A timely reminder that leaked Israeli studies found that pushing pro-Israel propaganda to Westerners didnt work & instead they advised spending millions blasting the West with racist Islamophobic content demonizing Muslims instead. I think about that a lot while browsing Twitter

Can anyone remember the last time @BBCNews interviewed a Palestinian about their experience of the racism of Zionism? Having spent the last two weeks interviewing elderly Nakba survivors in Jordan, driven off their land in their teens because of their ethnicity and religion, I'd be happy to suggest some astonishingly articulate victims of Israeli racism who would be only too happy to tell their tragic stories of eviction, slaughter and dispossession. It is like reporting on the Civil Rights movement in the US and only interviewing outraged Whites @bbclaurak @bbcnickrobinson @JustinOnWeb @BBCr4today
“[Saying] ‘Zionism is racism’ is offensive, it’s antisemitic and it’s dangerous” Broadcaster Jo Coburn says she “watched in horror” as the Green Party passed its motion on Zionism and criticises leader Zack Polanski's defence in his #BBCLauraK interview bbc.co.uk/news/live/c64gv8k2…

She was only four when Trump said he would end the war in 24 hours. Just turned six when Musk decided to join Trump on Putin’s side and help the Kremlin killers murder her
At the funeral of one of the Ukrainian kids murdered by Russians this week, while the U.S. hobbled the country's defenses. Elizaveta Sorochyshyna, age 6. Relatives and friends left stuffed toys near her coffin. Elizaveta was one of three children among the 23 people killed by russians that day.

🔴 Gaza’s Education Ministry said Sunday that Israeli forces have killed three schoolchildren in less than 24 hours. Tamer Shadi Subh was shot dead in northern Gaza’s Beit Lahia while in his tent. With no ambulance or vehicle available, his brother had to carry his body on his shoulders to the hospital.
With no ambulance and no car to carry him, his brother lifted him onto his shoulders and walked. Tamer Shadi Subh, a schoolboy, was shot dead by the Israeli occupation army on Sunday in the Tal Al-Dhahab area of Beit Lahia, in northern Gaza. Three years of genocide have left families without even a way to bring their dead to the hospital. Gaza’s Ministry of Education mourned Tamer as the third schoolchild killed by the Israeli occupation in less than 24 hours, after Mohammed Riyad Abu Hammad and little Misk Hazem Al-Dalu, who was shot when Israeli forces opened fire on displaced families’ tents in Al-Maghazi camp. The ministry warned that the road to school in Gaza has become a road to death, and called on the UN and UNICEF to act to protect Gaza’s students. Five Palestinians were killed across Gaza on Sunday, two of them children, and the death toll since the ceasefire has now passed 1,511. SOURCE: bilal.f0ad - mokhy3m

Still silent? ‘Isn’t it awful’ isn’t enough. Silence is complicity.
A Palestinian woman’s husband and all her seven children were killed, mutilated, by the israelis: ‘no one calls me Mum anymore’ @gazanotice

Nobel prize winner Navi Pillay gives Andy Burnham some lessons in this impressive interview with @Basement_Films: the ICJ triggered your government’s duty to prevent genocide in 2024—and if you’re still having difficulty ‘determining’ the question of Israel’s genocidal intent after all these years, look at our UN report, we’ve done the work for you.

Israeli Defense Minister Katz on Lebanon: '60 villages destroyed. 23,000 houses demolished. 200,000 residents gone. This is the Gaza model, and this is the model we are implementing.' Just a Minister of Defense proudly listing the villages he erased and the 200,000 people he displaced They've stopped hiding it

⭕️ Gaza: 7-Year-Old Girl Killed by Israeli Fire While Sleeping in Her Tent Seven-year-old Misk Hazem al-Dalu was killed when Israeli forces opened fire on displaced Palestinians sleeping in their tents west of the Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza, according to Palestinian news agency WAFA. Footage shared by Palestinian photographer Osama Aldahdouh shows Misk’s grieving father and relatives mourning over her body. Palestine’s Education Ministry confirmed her death and identified her as a student at Maryam bint Imran School. The Israeli military had not commented on the killing at the time of reporting. 🎥: Osama al-Dahdouh.

Three years ago, children in Gaza held a press conference in english to beg the world to stop the bombardment. ~22,000 children have been killed since then. No one listened.

Of all the horrors inflicted on Palestinians here’s yesterday’s Israeli hilltop settlers creeping to a Palestinian farm and eviscerate baby lambs, cutting off heads and leaving some crying in agony before dying. Message clear to the farmers: leave or this is you next.

They will tell you that we teach our children to hate them. In truth, who can love, like, or even tolerate these demons?
Palestinian children scream and cry as Israeli settlers brutally beat their father before their eyes, leaving them terrified and helpless.

I$rael continues its systematic destruction of schools in Southern Lebanon, part of its ongoing acts of genocide carried out with the compliance of Western regimes
In their continuous, systematic destruction, the Israeli forces demolished al-Mabarrat School in Khiam around midnight.

Never has the concept of Liberal Zionism looked more absurd and contradictory. It almost makes you feel sorry for people who simply can't accept the evidence before their eyes that the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians was inevitable from the very beginning of Zionism. As Theodor Herzl wrote in his diary on June 2nd 1895: “We must expropriate gently the private property on the estates assigned to us. We shall try to spirit the penniless population across the border by procuring employment for it in the transit countries, while denying it employment in our own country. The property owners will come over to our side. Both the process of expropriation and the removal of the poor must be carried out discreetly and circumspectly.”
“settlers are undermining the settler project” guys we’re reaching levels of liberalism heretofore thought impossible

Just been to see NAZA. For those of you who are of the opinion that ‘it’s complicated’ you’ll find out that it isn’t. It’s Genocide. The intent is blatant. Go see it.
