I left Reddit much too late. I guess some habits can be hard to break. Then I spent some time on kbin/mbin/fedia, and I’ll be staying here.
Btw I’m a non-binary trans person [they/she/he].
I don’t think that’s really the point. The point is that Israel is killing civilians including children, not soldiers.
Unfortunately, these are just articles that claim stuff, they do not include any actual and/or current researches. This is why they use terms like “trusted source”, or urge the reader to worry about something, instead of providing evidence and let the reader decide how to feel about these findings.
Also, they come from the mouthpieces that Zionist propaganda uses. Remember the debunked beheaded babies claims, or the weaponization of sexual violence claims, or the human shield claims - to name just a few that were covered by these media.
Still, thank you for taking the time.
Could you please share a link supporting your claim that doesn’t come from a zionist propaganda machine?
It could be true that she broke the law.
Breaking the law on this topic is not hard in France, since unfortunately it is part of the (post)colonial countries that equate anti-zionism with antisemitism.
So criticizing the settler colonial state of Israel can mean you break the law, without taking into consideration that Zionism is a political movement that has been criticized by Jews since its inception. Jewish voice for Peace have a great article about it: Our Approach to Zionism. And they are not the only ones.
Or supporting that Palestinians have human rights like any other person on this planet - like to be against Israel’s apartheid for example - is considered terrorism, more often than not.
Please, let’s not be so quick to defend France or any colonial country
Edit: A relavant article. It’s in relation to the Lellouche law, from Haaretz - BDS a Hate Crime? In France, Legal Vigilance Punishes anti-Israel Activists
Ban Apartheid Israel from Sports
Palestinian players and athletes are routinely attacked, imprisoned and killed. Athletes are denied freedom of movement to attend their own matches, competitions and trainings. Palestinian stadiums and sports infrastructures have been bombed and destroyed. Israel even prevents sports equipment from being imported and sports facilities from being developed.
Racism against Palestinians is institutionalized in Israeli sports – from segregated youth football leagues to anti-Palestinian hate from fan clubs that goes routinely unpunished.
In addition, Israeli football and basketball clubs based in illegal settlements are allowed to compete in official Israeli leagues, making international governing bodies FIFA and FIBA complicit in Israel’s violations of international law.
Despite all this, Western dominated sports bodies have looked the other way, refusing to take action. More than 300 Palestinian sports clubs and dozens of civil society organizations are calling to #BanIsrael from the Olympics. Join us as we seek to ban Israel from international sports forums, including the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and FIFA, until it ends its grave crimes against Palestinians and its attacks on Palestinian sports.
I suppose a more accurate title would be:
“IDF unsuccessfully tries to distance itself from ‘no return’ remarks about north Gaza evacuees”
You’re totally right, legality should not be a concern in cases like that.
What I liked in this article is that it gives examples of actions on several levels, and I think this is important because a tone of things need to be done to effectively fight fascism in societies.
I need evidence
Maybe The dawn of everything: A new history of humanity by David Graeber and David Wengrow could be a nice start?

Coincidentally, I’m also queer, an immigrant most of my life (since childhood actually and in several places), and I am most probably neurodivergent, but never had the money to check this out officially.
I think understand what you say. Still, the way I see things if we do a statement/analysis mentioning humans I believe we are condemned to arrive to the wrong conclusions if we only take into account the dominant civilization/culture. Or see things through its narrative.
I’m not saying to discard its importance. I’m just saying it’s equally important to take into consideration broader inputs through time and space, to try to have a clearer picture.
Something like that.
No, I don’t agree with this at all. It tells us something about capitalism. It tells us something about how the U.S. are nowadays. Nothing more, nothing less.
Please do keep in mind that Zionists and Jews are not synonyms. Jews have been opposing Zionism since its inception and keep doing so in large numbers. See also:
Our Approach to Zionism - JVP - Jewish Voice for Peace
Jewish Voice for Peace is guided by a vision of justice, equality and freedom for all people. We unequivocally oppose Zionism because it is counter to those ideals.
May I add that these notes where provided to the NYT by the Israeli military?
Minutes of Hamas’s secret meetings, seized by the Israeli military and obtained by The New York Times,
So after all the debunked fabricated lies that Israel has spread thanks to the press during the last 12 months, are we supposed to take what the IDF gives in good faith?
It looks like the U.S. Journalist Jeremy Loffredo was released
Although an Israeli judge granted his release from police custody, he was ordered to remain in the country until October 20, allowing investigators more time to bring additional allegations or to further interrogate Loffredo,
Israeli police had held Loffredo, an independent journalist from New York, on suspicion of assisting an enemy in war, a serious allegation that carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment or death,
“The claim that Loffredo and The Grayzone represent Israel’s enemy in wartime merely suggests that the Israeli government views the American people and free press as a legitimate target,”
The statement also called on the U.S. State Department to come to Loffredo’s defense, saying that the U.S. “has an obligation to defend its journalists who are merely adhering to their ethical obligation to inform the public of pertinent facts.”
U.S. Aid to Israel in Four Charts || Council on Foreign Relations || 31 Mai 2024
Israel has been the largest cumulative recipient of U.S. foreign aid since its founding, receiving about $310 billion (adjusted for inflation) in total economic and military assistance.
I would argue that Zionists started killing children in 1947.

Israel’s siege now blocks 83% of food aid reaching Gaza, new data reveals
New data has revealed the scale of aid obstruction, and the consequential drastic fall in aid entering Gaza. This is driving a humanitarian disaster, with the entire population of Gaza facing hunger and disease, and almost half a million at risk of starvation.
Data analysis by organisations working in Gaza has found that as a consequence of the Israeli government’s obstruction of aid:
- 83% of required food aid does not make it into Gaza, up from 34% in 2023.This reduction means people in Gaza have gone from having an average of two meals a day to just one meal every other day. An estimated 50,000 children aged between 6-59 months urgently require treatment for malnutrition by the end of the year.
- 65% of the insulin required and half of the required blood supply are not available in Gaza.
- Availability of hygiene items has dropped to 15% of the amount available in September 2023. One million women are now going without the hygiene supplies they need.
- Only around 1,500 hospital beds in Gaza remain operational, compared to around 3,500 beds in 2023 which was already well below sufficient to meet the needs of a population of more than 2 million people. By comparison, cities of similar size, such as Chicago and Paris average 5 to 8 times more beds than in Gaza.
- 1.87 million people are in need of shelter with at least 60% of homes destroyed or damaged (January 2024). Yet tents for around just 25,000 people have entered Gaza since May 2024.
The IDF targets hospitals because they WANT to target hospitals.
They even gave a name to it:
Explainer: The Dahiya Doctrine & Israel’s Use of Disproportionate Force
The Dahiya Doctrine is an Israeli military doctrine that calls for the use of massive, disproportionate force and the deliberate targeting of civilians and civilian infrastructure.
Thanks for sharing this cause what he says and what AP reports are quite different. And I’m saying that not being a fan of him, on the contrary.
I don’t understand this logic. You claim that the US is supporting by all means a genocide because it’s election year and out of fear of being called antisemites by the republicans? Therefore, after the elections this genocide will not be supported by the democrats anymore?
I’m sorry, this doesn’t make any sense to me.
@MicroWave@lemmy.world a gentle reminder. Please do try to keep count of how many articles you post in this community per day.
