Palestine

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.

Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.

Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.

We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

Well, the public shock from the atrocities committed by Hamas will wear away quickly next to the horror of the bloodbath they're inflicting on innocent Gazans day after day, so Israel will have to come up with something, anything really to try to keep its foreign allies mindlessly cheering for it.

It's desperate and it won't work for long.

It's the same thing over and over again. Rape and dead babies. It was like that with the Jakarta Method, it was like that during WW2 and after, it is like that now. Make a bold claim about the evil horde of the enemy raping women and killing babies to get public opinion in your side.

Meanwhile Israel cut off all resources to Gaza, effectively starving 2 million people and threatening to blow up every convoy that wants to help.

Babies being thrown from incubators, you say?

Alleged atrocities committed by Hamas. They have yet to present credible evidence for most of the allegations.

Meanwhile, you can easily find videos of Palestinians mourning their dead among the rubble of their open-air prison. And not just now, but for the past few years.

Trigger Warning: Actual war crime against children descriptionYesterday I started my morning watching a crowd of screaming Gaza residents pull a limp baby covered in ash and dust from a pile of rubble.

How the West can ignore these atrocities in plain sight while giving credence to ridiculous claims without a shred of proof is... I have no more words.
