the dual loyalty trope is very real and extremely dangerous. but also, if a jewish organization in the US or another diaspora country literally has an active relationship with Israel or the Israeli military, calling that out is not the dual loyalty trope in action….

So to recap—Israel:
•Illegally spied on ICC for 9 years
•Threatened ICC prosecutor Khan
•Killed a story by Haaretz on the illegal spying by having Mossad threaten the Haaretz journalist with torture
•Bans journalists in Gaza and has killed 100+ journalists

BEHOLD: "The only democracy in the Middle East"

Gentiles who engage with my criticism of Jewish community (particularly around trans issues) but don’t engage with my criticism of gentiles around antisemitism: I see you, and I’m not happy

Protesting against Israel’s existence as a Jewish state IS NOT THE SAME as protesting against Jewish people.

There are definitely antisemitic forms of the “destroy Israel” position, but a lot of them are aligned with wanting a world without any states at all, and are not singling out Israel in particular and are not inherently antisemitic.

Protesting against Jewish people’s — all Jewish people’s — right to return to our homeland, or to live freely, is antisemitic. But protesting against a nation state is not the same as this.

It’s valid to protest more than just “Netanyahu” or “the current administration”.

There’s a lot of cis (incl queer) Jewish people who believe people shouldn’t tolerate antisemitism of their peers and friendships, but completely are just willing to forgive and forget over and over when it comes to transmisia and transmisogyny

I see you. And I don’t like you

>"The ever-scheming European imperialists wisely placed Israel where she could geographically divide the Arab world, infiltrate and sow the seed of dissension among African leaders and also divide the Africans against the Asians," he wrote.

this is why i have little patience for the theory that there is a cabal of jews controlling america which is why america keeps supporting israel against its self-interest

the facts can be fully explained without any such hypothesis

this support is not against the american hegemon's self-interest at all

These days I keep coming back to the moment in 2004, when during the second Iraq war I was in the offices of Newsweek about to go on my first assignment for them in Israel and Palestine. It was still in the times when you got paid for photojournalism. I was going to cover some of the protests around Shik Jarah village with a large format camera.

During the visit I passed a large table full of stacks of papers. Many piles where rather large. The table was full of these stacks and the table was a very large one. A long conference table. Each piece of paper was a print of a photograph.

These photos where the photos received THAT DAY from Iraq. Most of these pieces of paper that contained prints of the photographs contained images of dead bodies. So many dead bodies, just from that day. Images that the American public has not seen. Not on that day and still not to this day. The American war on terror killed about 4.5 million people. The images of the dead never made it to the public consciousness. I am glad that today, images from death toll in Gaza are reaching the public. I am glad you get to see the bodies.

During the Vietnam war the images of the death that where shared played a key roll in moving public opinion away from that war. Which is why during the Iraq wars controlling the images media outlets shared where, and still are, strictly controlled.

Which is why I am glad when images of death are shared. Whether it’s images from inside our own homes, from our streets or from over half a world away. None of these images of death should be kept away from us if that’s what it takes for us to stop the killings.
