Fun Fact
BuzzFeed published a report claiming that Tumblr was utilized as a distribution channel for Russian agents to influence American voting habits during the 2016 presidential election in Feb 2018.
patrilineal raised secular half-Jewish culture is never feeling Jewish enough until you realize that you'd be Jewish enough to get sent to a concentration camp. And if you're Jewish enough for the antisemites, why the hell can't you be Jewish enough for yourself and for a community?!
anyways college is exhausting but I found a synagogue for the first time in October and I don't go at all regularly but I Do go and it's beautiful ✨️
Do you believe the current genocide is comparable to the shoah? why or why not
it is not comparable in scale to the shoah(the holocaust), but it is still an attempt of genocide, and it comes from the same ideologies and hatred that flues nazis and fascists.
recently I started comparing it more to the nakba, and called it "an ongoing nakba". I believe this comparison is more accurate, but I also believe using the holocaust, which is probably the most famous examples of a genocide, and people have a lot of very strong emotions tied to it, is very useful in conveying our point.
eventually, whenever I compare the israeli government and zionists to nazis, or the war on gaza to the holocaust, it comes from a place of a warning, showing people what their path is leading to.
comparing any 2 events is very nuanced, and gets harder and more dangerous the bigger one of the events is. understanding this lead me to shy from calling it "the palestinian holocaust", and I try to only compare events to the holocaust whenever a comparison is actually justified.
for example comparing the sde teiman detention camp(which no israeli media outlet covered yet) to a concentration camp is justified, because, well, its basically a concentration camp, where soldiers put palestinians, that a lot of them later get released because they never committed any crime(some ever were believed to be dead by family members, because they just disappeared one day), and torture them, and use their bodies to train medics without even giving them anaesthesia.
hopefully this clears my thought on comparing the war to the holocaust!
More and more chilling news arrives from Sde Teiman's camp.
Zionist media have revealed that 1,500 unidentified (other than by number) Gaza martyrs, including those killed in Gaza and those tortured to death there, are being held in the camp's cold rooms.
The only reason the younger generation believes the blatant disinformation and propaganda being shoved down their throats is their incredible ignorance of history.
Calling this conflict a genocide, a massacre, a holocaust, is disgustingly ignorant.
Being completely incapable of holding Palestinians accountable for voting and supporting Hamas is despicable.
Being incapable of holding Hamas, the governing entity of Gaza, accountable for the war they started and the suffering their citizens now experience thanks to their actions is despicable.
