@dlamini_dumza1@maxkatz515 Most experts say it’s not genocide. 🥲 About 500 here: https://t.co/j01nqVfIDu You don’t need an expert to tell you that a 97% survival rate is not genocide, just a functioning brain.
@maxkatz515 10/7 and the behavior of so many dissuaded me. I was never wholly sympathetic to Palestine but always advocated for a 2SS. But that Palestine kept saying no says it all. Not to mention it always came across as antisemitic.
@maxkatz515 Same, man. 10/7 changed me, but everything that's happened since has changed me even more. I see "palestinians" for what they are now.
I no longer believe a 2SS is possible with an society raised for multiple generations to want to kill Jews. That's just the truth of it. 🤷🏽
It's kinda fkd that before 10/7 I was largely pro Palestinian. My best friends family is from Jaffa and he filled my head with all kinds of dumb sht, but I wanted a 2SS and did very little research.
Then 10/7 happened and people went nuts. So I had to figure out the truth.
“Please don’t get in my comment section and try to shame me into supporting Palestine because I’m Black and I should be supporting brown people. No, I’m not going to do that, because you’re ignorant and skin-color obsessed.
You don’t even understand the fact that, in Palestine, there are neighborhoods called Al-Abid, translated as ‘the slaves,’ where Afro-Palestinians live. These are marginalized Black neighborhoods that are called Al-Abid, ‘the slave,’ and many Palestinians still refer to Black people as abid, meaning ‘slave’ in Arabic.
Why? For those of you who are unfamiliar and unaware, number one: the Arab Muslim slave trade is the longest-spanning slave trade in history. It’s even longer than the transatlantic slave trade.
Number two: many of the Afro-Palestinians who currently reside in Palestine were taken there during the Ottoman Empire, a large Islamic empire that was known for the forced servitude and enslavement of many cultures and groups of people.
So, many of the Afro-Palestinians in Palestine were taken there through forced servitude and enslavement, and they still reside there in neighborhoods where they are referred to as slaves.
Again, as a Black person, if you’re going to try to appeal to my race, which, by the way, I don’t make decisions based on race and skin color; I make decisions based on truth, then come up with something better, because it isn’t cutting it.”
Support of the Palestinians to a degree also requires an ignorance of history.These " Gazans" have caused Wars everywhere they go,In Jordan the Pali's killed the King and started a war , in Lebanon they sided with Hezbollah and started a civil war, in Kuwait they aided Saddams invasion.
Why are people like @MarkRuffalo@johncusack@rogerwaters and far too many others so singularly obsessed with one particular human rights issue, while they ignore so many others?
Do the millions of Uyghurs held in
Chinese concentration camps not deserve your support?
Do Afghani women, who had the basic rights they had cherished stripped from them by their oppressors, not deserve your empathy?
Do the Ukrainian people, long under Russian siege?
Do the Islamists slaughtering Christians by the thousands across the African continent not deserve your “virtuous” anger?
We already know the real reason why Israel refusing to be wiped out of existence makes you rabid.
So do us all a favor.
At the very least.
Stop gaslighting us.
Just say you’re a bunch of biased, hate mongering bigots and call it a day, ok?

Almost exactly a year ago to the day, I uncovered that a dozen of the most viral images presented as evidence of famine in Gaza in fact showed children with unrelated medical issues, including cystic fibrosis and autoimmune conditions.
The investigation earned me death threats, calls for me to be tried at The Hague, and jabs by a high-profile comedian on national TV—despite the fact that we’ve had to issue exactly zero corrections on our story.
Our point was simply to tell readers that if there was a famine in Gaza, photographs of these children were not evidence of it.
What is indisputable today is that there is currently no famine in Gaza.
That is the major finding from a UNICEF-led team that recently produced the most comprehensive and robust nutrition survey of Gaza since the war began.
The survey found that less than a year after a famine was declared in Gaza, the territory has one of the lowest malnutrition rates in the region. A recovery that swift is not just “miraculous,” in the words of a malnutrition researcher I spoke with—it raises questions in and of itself. Questions like: How can a war-torn territory go from famine to showing some of the lowest rates of child malnutrition in the region in less than a year?
In my report today for @TheFP, I investigate that question, its implications, and what it means for the debate over the official decision to classify a famine in Gaza still raging 12 months on.
@BoyGeorge I honestly cannot understand Jew hatred. I'm not jewish but jewish people aren't the ones trying to wipe every non jew off the planet. The world has gone insane.
@BoyGeorge@koshercockney The media told me Isreal is bloodthirsty genociders, and instead of researching the history of Jewish people in Isreal, or the Muslim invasions and subsequent economic migrations, I’ve decided just to virtue signal for something I know absolutely nothing about. #FreePaplestien
@BoyGeorge Nice one, George. And there is evidence that the funding for the regular Saturday marches screaming anti-Semitic slogans came from....China! Who don't of course care about Israel or Gaza but are eager to de-stabilize this country! You're on the side of the angels, my dear!
Hey you more than 20 actors with @Marvel@MarvelStudios@Avengers connections who have signed a statement calling for Marwan Barghouti’s release.
Let me introduce to you those that were murdered because of Barghouti’s orders! You don’t even have the decency to acknowledge them!!!! So I will. Shame on you.
The names of the five individuals he was convicted of responsibility for murdering are:
•Father Germanos (Georgios Tsibouktzakis): A Greek Orthodox monk and abbot at St. George’s Monastery in Wadi Qelt, killed in a June 2001 roadside drive-by shooting near Ma'ale Adumim.
•Yosef Havi: Killed in the March 2002 shooting attack at the Seafood Market restaurant in Tel Aviv.
•Elyahu Dahan: Killed in the March 2002 Seafood Market restaurant shooting attack in Tel Aviv.
•Selim Barichat: An Israeli Druze police officer killed in the March 2002 Seafood Market restaurant shooting attack in Tel Aviv.
•Yoela Chen. She was an Israeli civilian shot and killed on January 15, 2002, during a shooting attack at a gas station near Givat Ze'ev.
This is along with close to 1,000 other Israelis who were killed by terrorists in the Second Intifada (you can see why Jews condemn the usage of Globalize the Intifada!!!!).
So:

Think the next time so many of you jump on a bandwagon to release a convicted terrorist! Shameful and antiSemitic.
55 organizations around the world have launched an initiative called “Gaza GenoLIE” to counter what they describe as the “Gaza genocide lie,” claiming that the characterization has been systematically promoted by anti Zionist and antisemitic networks in the United States, Europe and other parts of the world.
The initiative includes organizations such as the Ireland Israel Alliance, Italy’s Solomon Observatory on Discrimination and the Sweden Israel Alliance, along with Stand With Us, the World Jewish Congress, CAMERA and the National Jewish Advocacy Center.
The initiative describes the “Gaza genocide” as one of the biggest lies of the 21st century and says its website aims to provide material explaining and refuting the narrative that Israel is committing genocide in the Gaza Strip. The website divides its arguments into eight sections that make up what it calls the “Gaza GenoLIE Puzzle.”
