There was a point, 3 yrs ago, when Israel felt compelled to explain its attacks on hospitals. Then it realized Western govts aren’t fussed about such war crimes & Western media was happy to justify them. And so here we are: dozens of hospitals bombed in Gaza, Iran & Lebanon.
A father and his young daughter lie dying having been hit with a precision missile (US made) by Israel.
The ambulance crew arrives to try help.
Israel then hits them with a missile.
All on camera.
Proven.
War crimes.
Yet our leaders still arm them & support them.
Why?
If 9 Jewish paramedics were killed ANYWHERE in the world it would be called terrorism.
And we’d never hear the end of it.
Israel slaughtered 9 paramedics in 72 hours, most of which we’ve seen on film, and we only hear their names on Twitter.
Youre so right! Only a Republican would have prisoners work as unpaid slave labor firefighters , destroy homeless encampments, and make it illegal to critique Israel in schools! Oh fuck, wait…
Keith Porter’s murder wasn’t captured on camera, so it’s allowing ICE to sweep it under the rug, but we need to keep talking about him just as much as we talk about Renee Good and Alex Pretti. None of us are safe from this campaign of state violence.
Never in the history of Western democratic politics has a single government contained so many proven and brazen liars who lie so often and so effortlessly and so demonstrably.
ICE agent asked why he's taking pictures of a legal observer's car, replies: "Cuz we have a nice little database and now you're considered a domestic terrorist. So have fun with that."
The most armed population in history would do something about the Gestapo roaming their streets, but they need to save ammo for real emergencies like a child playing ding dong dash, or the sudden urge to commit a familial murder-suicide.
This is how Palestinian journalism has been targeted for years:
An occupation soldier opens the door of a military vehicle and fires dozens of bullets directly at a Palestinian journalist’s camera, simply because it conveys the truth.
Sniping the lenses, silencing the image, and attempting to kill the truth…
But the truth does not die, even if they smash the cameras.
devastating speech by the UN Under Secretary General for Humanitarian Affairs.
"...death on this scale has a sound and a smell that does not leave you"
"[in the West Bank] recently [Jewish] settlers abducted a 13 year old girl and her three-year-old brother. They were found tied to a tree. Do we also say to them that we did all that we could?"
"Future generations will hold us to account, we should fear that judgement."
ICE will kidnap you based on a lie. The DOJ will defend that choice in court by telling more lies.
They don’t care about the truth.
Their agenda is ethnic cleansing, and they will use any means necessary to achieve it.
If I am killed in the West Bank, please know that I blame you personally @GovMikeHuckabee. I was set up by the IDF to be attacked by 100 armed settlers. When I sent the embassy the video and asked for protection for me and everyone else in Turmus’ayya, they literally said no.
