenting an image of a debate on whether or not to carry out operations in #Rafah, his children are being killed by Israeli attacks on the 197th day of the genocide."
Israel has increased the intensity of it's attacks against #Gaza, from north to the south, Israeli planes, tanks, artillery and navy bombing the already unhabitable Gaza.
#Biden seems to have given Israel the green light to "finish the job" by their veto at #UN and handing over another $1B worth of military equipment and bombs.
Yesterday, Aaron Bushnell, an active-duty member of the Air Force and an anarchist, set fire to himself in front of the Israeli embassy in #DC, in what they called an "extreme act of protest" against the ongoing genocide and ethnic-cleansing of #Gaza by the state of Israel.
Bushnell was involved in various mutual aid projects.
Already, far-Right grifters and pundits have attacked his anarchist beliefs as signs of him being mentally "disturbed."
Bushnell's death comes as Israel prepares to invade #Rafah, where over a million Palestinian refugees have been pushed into tent cities.
Israel bombed Rafah in southern Gaza over 60 times in 48 hours, ignoring the International Court of Justice orders to stop its military operations there.
Israel bombed displaced Palestinians in tents, killing over 30 Palestinians, including children.
The scenes coming out of Rafah are horrific, resembling a massacre.
Israel’s Willing Executioners - Read by Eunice Wong
Forced to flee, once again, after more than half of Gaza's population took sanctuary in Rafah.
"And when you run in terror to one part of Gaza we will make you turn around & run to another. Trapped in a labyrinth of death. Back and forth. Up and down. Side to side. Six. Seven. Eight times. We toy with you like mice in a trap. Then we deport you so you can never return. Or we kill you."
《 A world-historic confrontation is now unfolding as #SouthAfrica exhorts the #ICJ to deliver an emergency ruling on the imminent #genocide in #Rafah. It's South Africa demanding an equal place under the sun for the world's colored peoples versus #Israel holding fast to a sacrosanct principle of the #Jewish State, "Schwarzes need not apply." 》
— Dr. Norman Finklestein #gaza
Israel drops leaflets over Gaza ordering people to move away to "safer" areas, it's all a bit surreal because who will feed them there, how safe will it be, when can they return etcetera ? #gaza#israel#hamas#rafah
