"Standing Together is a grassroots Jewish-Arab movement fighting for peace, equality and social justice in Israel-Palestine." - from their FB site.





@palestine @israel

Screenshot of Standing Together post on Facebook with text: Settlers are attacking aid trucks on a daily basis and law enforcement is doing barely anything to stop it. In the coming weeks we’re setting up a humanitarian guard - activists who will go to the aid trucks themselves to protect the aid from violent attacks. To do this we need to fund legal assistance, security, rental cars and trucks, and plenty of other equipment necessary to protect the aid. We need your help! To support our humanitarian guard - head to the link in our story. There is a graphic with photos of aid trucks looted, and a graphic of 2 hands holding a shield with an olive branch and a truck behind it.

    Not generally a fan of the NYT's coverage of the war, but this is a really important piece.

    Israel has tolerated and fostered extremism and radicalism, leading to horrifying terror in the West Bank and threatening the Israeli state itself.

    @palestine @israel

    There’s a game of chicken going on. The Biden camp is explicitly counting on progressive voters eventually falling in line. This dynamic, this wager, is EXACTLY why they keep sending arms and money to Israel. They are expressly blackmailing left voters, pitting vulnerable groups stateside with genocide victims overseas. This is their calculus and millions of voters intuitively know this. Meanwhile the moral incumbency is placed on some vague cohort of Arab/black/progressive voters This is the CONTEXT of the discussion and rallying the troops at this point—six months before the actual decision needs to be made—reads to a lot of people as capitulation without a fight, as confirmation Biden’s strategy is working in real time. I too find this incredibly insensitive and vulgar. Without ANY CONCESSIONS, without a fight at all people of influence and power should not preemptively pledge their vote. Whats the rush? It’s six months from now? It’s a Hail Mary but why not try to unite to pressure Biden?
    Not because anyone wants to, or because it’s fun or makes people feel self righteous but because, and this can’t be stressed enough—IT’S ALL THERE IS. And it’s all there is because of Biden’s extremism and unwillingness to listen to overwhelming democratic voter consensus I tried to articulate this in this piece from March. I think the abstract question of “is Trump worse than Biden” is not a question anyone has to sheepdog for this far out. It’s not clear to me what the moral utility of this is at this point.

    Tweet by @adamjohnsonCHI My contribution to the “we still have to vote for Biden discourse” is this: I think the popular debate suffers from a flawed premise that this is some abstract trolly problem without political context. 🧵 That Trump “would be worse” is a reasonable position in the abstract ofc but it’s secondary to the CONTEXT of the debate which everyone keeps avoiding but I think it’s the far more interesting and urgent question. What function does the specter of massive vote withholding have? 6 months before the election in Q media influencers and progressive politicians pledging their partisan fidelity serves no functional purpose other than undermining the SINGLE point of leverage powerless angry anti-genocide voters have, which is Team Biden’s fear of losing in Nov It sucks that this is the one point of meaningful leverage they have, but it is, and it’s entirely due to Biden’s cold stubbornness and the cracking down on on meaningful dissent.

    Often arrested for her advocacy, Medea Benjamin is one of the most prominent figures of the pro-Palestine movement in Washington, DC.

    Online videos show her grilling US lawmakers over their unconditional support for Israel or disrupting congressional meetings.

    In an interview with TRT World, she explains why, as a Jew and as an American, it is essential to advocate for a permanent and immediate ceasefire in Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza.

    13 May 1948 the Palestinian village of Najd was ethnically cleansed of its Arab residents by Zionist militia. They were expelled and forced to live in nearby Gaza as refugees. The Israeli town of Sderot was later constructed over it.
