"Towers of Ivory & Steel" Jewish Scholar Says Israeli Universities Deny Palestinian Freedom"!

And note "Israeli scholar Maya Wind’s new book - 'Towers of Ivory and Steel: How Israeli Universities Deny Palestinian Freedom'.. documents how Israeli universities directly constrain Palestinian rights by supporting & even developing the policies of occupation and apartheid used by the Israeli state.“In the West, Israeli universities are considered bastions of pluralism and democracy. But in fact … they are a central pillar of the Israeli regime's of oppression against Palestinians,” says Wind. She also discusses Israel’s “scholasticide", in Gaza - the "intentional destruction of Palestinian education” & the movement of conscientious objectors to Israel’s mandatory conscription, in which she took part when she refused to enlist in the army at age 18 and served 40 days in a military prison."

starts with - "With thousands of faculty and students likely killed and campuses destroyed, Palestinian universities in the Strip are barely surviving Israel’s scholasticide."

The people who started OWS were reffered to as "the founders" they were invited on many media outlets when polls showed OWS had 80% support of the people but they refused to call out the GOP for thier enrichment of the rich because they wanted to stay out of politics as a result of that decission the entire OWS movement came to nothing. now progressives are slowly taking over the Democrartic Party something we could have done a decade ago if the "founders" hadn't squader everything that OWS did to raise awareness,

Now consider "Everybody Wants Gaza's Gas"! by Rachel Donald:

"The $500 billion windfall shoring up EU supplies" and please also try to see ...

Note that "Prof.Omer Bartov is one of the world's pre-eminent experts on genocide. This is a devastating interview; one which explains why now he's changed his view & believes Israel is committing Genocide"!

As ... "Naomi and Mehdi discuss how, as with the Oslo peace process, the never-ending Gaza ceasefire negotiations simply allow Israel to prolong the war and ‘put facts on the ground.'"

Thread: Israel vs. Palestine

So "Israel relies on Western Islamophobic pretenses to further its foreign policy agenda in delegitimizing Palestinian grievance, leaving the occupied state’s colonization unquestioned. It dismisses responsibility for historical crimes committed against Palestinians such as ethnic cleansing, collective punishment and apartheid because the victims of the crimes are either part of a homogenous group of radicalism or - are subhuman. If the Palestinians were a Euro-Christian people then we can rest assured the West wouldn’t have stood idly by, as Israel dropped chemical weapons on Gaza in 2008 and then - also bulldozed over 28,000 Palestinian homes since 1967.

And - "Zionism needs the Western sympathizing countries to remain Islamophobic. Despite Netanyahu’s plea that ... “it’s not Islam. Its militant Islam” - his country continues to benefit from the proliferation of the doctrine. As long as Israel floats in its “sea of red-Arab Muslim terror”, it'll remain in perpetual victimhood while simultaneously being a colonial-occupying power in Palestine." FROM:

please note how the ... "Israeli soldiers describe the near-total absence of firing regulations in the Gaza war, with troops shooting as they please, setting homes ablaze, and leaving corpses on the streets - all with their commanders’ permission."

As "Far-right protesters, soldiers, and MKs rallied for guards suspected of raping a Palestinian detainee. Once fringe, they’re now the public face of the state."

Thread: Israel=A brutal terrorist state
[-] 1 points by beautifulworld (23809) 4 days ago

The cruelty is unbearable and I am guilty of not reading through certain articles because they just bring too much pain. BUT, it is our duty. It is the least we can do.

So, yesterday, another heartless, cruel attack on a school in Gaza.

How is Israel getting away with this? How is the world allowing this to happen in the 21st century? This barbarism is bringing us backward. We are ALL losing our humanity as this crisis continues. It is on ALL of US to end it.

"EIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip -- Israeli airstrikes across Gaza overnight and Wednesday hit a U.N. school sheltering displaced Palestinian families as well as two homes, killing at least 34 people, including 19 women and children, hospital officials said. A U.N. official said six staffers were among the dead."

Depraved.

"Gaza's schools are packed with tens of thousands of Palestinians driven from their homes by Israeli offensives and evacuation orders."

So, in other words, these people have no where else to go.

And, the people helping them do so at enormous risk.

"UNRWA said six staffers aiding the displaced, including the manager of the shelter, were killed. “Humanitarian staff, premises & operations have been blatantly & unabatedly disregarded since the beginning of the war,” the agency's director, Philippe Lazzarini, wrote on X.

The truth is, Israel doesn't want anyone to help the Palestinians, nor do they want them to continue existing, hence, the ongoing genocide.

