#german fund genocide

[necronomeconomicism]

Ok gotta talk about it.

As a Jewish historian, I fucking hate Israel in ways most probably will never be able to comprehend. I'm going to try and explain it anyways. The central creation myth of Israel is that it is Jewish, and then consequently, that Israel is a part of Jewishness. Its easy to simply state this is false, but fully comprehending this and putting it into practice in thought and deed seems rare to me.

The evil at the heart of this violence predates the recent acceleration of genocide. Israel is a colony, and more than that, an antisemitic fraud itself. After WW2, when Israel was being founded, the Jews of Europe generally did not wave goodbye to their neighbors and head to the promised land. Many were expelled from their homes. Zionism itself, as an action, was a false choice at the time. A mere excuse to place an ally in the middle east, and an excuse to complete the expulsion and destruction of the European Jew. The Zionist Jew is more than complicit in this, they actively seek the destruction and assimilation of all other Jews.

Many fail to realize, and largely because of Israel, that Jews are not inherently white, Ashkenazi, European-descended people. Our faith and culture has an immense variety that is spread all across the globe. Jewishness, in population and volume of culture, exists more so outside of Israel than within it. Israel is for a very specific kind of Jew. The kind that lets Yiddish die, that attaches themselves to European things, that makes themselves and their practices as white as possible.

And they have the nerve, the fucking belligerent GALL, to frame themselves as the necessary saviors of our people. To the Zionist, questioning Israel is to question Jewishness itself. They bake adoration for the colonial machine into their very prayers, and push them on us even as children. To *not* oppress, to *not* kill, to *not* genocide, is to invite death. This is the core of fascistic thought, of course. "Kill them before they kill us." And they KNOW this too, they really do. The truth of that irony does not matter, because as is true for all fascists, the truth itself does not matter to them. They wanted this, they wanted this even before the British saw it in their best interest to give them the land. Any excuse to RETVRN, as the neo-nazis say of Rome, or the German Empire, or whatever the fuck stupid country they want to poorly animate the corpse of. Some select Zionists even *sided with the fucking Nazis* in agreement they should abandon Europe to colonize Palestine. (Haavara Agreement)

My people have proved time and time and time again you don't need a nation state to have an enduring culture. We have protected ourselves for thousands of years without the help of these spiteful, doom-saying maniacs. I was going to post something like this on Passover, but that would be hypocritical. The state of Israel doesn't actually have shit to do with Jewishness. Hear Israel (the state and supporters, Israel the icon) I should outlive it long enough to bury it. (old yiddish curse)

Free Palestine. Donate what you can, they need it right now.

Transcript:

Hi everyone, this is Bisan from Gaza. I am still alive, and it's been a while since the last time I posted.

I was just trying to realize the new reality. You know, there's no bombing, but a lot of restrictions in the movement. No supplies, no Internet, no electricity, massive destruction we need to deal with...yeah, and a lot of things.

But I have a lot of updates, [of course] besides the, you know, the bullshit about the German guy (Donald Trump) meeting the Polish occupier (Benjamin Netanyahu) discussing on a stolen land, the Turtle Island, that Gazans must flee their land so other random rich people can sit in.

Besides all of this, the updates are:

First, the Israeli army withdrew from Netzarim checkpoint. So, actually for 15 months they have been telling the world that this is a strategic step, and they will not withdraw from Netzarim crosspoint, and that they will allow the settlers, the Israeli settlers, to enter to the settlements in Gaza Strip using this road. But Subhanallah, Subhanallah, they withdrew and the landowners got back to their lands in the north and around Netzarim checkpoint. That's the first thing.

The second thing is that, OK, OK… [Like], the world happily celebrated the ceasefire, the moments of joy while Palestinians are returning, are claiming their homes, while we're crying, happiness tears, but now it's time to point again to to the main problem.

