A must read, especially in the middle of propaganda from Western politicians and medias…
The Lemkin Institute has had it with the cynical lies and propaganda from Israel and the USA. One can have different views about the definition of genocide, but one may not use definitional disputes to deny genocide. If a genocide may be occurring, every nation is compelled by customary law to try to stop it.
Let us be clear: Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. The US is complicit in genocide. These are not political statements. They are statements that are made from knowledge and experience. Nevertheless, you do not need a PhD , a law degree, or X-ray vision to see the genocidal dimensions of Israel’s carnage in Gaza. It is clear in the behavior of the state and its military, on full display in yesterday’s horrific bombardment of a Rafah camp.
But even if there were legitimate doubts about Israel’s genocide, there is no doubt that Israel is committing atrocity crimes of the most barbaric kind. Israel must be stopped. Israel must be stopped now.
We are disgusted by Western leaders, especially in the USA, Germany, and the UK. They have demonstrated not only that they don’t care one bit about genocide prevention and human rights, but also that they are willing to allow an ally to commit atrocity crimes while they offer material and diplomatic support. It is reprehensible and the individuals involved in this gaslighting campaign should be deeply ashamed. They should also be put on trial.
Humanity has a choice: Either we decide that our children can all be killed whenever a superior force alleges that “terrorists” are among us, or we decide that under no circumstances will we allow these superior forces to lay waste to our world any longer.
We each must choose and act accordingly. The watershed moment is now.

Israel’s attack on Kamal Adwan Hospital is just the latest step in its systematic destruction of the entire healthcare system of Gaza, which has included attacks on all hospitals, the kidnapping, imprisoning, torture, & murder of medical professionals, & the blocking of medical supplies. It mirrors the systematic destruction of the systems for food, water, shelter, education, & culture. Anyone still calling this a “war”, and denying genocide, is morally complicit. Call them out.

I join this urgent plea.
Palestinians must be protected, especially those who have become icons of humanity in the face of an implacable genocide.
Our leaders must demand the immediate and safe release of Dr Hussam Abu Safiya and all detained Gaza health workers @Keir_Starmer @DavidLammy @HFalconerMP
Health workers are not a target, and impunity for Israel's destruction of Palestinian healthcare must end.
Please share.

Medical staff 'burnt alive' at Gaza's Kamal Adwan Hospital after Israeli forces sets fire to it

1/ Israel generates two kinds of nothingness. The first is the desolation of Gaza. We "destroy" - Hamas, all structures and infrastructure, "collateral damage". It isn't about death, although we don't object to death. It is about oblivion. Gaza must be scoured. --->

This is what happens all the time — it’s called de-confliction. The UN shares coordinates and mission plans with belligerents to avoid targeting of aid workers and officials.
The only difference is Israel then goes on to directly strike those coordinates.

For over a year, the world has been bearing witness to unfathomable levels of death and destruction in the occupied Gaza Strip. Act now and call on Israel to immediately stop committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza ⬇️

Ces gens sans scrupule généralement affidés au Printemps républicain et pro génocidaires, mais niant en chœur le génocide à Gaza, bénéficient de la mansuétude duplice d’une justice aux ordres du pouvoir. @CaronAymericoff, sois encore assuré de mon soutien indéfectible.
Ah ne manquait plus que la sérial-menteuse Fourest dans la vague de harcèlement que le Printemps (anti) Républicain et ses copains-copines ont décidé de lancer contre moi à l’occasion de Noël (ils font ça régulièrement).
Après Aram, Banon, Wargon, aidés par le facho Goldnadel, plus quelques autres encore plus anonymes, voici la reine du mensonge qui entre en piste (dans une tribune publiée dans l’Obs, quatorze femmes ont relevé au moins 11 grosses erreurs dans son dernier livre, et Mediapart a aussi débunké d’autres mensonges).
Mais qu’attendre d’autre de cette spécialiste de rien qui parle de tout, à tort et à travers, accumulant erreurs et désinformation ? Souvenez-vous comment elle était venue sur un plateau télé défendre l’armée israélienne pour affirmer avec l’assurance qu’on lui connaît qu’il fallait « diviser par 10 » le bilan des victimes de Gaza annoncé par le ministère de la santé du Hamas (là encore, contre tous les usages constatés lors des précédentes offensives de l’armée israélienne). En réalité les chiffres donnés par le Hamas étaient… sous-estimés.
Les fachos pro-génocide, malgré la CPI, la CIJ, Amnesty International, Médecins du Monde, Human Rights Watch, malgré les analyses des historiens israéliens spécialistes des génocides, continuent à vouloir minimiser les atrocités commises par l’armée israélienne à Gaza.
Et pire: ils harcèlent, en meute, et s’étonnent qu’on leur réponde, se déclarant alors victimes de harcèlement. Le comble du minable.
Ah encore une chose @CarolineFourest : arrêtez d’évoquer Charlie pour vous donner de la crédibilité, à tout de champ. J’étais un lecteur de Charlie, de la première heure, et cela me dégoûte que vous salissiez en permanence la mémoire de ce journal.
Je vous laisse, vous avez encore des coups de fil à passer pour faire écrire des tweets contre moi par le reste du Printemps (anti) Republicain.

