What I hear in this is an inability to imagine Palestinians outside of their relationship to Jews. They are not allowed independent political subjecthood. They are perpetually discussed in relation to someone else.
sick & fucking tired of people likening antisemitism to islamophobia. they just aren’t fucking comparable. islamophobia is state-sanctioned. “muslim” is a racialized identity. there are entire institutions in this country dedicated to making sure anti-muslim violence exists.
According to Reporters Without Borders, Israel accounted for almost half of the world's journalist deaths this year. It says Israel has now been the deadliest country for journalists for three consecutive years.
I don’t know if anyone will even care about what I’m saying now but the truth is harsher than any person can imagine.
A large number of children in Gaza are being born with shocking deformities: open spine defects, severe heart abnormalities, missing limbs, deformed heads, and faces that look as if they were burned inside the womb. They come into the world already marked by the war before they even take their first breath.
Mothers have been inhaling rocket gases and toxic smoke for months, drinking water contaminated with explosives residue, and living on soil saturated with toxins.
I saw photos and videos myself of children in extremely difficult conditions unbearable to look at. Babies screaming in pain during their first hours of life, their tiny bodies horribly deformed. Doctors say they have never seen such cases in their entire lives, and they warn: “These deformities are unprecedented and will increase because of the pollution.”
Here, we don’t just suffer from hunger and epidemics we are giving birth to an entire broken generation from the moment they are born. We live inside a giant prison, deprived of medicine, clean food, electricity, and even the basic right to have healthy children.
There were no ‘targets’ - these are residential buildings and hundreds have been reportedly killed. This is what Israel has been doing in Gaza and in Lebanon for the past three years: targeting civilian infrastructure in order to enact mass casualties, chaos and destabilization.
Israeli kanagaroo courts have a 99% conviction rate against Palestinians. Now theyre imposing the death penalty as part of sentencing. It goes w/o saying this punishment won’t b applied to Jewish IsraelIs. But pls cut our mics again when we say apartheid. https://t.co/NvkHNr83gR
BREAKING: Israel's Knesset has passed a law to execute Palestinian detainees.
Death by hanging. Mandatory sentencing. No pardon. 90 days to carry out.
It applies through military courts with a 96% conviction rate. It does not apply to Israelis.
Israeli soldiers torture a one-year-old child in Gaza, including burning his leg with a cigarette and inserting a nail into his leg, according to a report, to pressure his father to make confessions

If drawing an Israeli soldier stepping on the skull of a dead Palestinian is anti-Semitic, what do you make of this photograph of an Israeli soldier doing precisely that?
HORRIFIC night in the West Bank.
Israeli settlers are attacking more than nine Palestinian villages and cities now, including Bethlehem, setting cars and homes on fire and attempting to burn families alive.
Watch | “The Voice of Hind Rajab” Stars Explain Choice of Pins at Oscars for Permanent Ceasefire
On the Oscars red carpet, stars of the The Voice of Hind Rajab, including Saja Kilani, explained the meaning behind the pins they wore, revealing they were created by an artist known as The Separate Fairy to symbolize a call for a permanent ceasefire.
They said the pins represent a plea for an end to ongoing bombings, destruction, and displacement “in Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, Venezuela and everywhere,” stressing that there is no ceasefire at present as wars continue around the world.
They also noted that their celebration at the Oscars felt incomplete because their lead actor, Motaz Malhees, was banned from entering the U.S. and attending the ceremony.
People are still tone policing Palestinians, which to me clearly reveals that while they publicly say a genocide happened, they either don't believe it or they don't really feel that bad about it. Imagine tone policing a victim of the Holocaust on how they talked about Germans.
Rafah is gone. A city with over 3,500 years of history. The city my grandmother lived in 80 years ago. Bulldozed. Erased in the blink of an eye. I will never forgive the world.
A surreal, chilling footage of Israelis marching with their children, some in strollers, into Gaza, seeking to colonise the ruins of an ongoing genocide. A scene so grotesque it feels scripted, yet it’s tragically real.
