"I’m personally a Holocaust survivor as an infant, I barely survived.
My grandparents were killed in Aushwitz and most of my extended family were killed.
I became a Zionist; this dream of the Jewish people resurrected in their historical homeland and the barbed wire of Aushwitz being replaced by the boundaries of a Jewish state with a powerful army…and then I found out that it wasn’t exactly like that, that in order to make this Jewish dream a reality we had to visit a nightmare on the local population.
There’s no way you could have ever created a Jewish state without oppressing and expelling the local population. Jewish Israeli historians have shown without a doubt that the expulsion of Palestinians was persistent, pervasive, cruel, murderous and with deliberate intent - that’s what’s called the 'Nakba' in Arabic; the 'disaster' or the 'catastrophe'.
There’s a law that you cannot deny the Holocaust, but in Israel you’re not allowed to mention the Nakba, even though it’s at the very basis of the foundation of Israel.
I visited the Occupied Territories (West Bank) during the first intifada. I cried every day for two weeks at what I saw; the brutality of the occupation, the petty harassment, the murderousness of it, the cutting down of Palestinian olive groves, the denial of water rights, the humiliations...and this went on, and now it’s much worse than it was then. It’s the longest ethnic cleansing operation in the 20th and 21st century.
I could land in Tel Aviv tomorrow and demand citizenship but my Palestinian friend in Vancouver, who was born in Jerusalem, can’t even visit! So then you have these miserable people packed into this, horrible…people call it an 'outdoor prison', which is what it is. You don’t have to support Hamas policies to stand up for Palestinian rights, that’s a complete falsity.
You think the worse thing you can say about Hamas, multiply it by a thousand times, and it still will not meet the Israeli repression and killing and dispossession of Palestinians.
And 'anybody who criticises Israel is an anti-Semite' is simply an egregious attempt to intimidate good non-Jews who are willing to stand up for what is true."

Hamas just released its proposal for a permanent ceasefire. Israel has dismissed all of their proposals as “unrealistic” — and that has been echoed across the U.S. corporate media.
Here are the actual proposals from each side.

A reminder that Israel has now been allowed to participate after changing their song and the EBU is claiming that as this is a ‘non-political’ event it cannot ban them (despite Russia’s removal effectively due to the war on Ukraine).
While I love Eurovision, I cannot support it as it allows Israel to compete despite the ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people.
A reminder that this blog supports Palestine and if you don’t agree with that, kindly fuck off.
Boycott Eurovision!
Tumblr media

I don't know how many people are aware, but on the 2nd of March, there will be a shutdown for Palestine. It's a one-day strike.
For one day, everyone is encouraged to stop posting as they usually would and instead focus on Palestine. Please use this day if not any other to share information, to protest, to donate, etc. Do what you can. Even sharing information and speaking up helps.
Of course, it is encouraged to share and post about Palestine every day you possibly can. But this day is more important than ever as it marks the day that a global call to end the genocide is occurring.
I recommend going to the website Shut It Down for Palestine (linked below) for more information.

Tell me you love trans people more than you hate TERFS.
Tell me you love people of color more than you hate racists.
Tell me you love marginalized folk more than you hate fash.
Tell me you love queer people more than you hate bigots.
Quit telling me you're an ally. Show me you're an accomplice.

“How can you be Jewish and support Palestine???”
It’s easy really. Other than having a soul, it’s because when the Nazis had our people in ghettos, when we were sent to death camps, when we asked for help and nobody listened. We know what it’s like to be begging for someone to listen. Because we know what the pain of loss, of starvation, of losing your home, of being mocked and dehumanised and othered feels like. Because we know that no life is above anothers.
