JUNE 24 2024- Zvi Sukkot, Member of Knesset from the Religious Zionist party, states: "and this is just the beginning" in response to an article estimating that 200,000 Palestinians have been expelled from the Gaza strip.

Zvi Sukkot was a former representative of the far-right terror group known as "The Revolt", which was responsible for the Duma arson attack which murdered a Palestinian family of three, including 18-month-old Ali Dawabsheh. Between the founding of the group in 2013, and the Duma arson attack, the group was responsible for 11 other arson attacks and remains active to this day.

Sukkot was arrested numerous times, once even on suspicion of an arson attack on a mosque in northern West Bank, though he received no charges for it. Sukkot was not drafted into the IDF, which declared him “unsuitable” for military service.

In 2012, Sukkot was expelled from the West Bank under suspicion that he was part of a group of 12 that had planned and carried out violent attacks against Palestinians and their property.

Despite his violent criminal terrorist past, on November 1st 2023, Sukkot was appointed head of the Knesset West Bank subcommittee.

If anyone tells you that Zionism is a "#LandBack" movement, it is definitively not. Last I checked, Indigenous peoples don't relentlessly bomb and murder innocents (including children) and labeling them terrorists as they do it? They don't destroy landscapes and structures wantonly, polluting the air with warfare because!!! They have respect!!! For their sacred land!!!

Do you know who does do the above things?

Colonizers.

Zionism is a colonization project, and I'm not gonna let anyone guilt me or gaslight me into changing my mind!

"Zionism is colonialism and Jews are native to the Levant" *KISSES YOU* THIS THIS THIS !!!!!

This addition is chefs' kiss.

Theodore Herlz, father of Political Zionism: Yeah, it's colonial

Ber Borochov, father of Labour Zionism: Yeah, it's colonial

Ze'ev Jabotinsky, father of Revisionist Zionism: Yeah, it's colonial

David Ben Gurion, founding father of the Settler state: Yeah, it's colonial

Small bean fandom Zionist: Umm, lol, it's literally not colonial???

Hundreds of Jews and allies, including Writers Against the War on Gaza, sagaftramembersforceasefire and Film Workers for Palestine are present in the heart of Hollywood on the day of the Oscars to say: ALL EYES ON RAFAH!

While Hollywood celebrates, Israel prepares for the ground invasion of Rafah, where over 1.3 million Palestinians are seeking refuge. This comes as reports of extreme hunger continue to mount on the first day of Ramadan.

As filmworkers, Jews, and allies, we stand in solidarity with Palestinians. We won’t stop bearing witness. WHILE YOU’RE WATCHING, BOMBS ARE DROPPING" from Jewish Voice for Peace Los Angeles, 10/Mar/2024:

This article describes what is essentially a McCarthyist wet dream. Uncritical support for genocide and imperial expansionism has been made non-negotiable for the US Jewish community.

Please be careful of pro-Israeli bloggers in your asks telling you not to reblog fundraises and marking them as "scams". They may suggest other places to donate to but please be careful of Zionists accusing vetted fundraisers of being scams. Always check the fundraisers and see if they're vetted but please do not blindly harm Palestinians on this website.

On 7th June 2022, Afro-Palestinians of the Old City of Jerusalem rejoiced; their brother Mohammad Firawi was finally coming home.  It had been five long years since Firawi – then a twelfth grader in the middle of school exams – was accused of throwing stones at Israeli police, taken away from his home and shuttled around nine Israeli prisons. Now aged 25, he was ready to be back in the African Quarter, and they were ready to welcome him.  The community’s joy was interrupted, however, when two days later, Israeli intelligence re-arrested and expelled Firawi from Jerusalem for a week. Their reason? That he “defied Israeli orders to refrain from celebrating [his release].” Re-arrest is common practice after prisoners’ release, for reasons as impossible to justify as they are to fight. When one’s existence is made a crime, even moments of joy are closely monitored and policed.   “[The] Israeli occupation wants to prohibit any expression of happiness in the community,” Firawi tells Skin Deep, “even adopting the policy of prohibiting any symbols resembling Palestinian identity, including the Palestinian flag. They fight anything they believe negates their alleged sovereignty in Jerusalem.”

Some of y’all need a reminder of the influencers and other people with a lot of followers who came forward to explain that the Zionist entity came to them offering them money to spread some bullshit propaganda. There’s articles online about the money they spend on online propaganda. For exemple before the end of October they had already spent 4,6 millions of dollars just on online ads destined to people in France ONLY.

When some big accounts who are “just funny accounts” suddenly turn against Palestinians vetting fundraisers and the Zionists and “Israelis” pieces of shit are all over said accounts’ comments and asks to support them, you need to have some critical thinking skills instead of immediately believing what they tell you. Especially when you KNOW that “Israel” does pay people (some people are just racist pieces of shit for free let’s not forget them).

I swear some of y’all are easy targets for propaganda and it’s actually worrisome for your future but even more for the future of minorities/marginalized communities. Y’all are the kind of people who would have believed the French when they were like “Nah we didn’t make concentration camps for Algerians they are regroupement villages”.

Thought for today...

The colonial/capitalist fuckery of the past few centuries that gave rise to all the current misery in the world has always looked EXACTLY like the genocide now underway in Gaza. They just didn't have video back then.

“Well everyone else destroyed the lives of natives too! Why can’t we?”

That isn’t necessarily the great moral argument you think it is.

Crusaders ruled Palestine and most of the Levant for far longer than Zionists have ruled Palestine and just like how the Crusaders no longer control even one inch of Palestine and the rest of the Levant anymore, there will be a time where Zionists will no longer control one inch of Palestine anymore.

Its only a matter of time before their lobbying money runs dry.

Ilan Pappe is a preeminent author, historian and speaker who has written about the Nakba, the series of calculated horrors and atrocities on the basis of which the apartheid regime called israel was founded.

genocidal maniacs are persecuting anti-genocide intellectuals.

detaining and interrogating Jewish scholars is definitely not antisemitism...

madness!

More than 60 LGBTQ+ organizations are calling for broadcasters, competitors, workers, and viewers to boycott 2024’s Eurovision Song Contest following the competition’s decision to include Israel in this year’s event, which takes place in Sweden.

Support for the boycott has come from LGBTQ+ organizations around the world, including QPEN in the United States, Queers in Palestine in Palestine, Pride in Protest in Australia, and Dyke March Amsterdam in the Netherlands.

“Israeli soldiers wave rainbow flags atop the ruins of Palestinian homes destroyed by the Israeli military in Gaza — a cynical attempt to rebrand Israel’s genocide as an act of queer liberation,” the boycott’s organizers said in a press release statement.

The statement likely refers in part to a viral November 2023 post from the state of Israel's official X account, which showed an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldier standing amidst rubble it what was reportedly northern Gaza holding a Pride flag that had “In the name of love” written on it in English, Hebrew, and Arabic. The post said that the soldier is “a member of the LGBTQ+ community” who “wanted to send a message of hope to the people of Gaza living under Hamas brutality.” The post was criticized by LGBTQ+ advocates for being a prime example of “pinkwashing.”

The statement continued: “Allowing Israel to participate in Eurovision — an international pop cultural event with a massive LGBTQ+ audience — further contributes to Israel’s desperate pinkwashing attempts.”

The groups’ press release noted that although Eurovision excluded Russia the day after the country invaded Ukraine, similar measures have not been applied to Israel following the January International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling that it is “plausible” that Israel is committing acts of genocide in Gaza. While the ICJ stated that it would proceed on South Africa’s case charging Israel with violation of the 1948 Convention of the Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, the court did not order Israel to stop its military operations. Since Hamas’ October 7 attack on Israel that killed 1,200 and took 250 hostages, Israeli military actions have killed over 34,000 Palestinians in Gaza and injured more than 75,000 Palestinians.

This isn’t the first time that artists and LGBTQ+ organizations have protested the international music competition’s inclusion of Israel. Back in 2019, over 100 LGBTQ+ groups endorsed a Palestinian call for a boycott of that year’s competition, which took place in Israel, following what Amnesty International described as “deliberate attempts” to kill and maim Palestinian civilians participating in protests in Gaza.

This past January, more than 1,000 Swedish musicians, including LGBTQ+ icon Robyn, called for Eurovision to exclude Israel from the 2024 competition in an open letter to the European Broadcasting Union, who said in a statement to Billboard that the Israeli public broadcaster KAN has met all the competition rules for this year and is eligible to compete.

Later, in March, over 1,900 queer artists and organizations called on the UK’s Eurovision contestant, queer actor and musician Olly Alexander, to boycott the competition out of solidarity with Palestine.

Eurovision 2024 is set to begin on May 7.
