"The #MetPolice arrested pro-#Palestine activists against its own internal guidance, documents seen by Declassified suggest. The files also show that the force is cracking down on the use of Arabic words far beyond its controversial policing of the term #intifada."

Met police failed to follow internal guidelines on policing Palestine protests

Internal guidances also show the force cracking down on Arabic words in a way that ‘smacks’ of racism, say pro-Palestinian advocates

Today in Labor History March 16, 2003: Israeli Defense Forces murdered American activist Rachel Corrie in Rafah by running over her with a bulldozer during the 2nd Intifada. She had been defending a Palestinian home that the IDF was trying to demolish as part of their collective punishment of the Palestinian people. Corie was a member of the International Solidarity Movement. She had travelled to Rafah as part of her college's (Evergreen State, in Olympia, WA) senior-year independent-study project to connect Olympia and Rafah with each other as sister cities. Under Trump, her college would likely be stripped of federal funding for allowing such a project, and Corie, herself, might have been deemed a terrorist.

Far-right #Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel #Smotrich has warned that all of the southern suburbs of #Beirut, #Lebanon, home to hundreds of thousands of the city’s poorest residents, will face devastation similar to #Gaza after the Israeli military issued forced displacement orders for the entire area.

“Very soon, Dahiyeh will resemble Khan Younis,” Smotrich said, referring to a southern Gaza city that has been heavily damaged during Israel’s genocidal war on the enclave.

The #zionists and the #ChristoFascists want #Armageddon. I told you, I’ve been telling you since the #Intifada, Gaza was a munitions and repression testing ground.

My biggest fear is that we are intentionally depleting our defensive weapons, so they can claim a nuclear strike is the only option. I do not say this lightly, but we are on the brink of destruction and if we don’t rein these rightwingers in, they will kill us all.

Ad esempio, il motivo di espropriazione alla base della dichiarazione delle “zone di fuoco”; l'uso sproporzionato della forza letale per reprimere le manifestazioni nelle prime settimane della seconda #Intifada; il fuoco dell'IDF contro i gazawi in fuga con bandiere bianche durante la guerra del 2008-2009; l'uso proibito del fosforo bianco contro i civili; e la designazione di intere famiglie come obiettivi legittimi nella guerra del 2014.

Queste pratiche non sono iniziate il #7ottobre 2023.

Tuttavia, le segnalazioni basate sulle testimonianze palestinesi acquisiscono valore solo una volta confermate da un'autorità di sicurezza o da un documento scritto israeliano. ⬇️9

⬆️ @kmpiw >> #Israel started hating #Iran in... 1991… Spot on the dot of the end of #USSR The whole #IslamicTerrorism narrative only showed up after the #ColdWar.

Iran had no dispute with Israel and was its ally when the Shah was in power. After the #IslamicRevolution in 1979, Ruhollah #Khomeini came to power and declared destruction of Israel as a core objective ➡️ https://web.archive.org/web/20220224041118/https://www.jpost.com/christianworld/article-698136

#Terrorism was very popular among #Palestinians long before 1991. 1st #Palestinian #Intifada began in 1987.

..."#AlJazeera captured the underlying posture in a 2014 email referenced in the files. The reporting does not frame this as a theoretical debate. It presents an #operational sequence: #insecurity creates #political demand; demand legitimizes #foreign#solutions”; “solutions” generate access, which is then #leveraged into broader deals.

#DropSite reported that in May 2015, Barak and his business partner, Gary Fegel, made a $15 million investment in FST #Biometrics, a #facialrecognition / #accesscontrol firm founded by Aharon Ze’evi Farkash, a former head of [#IOF] #military #intelligence.

The #technology’s lineage matters to how it was marketed. Drop Site reported that Farkash developed the concept of “#remote #identification” during the Second #Palestinian #Intifada at [IOF] checkpoints on the #Gaza border; in 2003, [IOF] deployed the “Basel” system at the #ErezCrossing, using facial scans to identify and process #Palestinians going to work....

In #Nigeria, the same reporting describes how Boko Haram’s attacks—often framed through a sectarian lens—created a ready-made narrative for pitching #biometriccontrol at a #Christian institution. Drop Site reported that a pilot was implemented at #BabcockUniversity, and by July 2015, an “in-motion #identification” system was live, with staff #training and #promotionallanguage emphasizing the #filtering of “unwanted persons.”

Al Jazeera’s account similarly notes that a #pressrelease at the time boasted the technology would “filter away all unwanted persons,” presenting #surveillance as safety while normalizing #populationcontrol logics in a #crisis setting..."

London's #MetPol #MetropolitanPolice continues its heroic crackdown on the new ‘crime’ of supporting #intifada against #Israel’s war crimes and #genocide. In England, nonviolent opposition to illegality is now "#hateCrime".

#PeterTatchell was arrested today for carrying an 'illegal' #GlobaliseTheIntafada banner. The brave cops are keeping London safe from a 74yo man promoting #nonviolence and opposing the illegal occupation of the #WestBank and #Gaza.
