The genocide is still ongoing and many things are still developing in Palestine, but we are removing the limitation on only posting things related to the operation Flood of Al-Aqsa to this thread, you can now freely post over Lemmygrad again.
Please don't stop talking about Palestine.
Due to popular demand, please keep all posts about the operation to this megathread, sitewide.
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.
Make sure to cover your eyes, ears, face/nose, and even gait if ur particularly paranoid! Also make sure to leave your phone off unless it’s an emergency!
Apparently putting an object in your shoe works to conceal gait against ML models but no idea how true that is
yes, I've read that too. I just didn't want to write a huge ass comment giving advice I'm sure they already know lol
Damn they can go by gait?
Dont take any personal belongings with you either. No keys, phone, wallet, id card.
Why no wallet or ID? If you get arrested you'll have to reveal your identity regardless
You dont want to lose any of it in case of violence, otherwise it's evidence that places you at the scene, and you dont want creep cops to "confiscate" anything for the same reason.
You don't want to be seen with bulging pockets (or even worse carrying any sort of backpack/fannypack, etc) because that makes you a target for cops. Even worse, they can plant things in bags or wallets.
At the bare minimum, carrying no ID when chaos erupts, means cops might let you go to avoid the work, hunt down other easier-to-arrest protestors or gives you the option to give a fake name, then make a run for it.