Actually, we are still in… We're still facing the same dangerous displacement and, let me say, forcibly immigration, actually. It's not a voluntary immigration because there is no rebuilding. There's not even tents for people to survive this winter, to survive the new getting back to their…to the north, to their areas, but… in other words, displacement, because no homes to get back to.

So we're still living this. It's really hard to survive this.

So now it's time, first, to put Israel, the Israeli regime, the Israeli occupation, accountable for all of this, to put the Polish guy (Benjamin Netanyahu) discussing the fleeing, the emptying of Gaza Strip, in jail because this is his place, because he's a war criminal. This is time to rebuild Gaza. This is time to enter Gaza by foreign workers, by [foreign] journalists, by the people of Gaza who evacuated during the genocide, and now until this moment, they cannot get back to Gaza again.

So this is, yeah, this is time. [Enough]. Enough cheering, enough happiness, because what happened and what's still happening is a genocide, OK? It's not a turn off-turn on mode. No, no, no. It's a genocide. And everyone must be accountable for what they have done.

The occupation, the international organizations, the occupation, the [genocide] supporters... Even the companies that supported the genocide, supported the weapons, supported the the Israeli regime economically. So it's time.

If it's not time now, then it will not be the time to put all of these people, to hold all of them responsible. And another thing, if we didn't do it now, then everything we have done as Palestinians, and you have done as people supporting the Palestinian people, is in vain. Everything is for nothing.

We don't want to just forget what what they have done, what the Israeli army has done, what the Israeli regime, ministers, supporters, what the U.S., what everyone [who] funded the genocide has done, okay?

It's time to hold them responsible to make sure that this will not happen again, and that Gaza and Palestine will just be free and will be rebuilt.

[Let's go], let's continue.

But Germany’s performances of repentance have their limits. They do not extend, for example, to the genocide the German colonial army committed in Namibia against Herero and Nama people between 1904 and 1908, killing tens of thousands. Germany did not officially apologize for those bloody acts until 2021 and has not agreed to pay meaningful reparations to descendants of the victims. If the new German identity relies on isolating the Holocaust as a shameful aberration in national history and nullifying it via solemn remembrance, there is little room for the memory of colonial violence in the nation’s self-mythology. Genocide scholar Dirk Moses named this approach the “German catechism” in a 2021 essay that sparked heated debate. “The catechism implies a redemptive story in which the sacrifice of Jews in the Holocaust by Nazis is the premise for the Federal Republic’s legitimacy,” wrote Moses. “That is why the Holocaust is more than an important historical event. It is a sacred trauma that cannot be contaminated by profane ones—meaning non-Jewish victims and other genocides—that would vitiate its sacrificial function.”

Accordingly, Germany now sees its post-Holocaust mandate as encompassing not a broader commitment against racism and violence but a specific fealty to a certain Jewish political formation: the State of Israel. Germany has relied on its close diplomatic relationship to Israel to emphasize its repudiation of Nazism, but its connection to the Jewish state goes even further. In 2008, then-chancellor Angela Merkel addressed the Israeli Knesset to declare that ensuring Israel’s security was part of Germany’s “Staatsraison,” the state’s very reason for existence. If asked why it is worth preserving a German nationalism that produced Auschwitz, Germany now has a pleasing, historically symmetrical answer—it exists to support the Jewish state.

