While reading this interview with a West Bank settler, it's important to remember her views do not represent those of all Israelis just like Israel does not represent all Jews. There has been sizeable protest in Tel Aviv against the genocide (quickly squashed under Netanyahu’s police force just like all other pro-palestinian sentiment) but it’s worth reading to get insight into the minds of average people who cheer on Palestinian deaths, and draw up a chair to watch hellfire rain down on innocents. This is the impact of years of settler-colonial propaganda - a complete dehumanisation of a scapegoat population.
It also has to be said that ALL colonialist countries are complicit in encouraging this kind of extremism, by facilitating and stoking the fires of islamophobia post-9/11. Israel is not an outlier - this kind of sentiment is festering EVERYWHERE and attempting to detach yourself and your country's identity from it is like burying your head in the sand.
If you stand on the side of Palestinians in this crisis, you have to be prepared to recognise the signs of islamophobia and fascism everywhere, and stand against them.

HL Incorrect Quote #53
*after Potions class*
*group surrounding a broken jar of dragon scales*
Prof. Sharp: So... who broke it? I'm not mad. I just want to know.
MC: I did. I broke-
Sharp: No, no you didn't. Mr. Gaunt?
Ominis: Don't look at me. Look at Garreth.
Garreth: What? I didn't break it.
Ominis: Huh. That's weird. How'd you even know it was broken?
Garreth: Because it's sitting right in front of us and it's broken.
Ominis, squinting: Suspicious.
Garreth: No, it's not!
Sebastian: If it matters, probably not, but Poppy was the last one to use it.
Poppy: Liar! I don't even brew that crap!
Sebastian: Oh, really? Then what were you doing by the inventory earlier?
Poppy: I use the weighing scales to measure out beast feed; everyone knows that, Sebastian!
MC: Ok, ok! Let’s not fight! I broke it, let me pay for it, Professor!
Sharp: No! Who broke it?
Garreth, leaning in: ...Professor... Natty's been awfully quiet.
Natty: REALLY?
Garreth: Yeah! Really.
Natty: For Merlin's sake!
*group starts arguing*
Sharp, to the faculty: I broke it. My leg bumped into the shelf, and it fell. I predict ten minutes from now they'll be at each other's throats with war paint on their faces and a pig head on a stick.
*looks back at the group that continues to argue*
Sharp: Good. It was getting a little chummy around here.

no 'cause tony and ziva both going to somalia on separate suicide missions but finding each other instead. surviving instead. reuniting and continuing to live afterwards. like what the hell. the look on ziva's face when tony said he thought she was dead and it completely recontextualized "couldn't live without you, i guess." after everything, everything, they still have each other's backs. he was ready to die avenging her and she was ready to die trying to save him and actually i'm screaming crying throwing up what the hell is wrong with this show why would it do this to me.

*silence*
Eruhaben: I'm not mad. I just want to know.
Choi Han: I. Did. It. I. Broke-
Eruhaben: No, no you didn't. Raon?
Raon: Don't look at me, look at Hong!
Hong: What? I didn't break it!
Raon: Huh, that's weird. Then how did you even know it was broken?
Hong: Because it's right in front of us, and it's broken!
Raon: *glares* Suspicious.
Hong: No, it's not!
On: If it matters – probably not – but Lock was the last one to use it.
Lock: What?! I can't even use magic!
On: Oh, really? Don't you regularly train with the Dragon Lord, the greatest master of magic?
Lock: I'm only learning the shield arts from her; everyone knows that, On!
Choi Han: Kids, don't fight over this! I. Broke. It. So-
Eruhaben: No! WHO broke it?!
Hong: *glances at Rosalyn* Eruhaben… Rosalyn's been awfully quiet.

Rosalyn: Oh, my God-!
*everyone starts arguing*
Eruhaben: *smirks at Cale and whispers* I broke it.
Cale: …What?
Eruhaben: *shrugs* It zapped my hand, so I punched it. I predict ten minutes from now they'll be at each other's throats and going full out with their weapons and abilities on the training field.
Cale: *stares at Eruhaben in disbelief* Why?
Eruhaben: *sips tea with satisfaction* It was getting boring around here.
Cale: … *extremely scared for his life*
