Very mixed Israeli messaging: On one hand, they say all Palestinians are Hamas and deserve extermination. Other hand, claim all videos, evidence of bombing hospitals, indiscriminately killing civilians are fake.
@peterdaou
'defeating' Hamas...seems strategy is to label every Palestinian, even those in West Bank, as 'Hamas' or just 'terrorist' to justify killing or displacing every one of them. I have not seen a serious discussion about how to address the Palestinian resentment that fed Hamas

Worked with
@BarackObama
. So many Islamophobes in the State Department like Stuart Seldowitz. They pretend to be fair but actually deeply hate Muslims and all Palestinians
@Lowkey0nline
As Biden prepares to obey Netanyahu and join Israel's war against Iran, I plead to African Americans in US Armed Forces to remember Muhammad Ali's stance against Vietnam War. "No Vietcong ever called me n**ger"
@melnickjeffrey1
Not only are you one of my favourite people on Twitter but you and the many, many Jews supporting peace and justice for Palestinians show true Judaism.

@nicolephathole
Yes, Palestinian men's lives matter, even the really angry ones who say mean things about Israel. Sick of cowardice of only talking about children and babies as though Palestinian men are fair game
@mattlieb
Maybe the two sides can sit down and have an Israeli government spokesperson outline all of the correct language to use when voicing opposition to their activities in Gaza as well as anywhere in Palestine since 1948
@CondenserMick
Irish understand occupation better than Brits or Americans, what a West Bank Palestinian experiences, the daily humiliations, lack of agency and hopelessness

@walshrac
Concept of 'state' born in 1648 w Treaty of Westphalia. Not only is 'state' a construct, it is an especially recent and flimsy one, at that.

@nytimes
Before Hitler's Final Solution, he used thug violence, discrimination and other other pressure to get Jews to leave Germany voluntarily. Ethnic cleansing first step is proposing an ethnic group emigrate.
@NateB_Panic
Yes, this is true and facts matter. And I suggest giving the guy some space for his thinking to evolve. He certainly has been helping the Palestinian people and seems more critical of Israel than before
@DrKarimWafa
Continuation of western colonialism as it devalues the lives of indigenous occupants to exploit resources, including land, as is the case in Palestine
@ecomarxi
@piersmorgan
A group being slaughtered, ethnically cleansed, pushed off their land has a right to resist. Do we condemn Sioux for fighting white settlers who believed God chose them to eliminate the savages?

@Khaledhzakariah
Damn, a deep Irish secret revealed. Up until this point, we have impeccably hidden those statues the second a foreigner gets near.
The cost of losing my corporate EDI role because of my advocacy on Palestine:
Career tenure, professional networks, 60% of salary…
Being liberated from an oppressive colonial system that fakes EDI:
Priceless 👌🏼

@AShihipar
US justified Vietnamese village massacre by saying Viet Cong used civilians as human shields. Orientalist assumptions that non-white people put less value on human life lead to majority of Americans believing this bs
@AbbyMartin
This is the problem. Israelis don't value, respect Palestinian life. They genuinely do not understand how their response to 10/7 has drained any international sympathy they might have initially had
@JonnyFX1
Israel has been critical of Palestinians for teaching their children to hate Jews but look at the comfort and ease with which these young people talk about extinguishing Palestinian lives. Just imagine what their parents say and believe.
@MaitreyaBhakal
We can be honest about China's horrendous treatment of Uyghurs and also criticize US/Israel. Why is it so hard for people to be equally critical of Biden, Putin, Xi and Netanyahu?
@KimGLiebowitz
@LighthouseMax
I seriously doubt you would treat a Palestinian with same attention you would treat a Jew, thereby breaking your Hippocratic oath. How can a doctor who considers Arabs to be subhuman work in a diverse, secular hospital?
@ecomarxi
Britain, acting against will of Arab inhabitants, gave the land to a new group of people whose ancestors had lived there thousands of years earlier. If your ancestors living on property a thousand years ago gives you legal land ownership, we all need to rethink some things
@AkanKwaku
Escaped slaves raping white women, white women 'going native' with First Nation tribes, etc horror stories of 'our women' being tainted, mislead, raped by Other is such a pathetic page out of the colonial playbook

America can never be an honest broker in the Middle East. They will always back Israel and actually hate Muslims and Palestinians

Stunned by the brilliance, moral clarity. When people in the future ask how we allowed this genocide, you can say the prophets like Naomi were naming and challenging our turning genocide into ambience

murder in MSM is final straw for me. Seeing clearer depth of bias and foundational disrespect for Palestinians. Colonialism still going strong in West
@JeffreyASachs
@kthalps
Assuming this is sarcasm. He can say the most horrendous things about Palestinians and no one is going to threaten his job. If, however, he suggested an Israeli ceasefire, that's when his job would be in jeopardy.
@pmac79
I enjoy the Zionist anger aimed at us. Forget Bono, Irish are not cowed by antisemitism accusations and are strong enough to call a genocide a genocide

It's as if you were listening to a white American settler circa 1868 discussing the Native Americans their calvary just decimated
@mamoun_linda
@Sloan16Deesloan
Deep hatred and utter indifference towards humanity of Palestinians in the vast majority of Israelis and Jewish communities throughout world has been shocking and disappointing. I do look at Jewish friends differently now that I know how they feel about Palestinians
@I_amMukhtar
I guarantee
@SecBlinken
is just like this in private. Blinken is smoother than a GOP Evangelical MAGA dude but they are equally Islamophobic. Blinken, Seldowitz hate for Palestinians certainly runs deeper.
There are women in Israel who were murdered on October 7th and will never be able to tell their stories. Many dozens of women. Mothers, daughters, wives.

Irish immigrants have encountered hostility throughout the world over the last few hundred years. How deeply un-Irish, this stupid, racist, violent hostility toward immigrants coming into our nation. Despicable

Is there any universal code of ethics in Judaism? Is being 'good' only treating other Jews well? Just seems Israelis have no value for non-Jewish life