To that end, in recent years, Germany’s laudable apparatus for public cultural funding has been used as a tool for enacting a 2019 Bundestag resolution declaring that the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement targeting Israel is antisemitic. Although the resolution is technically nonbinding, its passage has led to an unending stream of firings and event cancellations, and to the effective blacklisting of distinguished academics, cultural workers, artists, and journalists for offenses like inviting a renowned scholar of postcolonialism to speak, tweeting criticism of the Bundestag resolution, or having attended a Palestinian solidarity rally in one’s youth. A network of antisemitism commissioners—a system explored in this issue in a feature by Peter Kuras—has been deputized to monitor such offenses. These commissioners are typically white, Christian Germans, who speak in the name of the Jews and often playact Jewishness on a public stage, posing for photo ops in yarmulkes, performing Jewish music, wearing the uniform of the Israeli police, and issuing decrees on who is next in the pillory. When they tangle with left-wing Jews in Germany, canceling their events and attacking them as antisemites in the pages of various newspapers, they suggest what Germany’s antisemitism commissioner Felix Klein has said directly: That the Jews are not being sensitive enough to what antisemitism means to the Germans—that, in fact, these Jews do not understand antisemitism at all. In a perverse twist, the fact that the Germans were the most successful antisemites in history has here become a credential. By becoming the Jews’ consummate protectors, Germans have so thoroughly absorbed the moral lessons bestowed by Jewish martyrdom that they have no more need for the Jew except as symbol; by the logic of this strange supersessionism, Germans have become the new Jews. This is not only a matter of rhetorical authority on Jewish matters but is also often literal, as this self-reflexive philosemitism has led to a wave of German converts to Judaism. According to Tzuberi, “The Jewish revival is desired precisely because it is a German revival.”

If Jews are negated by this formulation, Palestinians are villainized by it. Last year, when the German state banned Nakba Day demonstrations, only days after the murder of Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, police justified this suppression by claiming, in a familiar racist trope, that protesters would not have been able to contain their violent rage. Indeed, in Germany Palestinian identity itself has become a marker of antisemitism, scarcely to be spoken aloud—even as the country is home to the largest Palestinian community in Europe, with a population of around 100,000. “Whenever I would mention that I was Palestinian, my teachers were outraged and said that I should refer to [Palestinians] as Jordanian,” one Palestinian German woman speaking of her secondary school education told the reporter Hebh Jamal. Palestinianness as such has thus been stricken from German public life. In The Moral Triangle, a 2020 anthropological study of Palestinian and Israeli communities in Germany by Sa’ed Atshan and Katharina Galor, many Palestinians interviewed said that to speak of pain or trauma they’ve experienced due to Israeli policy is to destroy their own futures in Germany. “The Palestinian collective body is inscribed as ontologically antisemitic until proven otherwise. Palestinians, in this sense, are collateral damage of the intensifying German wish for purification from antisemitism,” wrote Tzuberi.

All are traitors to Israel

USA is Israel's little bitch!

[the-garbanzo-annex-jr]

By Olivia Reingold

Here are just three individuals highlighted in the report.

Mohammad Hannoun, a 62-year-old Jordan native who the report describes as “the epicenter of Italian actors operating or sympathizing with Hamas,” has sent at least $4 million to the terrorist group over the past decade via the Charity Association of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. The U.S. Treasury Department recently said the Italy-based organization, which Hannoun founded in 1994, “ostensibly raises funds for humanitarian purposes, but in reality helps bankroll Hamas’s military wing.” Just three days after October 7 of last year, Hannoun told an Italian journalist that Hamas’s invasion of Israel was “self-defense.” Hannoun, who lives in the northern Italian city of Genoa, has helped promote anti-Israel rallies throughout the Mediterranean country on his Facebook page, often posting about what he calls a “Nazi Zionist genocide in Palestine.”

Majed Al-Zeer, who has been co-designated as a Hamas operative by the U.S. and Israel, is “the mastermind of the Hamas-affiliated activity” in the UK and Germany, according to the report. In 1996, Al-Zeer, a 62-year-old British-Jordanian citizen, founded the Palestinian Return Centre, which lobbies British Parliament and holds a special status at the UN that allows its members to attend meetings and “mobilize support for the Palestinian cause in the UK and overseas.” In 2010, Israel declared the Palestinian Return Centre an “unlawful association,” stating that “it is part of the Hamas movement.” Even though German authorities have identified the Palestinian Return Centre as a likely front for Hamas activity, Al-Zeer continues to live and organize anti-Israel rallies in Berlin, where he moved from the UK in 2014.

