#Palestine / If It Looks Like Ethnic Cleansing, It Probably Is

Israel is carrying out war crimes and crimes against humanity. Large-scale civilian casualties, collapse of vital infrastructure and institutions, and denial of humanitarian aid in northern Gaza are creating a humanitarian crisis amounting to "starving the hundreds of thousands of people who live there. #Haaretz’s editorial calls it what it is. A grave suspicion that Israel is perpetrating ethnic cleansing by killing, starving and expelling Palestinians from northern Gaza.

[…] Ethnic cleansing is both a moral crime and a legal one. Criminal law treats mass expulsions as both a war crime and a crime against humanity. Horrifyingly, some members of Netanyahu's government want to commit these crimes.

Letter to Netflix: Reverse Deletion of 19 Palestinian Films

[…] We urge you to explain your decision and to reinstate every film by or about Palestinians that Netflix deleted last week. We are deeply concerned that Netflix’s deletion of nearly its entire library of Palestinian films will further marginalize Palestinian voices at a time when over two million Palestinians in Gaza are being subjected to genocide by the Israeli military. This erasure of Palestinian voices by Netflix follows many ugly decades of suppression of Palestinian viewpoints and narratives by Western news and entertainment media companies. The systemic suppression of Palestinian voices and censorship of content prevents U.S. and Western societies from being aware of and understanding the reality of Western governments’ support for Israel’s brutal policies of occupation, apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and now, genocide of Palestinians. 

[…] For the past year, Israel has been perpetrating a genocide in Gaza, with the Palestinians death toll being potentially as high as 9% of the total population, or 186,000 dead, according to a piece published in the British medical journal Lancet. Given this horrifying reality, Netflix should be promoting – not deleting – Palestinian films so that more people can learn about Palestinian life under Israeli military domination and occupation, especially given the International Court of Justice’s advisory opinion that the Israeli occupation is illegal, a grave human rights violation, and must end.
