In the most heroic act of self defense, Israeli military destroyed the flower roundabout in Nablus in occupied West Bank.
The criminal actions of IDF in occupied west bank is not receiving much publicity, but they are attacking every town in under Palestinian control under the cover of fighting "Terrorists" but in reality, they are destroying roads, infrastructure, bakeries, schools, electric poles, cellphone base station and hospitals and medical centers.
These actions can not in any way counted as self-defense or justified in a fight against Hamas or even the PA, these actions are to make lives of Palestinian unbearable and to punish them in the most barbaric ways.
And again, the so called civilized world is standing by silent and in compliance fully behind these atrocities while punishing and muzzling those who raise their voices against these crimes.
It's not going to happen, but it's a step towards the right direction.
Judging by the way #ICC charged #Hamas, every ranking military serving in Gaza to be charged with #WarCrimes, just like they did with those in #Bosnia and #Rwandan.
But sadly, just #Netanyahu and #Gantz were those they could dare charging.
@faab64@palestine@israel I'm not sure and can see how one might make the opposite argument: it's good that they did not "bad apple" the Israeli crimes by charging some specific Israeli soldiers with documented blood on their hands, but by charging Netanyahu and Gallant, they clearly signalled that the crimes are deliberate policy. Which is much more valuable support for the parallel ICJ process too.
Imagine #Gaza to be an experimental setting for postapocalyptic survival practice. If you're not on the ground and feel the imminent danger of being harmed or killed, then this sencario is not so far fetched due to the cognitive incapacity of the average Western guy.
As a territorial entity Gaza is neatly cut out of its regional environment by being totally shut off from the outside even to the Mediterrenean. No refugee boats sailing to the EU only to be pushed back by Frontex and left to drown, no humanitarian crisis that exceeds the bloodyy borders of Gaza by an inch
If you know that Tel Aviv with its luxurious beach resorts, its fancy bars and well assorted super markets is only some dozen kilometers away from Gaza, where Agamben's homini sacres stumble through the ruins barely clinging onto their "naked life", you will tend to believe that this is just an hyperbolic fantasy or a film setting for the next dystopian streaming original.
This is how unreal it gets if the Israeli arms industry sells their deadly products with guaranteed efficiency approved by the outcomes of real life conditions in Gaza while the lab humans in the test site are observed and evaluated by a military that lauds itself to offer its personnel cruelty free vegan food instead of butchered meat.
Don't look into the mirror of Gaza - it might remind you
that the dark clouds of climate catastrophe and world war III hang above your own future
so that you could find yourself among the lost and forgotten who are sacrificed in the name of highest ethical values and universal rights
to bring about collective amnesia for what is about to come and shall not be confronted.
Doctors Without Borders said that the intensification of the onslaught by Israeli forces on #Rafah has forced it to stop providing lifesaving care at Rafah Indonesian Field hospital as of 12 May.
Guitar icon Eric Clapton releases new song accompanied by #Gaza imagery
Titled Voice of a Child, video features images of extensive destruction in Gaza, the life of palestinian children images from and pro-Palestinian/Anti-Wad protests around the world.
It's really sad that YouTube have decided to age restrict the video even though it doesn't have anything violent or graphic to disturb the younger generation, and much less than what they see on TV shows, movies and Video games

Lyrics:
The people they won’t leave
What is threatening
about divesting and wanting peace?
