Make it nation wide.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

We are doing this. Our governments. Our taxes. Our arms sales.

This is our Holocaust. Our Cambodian killing fields. Our Balkans. Our Rwandan genocide.

We are doing this and history will never forgive us.

🚨BREAKING: The child Hamza Mohammad Zuhair Al-Saloul, 8 years old, was killed in an Israeli airstrike that targeted the Al-Saloul family home in southern Al-Nuseirat central Gaza Strip.

[Caitlin Johnstone @caitoz]

If this is Israel, then Israel should not exist. If what we are seeing in Gaza is what it means for Israel to exist, then it shouldn't.

People scream bloody murder when you say this, but it shouldn't be a controversial position. I'm not saying Jews shouldn't exist, I'm saying a genocidal apartheid state should not exist. A state is an artificial construct of the human mind, held together by human actions. If the actions we are witnessing in Gaza are the product of the artificial construct of the Israeli state, then that artificial construct should be dismantled, and those actions should cease.

I would say this about any other man-made construct that is doing the things Israel is doing. If some scientists built a robot that spends all day every day massacring children, then I would say the robot should be unmade. If you drew a Star of David on the robot's head, it wouldn't suddenly make me an evil antisemite to say that the child-murdering robot should be dismantled.

Dismantling the apartheid state of Israel would mean granting everyone citizenship and equal rights, allowing right of return, denazifying apartheid culture, paying extensive reparations, and righting the wrongs of the past. You could still call what remains "Israel" if you wanted to, but it would be nothing like the state that presently exists under that name.

Would this upset the feelings of some Jewish people? Yes. Would it inconvenience the lives of some Jewish people? Certainly. But that would be infinitely preferable to the daily massacres, genocidal atrocities and reckless regional warmongering we are witnessing from the state of Israel. Advocating the end of this genocidal state doesn't make someone a monster, advocating its continuation does. The only way to believe otherwise is to take it as a given that Palestinian lives are worth less than Jewish feelings.

Israel is currently presenting nonstop arguments for its own cessation. Every video that comes out showing Israelis acting in monstrous ways and innocent Palestinians being murdered, tortured and abused in the most horrific way imaginable is an argument for which there is no verbal counter-argument. Every day that goes by, the genocidal apartheid state of Israel is proving to the world that it should not exist.

Marcellus Williams has one more chance to prove his innocence before the state of Missouri executes him in two months. He has been in prison for 23 years for a murder that his prosecutors now agree he did not commit.

But Missouri's Attorney General says it doesn't matter if Marcellus is actually innocent. And even though someone else’s DNA and fingerprints are on the murder weapon, that evidence has never been addressed at a hearing.

The Innocence Project is asking for help making sure that Marcellus Williams finally gets a fair day in court. If you want to learn more or sign the petitions, you can at https://t.co/CLSYRLP7mG and by following @innocence and @The_MIP.
