I’ve seen war, been a refugee, and am grateful to the many who supported and helped our family, especially members of the Jewish community in Toronto. Yet, remaining silent about Gaza feels like complicity. I am deeply dismayed by the actions of our PM, @JustinTrudeau.

Eurovision banned Russia for war. Now it’s time to ban Israel for genocide in Gaza. Over 60,000 killed — no stage for genocide. Sign now. https://t.co/ClgcAsWOug

Israeli army database suggests at least 83% of Gaza dead were civilians

Classified intelligence from May reveals Israel believed it had killed ~8,900 militants in Gaza, indicating a proportion of civilian slaughter with few parallels in modern warfare.

All ethnonationlist projects lead to genocide, Zionism is no exception. Moderate Zionists have always thought that they can temper the worst impulses of their neighbours while forgetting how other ethnonationalist narratives always end.

Netanyahu’s occupation of Gaza is not just a political survival strategy. He also needs to sanatize the genocide through information flows by total control on the ground. His western backers are complicit because they too do not want to document the extent of the horror.

[Igor Drljaca @IDrljaca]

Hasbara is designed to numb us — to shut down rational thought, to excuse a supremacist ideology, and to make disengagement feel safer than resistance. It trains us to either accept injustice or stay silent, under threat of both real and manufactured repercussions.

[Igor Drljaca @IDrljaca]

Don’t forget Gaza! The genocide is deliberate and ongoing.

[Macklemore @macklemore]

fucked up.

[Igor Drljaca @IDrljaca]

Recognize a Palestinian State like Norway, Ireland, Spain did today and like most of the world has done decades ago. Under Netanyahu Israel has never been a genuine partner for peace. All the evidence anyone needs is the state sponsored settlements in the WB. @JustinTrudeau

[Igor Drljaca @IDrljaca]

The ICC has issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and his war mongers, yet the West continues to aid the genocide. A South Africa-style boycott and divestment from Israel is the only way for effective change, which is why Western governments are trying to criminalize it.

Walking out on Jerry Seinfeld is the most antisemitic thing I’ve seen since the persecution of Jeffrey Epstein.

Dystopia was in the air and Apple couldn’t resist. Comes with an M4 chip and a tone-deaf display.

[Tim Cook @tim_cook]

Meet the new iPad Pro: the thinnest product we’ve ever created, the most advanced display we’ve ever produced, with the incredible power of the M4 chip. Just imagine all the things it’ll be used to create.

[Krystal Ball @krystalball]

The US state will stop at nothing to continue the slaughter of Palestinians. They will label our own kids nazis, use overwhelming force to crush their dissent, Biden will tank his own reelection just to make sure kids in Gaza can be bombed and starved. Unimaginable depravity.

‘I am a Jewish student here at UCLA. Last night, over 100 people in our encampment were injured, including 25 people that had to go to the hospital.’

Jewish students from @jvplive @IfNotNowOrg and other groups are in all of encampments, fighting for progressive Jewish values

[Igor Drljaca @IDrljaca]

The only strategy left for Isreal’s government and it western backers is to stage situations and weaponize anti-semitism. They have no moral arguments behind the occupation or collective punishment, and like all ultranationalist ideolgies they have to manufacture reality.

[Richard Brody @tnyfrontrow]

Saw the signatories and, for some, thought, Et tu? I'm appalled by the bad-faith distortions of Jonathan Glazer's remarks; he doesn't reject Judaism; he doesn't equate massacres in Gaza and in Israel with the Holocaust but finds them all rooted in dehumanization—and he's right...

[Igor Drljaca @IDrljaca]

Films for Palestine series continues with Foragers by Jumana Manna at 1pm on Friday, March 22 - FREE SCREENING at @theCinematheque

[Igor Drljaca @IDrljaca]

The blatant distortion and Western support of the Israeli government and IDF is unprecedented, despite all the evidence of intent to commit genocide and knowing who is on the ground. Israel has normalized the use of collective punishment as an instrument of war, in Gaza and in WB

[TRT World @trtworld]

"They are bombing homes knowing how many children were actually inside"

American veteran Josephine Guilbeau tells TRT World that the Israeli army deliberately targets Palestinian civilians despite having the technology to see who is in the buildings they choose to annihilate

[Avi Lewis @avilewis]
