Hundreds of Jewish activists protested peacefully inside the Capitol on Wednesday, demanding a ceasefire in Gaza. And just as quickly, Capitol Police began arresting them.
The Jewish-led protest involved thousands more protesting outside the Capitol, as well as about two dozen rabbis leading a prayer inside the halls of Congress.
@Free_Press The far right ultra #Zionist#Netanyahu regime does not want cease fire. It has been waiting so long for an excuse to wipe out all the #Palestinian babies, children, and women in #Gaza so that it can officially take over their land and water. This is a textbook case of #Genocide and #EthnicCleansing. Shame on all the Jews who support imperialistic ultra #Zionism aka #Jewish#Nazism.
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on Tuesday accused Azerbaijan of “ethnic cleansing” in Nagorno-Karabakh but said he stood ready to normalise relations with Baku by the end of the year. ...
The German police have continued their ruthless crackdown on Palestine solidarity protests across the country , arresting and assaulting protesters. The crackdown includes repression of people who have chanted pro-Palestinian slogans and worn Palestinian symbols like the keffiyeh scarf. #Germany#Racism#EthnicCleansing#Support#Assault#Dissent
If you won't listen to Jews who are not Israeli claim that what #Israel is doing is genocide and #EthnicCleansing, will you listen to an Israeli who is an expert on the #Holocaust plainly call it as it is?
Its the duty of every humane government around the world to move to impose #sanctions on Israel to stop this #genocide immediately!
“ALLEGED IRAN ROLE IN ISRAEL ATTACK ECHOES BOGUS IRAQ WMD CLAIMS: Israeli and U.S. officials acknowledge there is no proof that Iran directed last weekend’s deadly Hamas attack.”
“It’s possible that evidence of Iranian sponsorship exists and simply hasn’t emerged yet, but that reasoning echoes the Iraq WMD imbroglio. “If the Israeli government had any evidence at all of direct Iranian involvement in the Hamas attack, it is very likely that Israel would let the world know about that,” Paul Pillar, a former chief analyst at the CIA’s counterterrorism center, told The Intercept.
According to Pillar, Hamas had plenty of incentive to conduct the operation on its own, including acquiring hostages as bargaining chips to free Palestinian prisoners and also to torpedo the Saudi–Israel normalization deal being pursued by the Biden administration.”
Guardian, 12pm: "Meirav Eilon Shahar, Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations and international organisations in Geneva, has insisted that Israel is complying with international humanitarian law"
Guardian, 3pm: "Israeli airstrikes hit northern Gaza as Palestinians try to leave"
Holocaust survivor Gabor Mate speaks in defense of Palestine--and of the Jewish people in Israel and around the world who defend Palestinians.
"that in order to make this Jewish dream a reality we had to visit a nightmare on the local population...there was no land without a people, there were people living there for hundreds of years...some Palestinians may be descendants of ancient Jews."
Call to action: contact your electeds, demand an end to Israel's bombing of Gaza.
An offer/order by Israel to evacuate hospitals is meaningless when there's no safe or guaranteed route or destination to do so; same with giving Palestinians in Gaza water without electricity to pump it where it's needed: it's a cover for the unmitigated cruelty and horror of #Genocide/ #EthnicCleansing
This is why it matters that mainstream media is complicit in the demonization of Palestinians and the normalization of #EthnicCleansing and #Genocide being carried out by Israel in Gaza: it carries over to other parts of the world--the same way antisemitism does, and it too translates into violence everywhere.
CW: murder of a child
He's white, they're Brown = no mugshot.
Also, get ready for the "poor old man is mentally ill" apologia. It's coming.
I don't know where else to find this important video; Daniel Maté, the son of the man speaking in the video I linked at the top of the thread, grapples with the realities of Israel's genocidal actions against the Palestinians in Gaza.
You’re conveniently forgetting that, over the past 75+ years, Israel has been responsible for the murder of thousands of Palestinian children! THOUSANDS!!!!!
Children are murdered, imprisoned & tortured almost every day in the West Bank! They are dying by the hundred now in the Gaza genocide!
Are Palestinian children’s’ lives any less precious than Israeli children’s’ lives? You seem to think they are!
Similarly, when you refer to members of Hamas as “animals”, is that because you regard them as “Untermensch”? Fascists like like Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben-Gvir also refer to Palestinians as “animals”. Seems like you agree with them!