Amin Abou Rashed, who Dutch authorities arrested last year for allegedly sending about $6 million to Hamas, has a pattern of “hiding behind politics” and “alleged humanitarian efforts” to “promote Hamas’s ideology” through purported charities like the now-defunct Al-Aqsa Foundation. According to the report, Rashed gained asylum to the Netherlands in 1992, and has been pictured with now-deceased Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh and other officials for the terrorist group. 

The report identifies five European countries where Hamas is most active outside of Gaza: the UK, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Belgium. (via European Leadership Network)

The European Leadership Network was able to link these charities and individuals to Hamas through publicly available information such as social media posts and nonprofit registration filings. Mark Sachs, a U.S.-based director of the European Leadership Network, told me “most of the world has absolutely no idea what is taking place right beneath their noses.” 

“It is essential that we in the West start to wake up to how deeply embedded this infrastructure is and how sophisticated Hamas is in taking advantage of the West,” Sachs said.

U.S. regulators have estimated that since early 2024, Hamas has received as much as $10 million a month from these fraudulent groups, most of which are located in Europe, according to the U.S. Treasury Department. 

“Hamas has exploited the suffering in Gaza to solicit funds through sham and front charities that falsely claim to help civilians in Gaza,” the U.S. Treasury Department said last week. “Hamas considers Europe to be a key source of fundraising and has maintained representation across the continent for many years in part to raise funds through sham charities.”

[the-light-of-stars]

just checked the site of Germany's biggest publically funded news network and saw this article:

"Why pro-palestinian posts are dominating"

And their arguments for why there are more pro-palestinian posts than pro-israeli posts - something they condemn as obfuscation of facts , false narratives and antisemitism btw - are absolutely baffling.

Not once do they consider that maybe people see Israel dropping hundreds of bombs a day, murdering thousands of people, dropping white phosphorus, starving an entire population, bombing hospitals and ambulances, killing members of international aid agencies, killing specifically journalists, cutting off electricity and cell service, causing the spread of typhus and cholera by restricting access to clean water and medical help, directly stating their genocidal intent again and again - all of which has been condemned by international organisations like Doctors without Borders and WHO, has been called a genocide by the UN and recently even has been called terrorism by the Pope himself - that people see this , see western politicians completely on the side of those committing the genocide and think this is untenable and try to do what they can to at least spread awareness.

No they did not consider that, not once, instead their arguments for "the dominance of pro-palestine sentiments online" are that "there are more muslims than jews worldwide" , "most people from the middle east are antisemitic", "hamas is spreading propaganda online" and "young people are foolish and easily lead astray by echo chambers" .

And they complain about there not being as many posts in the "pro-israel" and "free israel" tags , saying that it "shows an unprofessional antisemitic bias" and call for the EU to "do something" against all the pro-palestine posts, and to instead make social media sites push pro-israel stances harder. They treat pro-palestine stances as not objective and 'fake news' influenced by the narratives of 'terrorist idolisers' while pro-israel statements are treated as trustworthy, objective and morally good and necessary. They complain why there isn't the same outrage for the kidnapping victims as there is for the actual literal genocide happening, or rather they don't just complain why there isn't more outrage about the kidnapping victims, but about why there isn't more outrage for them than for the victims of the ongoing genocide.

"The user is in a so called "echo chamber" and gets a progressively one-sided view on the actually highly complicated theme complex, says Gust."

Because being angry about a genocide happening , with full funding and support of multiple western countries , means being "one sided" and being on the side of the victims instead of the side of the perpetrators (referring here of course to the israeli -and other - politicians and companies causing and supplying these attacks, not to hostages or civilians) means that you don't understand the "highly complex" theme complex of "a western ally is carpet bombing and starving a populace with the goal of ethnically cleansing the land they live on and multiple western countries fully support that" , surely all the people saying that genocide is bad and should stop have actually been brainwashed or are simply too stupid to try and see things from the angle of the politicians committing a genocide!

