Palestine

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.

Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.

Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.

We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

The people over at worldnews seem to fail any basic humanity test as they find ways to blame starving Palestinians for this somehow

On news, however, comments are surprisingly based for once. Guess it's hard to look at the killing of over a hundred people begging for aid and think they are bad.

due to israel inconsequence, mainstream media are slowly changing their vocabulary and denouncing the genocide, and fueled by lulas well timed speech.

Oh, it's not that they don't believe there's a genocide, they just like the genocide... okay

These people will send thousands of kids to the mines to make their TV an inch bigger. They know nothing but selfish consumption including their sense of self. That's all. They know it's a genocide and their narcissism has has them jumping through hoops to deny it, but deep down they like it. They want to see the people they consider inferior punished for saying they are equal.

If Israel did attack aid seekers, then their justification would be that the aid trucks were somehow terrorist vehicles in disguise or that the terrorist suspects were somehow among the crowd of aid seekers. The Pax Americana propaganda machine did made the now deproven accusation that Venezuela Socialist Maduro destroyed humanitarian aid trucks that approached border to Venezuela, and this logic means that the Pax Americana would have no excuse for the attacks against humanitarian aid trucks in Gaza as well. I also want to ask why Israel is using the concealment of terrorists within civilian crowd as an excuse to shoot at civilians aboveground when they claimed that the terrorists are located underground.

In a postwar testimony, Vertiujeni resident Lida Molceanov described the situation in the transit camp outside Vertiujeni. Surrounded by barbed wire and guarded by soldiers, the Jews were forced to pave the streets of the village. But when Molceanov’s mother gave Lida small bags of potatoes, polenta, or other bits of food to throw over the wire, the guards chased her and other children away, sometimes beating them. All the while inside the wire “were little children with their hands stretched out to those passing by pleading, ‘Give me a piece of bread! Give me a piece of bread! Please give me a piece of bread to eat!’”
