this is such vital information !! fight genocide by learning and only using the Palestinian words for the towns and cities of Palestine, because they are PALESTINIAN.
do not let Palestine be erased through language. the colonisation of language is just as deadly.
(edit with the link! please reblog this version instead!!!!)
Israel mistook three hostages for Palestinian civilians and killed them.
Israel killed 20,000 civilians and counting. I wonder how many Palestinians of these 20,000 killed will make it on the front page of CNN, or any news outlet for that matter.
Good morning people! The world unpaused their favorite genocide today.
DO NOT STOP SPEAKING FOR PALESTINE.
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I am speechless.
(Nov. 29)
Meet Mohammed Nazzal, a Palestinian child. He was in administrative arrest (this means he can stay held captive without charge for as long as israel decides, also look it up for better understanding) without charge or trial in Israeli occupation prisons and was released yesterday as part of the hostages exchange.
"They shattered metal bars on me, beating me non-stop on my head, broke my hands. They starved me."
They have since left four premature babies to decompose on their beds. They have since kidnapped, stripped, tortured civilians and tried to frame them as Hamas fighters for their propaganda. They have since shot people at refugee camps execution style. They have since targeted academics and poets and directors. They have since killed 86 journalists. Still no ceasefire.
psa: i know that many of us did NOT doubt this for a second, neither did i. this is targeted at the people who educated themselves for the first time about this genocide and discovered the absolute horrific things that Israel is capable of doing to Palestinians, with the unwavering support of its allies.
"... a stark reminder that genocide is about more than just the premeditated mass extinguishing o human life; it's also about the calculated, and often vindictive, destruction of a people's culture, language, history, and shared sites of community." [source: Gabrielle Bates on X, formerly known as Twitter. 11/27/23.] Original post they are responding to on Literary Hub: "Gaza's main public library has been destroyed."
guys, it is free Palestine until Palestine is free. It isn’t only ceasefire now, it is also end apartheid, occupation state now. It is free Palestine, completely, until Palestine is truly free.
I have transcribed the English translations on this video below:
"With God and the IDF's help, after we turn Khan Younis into a soccer field, I'm sure there will be international pressure at some point -hopefully after we finish the job -to rehabilitate Gaza and [to think] what needs to be done with Gaza. And then we need to take advantage of that. To take advantage of the destruction that we will wreak upon them, in order [to tell] the countries of the world, that each one of them should take a quota, it can be 20,000 or 50,000 [to say] that they too should shoulder the burden in order to allow them to leave. You have to understand it was hard for them to leave until now, it was complicated to leave Gaza. We need to change our mindset, and let them leave. We need to let them leave. As Tzvika said before, in the last few years half a million young people emigrated. We need 2 million to leave. In all honesty, that's the solution for Gaza."
On national television, as so many of them have proudly and publicly declared; a former Israeli Minister encourages mass displacement of Palestinian people on HISTORIC PALESTINE as a way to continue their Zionist agenda -she, as many of the liberal zionists do -propose this as a solution to end THEIR OWN systematic violence against Palestinian people... the audacity.
Do people sincerely think this isn't ethnic cleansing? Like at this point, settlers will literally say they want to burn Gaza to the ground and make it their 'paradise,' and western/European politicians and people will say that there's '2 sides to this...' and Israel has a 'right to defend itself,' despite breaking international laws, committing war crimes and genocide, and being a terrorist state with fascist mentalities...
I'm disgusted.
Twitter/X user states: Israel has wiped out over 900 bloodlines in Gaza since October 7th. As in, killed every single living member of the family, in every generation. As in, no survivors of that family name. As in -genocide. [by: @ shailjapatel]
Twitter/X user was originally responding to a post made by @ MahaGaza, who wrote: Wateen Monir Abujummeiza, the last member of the Monir's Abujummeiza's family, succumbed to her wounds today in #Gaza amid the ongoing Israeli attack.
[Image description: there is a picture of a young girl in a dark green, sleeveless dress with an attached belt into the design, and a blouse; most likely a buttoned up long-sleeved collared shirt, which is light purple. It has also fluttery sleeves. She carries a backpack, and this picture was most likely taken before school.]
A former pilot and captain in the Israeli occupation army tells the truth and nothing but the truth.
the fact is, israel now definitely realises that no one believes its bullshit anymore, especially seeing the mass movement and huge shift in narrative in response to its ongoing war against Gaza. this tells israel that the mask is now completely off and the masses no longer believe its claims of being the victim and whatever the hell else.
this explains why the scale of violence has been so overwhelming in recent weeks, considering there is nothing for israel to justify anymore and no pretences to keep up for those who used to fall for them.
there is also the sense of embarrassment; a whole military apparatus with billions in annual aid still could not break a besieged, starved enclave (it never will). we have been hearing about ground invasion this, ground invasion that and we have yet to see anything tangible.
again, the public for the most part has now seen who israel really is; a genocidal, terrorist state, and israel knows there's no turning back from this so it ramped up the violence to cause as much damage as possible before it is forced to halt its current acceleration of the ongoing genocide.
U.S. officials are literally telling israel to "pause" so that people can ease up a little and be lulled back into complacency. always remember this and let's keep doing what we're doing because the tides have really turned.
please don't stop speaking up. please don't stop writing letters. don't stop protesting. i know we all feel so helpless but all we can do is keep their morale high. show the people that you support their right for freedom and that you see their pain and suffering, and empathise. keep going. please. until palestine is free.
So those shadowbanning us who work at @meta see these videos everyday, see the torture and turmoil Palestinians are going through and the hate that is spreading...and yet continue on with their jobs. How can people see this and not feel crippled from within by the sheer injustice. My heart hurts. This is expected from an oppressor but those that are just watching on the sidelines...how could you??
Happening now: American Jews are shutting down 8 bridges in 8 cities across the country for the 8th night of Hanukkah with one clear unified message: permanent ceasefire now [ @/ sumayaawad on X. 12/14/23.] ❤️🇵🇸
Today, on the International Volunteer Day, we mourn the loss of our volunteer Osama Tayeh, known as "the children saver," who tragically lost his life two days ago in a bombardment near his home in Jablyia, north of the #Gaza Strip.
