Keir Starmer: Israel Has The Right To Kill
Tumblr media
These so-called leaders keep giving Israel the green light to commit genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.
They supply that Rogue state with weapons to commit genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.
Then they consistently validate that pariah's genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.

The Substance
short version: five out of five stars, I had so much fun, for God's sake read the CWs. there are so many needles in this.
further thoughts: I think the viciousness of this movie rests on Elisabeth (Demi Moore) having built her career on promoting the very same unattainable beauty standards that she finds herself in conflict with. It's no coincidence that she's not just an actress, she's a celebrity fitness instructor. Going on TV every morning to tell us all that our bodies aren't good enough. She threw her lot in whole-heartedly with the beauty merchants, she preened and profited, and then she was shocked -- shocked! -- when they inevitably, predictably turned on her.
It's also telling that once she's injected the titular Substance and generated a new, young, beautiful version of herself, what does she do? She goes right back to the same business as before. Being sexier, fitter, more desirable than anyone else. Telling everyone their bodies still aren't good enough. Well, why not? Even her own body wasn't good enough for her anymore.
Coralie Fargeat has zero fucking sympathy for her and I feel the same. Oh, is it hard now? Is it alienating and dehumanizing and humiliating? Did you never bother developing yourself as a person because you were too busy peddling feminine oppression for Dennis Quaid, of all people? Fuck you! Suffer harder! You are complicit!
I would love to know how this lands for conventionally attractive women -- I never put in a sustained effort of this kind because it was made quite clear to me from a young age that the "right" kind of beauty would not be available to me. That comes with its own pain and its own fantasies about a "perfect" version of myself, but I suspect it's a different set.
I also wonder what trans women think of it, because while it's a very cis woman story (in that Elisabeth has always been a conventionally attractive girl and woman) it's also like... about transforming into a more desirable version of yourself, which, come on.
Finally, I feel like there's some disability commentary to be had in here, though that's not a subject I'm well versed in. I did find myself thinking, from time to time, that to many people it would be very tempting to have a body with no pain, a body that always moved easily and performed all its functions with no trouble. Even if only sometimes.

I made the stupid mistake of discussing Palestine and Israel with my family, again. I thought I’d have learned this by now, but No, I just had to bring up the subject with the people I know couldn’t care less about it!
They are biased as heck against information that doesn’t come from our local media when our reporters have never been in Gaza for all I know! And I don’t blame them for it because IOF has killed hundreds of journalists that have entered Gaza or West Bank since before and after Oct 7. Only Al Jazeera has been brave enough to continue covering the events of the genocide.
Speaking of Al Jazeera, I couldn’t believe what they said about the news-organization after I said that I would rather get my news from them than my local media outlets. If you have read my previous posts, which you probably haven’t, you know that I have stated that my country’s news-organizations are biased towards Israel and against Palestine. They had the gall to say that I’m biased towards Palestine because I listen to Al Jazeera for information about the conflict and worst of all is that they seem to believe the lie of them being a terrorist organization. I am afraid what they would say if I told them that I get my information from social media too. Also, I get my info from Middle East eye and TRT world too, so I don’t just watch AJ.
What I hated the most about this was that I was unable to keep my head cool and got angry. You can’t get someone to listen to you if you yell at them. I wouldn’t. Maybe if I had been calm enough then maybe they would have listened to me. Or maybe not, that I will never know.

🇵🇸 🚨
STATE OF PALESTINE CALLS ON INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY TO STOP GENOCIDE IN RAFAH
The State of Palestine today issued a statement Monday, February 12th 2024 calling on all responsible actors to stop Israel's imminent "genocide and destruction of the Palestinian people and prevent mass slaughter" in the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.
"States must urgently and immediately intervene to stop Israel's blood shed, uphold their obligations under the Geneva Convention and in line with the International Court of Justice's Preventative Measures Order, including by immediately imposing sanctions and an arms embargo."
The State of Palestine calls Gaza a " slaughterhouse" and slams Israel's deliberate mass murder, forced starvation and the displacement of 1.3 million Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip, which the Palestinian State points out are composed mostly of children, with Israel's actions in the city of Rafah being described as "the most barbaric and savage of all."
"Israel, the occupying power, and those who provide it with the diplomatic, military and political cover are complicit in this genocide and are defying their obligations under International Law, as well as the ruling of the International Court of Justice."
The administration of the State of Palestine calls on global leaders, who it says have a "historic responsibility" to prevent Israel from launching its immenent genocidal ground invasion of Rafah and the "foreseeable apocalyptic consequences".
The administration added that "expressing concern without taking determined effective" action against the Israeli occupation is tantamount to a "moral and political failure".

Jake Sherman (with Punchbowl News) tweeted:
Breaking News--In a reversal, Speaker Johnson will put a bill on the floor to send $17.6 billion to Israel with no corresponding spending cuts, a reversal meant to preempt the Senate's border-and-national-security supplemental. Here's a letter from Johnson to the House GOP: https://pbwl.news/xx3 ...This plan is a shift for Johnson. The House passed a bill that tied Israel aid to domestic spending cuts. Senate leaders plan to release their supplemental spending bill this weekend. In the letter, Johnson said the House would not give "swift consideration" to that legislation.
Reporter Mehdi Hasan quote-tweeted:
Seventeen. Point. Six. Billion. Dollars. I would love to see polling on how many Americans agree with sending this much of their taxpayer money - more than the entire budgets of several U.S. states - to a foreign nation that the ICJ has said is plausibly committing genocide.

Michael Fakhri, the UN's Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food, calls out the nations of the world at the UN Human Rights Council, even those allegedly supporting Palestine, for doing nothing to stop the starvation of Gaza.
