I am facing a very difficult time. Anything, any amount will help evacuate us from the bombed areas here, feed us and satisfy our hunger, even if it is 5 £.

This repulsive racism is eerily reminiscent of a past that appears anything but past. Genocides always begin — and unfold — through the dehumanization of the Other.
MEDIA RELEASE: ACIJ calls on Australian government to sanction Israeli ministers and take concrete actions to stop Israel's crimes https://t.co/B9KQY5Zbb5
Must read.
A very important statement from @theACIJ:
'The Australian Centre for International Justice has called on the Australian Government to impose targeted sanctions on two Israeli ministers through a detailed submission under Australia’s autonomous sanctions framework. The need for such action has been reinforced by the Ministers’ recent alarming statements in relation to Israel’s ongoing military assault on Gaza and further supported by the Joint Statement issued yesterday by the Governments of the United Kingdom, France, and Canada.
The Joint Statement expressed condemnation and opposition to Israel’s renewed military offensive in Gaza and its ongoing illegal settlement activity in the unlawfully occupied West Bank. The Joint Statement affirms the urgent need for an immediate cessation of Israel’s military operations in Gaza, the delivery of humanitarian assistance and respect for international humanitarian law.
It is deeply regrettable that the Australian Government did not join the statement or endorse its principled position. At a time when international partners are taking steps to address grave violations of international law, Australia’s glaring absence signals a concerning lack of resolve. Australia has failed to uphold its international legal obligations to respond to Israel’s international crimes, including its obligations to prevent genocide....'

⚡️BREAKING: Israeli snipers are firing at the Indonesian Hospital in northern Gaza, threatening those trying to flee the facility, under siege for three days.
Short 🧵Have removed ID from this so please leave the poster be. This is a response I see often (esp from White, Wester/Global North folk. Sharing because we have to talk about this. If only so we can break this (coloniser/colonising) solipsism
Stop this. Stop this. Stop this.
Israel has just killed 9 people from Moqayyad family in Jabalia refugee camp. Some people remain stuck under the rubble.
🚨BREAKING :The Israeli army directly targeted Dr. Mohammed Zahir’s room in the Indonesian Hospital, northern Gaza, after several military vehicles surrounded the hospital.
let me count the ways:
1. Not engage with false flag operations in Australia weaponising genuine protest. Diminishing free speech.
2. Banning Australian based companies engaging in trade with armaments factories in Israel
3. Banning dual Israeli-Australian nationals from fighting in the IDF, or making it very clear that doing so jeopardises their Australian citizenship.
4. Examining the “charitable status,” of extremist organisations aligned with AJA and their ilk
5. Trade embargo with Israel (we don’t buy much from them other than weapons and diamonds)
6. Voting consistently in the UN recognising Palestines right to exist in peace here are a number for your reference https://t.co/YgwCqE8WJJ
7. Ending Israeli recruitment drives in Australia
8. Travel ban for any Israelis currently fighting in the IDF
9. Banning Zionist propaganda merchants from travelling to Australia just like they banned Candace Owens
10. Cease all financial transactions to Israel
11. Support the efforts of UNRWA rather than try and smear the organisation.
12. Recall the ambassador.
13. Impose sanctions
Sure we are of no great consequence due to our population size however we are morally obliged to adhere to the UN Charter of Human Rights as well as the resolutions previously posted…
The unprecedented strike on Khan Younis is profoundly distressing – tens of thousands forced to flee under evacuation orders, while humanitarian zones are bombarded.
Australia must sanction the Netanyahu government.
The health ministry has released a new 1,000-page document with the names, ages and other info, of 52,959 Palestinians killed in Gaza.
For the first 100 pages (over 5,000 names), the age is listed at 5 years or younger.
The first 18 pages the age is listed as 0 (under 1 year)
Human rights are universal and non-negotiable.
They belong to all of us, as affirmed by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights —regardless of nationality, gender, sexual orientation, race, religion, beliefs, or any other status.