The problem isn’t the protests
it’s what they’re protesting
Cause it goes against
what our country is funding
Block the barricade until Palestine is free
Block the barricade until Palestine is free
When I was 7 I learned a lesson
from Cube and Eazy E
What was it again?
oh yea
fuck the police
Actors in badges
protecting property
And a system that was designed
by white supremacy
But the people are in the streets
You can pay off meta
you can’t pay off me
Politicians who serve by any means
AIPAC, CUFI and all the companies
You see we sell fear around the land of the free
But this generation here
is about to cut the strings
You can ban tik Tok
take us out the algothim
But it’s too late
we’ve seen the truth we bare witness
We’ve seen the ruble the buildings
the mothers the children
And all the men that you murdered
and then we see how they spin it
Who gets to the right to defend
and who gets the right of resistance
Has always been about dollars
and the color of your pigment
But
White supremacy is finally on blast
Screaming free Palestine
until they’re home at last
We see the lies in them
Claiming it’s anti-semetic
to be anti-zionist
I’ve seen jewish brothers and sisters out there and riding
In solidarity and screaming
free Palestine with em
Organizing, unlearning
and finally cutting ties with a
State
that’s gotta rely on an apartheid system
To uphold an occupying violent
History been repeating for the last 75
The Nakba never ended,
the colonizer lied
If some kids in tents,
posted on the lawn
occupying the quad
is really against the law
And a reason to call
in the police and their squad
where does genocide land
in your definition huh?
destroying every college in Gaza and every mosque
pushing everyone into rafah and dropping bombs
The blood is on your hands Biden,
we can see it all
And fuck no
I’m not voting for you in the fall
Undecided,
you can’t twist the truth
The people out here
united
never be defeated when Freedom’s on the
horizon
Yet the music industry’s quiet
complicit in their platform of silence
What happened to the artist
what do you got to say?
If I was on a label,
you could drop me today
And be fine with it
cause the heart fed my page
I want a ceasefire
fuck a response from drake
#IDF destroyed the last operating cell tow in Rafah and set it on fire.
One of the key goals of Israel is to prevent the world witnessing what they are doing in Gaza. From murder of reporters, preventing foreign press to enter and destroying the means of communication, they are setup up the stage for full blown assault on #Rafah and mass murder of innocent palestinians who have no where to go.
@faab64 Never would have thought Team Blue could fit their heads even farther up their asses than they were in 2016. Not only did they fail to learn anything, they appear to have become even more disconnected from reality since then. And they're driving us headlong into 4 more years of Trump. Which I'm sure they'll blame you and me for.
At some point you have to start wondering if that level of ignorance could really be unintentional.
@freakazoid@palin It really is unbelievable, I honestly don't understand the power of Israel and Christian zionists have over the world politics and economy.
Biden will lose, no matter if he supports Netanyahu or not, he is in a loose/loose situation and christian zionists would rather have Trump as president with unconditional support of Israel than Biden who is shy about his support.
Following the #Biden administration's announcement that the US will withhold large bombs and artillery shells if Israel moves into a full invasion of Rafah, #Netanyahu asserted Israel's readiness to proceed independently into the crowded city.
“If we have to stand alone, we will stand alone. If we need to, we will fight with our fingernails,” declared Netanyahu in a video statement.
Israel has reached out to US Senators to condemn Biden's decision and demand the immediate reinstatement of #weapons to Israel, with some senators even calling for Biden's impeachment over this move.
@faab64@palestine
I think it is temporary insanity. None of it (ex maybe impeachment, but wouldn't hold) is legal. Not that that ever stopped them before.
@faab64@palestine
There is plenty of evidence that Israel is committing war crimes, that makes it illegal to send them attack weapons under USA law(s).
"Israel is fighting a just and necessary war," asserted U.S. Senator from Arkansas, #TomCotton, in support of Israel continuing its genocide in Gaza.
The Senator also suggested that "the House has no choice but to impeach #Biden over delayed Israel aid." This highlights the extent to which U.S. senators supported by #AIPAC funding are willing to go to ensure Israel remains armed with U.S. weaponry.
@clawfulneutral I don't want to exhaust the limited resources of my pod. that is why i created that telegram channel. But this video could not be downloaded.
The Israeli military have started it's ground offensive against Rafah by the border of Egypt by air, artillery and tanks.
There are reports of heavy bombings and classes by the border, with no reaction from the Egyptian military despite loud warning about such acts just a few weeks ago.
