    Read this thread. From joy and resistance to terror and still resistance! May be free, and may these cruel hands receive their punishment! Palestinians can’t have a break, not even on this blessed Friday.

    Here it is, the "Jewish supremacy" narrative so readily adopted and promoted by liberal Zionists and others, coming at you from Israel's potential new PM. Don't let them fool you, this is just plain ol' white supremacy using and abusing Judaism as an excuse to steal and kill.

    I was invited to speak about Palestine to a German audience. The talk was cancelled because the framing of Israel as a settler-colonialist project may be interpreted as antisemitism according to German law. You see the problem? Y'all in the west are NOT FREE.

    According to eyewitnesses, Israeli occupation forces ran over a boy in Ras Al-Amud, “for having a Palestinian flag on his bike.” They didn’t want anyone filming. This is everyday in Jerusalem: colonizers targeting and terrorizing Palestinians, *especially* children.

    The recent hyper-visibility of the Israeli occupation’s crimes & partnership with its genocidal settlers is making the authorities panic. They’re doing all they can to silence us: from digital censorship to physically targeting those documenting & expose Israeli colonial violence

    The Israeli occupation just forced all those documenting the police brutality at Sheikh Jarrah to leave the scene. They threatened that “non-journalist filming with a cellphone” will be suppressed—2 days after they brutalized & jailed 2 Palestinian journalists.
