  1. The person in the picture is Yoav Gallant, who lived his childhood in the Shabazi neighborhood in Jaffa.

    He admitted it himself: "Our house was an Arab house." The house belonged to the Tarfawi and Abu Khadra families before they were displaced in 1948. The state confiscated it and handed it over to the Gallant family, who had immigrated from Ukraine.

    The Embrace That Betrayed the Covenant

    Gallant recounts it himself in a November 2023 interview:

    "I lived inside a Palestinian home with a Palestinian Arab Muslim family. One of the two brothers used to sit me on his lap and give me 'licorice' candy."

    A Palestinian from Jaffa carried him when he was young. Fed him with his own hands. He played with their children in the courtyard. They opened their door for him and shared their home with him. This wasn't "coexistence." This was an act of grace and kindness from people whose lives were already shattered.

    Returning the Favor 50 Years Later

    Minister of Defense The same child grew up. Put on the uniform. Became a general. He then became the Israeli Minister of Defense from 2022 to 2024. He headed the Southern Command and led the war after October 7th.

    "Returning the Favor" On October 9, 2023, in cold blood, he announced:

    "I have ordered a complete siege. No electricity. No water. No food. No fuel. We are fighting human animals."

    The same tongue that ate licorice from the hand of a Palestinian is the one that described his grandchildren as "human animals."

    What did "Returning the Favor" do?

    The Siege: Cutting off water, electricity, fuel, and medicine from 2.3 million human beings.

    The Killing: By August 2026, over 60,000 martyrs have fallen. Among them are 24,000 children and 17,000 orphans.

    The Destruction: Bombing 625 schools and 36 hospitals. Entire neighborhoods flattened to the ground.

    The Starvation: Denying milk to infants. Children dying of hunger and cold in tents.

    A testimony: "Mahmoud, the son of the brother who used to hold Gallant on his lap, was martyred in the bombing of Gaza in 2024."

    The Breakdown

    The path is clear and direct:

    Beneficiary of the Nakba → Lived in a stolen house.

    Raised in the victim's embrace → Ate, drank, and played with them.

    Killer of the victim → Besieged, starved, and bombed them.

    "Is the reward for good [anything] but good?" Yet the reward was: siege, starvation, displacement, and being labeled as animals.

    "And never will the Jews or the Christians approve of you until you follow their religion." They want you to forget, to normalize, to justify... until you become like them.

    This is not an "understanding of the Arab mind," as he claimed. This is called: Treachery. Betrayal. Rape of the land and theft of identity.

  2. "The lies and culture that made Israeli society support genocide"

    Watch a conversation with Orly Noy, a political activist, and a translator of Farsi poetry and prose. She is the chair of B’Tselem’s executive board and an activist with the Balad political party.

  4. "The Zionist produces and defines itself through the animalization of the Palestinian."

    "Palestinian liberation is an impossibility in the current ordering of knowledge and being, similarly demanding through its realization the end of […] this world, and modernity."

    This paper "posits that Palestinian freedom necessitates the creation of new worlds and [the getting rid of encumbering] constructs such as modernity and the Human."

  5. On the neocons all over again – Amir Tibon in Haaretz:
    The experiment would ‘go something like this: American companies will begin operating in southern Gaza, under the supervision of the Israeli military, in a "humanitarian compound" surrounded by barbed wire. Two million Gazan citizens will be concentrated in this compound to get food and aid, while Israel will take over the rest of Gaza and use the pressure put on Gaza's population in order to topple the Hamas regime.’
    (…)
    ‘If all this sounds familiar to you, that means you've probably lived through the Iraq War and the "happy" days of American contractors operating under military guidance in an attempt to "separate the local population from the terrorists" and replace the regime, but it's unclear with what exactly.’
    (…)
    ‘Two decades later, they are promoting their Gaza plan in similar fashion – and so far, despite all the rage about the "neocons disrupting his agenda," the president seems to buy it.’

  6. "Like many women in Israel, I have also experienced a rude feminist awakening during this war. I’ve lost Palestinian comrades who did not like my condemnation of Hamas’ violence against Israeli women on October 7, and I’ve lost Jewish friends who regarded women in Gaza as legitimate targets.

