Israeli forces have been accused of executing handcuffed Palestinian medics before burying them in a mass grave underneath their crushed ambulances in southern Gaza’s Rafah.
Fifteen humanitarian workers went missing last week after responding to a distress call from civilians being attacked by Israeli forces.
The workers include eight paramedics from the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS), six members of the Palestinian Civil Defence search-and-rescue teams, and one UN staff member.
They were found over the weekend in a mass grave with at least around 20 multiple gunshots in each one of them, according to Mahmoud Basal, spokesperson for the Palestinian Civil Defence in Gaza.
At least one of them had their legs bound, another was decapitated and a third topless, he added.
Please don’t act like it’s just republicans.
This started under Biden, and centrist democrats gleefully shouted down progressives sounding the alarm like the good little fascism apologists that US centrists are. It is now much worse under the Trump regime, but you are 1000% right.
Please don’t act like it’s just USAmericans.
crazy that everyone came after Rashida Talib for speaking the truth that most US politicians are more loyal to israel than their constituents.
the thing is we’ll never move the republican party off their pro-israel spot except through weaponizing anti-semitism, which will do no one any good. in our two party political system our best bet is to cordon republicans away from power and to shift democrats left through quite frankly desperate maneuvers. additiunally, we must develop parallel structures of power to protect ourselves. these parrallel structures of power is what the establishment fears most, which is why they’re so quick to label us terrorists
you are conflating anti-semitism with anti-israel and anti-zionism, many Jews are against the Likud genocide, many Isreali’s are not
no i am not conflating these things. i myself am jewish and am anti-zionist. when i say the only way to get the republicans to move off their spot is to embrace anti-semitism, i say that because the right wing of america hates jews. they want to deport us to israel. they support the genocide because it gives them a place to ship us eventually. so it could be possible to get their base to hate republicans for giving weapons to jews. but that would be lending legitimacy to just shifting where the genocide is. it’s a dangerous game to play and we shouldn’t play it. a far better strategy is to, as i said, cordon republicans away from power, desperately try to shift the democrats left, and create parallel structures of power. the aim of these actions is to create an environment where our voices for liberation, be those voices Palestinian, Black, Ukrainian, Jewish, Asian, or Queer, can be heard and listened to.
Kind of unrelated but where do you get your point about republicans wanting to deport Jews to Israel? I’ve never thought about it that way. I thought (in very basic terms) both democrats and republicans supported Israel because it’s a strategic location in the middle east and it’s profitable.
it’s the christofascist goal to return the jews to israel so that all the aspects of revelations can come to pass
as someone from the south, “right wing of america hates jews”, I disagree with. Most southerners dont even know a single jewish person or have any reason to wish them ill will as long as a they are white.
The billionaire zionists wave the anti-semitism flag anytime they dont like a democrat, ADL is essentially an arm of the Liqud gov at this point, they dont care if you seig hiel, pal around with German nazi’s, just as long as you dont mention that Israel is daily committing some of the worst atrocities happening on the planet Earth right now.
They may have never met a Jew in their life, that doesn’t stop them from hating us. I’m Jewish and went to college in the south. When they found out I was Jewish (I declined one too many Bible studies I guess), I was targeted for conversion almost constantly. It was a nightmare. I was also pepper sprayed by a Neo Nazi in Southern VA. Trust me, they hate us plenty.
interesting. i’m also from the south and there are multiple far right anti-semitic groups i have to think about like Atomwaffen SS, the KKK, Patriot Front, the Proud Boys, several militias whose names i don’t know, but i know where their training facilities are
they are not anti-semitic at their base, KKK is about skin color and was born from the confederate south and that was born out of racial dominance and idiocy, but not jewish hatred. The KKK is just an mlm for racists and has largely all its been throughout its history.
Because being against genocide is a single issue voter thing, somehow? I guess being against ethnic cleansing means you’re actually Unamerican.
Democrats are not the answer. If you all don’t figure out soon that democrats are poison and we have got to create a new group. This is holding us back. Will it take a devastating loss for you to get it?
i know they’re not. the parallel structures of power is the most important part
They explicitly said to build dual power. Or do you believe you can vote your way out of this?
When I worked in a restaurant - and this was near 20 years ago, at the tail end they had us sign some condition of employment and that added a clause that we weren’t to boycott Israel as employees. A restaurant in America.
So, how many of you work for companies that have this exact thing? I quit working for others over twelve years so because of shit like this. If you work for a major corp 99% of you likely signed an anti Israel boycott in your hiring forms and you don’t even know it.
Let that simmer a bit then figure out what you need to do because these companies can’t run without employees. They need employees more than customers.
