Palestinian child rescued from under the rubble after being trapped for nine days.

"The International Court of Justice in The Hague will hear from 52 countries and three organisations on the legal consequences of Israel’s occupation of the West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem since 1967." from Al Jazeera English, 19/Feb/2024:
Remember, liberals will always care more about civility and politeness than about you and your kids being alive. This isn't just about the ongoing genocide in Palestine by Israel. Exact same goes for climate change, colonial oppression, pollution, etc. They'll always put order first, no matter how much they claim to value freedom. Docility and a weird, contrived sense of moral superiority are their highest values. Never try to appease them, stay radical.
If you haven't heard by now, Bethlehem has canceled its annual Christmas celebrations this year due to the tragedies in Gaza.
Bethlehem is located in the occupied West Bank and one of the churches has a baby Jesus doll in a pile of rubble, to represent what the people in Gaza are going through.
As a Christian, this makes me very sad. Christmas is arguably one of the most important days in my religion, and seeing that Bethlehem, the literal birthplace of Jesus, has canceled their Christmas celebrations makes me very sad.
While I get to spend my Christmas safe and with family, Christians in the West Bank are overshadowed by the pain and sadness of their fellow Palestinians in Gaza. Christians in Gaza likely have no more family to spend Christmas with.
If you are religious and you happen to celebrate Christmas, remember to pray for our brothers and sisters in Palestine. Pray that they can find whatever joy they can in this time and pray that the light of God can find them and bring them hope.
the "decolonize Palestine" bullshit is just making this whole thing last longer. you are calling for ethnic cleansing of a native population. you are calling for a destruction of 4000 years of Jewish existence, and most importantly, you are spewing a narrative that leads to the death of thousands. "Decolonize Palestine from Jews" is a fucking bullshit lie.
you are supporting a fucking lie. Delegitimizing the Jewish connection to the land and changing fucking history is causing active harm.
YOU ARE LITERALLY ENCOURAGING AN ETHNIC CLEANSING OF JEWS IN THE GUISE OF OBJECTING AN ETHNIC CLEANSING OF PALESTINIANS.
and for the fucking brain dead, the only fucking solution is not eradicating Palestinian presence or making millions of Jewish refugees, it is creating a place where both peoples get to live together in safety.
That piece of "Israel is just a European colonial settler imperialistic state that stole Palestine" bullshit is just that, bullshit. Palestine was never an independent state, the Palestinians never had a fucking state, get it through your fucking mind. Should they get a state? SURE! did they refuse one again and again because the idea that Jews will have their state was considered unreasonable?
YES!
Did Jordan an Egypt prevented Palestine from becoming by annexing land between 1948-1967?
ALSO YES!
is there a fucking imbalance?
YES
are the Palestinians just innocent victims of the big bad Zionists?
NO!
Palestinians are part of this story, and if they will not take accountability for their behavior in the last 106 years, nothing will be solved!
the only fucking solution is for both sides to take accountability! AND I MEAN IT!
This is not a fucking colonizer vs. colonized situation! this is two natives fighting over who gets to live in the fucking house!
i recommend this article as something to deconstruct the outrage over palestinians, and any oppressed people, being violent and how it can feel justified but ultimately helps no one. also, Mondoweiss - “news and opinion about palestine, israel and the united states” - is in need of support so please donate if you can.
Today’s daily reminder is special, since it’s the municipal election day in Israel!
-This is also an another great opportunity to remind you that Israel’s the only democracy in the Middle East.
And like any proper democracy- every Israeli citizen over 18 *has the same rights - such as the right to vote.
*17 when it comes to municipal elections.
And when I say every citizen I mean it: Jewish or Arab, Christian, Jewish ,Muslim, Druze, Bedouin, etc… We all have the same vote and chance to shape our country, and we all have our parties..
“It’s a settler colony, and none of this is about Muslims or Jews because there are Palestinian Jews, Palestinian Christians, Palestinian Muslims, Palestinian Atheists. It don’t matter about that…its a decolonization effort; that’s all it is.”
