The De-Nazification Of Gaza

Finally Israel has managed to kill terrorists in Gaza.

A prominent British-Palestinian surgeon who worked in Gaza during the first few weeks of Israel's war on the besieged enclave says he was barred from entering France for a speaking engagement at the French Senate on Saturday morning. Writing on X, Ghassan Abu Sitta said French authorities had told him that Germany had banned him from entering Europe for one year after German police barred him from entering the country earlier this month.

Germany is having a normal one.

Dr Sitta has been invited to the Palestine Conference in Berlin, but was stopped at the airport and deported.

The conference also came under attack.

Eventually, police shut down the conference and kicked everyone out.

He is the third person to be arrested today, two of them Jewish. The announcement comes after police stormed the speakers' stage just 20 minutes after the congress had begun, shut down the organizers' livestream and then broke into the control room and shut off the power. Police then went round to each delegate and demanded they stop livestreaming from their phones. 900 police are deployed to the congress, whose start they held up for hours. They demanded that organizers allow all German media into the congress, ironically to "safeguard free speech" and then denied entry to most of the registered delegates. The primary aim of the congress was to raise awareness about Germany's complicity in Israel's genocide, for which it is facing charges in the ICJ.

"Part of our resistance to the finality of genocide is for us to talk about tomorrow, plan for tomorrow, work on healing the wounds of our people. The aim of this war is that there would [be] no Palestinian tomorrow. We own tomorrow. Tomorrow is a Palestinian day." --Palestinian doctor Ghassan Abu Sitta

The medical workers of Gaza have been an inspiration. As those outside of Gaza watch families rush to hospitals after bombings with their loved ones in shreds in their arms, medical workers must greet those people and their horrifying injuries. Armed with little more than Tylenol and a cellphone flashlight, doctors tend to the worst imaginable injuries.

This genocide has popularized the term Wounded Child, No Surviving Family (WCNSF), as more than 100,000 Gazan children have had one or both parents killed by Israel. More than thousands of children make up the largest ever new cohort of pediatric amputees. But it's not just the children grievously injured and bereft, though I have seen the brains of multiple children. It is every person, loved or unknown bombed or shot to bits. It is the medics, but it is also the men digging through rubble with their bare fingers, the people shaking in tents, those walking miles for water-- these sumud, steadfast people deserve our attention and action.

Palestinian-British plastic and reconstructive surgeon Ghassan Abu Sitta has been vindicated after an application by the General Medical Council to suspend him from practicing medicine was strongly rejected by the Interim Orders Tribunal. The complaint was filed by pro-Israel lobby group UK Lawyers For Israel (UKLFI), claiming that posts he had allegedly made on social media impaired his fitness to practice medicine, and sought for his medical license to be suspended. Ghassan Abu Sitta rose to prominence as one of the doctors treating patients in Gaza in the early weeks of Israel's war on the enclave.

@GhassanAbuSitt1: Despite the unbearable pain and suffering, the heart wrenching grief and the sea of blood, tears , of severed limbs and broken bodies. I believe that we are closer today to victory than we have been since the process of Nakba began 75 years ago. Hasta La Victoria Siempre

Ghassan Abu Sittah calls out German state as 'accomplices to crime of genocide

British-Palestinian doctor Ghassan Abu Sittah, who has become known for his work in Gaza's hospital, spoke outside of the German embassy in London after being detained and deported from Germany while trying to attend a conference where he would present evidence on the war in Gaza and his witness statement as a doctor working in its hospitals.

oggi, 17 maggio 2024, roma, cineforum palestina: gaza - nakba - catastrofe

Per ricordare la Nakba a 76 anni dalla “catastrofe”, il genocidio del popolo palestinese espulso dalle sue terre con la violenza – 750.000 persone nel 1948, altre migliaia nel 1967 – e per riflettere sulla ulteriore catastrofe in corso a Gaza e in Cisgiordania, si tiene nella sala Zavattini dell’Archivio Audiovisivo del Movimento Operaio e Democratico ETS (via Ostiense 106, Roma), in…

Dr Ghassan Abu Sitta had his travel ban imposed by Germany overturned!

TRAVEL BAN OVERTURNED @GhassanAbuSitt1 has won a huge victory as lawyer Alexander Gorski, ICJP lawyers and @ELSClegal succeeded in challenging Germany's Schengen-wide travel ban on the war surgeon. After returning from working in Gaza hospitals, and as a witness to war crimes, Professor Ghassan faced hostile press and eventually a travel ban by German authorities. He was deprived of his freedom of expression and freedom to travel when he was refused entry to France, Netherlands and Germany as he tried to spread the word about the war crimes he witnessed. Now, with the ban overturned, Ghassan should be able to travel freely around the Schengen area once again.

He, also, previously said this regarding the Israeli bombing of The Baptist Hospital, on Oct. 17th 2023:

"In choosing the Baptist hospitale, the Israelis chose the hospital with the most international connections. The Baptist Hospital is run by the World Council of Churches, and it is connected to the Evangelical Church in Britain. They chose that hospital to see how much international dissension & outrage their campaign to destroy the health system in Gaza Strip will face. In the span of half an hour after the massacre and with the blind acceptance of western media to the Israeli story that is was a misfired Hamas missile, even though the international organizations and media that ran that story did not talk to any survivors, doctors, injured people or their families, that was the international community's message to Israel to go forth with their plan."

"And this is a war — from the very beginning, this was a war Israel declared on Palestinian children. You know, Israel wants to wipe out Palestinian children, because Palestinian children represent the Palestinian tomorrow that is incompatible with the Zionist settler-colonial project."--DR.
