With international attention focused on Israel’s genocide in Gaza, Israel is violently and rapidly stealing more and more Palestinian land in the West Bank.

Israel’s most genocidal leaders are seeing through plans to force as many Palestinians out of their homes as possible in order to ensure they can never return.

“For every country that unilaterally recognizes a Palestinian state, we will establish a [illegal] settlement,” said Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich.

Let’s be clear, stealing Palestinians land has been Israel’s goal since day 1. It’s illegal, it’s wrong, and it must be stopped.

No one is above international law. The Biden administration should be pushing Israel to abide by international law, not enabling its war crimes against Palestinians.

Like all people, Palestinians deserve to be safe and free in their homes.

Palestinian educators have previously told Middle East Eye that Israeli authorities were aiming to eliminate its curriculum in favour of the Israeli version, in an attempt to erode Palestinian identity and "distort" history. 

Academic content Israel has sought to censor, they said, includes the logo of the Palestinian Authority, the Palestinian flag, lessons that discuss the Palestinian struggle against occupation, the right of return and prisoners, settlements, the immigration of settlers to Palestine, military checkpoints, the intifada, displaced villages, and considering Zionism a racist political movement.

Give Genocide A Chance

“We Never Wanted To See A Diplomatic Resolution With HAMAS”

The U.S. and Israel NEVER wanted a cease-fire, nor peace.

Negotiations in bad-faith, in order to give Israel more time to murder Palestinians and completely Demolish Gaza.

This is for those people who try to pretend that October 7th was the start of it all (or that the events of that day exist in a vacuum). People need to be reminded of the history.

Rise of SETTLER VIOLENCE & POGROMS in OCCUPIED West Bank

Human Rights Watch said in their latest report that the Israeli military either took part in or did not protect Palestinians from violent settler attacks in the West Bank, which have displaced people from 20 communities and have “entirely uprooted at least seven communities since October 7, 2023”. HRW has documented cases of assault, torture and sexual violence against Palestinians at the hands of settlers. The organisation also spoke of the stealing of Palestinians’s belongings and livestock, as well as death threats if they do not leave permanently and destructions of homes and schools under the pretext of the ongoing war in Gaza. “Many Palestinians, including entire communities, have fled their homes and lands,” the report said. “The military has not assured displaced residents that it will protect their security or allow them to return, forcing them to live in precarious conditions elsewhere.”

OCTOBER 3 2018 - "Israeli settlers flooded Khan Al-Ahmar with waste water, storming the Palestinian Bedouin village and confronting residents."

"The settlers came from the illegal Israeli settlement of Kfar Adumim, located east of Jerusalem in the occupied West Bank. They stormed the village of Khan Al-Ahmar but were confronted by international and local activists, along with residents of the village, the Palestine Chronicle reported. However, the settlers “managed to flood the area with wastewater before activists and residents were able to stop them,” the report added."

"Local Palestinians shared images of the flooding on social media, with the waste water clearly visible against the otherwise arid landscape."

"Khan Al-Ahmar has been slated for demolition this week, after an Israeli court gave the residents of the village until 1 October to evacuate their homes. The demolition is expected imminently, with the delay thought to be due only to Jewish holidays taking place earlier this week."

"Israel’s policies of settling Israeli civilians in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, wantonly destroying property and forcibly transferring Palestinians living under occupation, violate the Fourth Geneva Convention and are war crimes listed in the statute of the International Criminal Court." - Amnesty International

Amnesty added: “Since 1967, Israel has forcibly evicted and displaced entire communities and demolished more than 50,000 Palestinian homes and structures.”

Situated east of Jerusalem in the occupied West Bank, Khan Al-Ahmar is home to Al-Jahhalin Bedouins who are refugees from the Negev desert. They have lived in the area since their displacement by the Israeli army in 1967. Israel has refused to recognise Al-Jahhalin Bedouin communities or grant them building permits, a strategy often used by Israel to term any Bedouin home illegal.

Bassem Youssef: "Israel always victimises itself, and I have never seen a victim putting their oppressor under siege and bombing them 24/7 .

Israel wants you to believe that they are the victim.

Dealing with Israel is so difficult it's like being in a relationship with a narcissistic psychopath: he fucks you up, and then he makes you think it's your fault.

You look at Israel as Superman, but they're really Homelander-

They are shooting fish in a barrel, and they are annoyed with the splashes."

- Important to remind ourselves of this perfectly accurate description and the complete clarity it brings every now and then, especially as the oppressors still continue to play the victim while blatantly carrying out the most horrific genocide against literal innocents of an entire country. Especially as the ICJ hearings are underway. Don't let your perception of them get distorted. They really are this horrific. None of this is an exaggeration.

Listening to the ICJ hearing on israel's illegal occupation of Palestine and the Netherlands speaker is making me lose my mind. He's spent who knows how long just talking about laws and someone breaching them with NO statement on who is doing what. Whoever this person is, is a mood:

Meet the REAL TERRORISTS that the Western Leaders do not want you to know about

Israel's far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich called for the "complete destruction" of the Gaza Strip as he hit out against truce talks between the government and Hamas.

Writing on X, formerly known as Twitter, Smotrich said negotiating with Hamas was irresponsible and members of the group should be killed instead.

"The time has come for the Mossad to return to doing what it was trained to do - to eliminate the heads of Hamas all over the world and not in negotiations that are conducted irresponsibly and harm Israel's security," he said.

"With Hamas from now on we should only talk with shells and bombs." He said Israel needed to attack Rafah "as fast and as strongly as possible, and then continue with the strip until its complete destruction".

Israeli media reported on Wednesday that a ground invasion of southern Rafah appeared imminent, with preparations being put in place to expel tens of thousands of displaced Palestinians who are crowded into the city.
