Probably comes with a picture and backstory of Prænh too, lol.

World is now the Reddit of Lemmy.

Good, one should always refer to the Ministry of Truth before deciding what is true or false for The Party.

Basic law:

The right to exercise national self-determination in the State of Israel is unique to the Jewish people.

I think what’s missing here is the existence of legal precedence. The UN had an arms embargo on apartheid South Africa starting in the 70s, so there’s precedent for that.

Fun fact: Israel violated the South Africa arms embargo. Big time.

In a way:

Most anti-BDS laws have taken one of two forms: contract-focused laws requiring government contractors to promise that they are not boycotting Israel; and investment-focused laws, mandating public investment funds to avoid entities boycotting Israel.

Very strange to have government contractors and managers of public funds swearing an oath to protect a different country. Similar situation in the UK. Interestingly enough, this is another case of “birds of a feather flock together”:

On May 17, 2019, right-wing populist party Alternative for Germany sponsored a bill “Condemn the BDS movement – protect the existence of the State of Israel” (19/9757) to ban the BDS movement nationally.

The UN had an arms embargo on apartheid South Africa starting in the 70s, so there’s precedent for that.

Fun fact: Israel violated the South Africa arms embargo. Big time.

The proposal says, "The Israeli Knesset firmly opposes the establishment of a Palestinian state west of the Jordan

Between the sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty… I’m not a call to genocide you are!

He’s a bit ahead of schedule for the 100 year re-enactment of the Pro–Wailing Wall Committee.

Always has been.

From the late nineteenth century onwards pictures and postcards often depicted a rebuilt Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount, sometimes next to al-Aqsa Mosque or the Dome of the Rock and sometimes in their place.

they scream “self defense” hard enough while bribing politicians everyone will keep supporting their Genocide.

And should you happen to be a supporter of human rights and international law they will scream “antisemitism” hard enough until you lose your job.

Their source is an Israeli organization, lol. There are so many parallels between Israel’s theft of Palestine and the Europeans’ theft of North America, “their education/religion/culture is terrorism” is just another one on the list.

Aaahh capitalism. This is what business school graduates call “innovation” and “smart”.

But seriously, I’m sorry that happened to you. It’s predatory, abusive, and wrong.

That was a way worse path to NATO membership than just fixing the corruption issues that were keeping them out of NATO in the first place.

Wait so what’s your take on this (from the article)

Video circulating online Saturday shows an IDF helicopter taking off from the beach with the U.S. pier in the backdrop. Two U.S. officials told CBS News that the U.S. pier was not used in the IDF operation. It is offshore to assist delivery of humanitarian aid. A U.S. official explained that the helicopter landed south of the facility on a beach but not within the cordoned area of the pier.

“The pier facility was not used in the operation to rescue hostages today in Gaza. An area south of the facility was used to safely return the hostages to Israel,” a U.S. official said. “Any such claim to the contrary is false. The temporary pier on the coast of Gaza was put in place for one purpose only, to help get more urgently needed lifesaving assistance into Gaza.”

nearly 20 million pounds of food ashore since it began on May 17.

With a population of around 2 million in Gaza that’s 10 pounds of food per person over some 50 days. About 90 grams of food per person per day. 90 grams is like half an apple.

Jfc, and no working hospitals for the wounded. No medicine, and no food. This is unconscionable.

Is Israel going to just keep re-bombing and re-displacing the entirety of Palestine?

I wonder how it would read if they quoted the Russian military in the headline on the right.

Hamas hasn’t been around for 75 years.

And helping Hamas get into power in order to

• destroy Palestinian unity
• squash secular, progressive, democratic leadership
• promote violence

If you want to see what happens when Palestinians cooperate with Israel, look at the West Bank:
