"Négationnisme du génocide : une diversion pour occuper l'espace médiatique.
Il y a une chose qui m'a toujours interpellée chez les partisans d'Israël : il y a deux courants contradictoires, les négationnistes du génocide des Palestiniens – "circulez il n'y a rien à voir" – et ceux qui en font l'apologie et scandent "tuez les tous". Mais ne trouvez-vous pas étonnant que les négationnistes ne s'insurgent quasiment jamais contre ceux qui en font l'apologie ?"

#Bipartisan Group of Senators Meets With #Netanyahu Despite #ICC Arrest Warrant
Pictures show Democrats like #ChuckSchumer standing next to Netanyahu, smiling.
By Sharon Zhang, Truthout
July 11, 2025"A bipartisan group of senators representing an eighth of the Senate posed for photos and met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his visit to the U.S. this week, sparking criticism over senators’ smiles next to a man wanted in the Hague for alleged war crimes in #Gaza.
"Netanyahu met with senators on Wednesday, with leaders for both parties, Senators #JohnThune (R-South Dakota) and Chuck Schumer (D-New York) in attendance. Lawmakers proudly posted photos of the meeting, saying that they discussed the genocide in Gaza and praised Israel and the U.S.’s war on Iran during the meeting.
"Netanyahu also met with House Speaker #MikeJohnson (R-Louisiana), the latter of whom said in a post on social media that the two 'discussed America’s commitment to Israel’s security and our shared goal of achieving a ceasefire agreement in Gaza.'
"Pictures of the Senate meeting also showed Senators #CoryBooker (D-New Jersey), #MariaCantwell (D-Washington), Bill Cassidy (R-Louisiana), #ChrisCoons (D-Delaware), Steve Daines (R-Montana), Jon Husted (R-Ohio), #AmyKlobuchar (D-Minnesota), Dave McCormick (R-Pennsylvania), Jim Risch (R-Idaho), #JackyRosen (D-Nevada), and #AdamSchiff (D-California).
"The lawmakers posed next to a table set with food and drinks. Sen. #TedCruz (R-Texas), who has already drawn criticism for being on vacation in Greece amid the devastating floods in his state last week, was also at the meeting.
"Lawmakers have drawn criticism for meeting with Netanyahu as his government moves toward expelling all #Palestinians from #Gaza, through death or force. Earlier this week, Netanyahu’s Defense Minister, #IsraelKatz, told reporters that he has instructed the military to plan for confining all Palestinians in Gaza into a camp where they won’t be allowed to leave — a plan likened to #ConcentrationCamps by advocates for #PalestinianRights.
" 'Yesterday these Senators took part in a photo-op with Netanyahu, who is wanted for war crimes. Shameful,' wrote the Institute for Middle East Understanding Policy Project in a post on social media.
" '#Genocide is #bipartisan,' said Rep. #RashidaTlaib (D-Michigan).
" 'In a just world, every one of these Democratic senators would be primaried — especially the hypocritical Cory Booker who is wisely trying to hide his face in this picture,' said Zeteo Editor-in-Chief Mehdi Hasan. Indeed, Booker and Klobuchar are standing behind other senators in photos posted online.
"The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued a warrant for the arrest of Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister #YoavGallant in November. But both officials have since visited the White House, under both the Trump and Biden administrations, with U.S. officials purposefully defying the Hague.
"In fact, earlier this week, the U.S. State Department threatened the ICC in a UN meeting ahead of Netanyahu’s visit, demanding that it drop the charges against Netanyahu and Gallant and terminate 'all investigations and all arrest warrants' against Israel.
"Netanyahu met with President Donald #Trump this week to discuss a proposal for a temporary ceasefire deal in Gaza. However, despite agreement from both parties on the objectives of the genocide, Netanyahu left Washington without the parties announcing a deal. Netanyahu has been accused numerous times of purposely sabotaging ceasefire talks in order to prolong the genocide and stay in power."

As Freed #Palestinians Describe #Torture, Trump OKs $3 Billion #Arms Package for #Israel
Like the #Biden administration, Trump is claiming an "emergency" in order to bypass Congress.
Brett Wilkins, Feb 28, 2025
"As #Palestinians released from Israeli imprisonment recount torture and other abuse suffered at the hands of their former captors, the Trump administration on Friday approved a new $3 billion weapons package for Israel.
"The new package, reported by Zeteo's Prem Thakker, includes nearly $2.716 billion worth of bombs and weapons guidance kits, as well as $295 million in bulldozers. The Trump administration said that 'an emergency exists that requires the immediate sale,' allowing it to bypass Congress, as the #Biden administration did on multiple occasions. However, the weapons won't be delivered until 2026 or 2027.
"From October 2023 to October 2024, Israel received a record $17.9 billion worth of U.S. arms as it waged a war of annihilation against the #GazaStrip that left more than 170,000 #Palestinians dead, maimed, or missing and millions more displaced, starved, or sickened. Israel is facing #genocide allegations in an International Court of Justice case brought by South Africa. The International Criminal Court has also issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister #YoavGallant.
"Reporting on the new package came after U.S. Sen. #BernieSanders (I-Vt.) on Monday announced an effort to block four other arms sales totaling $8.56 billion in offensive American weaponry to Israel.
"Meanwhile, some of the approximately 1,000 Palestinians released by Israel as part of a prisoner swap described grim stories of abuse by Israeli forces. The former detainees, who were arrested but never charged with any crimes, 'have returned visibly malnourished and scarred by the physical and psychological torture they say they faced in Israeli prisons,' according to The Washington Post. Some returned to what were once their homes to find them destroyed and their relatives killed or wounded by Israeli forces.
"Eyas al-Bursh, a doctor volunteering at al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City when he was captured by Israeli troops, was held in Sde Teiman and the Ofer military prison in the illegally occupied West Bank for 11 months.
"'The places where we were held were harsh, sleep was impossible, and we remained handcuffed and blindfolded,' al-Bursh told the Post.
"'We endured psychological and physical torture without a single day of respite—whether through beatings, abuse, punches, or even verbal insults and humiliation,' he added.
"The #IsraelDefenseForces told the Post that it 'acts in accordance with Israeli and international law in order to protect the rights of the detainees held in the detention and questioning facilities.'"