I might translate the whole article later but god german media is -ironically - so extremely one sided and biased it's insane.

[asynca]

Honestly, commit to doing what I have: one email and one phone call a day. Attend political rallies in (initially hidden) Free Gaza tshirts. Can you imagine if Kamala looks out and sees half the audience wearing Palestinian scarves and watermelons? Pressure works.

Support the legal funds of people sabotaging Elbit weapons factories. Support the funds of Palestinians in Gaza and The West Bank.

You can do so much. Don't do nothing. Especially don't celebrate genocidal politicians because it's personally better for you: PRESSURE THEM. You know what's going on. Don't be a German who turned a blind eye to what the Nazis were doing because you believed Hitler would be good for Germany in other ways.

[gryficowa]

For those who are denying the genocide in Palestine

"Genocide - a crime against humanity [1], including deliberate destruction of all or parts of nations, ethnic, religious or racial groups through [2]:

physical murder of group members; suspension of births within the group; creating living conditions calculated for physical destruction; forced reception of children"

"The term genocide (more precisely Genocide, which was later translated into genocide) [3] was introduced by the Polish lawyer Rafał Lemkin (1900–1959; after emigration to the US using the name Raphaël) in his work "Axis Rule in Occupied Europe" ("Axis governments in occupied Europe") published in 1944 in the US. It was used in the indictment in the Nuremberg trial against the leaders of Nazi Germany (although the card of the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg did not mention the Expressis Verbis genocide, but only crimes against humanity, whose qualified figure is genocide). The term genocide entered the legal language due to the UN Convention on the prevention and punishment of the crime of genocide signed on December 9, 1948, whose preliminary project was co -created by Rafał Lemkin.

Article II of the Convention defines genocide as an act "made in the intention of destruction in whole or part of national and ethnic groups, racial or religious, as such:

a) the murder of group members

b) causing serious bodily injury or disorder of the mental health of group members

c) deliberate creation for members of the group of living conditions, calculated to cause their total or partial physical destruction

d) use of funds, which are aimed at suspending the birthday within the group

e) forced transfer of groups of group members to another group "[4].

In the original version of the 1946 Convention, this definition also included crimes committed for "political" reasons, but they were removed due to pressure, including Soviet Union, Probably because of Stalin's fear of responsibility [5].

This convention indicates that not only genocide is punished, but also inciting him, participation, attempted his commitment and collusion to commit it. In order to effectively prosecute the crime, the punishment of guilty was announced regardless of their possession of state functions. The punishment for the crime of genocide was entrusted to the internal judiciary of the state-member states of the Convention and the International Judiciary, provided that the state is a member of this system. The UN Convention of November 26, 1968 includes genocide as a non -public crime [6].

Alain Besançon, a French political scientist, historian of sociology and philosophy, was defined by this concept: genocide in a proper sense, unlike ordinary slaughter, demands the following criterion: it is a sculpture intended as part of ideology, aimed at destroying a part of humanity to introduce its own concept of good. The destruction plan is to cover the entire group, even if it is not completely brought as a result of material impossibility or political return"

"The phenomenon itself is much older-examples of genocide are [who?] The destruction of half of the population, about 60 million Chinese during the Mongol conquests in the 13th century [8], or Jaiwing and Prussia through the Teutonic Knights in the 13th-19th centuries [9] [10], Death of almost one third of the Ireland population in the 17th century, As a result of the Cromwell campaign in Ireland [11]. Some authors also include the extermination of the Cathars during this type of crime during the crusades led by the Catholic Church [12] and the destruction of Wandei by government "hell columns" during the French Revolution [13]. In the 20th century, the genocide affected the Armenians, Assyrians and Pontanese Greeks in Turkey, Poles, many national minorities in the Soviet Union (Polish Operation NKVD or artificially caused hunger in Ukraine), in Africa and Asia, the Germans exterminated the Jewish population (Holocaust) and Gypsy (Porajmos).

