Repost from @letstalkpalestine
Today marks 44 years since the start of the Sabra and Shatila massacre. What was once one of the bloodiest episodes of Palestinian history has now been eclipsed by the Gaza genocide. The story is always the same: the Israeli state requires the annihilation of the Palestinian people.
The Nakba continues. When it will end is up to us.
In memory of those we lost and who are still being taken from us 🤍🇵🇸

"A warring sun in Beirut thunderous April cool breeze on the ships yellow sun on a pole an eye in the gun's hole a dead from Palestine A purple sun in my friend's pocket meanderings in PARIS a bird on a dead Palestinian's toe a fly at the butchery Beirut-sulphuric-acid STOP the Quarantina is torching its inmates STOP Beirut a sun on the finger a sun in the gut a sun climbing an elephant cannibal anthropophagus sun wart on the cargoes ! ! ! ! ! a yellow sun on the face cancer on the Palestinian cruelty of the palm tree I led a ship under the sea to the living and the dead yes yes yes a black sun 45 black corpses for a single coffin black eye listening I saw a hawk eat a child’s brain in the dumps of Dekouaneh
A dead sun was a toy in Sabra I cut the sky in two
a sun rotten and eaten by worms floats over Beirut silence is sold by the pound
Bedouins covered by sarcophagi know that a tattooed moon floods you with dynamite!
the sun blown-up a child blown-up a fish blown-up the street blown-up eat and vomit the sun eat and vomit the war hear an angel explode" -Etel Adnan

anyone remember when a zionist on twitter recounted an incident that they claimed had happened on october 7th but turned out they were lying through their teeth, and even worse, the reported incident was actually from the sabra and shatila massacre? anyone keeping count of how many times zionist pigs rehash the vile, cruel things they've done to palestinians only substituting themselves in as the victims of the story? isn't it remarkable that any evidence of examples of the incomprehensible evil and violence that they swear by to justify everything they've done since october always turns out to be distinctly absent from reports of october 7th, and always present in reports of daily palestinian life for decades now?

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.

Just found out that the baby baked in an oven thing Zionists accused Hamas of doing is actually something Zionists themselves did during the Deir Yassin massacre of 1948. And the fetus cut out of the pregnant woman's womb is something that was done in the massacre of the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps by Lebanese militants in concert with Zionists. We already know that they rape women and children in detention. I think the only other huge fucking lie about Oct 7th was the beheaded babies, and I'm legitimately afraid of learning whether or not that was also just something Zionists themselves did at one point.
I mean it's not even improbable because this type of unfathomable cruelty is par for the course with genociders, that only happen when the dominant group has so much disproportionate power in the region that there is only mindless hatred and perfect impunity. (The Brits used to use native infants as crocodile bait.) The reports of IOF ripping babies from their mothers arms, shooting them dead, throwing them aside and dragging the mothers off in front of witnesses were numerous even before this. I've also heard reports of young parents being dragged off and abandoning their toddlers and infants on the roadsides (saw a video of it and I'm going to be haunted to my grave). So those premature babies being left to die of starvation at the hospital was shocking but only surprising because there were so many eyes on the situation due to the efforts of the aid workers and journalists. We thought that Western governments wouldn't pull this shit with the whole world watching. As it turned out, the only reason the last twenty-odd premature babies at Al Shifa Hospital survived was because the director of the place refused to leave them until they were safely shipped off to Egypt (unaccompanied, God knows if the parents will ever get them back. Egyptian governments refused to let the few critically injured people allowed safe passage by the US to go through without visas and passports so they died in the ambulances). Then the IOF kidnapped the director right afterwards. He's still missing.
The organ harvesting thing is also true btw. We've been talking about it ever since they made off with those dead bodies at Al Shifa Hospital. Whether they were going to use them to stage their own propaganda, harvest their organs and skin, or just did it to deprive their families of giving them a burial. Probably all three.
I'm so tired of you people refusing to pay any attention to the news streaming out of Gaza via their own citizen journalists and Al Jazeera and Quds News and families of activists and then accusing us of spreading conspiracy theories! "There's so much misinformation" just say you don't trust Palestinians to tell the truth about their own genocide with your whole chest. Say that your charges of antisemitism is about how much you fear Black people and Muslims. Say that you don't reblog calls for the Jewish community to interrogate their whiteness and their enmeshing with Zionism over the decades because you feel like "it's not your place" to amplify Black and brown people challenging whiteness. Say that you shut us down and police our language about Zionists because you're philosemites who believe Jews could never be as genocidal and bloodthirsty as every other group on the world given the same power. Say that you still don't think Zionists are "as bad as" Nazis because they haven't murdered enough people yet.
I'll take the Zionists cheering over the deaths of people we're mourning over all the hidden polite lethal racism you're hiding under your white liberal tongues. I can't take this death by a thousand cuts shit anymore. Seriously why are you scrolling past? You think we aren't talking about you?

