"'We talk about the media being complicit in Israel's violence… but they also, it would appear, actively obscured the reality of what's happening, [Dr. James Smith] says, pointing to coverage of Israel’s massacre of more than 270 Palestinians in Nuseirat that occurred just after he left Gaza. …
'I truly don’t think that any of the major media outlets have captured the barbarity of this violence.'”
"For more than 56 years, what was termed the ‘peace process’ – a process that led nowhere – was actually a series of American-Israeli initiatives to which the #Palestinians were asked to react. Today, ‘peace’ must be replaced with #decolonization, and Palestinians must be able to articulate their vision for the region, with #Israeli|s asked to react." - #IlanPappé
"From air strikes to field executions, #FaultLines investigates the killings of civilians by the #Israel|i military in #Gaza and the role of the United States in the war. [..]
"Fault Lines worked with journalists in Gaza to profile three families as they try to survive the war."
Remember the BS lies of #US propaganda about #Biden warning #Netanyahu about attacking Rafah?
Netanyahu has once again showed who is the boss and slaughtering the besieged and defenceless Palestinians.
You don't hear him or his criminal spokespersons saying anything about the horrors of #Rafah and and the imposed starvation of half a million #Palestinians, most of them women and children.
Palestinian Christians suffer from a crisis of representation, as some church leaders and community members disassociate from the Palestinian struggle and perpetuate the perception that they are a "minority."
@LALegault : IMO, even suggesting that "Israel society" advocates ethnic cleansing and genocide, is DISCRIMINATION - because it is not true (see below).
If we discriminate, how are we not as insane as those individual Israeli's who state that every Palestinian is a terrorist?

“Divestment at the University of Edinburgh: Breaking from Balfour’s colonial legacy: As a university steeped in the legacy of Balfour, we have an urgent duty to end complicity in Israel's settler colonial project. Divestment from companies complicit in occupation, apartheid, and genocide is the first step toward historical redress.”
by University of Edinburgh Students and Staff Divestment Movement in Mondoweiss @mondoweiss
“This Monday 17th June 2024, the University of Edinburgh Court rules on a historical decision on whether or not to begin an active and immediate process of divestment from ‘controversial weapons’ complicit in Palestinian dispossession and Israeli settler colonialism, which the University has been entangled with for well over a century. The ruling of the court could mean immediate divestment from companies like Amazon and Alphabet as their ‘AI solutions’ might be plausibly in use in the mass targeting of civilians in Gaza. This would set a grand precedent and would serve as a concrete step to reducing our institutional complicity in violence against Palestinians.”

This war in #Gaza didn't start on October 7th. You can't deny history to excuse the #Zionists. Murderous, genocidal, #Israeli attacks on #Palestinians have been going on for over 75 years. But you don't like it when they fight back - you just want the #Palestinians to lay down and die as their land is stolen by European colonists.
"Mouin discussed the significance of the struggle for Palestinian freedom and its links with democratic movements across the world, including that of the Global South."