The extermination of the population also took place during the colonization of the Americas, Where first on antics, the Spaniards led to the extermination of native people by forcing them to slave work, and later American pioneers in North America. In both cases, extermination was not in itself, but the result of the territorial expansion of Europeans in the lands of the new land. The situation was similar in the case of destroying the indigenous people in South America or Australia, where Aborigines died massively.

Often, however, the extinction of these ethnic groups was caused not only by forcing them to work hard or kill, but also by impossible to adapt to new cultural conditions introduced by Europeans. It cannot be clearly determined how purposeful and planned processes were, and to what extent they resulted from the unconscious of relevant institutions"

[allthegeopolitics]

Nicaragua has brought Germany before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) for violating the Genocide Convention through its continued military and political support of Israel. On Monday, the Nicaraguan delegation presented its case as part of a two-day hearing, accusing Germany of "facilitating the commission of genocide" and demanding the court impose emergency measures to halt German arms exports to Israel and reinstate funding for the UN Palestinian refugee agency, Unrwa. In his opening comments to the court, Nicaraguan Ambassador to the Netherlands Carlos Jose Arguello Gomez said that, through its continued support of Israel: "Germany is failing to honour its own obligation to prevent genocide or to ensure respect of international humanitarian law."

[kittyprincessofcats]

I'm honestly still trying to wrap my mind around the ICJ explicitly ordering that, among other things, more humanitarian aid has to be let into Gaza immediately, and most Western countries cutting funding to UNRWA a literal day later...

Heck, even German media, which deliberately ignored the whole "yes, this could be a genocide" part of the ICJ's decision and focused only on "no ceasefire, but more humanitarian aid" should be calling out that you can't just cut off humanitarian aid after being ordered to let in more humanitarian aid... like WTF, this is cartoonish levels of evil

It also:

violates the ICJ's decision and therefore international law

is a war crime (collective punishment)

directly violates the Genocide Convention article 2(c) "Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part"

[aingeal98]

There's something very nauseating about seeing people who claim to care about things like morals and human rights spreading positive posts about Biden. Kamala Harris was asked about the genocide her and Biden's administration is funding and supporting and she said well yes people care about it but they also care about grocery prices and it's so evil but it's true. Far too many people on this website would have posted about the big wins Hitler brought to the german economy and called themselves left leaning as they did so. You post about Biden formally apologising for the Native American genocide like wow what a good guy! And ignore how the same Native Americans protested him at that event because of his current genocide in Palestine. I don't have a big point here it's just really disheartening to see how so many Americans truly don't care about anything but themselves. Women's rights queer rights disabled rights all talk of justice and equality stops mattering as soon as the government does it to people they can deem subhuman and irrelevant. They'd let their government murder a thousand people without saying a word and then reblog five posts about how the Bush Cheney Dems are improving the economy and genuinely how do you live with yourself knowing that the only difference between you and a maga Republican is that your in group bubble is slightly bigger and more diverse. I really can't imagine having pride in such a fascist bloodthirsty nation and especially now when it's showing once again the level of violence and mass death it's capable of all just because it can. And yet every day I see people in deep denial that they and the community they live in are, in fact, the bad guys. Maybe you're not the outright racists but you're the ones looking away as your neighbours get dragged off and families hold candlelight vigils for their relatives slaughtered by your government because really, what could you do about it anyway? We have to take care of ourselves before we help the others. Which we will definitely do somehow at some point, but America First.

[theivorybilledwoodpecker]

"It's too risky for Harris to more strongly condemn the genocide!"

Risky for whom?

Not the Palestinians in Palestine

Not for the Palestinian Americans who have lost loved ones

Not the antigenocide protesters Harris has labeled as antisemitic

Not the people who have lost jobs and degrees because they condemned genocide

Not for the Muslim and Arab Americans who have faced increased levels of discrimination as the Biden administration has funded a genocide

Oh, for her?

