Palestinian child Zein Yousef will not leave his mother's grave in Gaza.

This is one of the most heartbreaking things in the world.

May the Palestinians see justice and peace within our lifetimes. And may israel and the u.s. fall and be remembered for what they truly are, evil, vile, settler colonial states.

““One of my teachers at Columbia was Joseph Brodsky, who’s a Russian poet, wonderful, amazing poet, who was exiled from the Soviet Union for being a poet. And he said look, you Americans, you are so naïve. You think evil is going to come into your houses wearing big black boots. It doesn’t come like that. Look at the language. It begins in the language.”

— Marie Howe

Maccabi Tel Aviv football casuals, who are notorious for their racism even in Israel, tried to go on a rampage in Amsterdam, tearing down Palestinian flags, attacking taxi drivers, and chanting genocidal songs. Predictably, they got their shit kicked in by Ajax fans and locals in what The Jerusalem Post is now calling a 'pogrom'. Just a wild abuse of language and history, all to excuse some of the dumbest football fans imaginable.

Would Israelis really do that? Show up to a different country and start violently attacking random people and then claim to be the victim when people fight back?

🔴 Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine:

Trump’s victory will reinforce the American anti-Palestinian approach, and the Democratic Party’s loss is a natural result of its direct involvement in the zionist war of genocide.

The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine affirms that Donald Trump and the Republican Party’s victory in the U.S. elections does not, in any way, signify a real change in the hostile approach that successive American administrations have pursued against our Palestinian people and their just cause. There is no fundamental difference between the Republican and Democratic parties; both have contributed to supporting the zionist entity and participated in the war of genocide against our people, whether through policies or unlimited military and diplomatic support.

Our people have never placed their hopes on any candidate from either the Democratic or Republican parties, as we have never witnessed any positive change in U.S. administration policies, which have consistently aligned fully with the zionist entity, providing it with military funding and all forms of political, legal, and diplomatic protection.

The Democratic Party’s loss is a logical result of its complicity with the zionist entity; it rejected calls from supporters of the Palestinian people, the Palestinian community, and Arab and Muslim communities in the United States to pressure for an end to the war of genocide in Gaza, continuing its support for aggression against our people. Today, the Democrats are paying the price for ignoring these demands at the ballot box.

We in the Popular Front do not expect any positive development from a Donald Trump administration; rather, we anticipate an escalation in hostile policies against our people, fully biased in favor of the zionist entity.

We call on supporters of the Palestinian people, as well as movements, organizations, and groups that stand with our cause in the United States, to intensify pressure on the new U.S. administration to end its support for the zionist entity.

We see in the popular and student movements that stand in solidarity with Gaza, along with the emergence of small, free voices and parties, a glimmer of hope that could contribute to even a slight change in the U.S. stance on our cause.