    "After some painful reflection, I’ve come to learn the strength and courage we women must cultivate to unequivocally denounce any violence against a woman’s body as abhorrent, whether" the aggressor is Palestinian or Israelian.

  7. "When the EU pressures other countries, such as South Africa and others in the Global South, to align with its geopolitical priorities (on Ukraine/Russia), while giving itself a pass when convenient (on Israel/Palestine), it grates in other parts of the world and undermines the very case for the “rules-based international order” that the EU purports to defend and exemplify."

  8. As Jaffa Tel Aviv and Washington, DC, quietly court #Somaliland as a destination for Gaza’s displaced, this British-controlled enclave on the Red Sea emerges as both a strategic imperial launchpad and a potential open-air prison for Palestinians – armed, trained, and surveilled by London: thecradle.co/articles/sights-s

  9. 'It is overwhelming for people to see and recognize the #genocide not only because it is reminiscent of the same forms of genocide we witnessed in Bosnia and Kosovo but also because the same tactics of dehumanization and mass murder are deployed in the ostensibly “defense” of “civilization” from “terrorism.” The destruction of people, lives, land, and cultural and religious sites are working out in the same way they did in the 1990s and their justifications are anchored in Islamophobic, racist, and colonial articulations of mass murder in the name of Western liberalism.'

  10. CW: State violence on children 🧵

    "I feel because you can't unsee what you have seen."
    Respect to #SarahChampion, #Labour MP, for handling the hearing with so much care.

    British surgeon giving evidence to the parliamentary International Development Committee:
    "So the drones woud come down and pick off civilians, children."

    The present video goes longer than the excerpt chosen by the #BBC. The national broadcaster notably chose to cut the phrases:
    "We had one or two mass casualty incidents every day."
    "It was a persistent act, persistent targeting of civilians day after day."

  11. CW: "The Special Rapporteur urges Member States to: (a) Use all their political leverage" 🧵

    #Recommendations from the Report of the UN Special Rapporteur:

    "VIII. Recommendations

    "The current genocide is part of a century-long project of eliminatory settler-colonialism in @palestine, a stain on the international system and humanity, which must be ended, investigated and prosecuted.
    The Special Rapporteur reminds all States of their legal obligation to act on their due diligence duties given the clearly serious risk of continuous breach of the Genocide Convention and Geneva Conventions, and urges States to consider and reach an urgent public determination as to what levers and tools each State has at its disposal to ameliorate that risk, whether acting alone or with other States, including at the United Nations; and to explain to the public and the international community the steps which it has taken and why.

    Whether in compliance with the above due diligence duties or otherwise, the Special Rapporteur urges Member States to:
    (a) Use all their political leverage – commencing with a full arms embargo and sanctions – so that Israel stops the assault against the Palestinians, accepts a ceasefire and fully withdraws from the occupied Palestinian territory in line with the ICJ Advisory Opinion of 19 July 2024;

    (b) Formally recognize Israel as an apartheid State and persistent violator of international law, reactivating the Special Committee Against Apartheid to comprehensively address the situation in Palestine, and warn Israel of possible suspension of its membership under Article 6 of the Charter of the United Nations;

    (c) Support the deployment of an international protective presence throughout the occupied Palestinian territory;

    (d) Develop a protective framework for Palestinians displaced outside Gaza, in line with international human rights and refugee law, while fully preserving their right to return;

    (e) Support independent and thorough investigation(s) of criminal conduct, including genocide and apartheid, including through the application in national courts of universal jurisdiction over those suspected of such criminal conduct, including all relevant ancillary offences;

    (f) Investigate and prosecute corporate entities and dual citizens involved in crimes in the occupied Palestinian territory, including soldiers, mercenaries and settlers;

    (g) Ensure unhindered humanitarian assistance to Gaza and full financing and protection of UNRWA, including from attacks on its premises and personnel and from libellous smear campaigns, and ensure the continuity of its mandate in all fields.

    The Special Rapporteur urges the ICC Prosecutor to investigate the commission of the crimes of genocide and apartheid by Israel, and investigate other prominent individuals mentioned in the present report.
    The Special Rapporteur urges the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel to investigate the broader context of eliminatory intent and practices of Israel against all Palestinians (triple lens test), including those with Israeli citizenship and the refugees, and recent acts of genocide."
