This seems like positive news: recognition of a Palestinian state. Canada, Malta, France and the UK recently. Until you read that many are still sending bombs to Israel. And demand the Palestinian state be demilitarized. Just what do you think is going to happen here?? Justice? Peace? Equality? And end to genocide? Nope. Annihilation. (Plus, you can't have peace without justice and justice would be demilitarizing Israel as well...) This is your brain on Israeli propaganda - "Israel has the right to defend itself against the people it occupies." Lol. No. Get out of here with that genocidal nonsense.

Cheer the Warsaw ghetto uprising. Cheer Ukraine hitting Russia. Condemn the intifada, condemn Hamas, condemn Palestinians every time they hit back against their occupier/perpetrator of genocide. Yeah. I see you. Anyone who reads outside accepted Western literature and thinkers knows exactly what you're doing there. (For the love of your favorite deity, if you've read Chomsky (first of all, good) or shared Heather Cox Richardson, read some Edward Said and Rashid Khalidi!!) What you're doing is racism and Islamophobia, by the way.

Also after 100 years of ethnic cleansing by Israel on Palestinians, the very best you can do is some provisional demilitarized state with a list of restrictions?? This seems rather meaningless when they couldn't so much as say, let alone try to stop, all the collective punishment, walls, checkpoints, land grabs, marauding settler gangs, occupation, apartheid, blockades, starvation, genocide. And they're still going to fund it.

Palestinians are REFUGEES in the land of their ancestors. Justice isn't a demilitarized speck of land that west&/US-backed Israel will continue to occupy and attack until the indigenous Palestinians are gone.

Step outside the propaganda and touch grass, read a book, talk to a human, idk - whatever brings you back to reality or helps you reconnect with the humanity you've lost trying to justify Israel's atrocities all this time.

My harshest words are aimed at world leaders. But i wouldn't mind if more people read Said and Khalidi before talking about Hamas or what Israel has the right to do under international law to the people it occupies or getting scared about Palestinians being fully free and humanized from the river to the sea.

I sent this as a letter to the editor to a paper in a city in NC, USA - it isn't getting published - so here it is.

Israel has tried brutally to make the Palestinian population it occupies disappear for as long as it has existed. The last few weeks have been a blur of agonizing sadness to anyone with a conscience--especially those of us with relatives there whose tax dollars are buying their mass murder. Children are eating sand because they've run out of animal feed. A reporter collapsed on air from hunger. A man filming Gaza's coast was murdered by Israel, blood dripping toward the camera. Israel bombed a Kindergarten yesterday. Again. Food is sitting in UNRWA warehouses at the border. Not a morsel--not even baby formula--is allowed in. Shame on this cruel world and all who enable occupation, apartheid and this calculated genocide, this forced starvation: Israel, Arab leaders, the EU, the US, Republicans, Democrats, me, you, God--everyone.

It's time to unite behind a UN mandated protective force in Gaza:

I wish for you what you wish for Palestinians.
