08/01/2014: 160 Palestinians have been murdered today by Israelis even after agreeing to a 72 hour CEASEFIRE.

Let me define CEASEFIRE, just in case it’s not obvious enough: 

Absolutely disgusting, but so typical. Israel doesn’t give a shit about resolution; they don’t give a shit about anything. Their motives are clear: kill everything that is not of their own kind. Genocide. And yet, the world continues to ignore those who are being oppressed.

Zionists are doing to Palestinians what the Nazis did to the Jews. How can the world sit there like hypocrites condemning Hitler and the holocaust, but justify the current day Hitler-like fascist, Benjamin Netanyahu, and his continual support of what appears to be another version of just that.

Total count of Palestinians: 1567 deaths, 8760 injuries, and 9245 partially or completely destroyed homes. 

07/31/2014: A 72 hour ceasefire agreement was approved by Israel and Hamas. However, the ceasefire period started 16 minutes ago. Israel bombed “Al-Salam” area in Gaza 8 minutes ago. Israel has already violated the ceasefire. Typical… Can’t wait to hear the excuses they use to blame and justify their actions. Absolute cowards.

UPDATE 10:38PM (PST): CEASEFIRE HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR HALF AN HOUR, TWO VIOLATIONS BY ISRAEL HAVE BEEN REPORTED.

“Israeli intelligence is also said to have known that the boys were dead shortly after they disappeared, but to have maintained public optimism about their safe return to beef up support from the Jewish diaspora.”

FULL ARTICLE HERE

From day 1, they had no evidence whatsoever that Hamas was responsible for the kidnapping and killing of Gilad Shaar, Naftali Frenkel, and Eyal Yifrach yet the Israeli prime minister remained persistent. It was just an excuse to attack and oppress the people of Palestine. Just like every other bullshit story fed through the media… To get the majority of people to sympathize and side with the aggressors rather than those being opressed.

Open your eyes. Question EVERYTHING. And don’t be a fool nor justify a corrupt group of people.

In the last weeks in Palestine

• They keep demolishing homes in Silwan, and families are having to choose between demolishing their homes themselves or pay a fine to the Israeli government.Children are sleeping in their cars as their homes are demolished against their will.
• Musa Hassouneh was shot and killed by a mob in Lydd. On the 13th, her father had to leave the city after the Israeli mayor threatened to kill him
• IOF demolished the village of Khirbet Humsa for the sixth time in less than an year, throwing their belongings, including food packages, 7 miles away
• The IOF also demolished another village in Humsa, the Jordan Valley.Here’s a video of a child asking where the army is coming from
• IOF pepper sprayed a one year old while confiscating a tractor in Um Al Jamal in the Jordan Valley. Here’s a video of the child receiving care after the attack
• Israel shut down the office of the Palestinian agricultural union in Ramallah
• Settlers from a nearby settlement raided and threw stones at homes in Huwara, in the West Bank. IOF provided cover for the settlers to walk back to their settlement. In a separate episode, they injured a child who was herding their cattle.
• IOF confiscated a health facility in Masafar Yatta, in the West Bank. Here’s a video of them brutalizing an elder protesting the confiscation
• Israel has demolished the home of a prisoner as punishment. On July 14, a group of Birzeit University students visited the family to show support and all 45 of them were arrested.The IOF had the audacity to tweet the youth they arrested were a part of a Hamas student cell in Ramallah
• Even though they announced they would retreat the colonizer settlement in Beita, the IOF is still building a military base and a religious school there. Palestinians have been resisting everyday for months and have been brutally repressed
• In June 9th, the IOF injured 411 people in Beita, including a child named Mohammad Hamayel who was shot with live bullets to his spleen and shrapnel to his waist.
• These kind of bullets with explosive shrapnel are prohibited under international law, but have been used consistently against Beita residents. On top of that, they’ve been making access of ambulances and other medical services difficult to residents.
• IOF shot a shepherd in Beita because he refused to follow orders. On another episode, 19 year old Hussam Asaira was killed trying to protect his village
• The IOF has been consistently brutalizing Palestinians in Jerusalem. Here’s a video of protesters being attacked in the Damascus Gate.
• IOF keeps brutalizing residents in Sheikh Jarrah. Here’s a video of an attack that ended up injuring Aref Hammad, an elder resident in risk of displacement
• Yesterday (July 18th) settlers and IOF soldiers raided Al Aqsa mosque. They beat women, attacked worshippers and shot live bullets inside the mosque to make way for Israeli Jewish visitors
• This thread talks about how settlers want to demolish Al Aqsa to build a biblical park, exactly like they’re doing with Silwan
• Here’s a video of the attacks and this thread shows videos of IOF brutalizing women, including attacking and stealing a woman’s prayer mat
• They bolted the doors to the mosque to stop Palestinians from praying.

Don’t look away from Palestine. Israel will keep on doing these crimes if they think they can get away with it. The best we can do is to clog zionist propaganda. Palestinians have been systemically silenced on social media and news outlets, and Muna El Kurd, one of the leaders of the Save Sheikh Jarrah movement, has already said that spreading the word is very important to fight zionism.

Be angry and amplify Palestinian voices. The above links go back to activist accounts, follow them and share their updates. Attend protests (here’s a constantly updating list of pro Palestine protests) and follow organizations to know when the next ones will be held. Some of them: USCPR,Palestinian Youth Movement,Within our Lifetime,Arab Resource and Organizing Center, and Mohammed El Kurd (he often posts calls for action from all over the world on his stories).

There is also a ResistBot petition (https://resist.bot/petitions/PIDTLG) to protest the use of US tax dollars to support Israel. Text “SIGN PIDTLG” to 50409 to text ResistBot.

Al-Aqsa won’t be stormed a second time

Al-Aqsa is a very sacred Mosque for muslims, located in Jerusalem.

Imagine having a group of extremists storm your place of worship on a holy day! And this happened before btw.

In the past months Aqsa Mosque had been stormed 2 times (link here) , stun grenades and rubber bullets were thrown, trapping people praying inside.

Reblog, share, retweet, spread the word so racisim and injustice like this can be prevented.

arabian-batboy:

What’s funny about all of these Zionists claiming that Israel is a Jewish state, is that when you look at all area Israel fully controls, then technically speaking, Jewish people are actually the (ruling) minority in Israel.

They’re 7 million Jewish Israeli-settlers and 2 millions Palestinians with Israeli citizenship in what is now occupied ‘48 Palestine (Aka Israel). Meanwhile there are almost 3 millions Palestinian and 500,0000 Jewish settlers in the West Bank (which Israel control in every sense of the word) and there’s the supposedly Hamas-controlled Gaza Stripe (which Israel literally controls how many calories per person can enter and leave) which host more than 2 millions Palestinians.

So when you do the math, in all of the area Israel is controlling (even if they don’t want to admit that WK & Gaza is 100% a part of them), Jewish people are a little less than half the population and if we allowed all the 7 million Palestinian refugees to return to their country that they were ethnically cleansed out of by Zionists, then Jewish people would be about 30% of the population (which is exactly the same percentage they were in 1947′s Palestine, before the Palestinian Exodus/The Nakba and before Israel’s “declared” independence.)

So get it through your head: Palestine and Israel aren’t two countries, they were never two countries. There’s one country, Palestine, from the river to the sea and Israel was built on top of Palestine in 1947/1948 and is now an apartheid ethno-state.
