God help them. The slaughter to come is probably beyond our imagining
Apparently the German government are ‘reconsidering their aid to the Palestinian territories’.
Death to Deutschland.
Just yesterday a settler killed a Palestinian and Israelis attacked a Palestinian town while soldiers let it happen. Fuck the Government of Israel.
Settling conquered territory is a violation of I international law and the Palestinians have no recourse to justice under the law.
Reddit world news thread on this is making my head explode. So many people that have no knowledge of history, but this one made me laugh
I really don’t think Hamass [sic] knows what it’s done
Yes, what they truly need is a random redditor to explain the politics of their actions to them.
More and more people are saying it.
Uncritical support for the brave people of Palestine 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸✊✊✊✊
The Israelis have the power to end the political and economic conditions (which they created and maintain) which lead to violence
The Palestinians do not
If you’re saddened or angered by the deaths of Israeli civilians, you can take those complaints straight to the Israeli government. Any handwringing about violence committed by the Palestinians is de facto support for the illegal occupation of Palestinian land and the apartheid state of Israel.
Is it hand-wringing to feel upset at civilians being taken hostage? Tell me why I should look an 8-year old Israeli kid in the eye and tell them they deserve what’s coming to them
“Your parents sacrificed you to their blood machine.”

Not in the least what I said, but if you need a reason, it’s a pretty funny thing to go around doing
Yeah so funny to tell a child they deserved to be hurt
Yes, imagining you going around and telling random Israeli children that is quite funny to me
I think it doesn’t help to turn the focal core of what you’re upset with to that, in this moment. Yeah, it sucks. But tell me why I should look a Palestinian 8-year old in the eye and tell them their parents deserved to be tortured and killed. A tiger is backed into a corner and stabbed repeatedly, and swipes out with its claws — if you’re unhappy with who it hits, let’s root for the tiger to liberate itself so there isn’t a need for any swiping. And let’s also be upset with the assholes who would put their children in the way of a cornered tiger as a means of controlling it
Member of the Knesset Ofer Cassif told Al Jazeera that his left-wing Hadash party had repeatedly warned that the continued Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories would lead to events like this, where innocent civilians on both sides pay the price. He called the Israeli government “fascist,” and accused it carrying out pogroms and ethnic cleansing against the Palestinian population.
Just gonna reiterate that I hate the settler colonial apartheid “state” of Israel.
Akushally that means you want to do a genocide against jews- this was literally said to me today btw.
Seen some libs already saying that the Palestinian deaths before this were just “collateral damage” and this is targeted execution of smol bean Israeli settlers.
It’s just like being back in South Africa 40 years ago, every lib talking point is a one-to-one.
Thinking about israelis watching Palestine being bombed from that hill every time I see these crocodile tears. Somehow it’s always time to clutch pearls when the settlers catch it
scratch a liberal
Happy to oblige
Netanyahu has just said live on television that they will ‘turn Gaza into a deserted island’.
I’m hearing very indirectly along grapevines that among Israelis, including liberals, the mood is becoming - and I quote verbatim - “kill them all”.

May the evil terrorist state of Israel be erased from the face of this earth and Palestine be free to thrive as a nation.
Excuse me for excusing Palestinians for being viscerally angry about what they are subjected to.
You don’t get points for trying to be unrealistically civil with apartheid occupiers who think you’re subhuman. The ones who literally cannot stand to be in your filthy presence without you being legally subject to their racial hierarchy will fuck off back to a country that coddles poor oppressed loser racists like some Rhodesian’s did.
The rest will stay and become a real part of the land, rather than a vicious, poisonous tumour growing over and consuming it.
Biden says this is “unprovoked”. The USA is a nation of lies.
usians are the most propagandized people on earth
I’m reading Torkil Lauesen’s The Principal Contradiction. It’s an excellent book and I’ll write up a review at some point, definitely recommend it. But in it, while Lauesen acknowledges that general contradictions like “workers v. capitalists” and “private profit v. socialized production” are always important, it is the contradiction between imperial core and periphery that is the principal contradiction right now. That’s to say, it is the contradiction that is most critical at this moment to the further development of capitalism.
I think he is correct. And if that’s the principal contradiction, then to me where you stand on core versus periphery is the most important stand for any leftist to take. That separates the wheat and the chaff. And there are few places in the world (with the exception maybe of eastern Ukraine) where core and periphery are in greater physical conflict than in Palestine.
So fuck Bernie, fuck AOC, fuck Cornel West, and fuck any other “leftist” (including in this thread) who expresses anything other than uncritical support for Palestine in this moment.
still deciding between PSL and afromanforpresident.com
