I have this fear that Palestine is going to become another "lost" civilization.

Israel is erasing them. Wiping them off the face of the earth. Not only are they killing thousands of them, they are destroying their towns, landmarks, buildings, fucking olive trees.

Israel is erasing Palestine. And in the future, people are going to forget they existed.

No.

I want to remember.

I want all of us to remember. Please. Don't lose hope. Don't forget about them.

Gerald Kaufman (1930-2017🙏🏼🌹🕊️), British MP, speaking from the rostrum of Parliament in 2009.

Gerald Kaufman was the son of Polish Jewish immigrants. Born in the UK, Kaufman was one of the country's most famous Jewish politicians. He was also a fervent critic of Israel, calling for sanctions against the Jewish state for its policies towards the Palestinians, and comparing Israeli soldiers to Nazis.

For years, Kaufman has been one of Britain's most outspoken critics of Israel.

In April 2002, at the start of Israel's Operation Rampart to halt the wave of suicide bombings in the country's cities, Kaufman declared Israel an "international pariah" and accused then-Prime Minister Ariel Sharon of ordering "his troops to use barbaric methods against the Palestinians", according to the BBC.

Kaufman, who was Foreign Secretary between 1987 and 1992, told the House of Commons in 2002 that it was "time to remind Sharon that the Star of David belongs to all Jews and not to his repulsive government. His actions sully the Star of David with blood."

In 2004, in an editorial published in the Guardian, he called for economic sanctions against Israel similar to those used against South Africa.

In 2009, during the war between Israel and Hamas, Operation Cast Lead, he accused Israel of exploiting Holocaust guilt to justify its actions in the Gaza Strip.

"The current Israeli government ruthlessly and cynically exploits the guilt of gentiles [non-Jews] after the murder of Jews during the Holocaust as justification for its murders of Palestinians," Kaufman had declared before Parliament.

Speaking of his personal history as the son of Jewish refugees from Poland, he had said that "my grandmother was in bed, sick, when the Nazis came to her town. A German soldier shot her in her bed. My grandmother did not die to provide cover for Israeli soldiers murdering Palestinian grandmothers in Gaza."

Kaufman had compared Hamas fighters to Jewish resistance fighters in the Second World War, claiming that "Israeli army spokesman Major Leibovich was asked about Israeli murders of, at the time, 800 Palestinians. The total is now 1,000. She replied instantly that '500 of them were militants'. That's the response of a Nazi. I suppose the Jews fighting for their lives in the Warsaw ghetto could have been considered militants."

His opposition to Israel has persisted with age. In 2012, he had written an editorial published by the Huffington Post claiming that Israel was a "rogue state", and that the fact that Israel is a democracy "means that the Israeli electorate is complicit in its government's war crimes."

In 2015, he had told the Palestine Return Centre, a Hamas-affiliated association, that "Jewish money" was the reason why British Conservatives were pro-Israel.

don't stop talking about palestine

An innocent Palestinian was shot to death by a settler while others were filming & mocking him. How could a "human" do such atrocity? Such a horrible, inhumane, injust act wouldn't lead to a reaction similar to Al-Aqsa Flood?

A reminder that not all Jews are Zionists and support Israel.

Just because that person follows the religion, doesn't mean they support the war crimes. I have friends that are Jewish and support Palestine, the amount of backlash I have seen because of it is INSANE.

A majority of the backlash, however, is from Zionists. A Zionist even said to one of my friends "You're not a true Jew, you're a Nazi in disguise!"(Tf???)

Another reminder that anti-Semitism supporters are NOT welcomed on my blog. I lost count of how many Nazis I blocked at this point.

A final reminder in this post is that there are JEWISH PEOPLE IN PALESTINE. THEY TOO ARE GETTING BOMBED AND KILLED BY ISRAEL. Palestine is NOT strictly Muslim or Arab, as there are Jews, Christians, and Black Palestinians.

Free Jerusalem on Twitter:

We just crashed Jerusalem's Purim street party with flyers that look like what the army is dropping in Gaza before (some) bombings.

English:

1) 32,000 people were killed by the Israeli army since October, and over a million suffer from starvation. [...ENGLISH...] Stop the Slaughter Now!

2) URGENT WARNING!

To the residents of West Jerusalem: Nahlaot Rehavia, Nayot and Neve Shaanan.

You are in a dangerous combat zone!

The Israeli army is fighting in your place of residence.

For your safety, flee immediately and evacuate to a known shelter.

Anyone in this zone exposes themselves to danger and every house in use will become a target.

Israeli Army

* That's what the messages the Israeli army sends on gaza look like.

I swear once you start digging out their crimes you'll dig to hell and back.

This article is more that 24 years old

i've seen more death in the past month than anyone should ever see. and that's just fucking videos. imagine dealing with that in person.

and it's not even just the mass death--think about it. babies murdered before they could say their first words. children killed before they could even graduate school. adults killed before having a family, fulfilling their dreams, goals, etc.

there's people grieving in gaza. whether it be over family or friends, new people join the grievers every single day. hell, hour.

and on top of that, they're constantly worrying. will they die tonight? how much longer will they live? who's next? where's the next meal coming from? i wonder how much longer this has to go on.

you all are so brave. i would be terrified to have to deal with that--not that they aren't terrified. that they're still fighting.

so we need to fight, too.

for gaza.

Palestinian activists get their message across on Londons iconic Tower Bridge landmark- one of the cities most historic buildings. We need a ceasefire now.
