But if you care about us, escalate your efforts and do whatever you can to stop this genocide and demand a ceasefire before the end of this year. We can’t take it anymore

Israel is the only country in the world that prosecutes children in military court.

Many people argue that Israeli atrocities against Palestinians reflect the ideology of Netanyahu & the far-right, and that we shouldn't blame Israel as a whole.

So to clarify: ethnic cleansing has been going on since Israel's birth in 1948—regardless of who led the country

[Ben Norton @BenjaminNorton]

No, actually it's simple:

- Israel is a Western settler-colonialist project founded on the mass ethnic cleansing of indigenous Palestinians.

- US imperialism uses Israel as a military outpost in resource-rich West Asia.

- Israel has illegally occupied Palestinian land for decades and will never allow Palestinians to create a state of their own.

- Palestinians living under Israeli control are subjected to a brutal apartheid regime, as even Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch now admit.

- Another 6 million Palestinians are registered as refugees with the UN, and Israel denies them their legal right to return to their homeland.

- Palestinians have a right under international law to armed resistance against Israeli colonialism, as stated clearly in UN General Assembly resolution 35/35, among others.

- Israel's government has become increasingly far-right, racist, and eliminationist, and current members of the ruling coalition include literal fascist parties who want to commit genocide against Palestinians. That's what they are trying to do now, while hoping to once again ethnically cleanse the Palestinians who survive, forcing them out of Gaza into Egypt.

- The majority of the world, including almost all of the Global South (with a few exceptions), supports the Palestinian national-liberation struggle. Israel is supported by the United States and its proxies. But Washington uses its veto in the UN Security Council to prevent any international action against Israel's constant crimes against humanity.

[Dima Khatib @Dima_Khatib]

Folks who say:
“Oh I am with the Palestinians but Gaza needs to be freed from Hamas”

you guys remind me of Iraq being “freed”. So in order to “free people”, you bomb the hell out of them first?!

You are genocide apologists! Period.

[Raphael Mimoun @RaphMim]

I grew up in a Zionist household, spent 12 years in a Zionist youth movement, lived 4 years in Israel, and have friends and family who served in the IDF.

When that is your world, it's hard to see apartheid when it's happening.

Palestinians living in a refugee camp under brutal occupation have every fucking right to resist those who are killing them and keeping them hostage no matter what any of you pearl-clutching idiots think

You have a limited amount of fucks to give. Very few, in fact. And if you go around giving a fuck about everything and everyone without conscious thought or choice—well, then you're going to get fucked.

Just watched Bad Vegan. Seems that if a guy randomly asks you for a large sum of money you’re going to end up in a documentary sooner or later.