Biden and the DNC will not withdraw their support now. They've sunk too much time and money into her, and to switch to a third new candidate would be humiliating.

She will never go hungry. If she were penniless, there would always be some restaurant owner willing to feed the vice president for publicity.

She will never go jobless. Even if she is unable to find her dream job, there will always be someone who will hire her.

She will never go penniless. If she is low on cash, she can sell an interview to a magazine.

She will always be guarded by the Secret Service.

Oh, you mean she might lose votes from genociders? So then it's not risky, it's just that condemning the genocide she helped create might be uncomfortable for her. That's selfish.

There were German politicians during WWII who refused to condemn the Holocaust out of fear. We see them as evil and selfish. Kamala Harris would not face anywhere close to the consequences those politicians were, and yet people are acting as though she's staying quiet out of some altruistic strategy.

[lady-byleth]

I'm sitting here, warm and safe in the house I've lived in for 25 years, and yet I have this strong feeling of wanting to go home

If you've ever seen me talk about Germany learning from it's past, about being a steadfast ally of the weak, please disregard every single word of this because Germany has learned jack shit

You'd think we could go 100 years without committing genocide but here we are, 120 on the dot after the Herero and Namaqua Genocide and we're on number fucking 3 because our raison d'état - the defence of Israel - apparently extends to just letting them do whatever

Germany is going to defend Israel in court, sending a frigate into the red sea and I had to learn from fucking twitter that there were protest everywhere in the country in support of Gaza today that the news didn't breathe a single word about

Since before the trial started there hasn't been any coverage of Gaza, any and all criticism of Israel is treated as antisemitism, even just using the word genocide is hate speech now

We're interfering with the red sea completely illegally so Israel can continue killing Palestinians unhindered while our own farmers are being bled dry. We have money to fund a genocide but not to feed our own people, it's incomprehensible

I...I don't even know what to say anymore. I'm so angry and frustrated, this is not what this country should stand for. This is not what it claims to stand for.

Just today I put a "Justice for Gaza" sign into the window. At the rate they're going it's gonna get me arrested.

Sorry, I don't know where I'm going with this, except maybe to say "Boycott the shit out of German products, this is the only language they understand"

They can try to silence us as much as they want but that doesn't mean we'll stay silent

From the River to the Sea Palestine will be Free

[christiansinglebabes]

This genocide has started way before oct 7th, israel is an occupying force that's been oppressing Palestinians for at least 50 years.

The 20% Palestinian population living in israel is subjected to apartheid, police violence and displacement from their homes.

They are not recognized as citizens, the ppl in gaza and the westbank cannot vote in israeli elections despite israel controlling those regions.

Gaza has been under siege for 16 years now. They've been controlling who goes in and out, Palestinians have to ask for permission to leave their cities even if they want to access medical care that isnt provided in gaza due to sanctions by israel.

Why does the financial interest of israel and its ally's trump the right of palestinian freedom? When the money they are making from military technologie is tested on the palestinians? Whats worse is that bombing of gaza has not just taken 33.000 lives, it has also poisoned and destroyed the land that israel claims it has a spiritual right to!

A land already drenched in the blood of thousands of palestinians spilled during and since the inception of israel in 1948. It has poisoned their future and made sure gaza will have to depend on aid for years and maybe even decades to come.

That is why Palestinians need to be able to return to their stolen land and they have a right to return home, even beyond legality israel is an ethno state that guarantees citizenship to -anyone- of the jewish faith even if they have no connection to the land.

What is the point of the UN and EU if we dont use our power to protect human rights everywhere, members of the UN like germany, france, USA and Britain actively funding the bombing of civilians, while claiming solidarity with the victims.

All this talking behind the scenes is doing nothing! Rn netanyahu is pulling back his forces from the south of gaza so they can take a nap, see their families, have a little snack and then go into rafah and kill the remaining 2.2 million Palestinians they told to flee there.

