REMEMBER: the Occupier is unpopular the world over. People by and large stand with Palestine, even in the imperial core. The reason they are trying to outlaw protests for Palestine and supporting Palestine is because the ruling ideas are the ideas of the ruling class, and governments want to make their people think that support for Palestine is lower than it really is.

Israel dropped 6000 bombs in the last few days. That’s as much as the US did on Afghanistan IN A YEAR. Afghanistan is 1800x bigger than Gaza.

Just went to the local Vigil for Palestine but apparently the org canceled it just before the start, because the city didn’t want to give a permit. Still like 150 people showed up to lay flowers and burn candles. Police being the fascist fucks they are started intimidating people mourning a massacre.

Fucking fascists

To no surprise, now that there is a new major human rights catastrophy in the middle east, europeans are more worried about refugees entering their countries than the horrors inflicted on these people.

A Dutch channel has investigated the claim of Hamas calling for a ‘Day of Terror’. They contacted a Dutch newspaper, who said they got the info from a Jewish org, who said they got it from Reuters, who based it on a video of a former Hamas commander who called for ‘days of protests around the world, to show the anger on their city squares’.

So, they did NOT call for terror, but for protests.

The Belgian Union has decided to boycot the handling of cargo in the (air)ports that contains weapons deliveries to Israel

Our party leader Raoul Hedenbouw went on French Belgian tv to say Israel is a terrorist state and a genocidal apartheidsregime and the hosts were absolutely fuming lmao. ‘ISRAEL THE ONLY DEMOCRACY IN THE MIDDLE EAST YOU CANT COMPARE THEM TO HAMAS REEEEE’

Activist Ahed Tamimi has been arrested by Israel last night. She has close ties with our party.

Free Ahed and Free Palestina ✊🏻🇵🇸

Someone from the UNRWA is on BBC News right now saying that UN hospitals will cease operations tomorrow if they don’t get more fuel, and the reason for this decision is humanitarianism. They need to prioritise rations of fuel to power the water desalination plant and remaining bakeries, or else the people of Gaza won’t be able to drink water or eat bread. The UN has been able to provide bags of wheat flour through the Rafah crossing, but bakeries need water from the desalination plant to bake it into bread.

Already there is footage of injured people being rushed into hospitals in the darkness, other than from light from phone torches.

“Can you imagine what it is going to be like on the ground if you have to halt your operations and if there is a ground offensive?”

“It is going to be hell on Earth.”

IDF tells 1.1 million Palestinians to move away from Northern Gaza.

This is impossible, of course, and I suspect they only say this to pat themselves in the back when they attack and kill tens or maybe hundreds of thousands civilians.

Reports are coming out about Israel failing their ground offensive of yesterday as they got ambushed by resistance groups.

My father in law visited today and I dreaded the Palestine conversation. I must say he surprised me, being pretty Pro Palestine. But my gf surprised me even more in convincing him, suddenly quoting UN agreements on armed resistance, bringing materialism into the conversation, and talking about not dropping ideals to conform to the majority. I was like YAS QUEEEN GO and her father was even more surprised it seemed.

I just hope the rage of the general public reaches explosion point soon.

I had maybe a ten minute conversation with a Palestinian customer the other day about the operation and Israel’s response. It was rather enlightening.

He spoke of Ishmael, he spoke of the Arabs and Jews as being brothers. I mentioned 1948. We talked of most Palestinians welcoming many Jewish settlers – viewed at that time as refugees, even – with open arms, only for those accepting natives to be slaughtered soon thereafter.

We pondered together whether razing a hospital and destroying a mosque were adequate responses to children throwing stones at tanks.

He seemed very relieved to talk to anyone with a modicum of understanding. He said “you are a very smart guy” as he left. It was a strange but welcome experience. If I prayed, I would pray for his family in Palestine. I know we have some religious comrades, here, and I would implore you to include them in your prayers, if you so wish.

Jesus Zionist Twitter is fucking depressing man. 1 for 1 Nazi rhetoric, some of the most vile shit, and no consequences for them.

Feels bad man.

I know they are not a leftists news outlet to say the least, but I have to give huge props to Al-Jazeera for their covering of the Gaza situation, often countering Western media with great detail.
