A reminder about Palestine:

Firstly, the existence of the country of Palestine was never in question. And secondly, as per the UK's own words in the oft-referred to "foundational" "Balfour Declaration":

"NOTHING SHALL BE DONE WHICH MAY PREJUDICE THE CIVIL AND RELIGIOUS RIGHTS OF EXISTING NON-JEWISH COMMUNITIES IN PALESTINE."

Plain as day.

How the Junta faked the death of a Leftist Woman Leader

One of the cruelest, dirty tricks of Junta psychological warfare was faking the death of a high ranking Montoneros woman leader Esther Norma Arrostito. It was reported in all the newspapers that she had died a heroic martyrdom in a shootout with the Junta.

As part of their misogynist treatment of women leaders, as human trophies, they actually kept her alive and used her as a tool to break the spirit of her comrades who admired her as a heroic martyr. As part of their patriarchal machismo ideology they believed that being lead by women was a weakness of the egalitarian Left. The Junta attempted to exploit this "weakness" for singling out women leaders for intense humiliation in front of their comrades. Faking her death in a heroic battle so she would be worshipped as a martyr first, was a way of intensifying this contrast. Comrades with absolute faith in her incorruptibility would be demoralized when their dead martyr was dragged out in chains and skimpy underwear.

"They kept her in the ESMA chained and in sight of other kidnapped people to make a dent in their morale."

The military faked her death in order to keep Montoneros in the belief that a lot of compromising information had been lost with her. Arrostito, however, endured more than a year of torture and humiliation without betraying her comrades.

Nothing new under the sun

Mexico's Dirty War in Guerrero saw army abuses reign supreme: disappearances, torture, rape. Brave voices, like Pompeya Muñoz Rentería, dared to break silence, exposing atrocities despite fear and government impunity. Their stories, unearthed from archives.

The plan IS genocide

Everything else is window dressing, posturing, slowrolling and denying.

Stop the invasion of Gaza. Free 🇵🇸

Hundreds of thousands of people came out today in London to March for a Free Palestine. Hundreds of thousands of people disagreeing with the current government stance on the war. Don’t let the media fool you, people in the UK stand with Palestine.

Oh, lots of things. "Kissinger helped to prolong the Vietnam War and expand that conflict into neutral Cambodia; facilitated genocides in Cambodia, East Timor, and Bangladesh; accelerated civil wars in southern Africa; and supported coups and death squads throughout Latin America. He had the blood of at least 3 million people on his hands, according to his biographer Greg Grandin. 

There were “few people who have had a hand in as much death and destruction, as much human suffering, in so many places around the world as Henry Kissinger,” said veteran war crimes prosecutor Reed Brody.

A 2023 investigation by The Intercept found that Kissinger — perhaps the most powerful national security adviser in American history and the chief architect of U.S. war policy in Southeast Asia from 1969 to 1975 — was responsible for more civilian deaths in Cambodia than was previously known, according to an exclusive archive of U.S. military documents and interviews with Cambodian survivors and American witnesses."- from The Intercept, Nick Turse.

Lots of dead bodies in his wake. On every continent except Antarctica (he's probably killed people there too and just covered it up).

He helped get right-wing dictatorships in Chile and Argentina installed. He did lots of Very Bad Things.

“Not that I’m complaining (quite on the contrary, actually), but you couldn’t have waited for two more minutes until the end of the battle to do that, sir.”

“How could I, with you giving me a smile like that, my dear?”

“...fine. I’ll allow it, this once. Sir.”

“:)”
