Imagine what 8 billion people people could accomplish if we all loved and respected each other…

Meta has a moderation bias problem, not just a ‘bug,’ that’s suppressing Palestinian voices, shadowbanning content about Palestine. The platform has a history of inherent bias.

The French government has banned all demonstrations in support of Palestinians rights. This constitutes a serious and disproportionate attack on the right to demonstrate. Under international law a ban on demonstrations must be considered as a last resort. https://t.co/Tz7MJeR8ky

Even if you have committed to a side – Israel's or the Palestinians' – you can and should stand back, every now and then, to look at the bigger picture.

There are reasons the West is continuously waging wars, or fuelling them. Think of Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Ukraine, Gaza – all of them just in the last two decades.

One is because there is *lots* of money to be made from war – or there is if you belong to the ruling class. There's money in the weapons and technology that make the fighting possible; money in the resources, largely hidden from view, that are being quietly fought over; and money in persuading you and me that we must tighten our belts to support the war effort.

But there's another reason.

If we weren't at war, if a new war wasn't always dominating the headlines and our passions, making us either outraged or fearful for the future, we would have the mental space and energy to think about other things.

Such as how badly our societies are run, how the wealth gap just keeps growing, how incompetent our leaders seem, and how little is being done to solve the biggest problems facing us, like ecological collapse.

If we weren't so convinced that we are the good guys, if we weren't so eager to cheerlead another war, we might start to understand that we are all the same, that we share one planet, that our future hangs on cooperation not conflagration.

Which is precisely why we will always be at war.

Netanyahu bears responsibility for this Israel-Gaza war https://t.co/JL4KvFj1Br

We have witnessed terrible images come out of Israel and Palestine that deserve no excuse. Individuals worldwide, both pro-Palestine and pro-Israel, gathered to not only spread disinformation but drown out the voices of those trapped in Gaza or victimized by Hamas.

Apartheid will not end and neither will terrorism by besieging cities, deliberately bombing homes, murdering the unarmed, or glorifying any of these acts as self-defense. There is no excuse for the genocidal rhetoric being propagated and amplified. There is no excuse for the genocidal actions being taken. There is no excuse for the immoral grandstanding "for their cause" many have taken atop the pile of corpses this war is building.

What we know, is Hamas and the IDF are guilty of their actions, Israel's right wing party is guilty of their security failure, Netanyahu is guilty of accelerating this war and ignoring intelligence, the west is guilty of allowing Israel's impunity to run rampant, Iran and Russia are guilty of equipping Hamas with the weapons, training, and planning of their terrorist attack.

Who are not guilty, are the women and men, children and elderly trapped in the death spiral that fascists on all sides have created. Those innocents brutally killed and victimized by terrorists and war criminals are not guilty. You don't have to be guilty either. What is needed now, is not bloodlust or revenge, but concrete action and steps to remove Israel's impunity, punish Hamas, and protect the weak and innocent, who neither have arms to raise or a voice to be heard.

Concerning the tragic events unfolding in Israel and Gaza, I am grief-stricken for the unspeakable suffering and loss of life and loved ones. This horrific violence must end. I have no answers obviously, but I feel it is absolutely necessary to focus on our shared human existence and reality. The sanctity of our common humanity will hopefully serve to heal the unimaginable wounds of division.

[Dov Waxman @DovWaxman]

To the people celebrating the mass murder of Israeli civilians, you have lost your humanity. To the people enthusiastically calling for Israel to decimate Gaza, densely populated with 2 million Palestinian civilians, you have lost your humanity. Israelis and Palestinians are real people, just like you and me.

Citizens need to do less recounting of every nasty incident on behalf of tyrants and instead spend a lot more time explaining the nature of good leadership and how it compares with today’s leaders. https://t.co/BJFmCmfctj

@saq3 What’s more worrying is how many people are cheering on what’s happening and how easily the voices that speak up are being silenced.