Shira Haas volunteered to join Israel's genocidal occupational forces despite being medically exempt.
In case some of you don't why this is disgusting here's what Israel and it's proxies did:

Just letting everyone know, before the IDF wises up and deletes this latest stupid piece of misinformation, not only do they have no proof for their claim of a pregnant woman with her belly ripped open by Hamas and that CNN has already apologized for spreading this claim without proof--similar acts were carried out by the IDF themselves during the Sabra and Shatila massacre.
An American journalist, Janet Lee Stevens, wrote about them, here is the archived article with the letter back to her.
As you later wrote to me in your perfect cursive, "I saw dead women in their houses with their skirts up to their waists and their legs spread apart; dozens of young men shot after being lined up against an alley wall; children with their throats slit, a pregnant woman with her stomach chopped open, her eyes still wide open, her blackened face silently screaming in horror; countless babies and toddlers who had been stabbed or ripped apart and who had been thrown into garbage piles."
My own screencap before they delete, in case they do that again after too much backlash. The official twitter accounts tend to do that.

1982, 09, 16–18: Sabra and Shatila massacre
Following weeks of battles in Beirut, the PLO withdrew from Lebanon. On Wednesday 15 September Israel ordered the Lebanese Forces, the military wing of the Phalangist party (a right-wing Christian political party) to rid the PLO fighters in the Sabra neighbourhood and Shatila camp. The Lebanese Forces were “known for their brutality and history of atrocities against Palestinian civilians, they…

Moving towards Home
June Jordan
“Where is Abu Fadi,” she wailed. “Who will bring me my loved one?”       The New York Times, 9/20/82
I do not wish to speak about the bulldozer and the red dirt not quite covering all of the arms and legs Nor do I wish to speak about the nightlong screams that reached the observation posts where soldiers lounged about Nor do I wish to speak about the woman who shoved her baby into the stranger’s hands before she was led away Nor do I wish to speak about the father whose sons were shot through the head while they slit his own throat before the eyes of his wife Nor do I wish to speak about the army that lit continuous flares into the darkness so that others could see the backs of their victims lined against the wall Nor do I wish to speak about the piled up bodies and the stench that will not float Nor do I wish to speak about the nurse again and again raped before they murdered her on the hospital floor Nor do I wish to speak about the rattling bullets that did not halt on that keening trajectory Nor do I wish to speak about the pounding on the doors and the breaking of windows and the hauling of families into the world of the dead I do not wish to speak about the bulldozer and the red dirt not quite covering all of the arms and legs because I do not wish to speak about unspeakable events that must follow from those who dare “to purify” a people those who dare “to exterminate” a people
those who dare to describe human beings as “beasts with two legs” those who dare “to mop up” “to tighten the noose” “to step up the military pressure” “to ring around” civilian streets with tanks those who dare to close the universities to abolish the press to kill the elected representatives of the people who refuse to be purified those are the ones from whom we must redeem the words of our beginning
because I need to speak about home I need to speak about living room where the land is not bullied and beaten into a tombstone I need to speak about living room where the talk will take place in my language I need to speak about living room where my children will grow without horror I need to speak about living room where the men of my family between the ages of six and sixty-five are not marched into a roundup that leads to the grave I need to talk about living room where I can sit without grief without wailing aloud for my loved ones where I must not ask where is Abu Fadi because he will be there beside me I need to talk about living room because I need to talk about home
I was born a Black woman and now I am become a Palestinian against the relentless laughter of evil there is less and less living room and where are my loved ones?
It is time to make our way home.
June Jordan, “Moving Toward Home,” in Living Room: New Poems by June Jordan (New York: Thunder's  Mouth Press, 1993) and reprinted in Directed by Desire: The Collected Poems of June Jordan (Port Townsend, WA: Copper Canyon Press, 2007)

Audio
Welcome to the Echoes of 1948.
This is the first mixtape in a (hopefully short) series of musical documentaries. I want to let the voices of Palestine be heard. First things first, history. Right now I am working on testimonies, news broadcasts, interviews, activist speeches and I won’t stop working on these, until Palestine and her people are free. This should not just affect me, it should affect all of us, for being a bystander or not picking sides, shows just as much a lack of humanity as pressing the button yourself. Share this or send me more to work with and together we might show the world that Palestinian lives are at least as worthy as ours.
Stay tuned for more.
(Deli-Honest)
