Who removed this? Death to the IDF is a call for defense, not a call for violence. Death to the IDF. The IDF is an organization. Death to that doesn’t have to mean violence. If the Israeli government would disband the IDF that would be a death of the IDF.
But let me be clear, soldiers committing genocide should be stopped by all means possible. Death to the IDF and the soldiers enacting genocide.
Do you have the same concern for the thousands of children being held indefinitely in prisons by Israel? Why don’t those hostages deserve release?
Fuck off Nazi, anyone with sense knows the difference between Zionism and Jews.
Abbas is not necessarily the best source to quote, that quote in particular was something like 30 years ago and he had clarified his stance later emphasizing the horrific crime against humanity that the holocaust was, but he sucks anyway and has very low approval in Palestine, with a reported 90% of Palestinians wanting him to resign. But it is unfortunate that antisemitism like you describe is very common in the Arab world.
This is pure conjecture but it could be possible Palestinians would have a more accurate view of the situation because of their proxmity and history and therefore have less explicit antisemitism versus anti-Zionism, recognizing the distinction.
They don’t see ‘jews’ attacking them and hate jews, they know what the IDF and the US is, of course there are likely antisemitic people there as there may be anywhere, but most people know the difference between Jews as a group and the people they see shooting and bombing them wearing the flag of Israel or the US.
Why do you think they wouldn’t make a distinction? Islamic texts reference Jewish and Christian prophets, they don’t just naturally automatically hate each other.
They lived together fine for many years. People are concerned about Palestinians because there is accepted scholarly consensus that they are being killed en masse in a genocide waged by Israel and supported materially by the US and it’s allies. Likely at least 100,000 Palestinian people have been killed since October 2023.This isn’t a competition for who is the most worthy victim historically between Muslims and Jews, innocent families, entire neighborhoods are being obliterated by Israel right now. Thousands of children are at risk of starving because of the total blockade by Israel. Many Jewish people disagree with what is happening and would prefer to share the space in peace.
Supporting Palestine and recognizing this as genocide has nothing to do with recognizing the horrors of the holocaust and feeling sympathy for the Jewish victims of antisemitism, they are not contradictory positions.
‘Pro-Israel figures’ as the headline says are the terrorists they are probably referring to, the ones threatening to kill people on a humanitarian aid mission.
Every election in my life has been 'the most important in history ’ or whatever. As a brown person you should have more awareness that no vote, no established politician will save us from the right, that Democrats are hardly even opposition anymore and are simply a donation gathering organization putting on the airs of a relevent party.
There is no political motivation for anyone in power to slow the rise of fascism, or to stop a genocide going on in Palestine or one being prepared in the US. There is no point in acting like Kamala or anyone in the US political class has any chance of preventing the numerous crises building, or even a desire to. The sooner more on the left can recognize this, the sooner we can start working on actual solutions.
Which are you referring to? There are still thousands of Palestinian people in Israeli detention, many indefinitely with no charges, including hundreds of children.
Sbarro was founded by two Italian immigrants in Brooklyn, they were probably real NYC pizza at one point
If someone is shot and paralyzed, but dies years later from complications it is ruled as a murder in connection with the shooting. If someone is horrifically abused and commits suicide, should the suspects of the abuse have some culpability in the death?
Whether suicide or murder, her blood is on Epstein and company’s hands.
I have had a day where I was sure I wanted to die and years where I didn’t. It’s possible for it to change in an instant. I don’t know any details of her situation, but just pointing out that that can change from moment to moment.
And the Democrat leader Schumer says his job is to keep the left pro-Israel, there is no redeemable politician in power here. If we had real justice they would all be hanged for supporting genocide.
People are independent of their governments, I don’t think someone is less human because of the country they were born in.
Tell me one single thing democrats have done to slow down the current administration. Biden even opened up new immigration camps as he was leaving office, they had all but rolled out the red carpet for Trump.
Do you find it of value to spout plain bigotry? Given the history of US military action should I say it is one of the core traits of Americans to be blood-thirsty ghouls?
What do you mean about numbers? The state and it’s guards are always massively outnumbered by the people, it’s just a question of organization.
Democrats have enabled this, did you not see the crackdowns and illegal abductions at universities before Trump was elected? These parties are two sides of the same pro-capital fascist coin. MAGA republicans are more openly fascist, but do you see any serious resistance from elected Democrats?
Maybe we need a app that will notify people that something is happening so they can flood the area even more with people who will stand in front of the vehicle.
That used to be Twitter if you knew the pages to follow. It was effective for calling for action at specific places/times during protests, it was no surprise Musk bought it and ruined it. With all major tech companies aligned with fascism it would be tough for a new app like this to become popular.
In 1944 would it be controversial for someone to chant “Death, death to the SS!”? If people can’t see the genocide and see that military force against the genociding organization is necessary to stop it by now then they won’t be ‘brought to our side’ by using a kinder chant. It’s a type of civil disobedience, it brings more attention to the BBC and UK’s complicity in the genocide.
