I don't even know what this blog is about. Enjoy, I hope.
Death to settler colonialism, free Palestine!
If anyone still thinks the original tweet was an exaggeration, here’s a video from 2009 of Israeli's watching bombs falling on Gaza
Transcript from their interview with Keren Levy, an Israeli real estate agent:
Keren: They Chose Hamas to rule them, it's their fault, they got it to where it is now
Reporter: Don't you think it gets worse bombing them?
Keren: No I think that is the only solution, I think they should just clear off all the city, just take it off the ground.
Keren: Yes I'm a little bit fascist.
Our own evil inclinations are far more dangerous than any external enemies.

horrific article from the bbc broke last about israel detaining healthcare workers, stripping them naked, and beating them for days on end. we already knew israel was doing this to palestinian detainees, but to be deliberately targeting medical personnel--doctors and nurses and medical assistants on the ground trying to heal wounded palestinians--and then literally torturing them are on levels of cruelty i can't even begin to compute.
a humanitarian law expert in this article calls the footage coming out of this "concerning." i call it the terms racists love to throw baselessly at arabs: barbaric and inhumane.
the article goes into doctors' accounts of this in more detail, but they describe being tied to chairs and sliced with glass. being thrown into vehicles and beaten on the way--with rifles, with fists, hoses, sticks. they were constantly humiliated. they had to stand for irregular hours. they were left in nothing but boxers. many of their families don't even know they're detained and are frantically reporting them as missing. actual doctors. israel is now torturing doctors in gaza.
adding that since israel’s raid of this respective hospital, 13 out of the 200 patients have died. because the doctors who were treating them are now being held in torture chambers.
Like it's been said before that when Israelis and Zionists cry "why do you single out Israel?!", they should in fact be reminded that Israel singles itself out. I mean, who commits violence at this magnitude and then bemoans being the victim??
ALT"A reporter asked a Palestinian child "What do you want to be when you grow up?" The child said, "We're Palestinian, we don't get to grow up." Majority of the Palestinians murdered are children under the age of ten. What crime have they committed?"
Children in Gaza represent roughly HALF of the population -that's a million human beings under the age of 18. Recent figures have also stated that one Palestinian child is killed every 15 minutes. And over the past 4 months alone -10,000 of them have been genocided and many more are still under the rubble. Many Palestinian children have also been targets of the IOF for decades -from their disproportionate targeting of women and children to the rampant imprisonment of Palestinian youths and kids in Gaza and the West Bank.
I have spoken about this on my page many times before -the IOF continues to terrorize Palestinian people and systematically robs the childhoods of Palestinian children in so many ways, and I don't know how anyone can look at what is happening and remain silent. Learning about how over a 1000 children have also had one or both their legs amputated since the start of October 7th, 2023, and over 25,000 have been orphaned -this should continue to enrage you, but I still see people think that Israel has a 'right to defend itself,' and that in itself is both a depraved and despicable statement to make.
May the IOF rot.
Palestine will be free.