"The nutrition situation in Gaza is one of the most severe that we have ever seen…it is important to remember that the nearly half of Gaza’s population suffering from this devastation are children,” he said." From: https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/09/1154001

11 months on, note - "Israel Knew Hamas’s Attack Plan Over a Year Ago: The New York Times"!

and note: "Ronen Bergman is a staff writer for The New York Times Magazine, based in Tel Aviv. His latest book is “Rise and Kill First: The Secret History of Israel’s Targeted Assassinations” published by Random House, via the New York Times".

NB "The Grayzone has obtained slides from a confidential Israel lobby presentation based on data from Republican pollster, Frank Luntz. They contain talking points for politicians and public figures seeking to justify Israel’s assault on the Gaza Strip."

The information above incl. the final video, has to be seen in the round & in the context of ISR's political divisions but seen in totality they form a picture of who knew what n' when! These videos are important!

It was a Royalist faction, who had infiltrated the constitutional convention, that demanded a Senate and an Electoral College to help defend the American aristocrats and their property from we the people.... ... Don't think for a second I support a constitutional convention at this time. It would only make the oppression by the top 10% of income and net worth a helluvalot worse for We the People of the 90%!

Oh? It wasn't stupidity when the founders created the Senate and the Electoral College. It was Royalist perfidy.

Look Hillary was alfuf I was clear about that at the time see my post reffering to Shawshank, but I understood Trump was worst and i made an effort to win while you pouted in the connor.

You on the other hand was never there helping Bernie when nhe was fighting for the nomination you didn't wiegh in till he had lost because your real mission is to hrut the Dems and help the GOP you love Trump.

I did the same thing that Bernie did i did all i could to get a liberial nominated and once the battle was over i did all i could to get the winner, Hillary, elected if you could say the same we mifght have won and beat Trump you stayed true to Stien and allowed Trump to win, that's what actually happened you can try to rewrite it all you want.

"Israel has launched its biggest operation in the occupied West Bank in close to two decades, with troops raiding multiple towns and villages backed by armored vehicles, bulldozers, fighter jets and drones. Politician Mustafa Barghouti says ISR is "trying to repeat the Nakba"!! IMPORTANT info:

I read your link a month ago but couldn't bring myself to either quote, or repeat it then. I can now tho' ...

so: "The constant trauma took its toll on Yasmeen Khuwaiter - who found out about her pregnancy two weeks before the war, and gave birth to triplets in April, two months before her due date.

"She conceived through IVF treatment after 9 years of trying to have a child but instead of joy she spent the pregnancy in a constant state of anxiety about losing the children. She could not find the medication she needed and was forced to rely on unhealthy processed food which she believes weakened her body and led to several health problems.

"When she was in need of treatment in November, she arrived at a hospital to find it closing because of a shortage of medical supplies and electricity. Ms Khuwaiter & her family, fled from Gaza City to central Gaza, with her husband having to push her in a wheelchair. Weeks later she had to flee again, to Rafah in the south of the strip.

"Doctors referred her for treatment in Egypt, but after a month of waiting to be allowed out of Gaza, the area Khuwaiter was staying in was bombed, forcing the family to flee again to central Gaza, where she gave birth in hospital.

“God blessed me with triplets ... a boy and two girls, but they were in poor health due to their premature birth,” she says."


SO, ARE YASMEEN AND HER BABIES STILL ALIVE?! WHO KNOWS?!! AND WHO EVEN CARES?!!!

The Repugnicants have ever served the billionaires, banksters and about ten percent of the population who have the greatest incomes and net worth taken from the rest of us who do the actual work that produces the material goods and services that support human existence. The ten percent can elect none of the cons they need to run the government for their benefit. Since Brown v. Board in 1954 the Corporatists of the "right" have appealed more and more to the dregs of racists, misogynists, xenophobes, homophobes, neo Nazis and Fascists in order to win elections. We need to shine harsh lights on the degenerate activities of right wing in America. They are taking us down fast. We can't allow the MAGAts to destroy our country.

RIP David Rolfe Graeber (12th Feb 1961 – 2nd Sept 2020)

Consider "David’s autobiography; David wrote about himself"

Last para of which .. "Oh, and since this is a matter of some historical contention: no, I didn’t personally come up with the slogan “We are the 99%.” I did first suggest that we call ourselves the 99%. Then two Spanish indignados and a Greek anarchist added the “we” - and later a food-not-bombs veteran put the “are” between them. And they say you can’t create something worthwhile by committee! I’d include their names but considering the way Police Intelligence has been coming after early OWS organisers maybe it would be better not to."

multum in parvo!

You don't understand how democracy works. That is your problem, not mine.

Had Hilary and company done a single solitary thing to collaborate with the left, she might have beaten Trump. Therefore, the blame lies with Clinton and the Democrats for why Trump was elected. QUIT pointing the finger at the left. You will never get anywhere by trying to insult and alienate millions of people.