I am ashamed to be paying taxes in germany when that money is used for destruction instead of for the german population and I'm sick of the hypocrisy of western powers who have been exploiting africa and the middle east for decades while simultaneously condemning any and all resistance by the ppl they've oppressed labeling them terrorists.

Is the german state not a terrorist organization? Isnt the USA? Isnt NATO? Why is it that only the people that fight back against their opression with the same violence they've been shown by you are labeled terrorists.

Why was it so easy for you to condemn Russia in its attack on ukraine but you cant condemn israel for this genocide? I can tell you why, because Russia is an enemy and israel is a friend of yours. You only condemn oppressive states when it serves you and when the victims are white.

And while Netanyahu is a tyrant that needs to be dethroned dont be fooled, the issue with Israel is not Netanjahu, racist israeli society is what allowed a monster like him to power. His opposition are zionists just like him that are gleefully watching gaza be turned to dust and are happy to take over once netanyahu steps down, blame only him for the genocide and return to the status quo of opression of the west bank and gaza. 70% of israelis think the military actions taken in gaza are justified and the reason for that is because the only way to rationalize the existence of israel in Palestinian land is by assuming every palestinian is a threat to jewish life, that way no amount of cruelty is unjustified and can be done in self defense.

Why is it so hard to call this a genocide when Israeli officials have clearly stated on multiple occasions that their plan is to eliminate the possiblity of a palestinian state by killing or displacing the Palestinians, idf soldiers are filming snuff films and gleefully parade around womens underwear they stole out of the homes of the dead. How can you support a country like that?

When that support is putting world peace in danger by signaling that all these international laws here to protect us are all just suggestions you can ignore if you have enough money and allies.

U ask us to condemn hamas when u wont condemn the anti-apartheid state of israel, when hamas wouldnt exist without opression of the palestinians by israel.

While u sit in government trying to placate us with useless discussions and pretty words , children are being blown to pieces or left completely orphaned and severely physically and mentally disabled. Do u understand the impact this will have on the palestinian ppl even after this genocide ends? Do u really think they wont grow up hateful and resentful towards Israel? And can u blame them when they do? Now noone is arguing that hamas shouldnt be prosecuted for the human rights violations on oct 7th, however this one sided war on terror that doesnt rightfully classify the acts of western powers and their extensions in the middle east and africa as terror is hypocritical and an insult to our intelligence. This is not an equal struggle between israel and hamas, it is an ethnic cleansing of palestinians.

And to the media and politicians bastardizing the meaning of antisemitism, Criticizing Israel is not antisemitic, and saying that israel and jews are one and the same is what actually promotes antisemitism. Israel is a country and like every country it has to abide by international law,

Israel has been lying to its visitors and citizens since its inception, the jews who come to visit and the jewish israelis have been made to believe by zionists that israel is the only place they can be safe from antisemitism. But that couldnt be further from the truth, by israel declaring itself synonymous with the jewish ppl and their struggle while committing atrocities they are putting the global jewish community at risk and feeds the antisemitic conspiracy theories of a jewish opressive elite. We dont need an ethno state that pretends all jews are homogeneous, what we need is to make sure that jewish ppl are safe worldwide

Europe made this world unsafe for jews, Arabs and jews are not enemies,we are allies, my father grew up in a jewish neighboorhood in morroco and my best friend is jewish, she is my heart and she is my soul and I will not allow israel to drag her name and the name of jews through the mud!

A permanent ceasefire is not an end of what we demand and what the palestinians deserve, it is the bare minimum. And we will not allow the world to quietly reinstate support for israel after this genocide is over, we want an end to apartheid an end to occupation! We want palestinian freedom, from the river to the sea. We want right of return from the river to the sea, and we want a palestine where israelis and Palestinians have equal rights, from the river to the sea!
