The mailing list. What to do with it? For the activist trying to stop the house from demolishing in west bank. I am from India. I am not connected to anything. I mean I have no resources. And I have no social standing. Would my mail help? Is it possible there can be any consequence in sending the mail? I am sorry I am asking this right now when all that is needed is to be brave. I just want to know if I will get in trouble to make sure I have appropriate safety nets.
I appreciate this so much, and I understand the limitations of having information only accesible to English readers (this absolutely needs to be a focus going forward).
However, if you have security concerns regarding sending an email to the occupying force in West Bank and do not know how to safely encrypt your emails/obscure your sending IP, please do not do it.
We have no way of knowing the extent Israel will take its suppression of pro-Palestinian voices, in and out of the region. Western (especially American) voices have a level of protection that countries closer to the conflict do not. And if you are from India I would advise extra caution.
This does not mean you are not being brave; nothing good will come of thousands of international allies ending up on some horrid IDF list. Sharing the infomation around to people who can safely send an email or make a call is enough.
