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.

The officials in the state of Oregon, are the "rightful" governing body of the state of Oregon and at least ostensibly representative of the people they govern over, though. And banning rainwater collection for a random assortment of preppers, off-the-grid enthusiasts and others who certainly have access to abundant and relatively safe drinking water, is infinitely different from banning it for a people for whom it is likely a matter of life and death.
