America first!

Israel gets approximately $15 billion dollars a year from the American taxpayers. That's $30,000 for every man, woman and child.

Exactly. At some point, the full definitive picture will emerge of the barbarism, war criminality and sadism used by Israel and the US to deliberately destroy Gaza -- incomparable to anything in this century -- and many will have to account for their indifference or support:

Palestinians didn’t “leave” in 1948. You “leave” a restaurant.

We weren’t “displaced.” You can be “displaced” by a hurricane.

We didn’t “flee.” A criminal “flees.”

We were expelled for being the wrong kind of people. There’s a specific name for that:

Ethnic Cleansing.

Use the right words.

I’ve watched a video of people burning alive, outside a hospital, still attached to drips at the hands of Zionists. Meanwhile Zionists are taking offence at……. A necklace 🤷🏼‍♀️ who are these people if not monsters ?

[Rania @umyaznemo]

These are not normal people!

[jay @tensorfied_]

this is the guy everyone saw burn and melt alive on a hospital bed with an IV attached to him. remember these people are more than just numbers. they had a life, a family, dreams just like us.

[Alonso Gurmendi @Alonso_GD]

They:
1) displaced him
2) displaced him again
3) displaced him again
4) displaced him again
5) displaced him again
6) starved him
7) put him on a hospital bed with an IV
8) bombed the hospital
9) burned him alive
10) couldn’t even be bothered to apologise

If the sight of human beings burning alive won’t stop the UK government supplying arms to Israel, what will?

[Alan MacLeod @AlanRMacLeod]

In years to come, students in university departments around the world will be studying the propaganda embedded in this headline.

As someone who regularly lectures in sociology, journalism and media studies, I could teach an entire lesson on the title alone.

For example:

1. Treating the 4 Israeli soldiers as more important than the 23 Palestinian children (by leading the story with their deaths and just chucking in the others at the end) implies their lives are of higher value.

2. Infantilizing active duty soldiers as "teenagers" while not emphasizing the age of the schoolkids, despite many of them being demonstrably younger.

3. The classic use of the passive voice: Israelis are "killed" while Palestinians merely "die".

4. Putting scare quotes around "23 die" subtly undermines the credibility of that claim. Maybe no one died, and the Palestinians are just lying?

5. Using the word "attack" for Hezbollah actions, but choosing a more neutral, clinical word like "strike" for Israeli aggression.

6. Allowing Israeli sources to dictate the framing of the story ("Israel names teenage soldiers") etc.

7. Actually naming the Israeli soldiers, but not doing the same for the far greater number of Palestinians, again sends the message to the reader that Palestinian lives don't matter nearly as much, if at all.

It's truly incredible how much propaganda has been packed into 16 words. We are swimming in an ocean of propaganda. That's why it is crucial to deconstruct it and critically assess everything you read, see and hear.

[Caitlin Johnstone @caitoz]

And there it is. They're finally admitting it. This is all this has ever been about. Not hostages. Not ending Hamas. Not self defense. Not mass rapes. Not beheaded babies or babies placed in ovens. This has always been about taking land from the indigenous people of Palestine.

[Alonso Gurmendi @Alonso_GD]

I don’t like sharing graphic images but I just saw a Palestinian child burning alive trapped under the rubble of Israel’s latest “act of self-defence”. A child. Burning alive.

[Jackson Hinkle 🇺🇸 @jacksonhinkle]

Hezbollah bombed Israeli soldiers trying to invade Lebanon last night.

Israel then bombed starving Gazan children in refugee tents, burning them in their sleep.

No rational person could claim Hezbollah are the “terrorists” in this scenario.

[Cacsade FDND @cacsade_xyz]

Please do everything you can to stop this. We Israelis whom oppose Netanyahu’s regime cannot stop this from within. There is no formal opposition.
Help.
Please share.

[Remi Kanazi @Remroum]

Israel burned alive Anne Frank in Gaza. They turned Jabaliya into Auschwitz on Yom Kippur. They set up Warsaw Ghetto and ran rape camps. Israel is a nation of Nazis. The Israeli army is the SS, Netanyahu at the helm as Hitler. A live Holocaust in front of our eyes.

[Sulaiman Ahmed @ShaykhSulaiman]

LOOK CAREFULLY - Patients connected to IVs were burnt in flames after Israel launched missiles at Al Aqsa Martyrs Hospital

[Ken O'Keefe @RealKenOKeefe]

🇵🇸 The Holocaust

They’re burning people alive but some of you are still afraid to speak out.

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

Israeli forces launched missiles at Al Aqsa Hospital where displaced Palestinians were sheltering in tents and receiving the very limited healthcare services available. ISRAELI FORCES BURNED THEM ALIVE! Can you see the hand? This is the extermination of a whole people! 💔

[Yanis Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis]

Israel has just won the war crime of the century prize: The IDF used chemical weapons on UN peacekeepers! https://t.co/R5FzMK6Qa6

[Greg Stoker @gregjstoker]

Pretty straightforward, the definition of Holocaust.

No sense in arguing semantics…