The question posed by Gaza is much more radical than people think. Not a question of what kind of freedom or equality or justice is possible under an American led order but a question of what peoples or nations will be allowed to physically survive under such an order

Killing 5 journalists because you don't like their reporting is terrorism.
And still their cowardly colleagues in the Western press won't speak up.

Le mouvement BDS a mis à jour ses cibles prioritaires, ses cibles de pression et ses cibles organiques. Boycottez et faites pression dès maintenant sur ces entreprises pour leur complicité dans l'occupation, l'apartheid et le génocide israéliens des Palestinien·nes.

Israel has now instituted the destruction of hospitals as a critical part of the conduct of war. The rest of humanity will pay the price.

Israel admits it killed journalists it knew were journalists and not Hamas fighters. Journalists all over the world keep silent
IDF is now openly acknowledging the 5 journalists they incinerated were indeed operating as journalists, but the IDF believed their work was “combat propaganda.”
The IDF is entitled to its opinion and is free to engage in media criticism, but deliberately killed 5 journalists because you don’t like their work is terrorism, barbarism, a crime against humanity, and should be prosecuted immediately

Israel is the only country in the world that murders children and masses of innocent people, and bombs schools, hospitals, and UN shelters as part of its public and declared policy. There was never anything like it
🚨Breaking: The Israeli military has surrounded Kamal Adwan Hospital and ordered everyone inside to gather in the outdoor square
The Ministry of Health has lost communication with the hospital. It reports the Israeli army sent a message to Dr. Hussam Abu Safiyeh, the hospital director, instructing him to bring patients and carers to the courtyard within 15 minutes, and told him that the army would storm the hospital after that.

Israel Is Killing Civilians In Gaza On Purpose, And It’s Not Even Debatable
Just so we’re all clear, it is a fully established fact that the IDF is directly, deliberately killing civilians in Gaza. There was a time in the early days of the genocide when this could be disputed, but that is no longer true. The facts are in and the case is closed. It’s happening.
Israeli soldiers are telling the press that they’ve been knowingly killing civilians and then falsely categorizing them as terrorists afterward. Countless doctors have testified to routinely encountering dead and wounded children who’ve been shot in the head by Israeli snipers. Israeli media reports have revealed that the IDF is intentionally targeting civilian infrastructure and using AI systems to specifically target suspected Hamas members when they are at home with their families instead of out on the battlefield.
The debate is over. The “human shields” argument has been completely, thoroughly debunked. If you still deny that this is happening, its because your worldview is so false that it requires you to deny facts and reality.

Israelis will torture him. Maybe rape him like they did other doctors. They hate him because they know they will never have an ounce of his goodness, his integrity, his faith and power of character. They hate him because he is a native son and they are foreign colonizers who can never belong to the land. They hate him because he is educated and smarter than them. They hate him because they know he loves his ancestors while they are the only people in the world who hate and disavow their ancestors. They hate him because they hate themselves. They hate him because he is light and they are darkness. Because the whole world loves him and the whole world hates them. They hate him because they want to be him and know that they can never even come close.
