The Israeli government: *Is constantly making it clear that they want to bomb the shit out of Gaza*
US Politicians: Oh c’mon guys, you’re being overdramatic. The Israeli government would never do that.

They have since left four premature babies to decompose on their beds. They have since kidnapped, stripped, tortured civilians and tried to frame them as Hamas fighters for their propaganda. They have since shot people at refugee camps execution style. They have since targeted academics and poets and directors. They have since killed 86 journalists. Still no ceasefire.
psa: i know that many of us did NOT doubt this for a second, neither did i. this is targeted at the people who educated themselves for the first time about this genocide and discovered the absolute horrific things that Israel is capable of doing to Palestinians, with the unwavering support of its allies.

You can’t make this shit up. This is actually insane and disgusting. People can lose their job for pointing this out while a fcking Israeli politician can just literally say this. What the fuck do you mean do to Gaza what was done by the Nazis?
Israeli soldiers went inside a school in Northern Gaza and abducted the men and then went into a room where women were hiding and opened fire. This is a massacre

It was the Shadia Abu Ghazala School
All these holier than thou lib zionists preaching that the "free Palestine movement" has an "antisemitism problem" have never been to a Palestine protest have never talked to a Palestinian organizer and have never had a Palestinian friend. They just see tweets online and think thats our goals and those are our representatives lmao. We've known our whole life people assume we're antisemitic and we internalized that and then realized everything we do or say will be framed as antisemitic. A professor at my school reposted a tweet of a Palestinian protest and said "I can't imagine being a jew celebrating Hanukkah and hearing these people" how would that disrupt their Hanukkah. Our existence disrupts jewish existence? Do you fucking hear yourselves
I feel like this post is gonna get screenshotted by a lib zionist with a watery filter so to be clear reblogging this with a video of an "antisemitic chant" by an individual whether antisemitic or not, is not the same thing as going to a Palestine protest, meeting a Palestinian organizer, or having a Palestinian friend. Stop fighting the imaginary Palestinian movement that is in your head and actually meet with us like we're human beings who are organizing so we don't have to see one more dollar go to slaughtering our people
And this is also to the people who go "oh they're so uneducated they treat palestine like a fandom they don't know the history" we've been holding teachins and readins all across the country. We're protesting and taking the time to give reading lists and teach people. If you haven't heard about it you're not following the right people
Israel killed innocent people inside Shadia Abu Ghazala School in Northern Gaza, including women, children, and BABIES. This happened today, December 13th
When the death toll for Gaza goes up from disease, Israel will claim deniability, that those deaths were not deliberate and calculated. You see it with how settlers will talk about the genocide of Natives, that most of us "just died from disease then colonizers 'accidentally spread'". It is NEVER an accident. Famines and Diseases and always used as tool for genocide by colonizers
the west: and the evil mozlem jeehadis in yeahmen seized a poor israeli billionaire’s ship, likely for their nefarious terror plots that tHrEaTen oUr fReEdOms-
the yemeni:
jokes aside, it’s estimated that the financial losses are already immense, as israel’s exports are reliant on sea shipping. the cost of rerouting their ships around yemeni territorial waters is HUGE
for those rusty with geography, i made a little map. the red circle is the bab al-mandab strait, which yemen has almost complete control over. the yellow arrows are the trade route that israel previously took. the blue is how they’re having to route their ships now:
yemen is singlehandedly forcing an economy dependent on trade to reroute their ships all the way around the entire continent of africa
people are asking why other countries don’t do the same and the short answer is because there is a very violent history of retribution from the west
in 1956 a joint coalition of israel (surprise), the uk (surprise again), and france (are you still surprised? you shouldn’t be) invaded gaza and egypt to regain control of the suez canal and straits of tiran for western powers
the aggressors failed, but they were willing to invade and start a war - which is why what yemen is doing now is that much more commendable, because they know the history and they know what’s at stake and are still choosing not to stand idle while israel commits genocide
Countries over the world and people over the world are calling for this and participating.
We NEED all hands on deck. If you have to be somewhere, make sure not to but anything, do not go to school or work or ANYWHERE unless absolutely necessary.
This is a one day thing. One day GLOBAL strike. The whole world is sharing this.
Do your part and share this as well!!
❗️SPREAD THIS EVERYWHERE ❗️
as far as i can tell in response to the proliferation of pro-palestinian content online and the clear on the ground support for palestinians worldwide there has been a BIG push by institutions and news networks to both stigmatize support for palestine and distract from the on-going genocide in gaza.
we're going to be seeing a lot of backlash in the coming few weeks now that israel is trying to push through its genocidal plan. manufacturing consent for genocide is a dirty game. stay focused. there are children dying in their thousands and they can't hide or justify it. in a few months all of this will go away and israel and the US will start their crying tour of "shoot and cry"
there is no question of how history will look back on this moment. we already know that and so do they. they also don't care. remorse is free and they know it. public mourning and statements of regrets are likely pre-written. if the public outcry wasn't significant, they wouldn't be going to these lengths to suppress it.
stay focused, keep the pressure up. there are children being killed, hospitals being bombed, schools being destroyed, land being razed, homes being looted, parents being kidnapped, civilians being terrorized every single moment this continues. none of this is normal. none of this is right. a few weeks ago a single hospital being bombed was a worldwide shock. now every hospital is being openly and brazenly targeted. this is what they're counting on and this is what we refuse to accept.
I do not understand people who see genocide and say "why won't The World do anything" and "someone please make this stop" but refuse to support armed resistance from Palestinians themselves. I don't understand how you can see the images of IOF gestapo terrorizing, brutalizing, kidnapping, and mass murdering Palestinian children and adults and not thank God that there's an armed Palestinian resistance fighting tooth and nail to destroy the genocidal regime by any means necessary. you want someone to stop this? then support the people who are fighting
The way they're acting like "ceasefire" means "go blow yourselves up" is just. A ceasefire is nothing. It's less than the bare minimum. It's not "rebuild what you destroyed." It's not "pay the victims remaining of the families you killed." It's not "rehabilitate Gaza." It's not any of the demands that could be made in this situation. It's just... Stop. Stop killing them. And even that is treated like it's so fucking extreme and if you call for it you must want Jews to die. Politicians with an agenda can really demonize anything.
Not USA being the only one to vote against a ceasefire…. And UK being the only one to abstaine…
Probably the two most evil and disgusting countries out there (aside from Israel of course)
Like op said, it’s the bare fucking minimum. A few days ago Israel killed 700 people in just 24 hours. In just ONE day.

Twenty years later after many Arab cities had fallen, the thoughts I was sharing in Hebrew with a friend at a restaurant did not please a man sitting there, and he set to defending Israeli oppression with what he considered an irrefutable argument. He said you don't know these Arabs, and if you knew them, you wouldn't speak about justice in this manner. I asked him to tell me more. He knit his brow and said, "Have you heard of a village called al-Birwa?" "No," I answered. "Where is it?" "You won't find it on this earth," he said. "We blew it up, raked the stones out of its earth, then plowed it until it disappeared under the trees." "To cover up the crime?" I asked. He corrected me, protesting, "No, it was to cover up its crime, that damned place." "And what was its crime?" I asked. "It resisted us," he answered. "They fought back, costing us many casualties, and we had to occupy it twice. The first time we were eating dinner, and the tea was hot. The villagers surprised us and took it back. How could we accept such an insult? You don't know the Arabs, and now I'm telling you." I told him I was Arab, and that it was my village. He apologized politely but awkwardly, talked of peace, then invited me to his shop, where he was auctioning off furnishings and household utensils plundered from the city of Quneitra.
