"Settlement" housing surveys and dominates the landscape, West Bank, Palestine
THE ARCHITECTURE OF VIOLENCE (2014)
It feels like an important time to revisit this short documentary. Part of the Rebel Architecture series, the film examines, clearly and concisely, the use of design as a weapon of intimidation and subjugation within the Palestine Israel conflict.  One element it focuses on is Palestine's 'architecture of occupation': the way the built environment, even in the form of suburban 'settlement' housing (in which tracts of Israeli homes have been built in occupied territories like the West Bank), has been deliberately shaped to intimidate, surveil, segregate, and even dehumanise.
"Settlements are built on hilltops, overlooking Palestinian valleys, to dominate. They're laid out to create a suburban-scale optical device that can survey the territory. The bright red roofs of the houses are mandated by law... to allow military to understand what's friend and foe: where to bomb and where not to."
"...When you put Israeli colonies on highways, you accelerate Israeli movement through the space. In the same way, with every twist and turn of terrain, Palestinians encounter a checkpoint, a border, a fence, a valley they cannot cross..."
It's important for architects and urban designers everywhere to understand that our craft has the potential to be weaponised. It's important that, no matter whom the client, we think about how a project will impact everyone whose life it touches.  But sadly, as essential as these considerations are, they're of no immediate help to civilians from both sides who are suffering in Gaza and the rest of Palestine and Israel right now. So, it seems worth sharing:
Some ways that we can help:
1. Speak up. Send an email to your elected representative. Sign petitions. Stand up in any forum you can against human rights violations, and against both islamaphobic and antisemitic behaviour.
2. Contribute to a trusted aid organisation working in Gaza, such as Unicef or the British Red Cross. Sites like  charitynavigator and charitychecker can be used to check it's a group who'll use it well.
3. Understand the context. Short videos here and here provide a clear introduction/overview.
4. Boycott companies that are directly profiting from the illegal occupation, and from human rights violations.

Tell me again that Israel is not illegally annexing more land and ethnically cleansing the native Palestinian people. ‼️
Tell me again there was a “ceasefire” before Oct. 7 ‼️
Tell me that Israel is not a settler colonial state. ‼️
Don’t wait to tell me when 100,000 Palestinians are confirmed killed by Israel in Gaza whether through bombs, bullets, starvation or disease.

🇵🇸🇮🇱🇺🇲 The mainstream media in the United States and Europe is painting everyone into a corner. Either you are "with Hamas" or something, or you're "with Israel" whatever that means.
Here's the reality of the situation:
Palestinians live under worse apartheid conditions than anything we've seen in our lifetimes. They endure industrial scale oppression and violence at every level of their lives in an attempt to force their displacement.
You know, that whole make someone so miserable they leave of their own volition thing? Yeah, well that's what's been happening in Palestine since 1946.
War by war, skirmish by skirmish, conflict by conflict, with the backing of the entirety of the Western international apparati and the United States, Israel stole a little more land each time conflict broke out from the native Palestinians.
For decades, Israel has used a policy of inviting Jews from around to world to pour into the newly founded Israel and water down the Arab-majority demographics of the region, even as they control who can and cannot leave Palestinian territories and use their blockade of Gaza to control their diets and therefore, their reproductive habits.
Every time there was a war or displacement of Jews around the globe, Israeli authorities were there to invite more Jews, especially European and Soviet Jews, into Israel.
And so each time the apartheid conditions of Palestinians became unbearable, the Arab community in the region would lash out however they could, using politics and violence alike, as any community living under apartheid conditions would do, and each time, with the backing of the United States, Israel acquired more and more territory, displacing more and more Palestinians as they crowded into the few remaining Palestinian enclaves; what is today's West Bank, East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip.
And so you can see by analyzing this history, how Palestinians, time and time again, are painted into a corner from which there is no escape.
Words go unheard by the world, prayers go unanswered, protests are brutally stifled using Israeli snipers, machine gun nests, and indiscriminate shelling, and slowly but surely, options for the Palestinian community shrink until nothing is left but violence. This cycle of violence is more than well documented for anyone willing to simply look.
Journalists and medics are purposely targeted during Protests, Palestinians are maimed, murdered, raped and imprisoned for resisting non-violently. This is also well documented for anyone willing to just look.
So no, no American has the right to judge Palestinians for how they choose to resist this Fascism, genocide, Colonialism and occupation.
I've NEVER heard an American denounce the settlers and occupation forces' beatings, raping, imprisoning and murdering of Palestinians.
I'm not "on Hamas' side" or whatever you people are saying, I'm telling you and everyone else it's not our place to tell people how they can and cannot resist genocide and ethnic cleansing or to pass some kind moral judgement as though we're somehow superior to Palestinians.
It's that same kind of supremacist thinking that leads Israelis to commit such horrific and barbaric violence against Palestinians in the first place.
I don't 'celebrate' the deaths of Israelis, I mourn the loss of Palestinians every day.
Solidarity to the death with Palestine!

THIS is ethnic cleansing. During Hanukkah, a coalition of settler groups funded by the state of Israel held a conference to discuss a “practical” plan to build the first settlements in Gaza, all while the Israeli government is actively waging a genocidal war on Palestinians.
@hareyzahav an Israeli real estate firm with a history of building illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank, unveiled a plan for the homes in Gaza.
Their advertisements say: “A house on the beach is not a dream! We have begun clearing rubble and fending off squatters.” Another ad calls Gaza the “Land of Israel. Fight. Liberate. Settle.” and includes a hotline to register for a place in the future settlement.
Just as the Israeli government was crystal clear in its plans to commit genocide, the Israeli government’s post-genocide colonization strategy is explicit and blatant—and a war crime.
We can stop this. Don’t look away. All eyes on Palestine.

Israel Deemed Innocent Civilian Deaths NECESSARY
Tumblr media
Debunking Israel's "Human Shields" lie used as a blanket excuse to justify killing ANY Palestinian civilians: e.g. IDF officials admit they 100% knew children & women would die in their strikes. They went for it anyways & called them "collateral damage" & "human shields"

Don’t Zionists ever get tired of their own bullshit? This one admits the people who want to see Palestine be free of occupation and apartheid are good people then repeats the ludicrous lie that they all want her dead. it’s honestly hilarious how insane they are 😆
Tumblr media
“I can’t trust anyone anymore” Yeah, you can’t trust because at any moment some great person you’ve been friends with all your life could turn out to be one of those brave principled people who stands up for the most oppressed people on earth who are going through a LITERAL GENOCIDE. You poor thing, @jewishspite! How will you ever get through this?
