Remember: Anne Frank wasn’t thrown into a gas chamber. She died of typhus, likely contracted from the filthy, overcrowded conditions at Bergen-Belsen. Yet, to call her anything but a very much intended victim of the Holocaust is basically Holocaust denial.
What, then, is this?
The more gear they wear, the more they feel they have carte blanche for violence

Again recalling this conversation @davidgraeber recounted having with ‘an economist from one of the Bretton Woods institutions’
ALT “The approach of US prosecutors to fraud is always negotiate a settlement. They don’t want a trial. Upshot is the institution has to pay a fine, sometimes in 100,000,000s but they don’t actually admit to criminal liability. Their lawyers say they won’t contest the charge, but if they pay, they haven’t technically been found guilty of anything.” “So if the government discovers Goldman Sachs or Bank of America has committed fraud they effectively just charge them a penalty fee.” “That’s right.” “So the question is: has there ever been a case where the penalty was more than the amount made from the fraud itself?” “Oh no, not to my knowledge. Usually substantially less.” “What are we talking here, 50%?” “More like 20–30% on average. It varies considerably.” “Doesn’t that effectively mean the govt is saying you can commit all the fraud you like, but if we catch you, you’re going to have to give us our cut?” “Well obviously I can’t put it that way myself as long as I have this job…”

Heartbreaking. Heartbreaking. Heartbreaking.
Eight-year-old Fatima Hisham al-Bayook has succumbed to her injuries after being struck by an Israeli bullet a few days ago east of Deir al-Balah, Gaza.
There had been desperate pleas for her urgent medical evacuation in the hope of saving her life.
After contacting her family, I can also confirm that Fatima’s mother and two younger siblings were killed in an Israeli strike on December 13, 2023.
Her siblings were Leen, a baby less than a year old, and Asaad, just three years old.
Israel’s terror and the systematic destruction of Palestinian families continue to unfold before the eyes of the world.
Remember their names.

The 2SS is not meant to be a “solution”. It is meant to be an exhaust vent for people who are either morally indifferent or committed to the ethnic cleansing and genocide of Palestinians and need to buy Israel some more time to carry it out.

Position statement.
If Zionism were simply about establishing the right of Jews to live safely wherever they are, including in their ancestral homeland, I would be a Zionist.
But this isn't what Zionism is about. It is, and always has been, about creating a Jewish-majority state in a land where the majority of people are not Jewish. This necessarily means either removing most non-Jews or denying them citizenship. Zionists have done, and are still doing, both.
I believe in the right of ALL people to live safely wherever they are. I oppose every means used to drive people out of their homes and lands: mass murder, ethnic cleansing, systematic violence, denial of citizenship, violation of basic human rights.
Zionism uses all these means to create and maintain its Jewish state.
Therefore I am an anti-Zionist.

No. The IDF is an illegal occupying power. It has no right to "defend itself" by fighting justified resistance. As long as Israel is occupying stolen land, it will never have ANY justification for military action.

Money is created when government spends. Money is not the problem. The question is what we do with money and for whose benefit. Let's start with renewable energy, insulated homes, rent controls and council houses? Their economics has delivered poverty and billionaires. Enough!
“Next year he actually has to find the money that doesn’t exist.”
“There are things the Government can do that aren’t just about tax.”

In de Tweede Wereldoorlog pleegde het Nederlandse verzet in Putten een aanslag op Duitse officieren. Als wraak vernietigde het Duitse leger honderden huizen en werden onschuldige mannen opgepakt.
Na het dodelijke schietincident op twee soldaten, is de IDF gestart met een grootschalige anti-terreuroperatie in Hebron.

If these were 400 Jewish families ordered by ANYONE to leave their homes, it would be THE BIGGEST HEADLINE IN THE WORLD.

The thing about Google clearing a forest in Finland without permits is that they decided that whatever fine they might face is worth it. It doesn’t cost them as much as not getting the land cleared.
Because like ALL things, if the punishment is a fine, it isn’t really illegal for rich people.

I love how some politicians are suddenly screaming that collective punishment is a crime while watching Israel destroy yet another city not in Gaza this time, but in the occupied West Bank.
Gaza was reduced to rubble, with thousands still buried beneath it, through the very collective punishment they now claim to condemn.
YOU ALLOWED IT. ALL OF YOU DID.

This oversized fecal bacterium is doing the “Where is the Palestinian Gandhi?” routine in the year of our Lord 2026.
Where are the Israeli Gandhis, Seth? Are you one? Is it one of the friends you posed with when you went on a tour of the Gandhi-inspired genocide?
On the other hand, in the bigger picture, the "armed struggle" narrative has been around for decades. What has it achieved except destruction and war? Let's say someone could go back to the 60s and say "how about not armed struggle, how about learning from the more peaceful struggles in history that led to rights and states?"
Let's say one could go back to the 1990s when Yezid Sayigh published 'Armed Struggle and the Search for State: The Palestinian National Movement, 1949–1993' and make it clear that the continued attacks by Hamas (which aimed to derail and destroy the Oslo process) would lead to disaster?
What has "armed struggle" brought? Nothing. In fact, at each point when peace was becoming possible, or Palestinians were advancing toward more self-governance and rights..."armed struggle" systematically destroyed everything.
It didn't help in the 1960s and 1970s...it got the movement pushed out of Jordan and Lebanon and led to war in both places. When the movement chose Oslo there was some hope, but Hamas emerged and weakened that through "armed struggle."
When Israel left Gaza in 2005...there was a chance to build and show that peace could produce more peace. Instead there was the kidnapping of Schalit and then the Hamas illegal takeover. All this did was lead to war...
It has also systematically destroyed any Israeli interest and sympathy for the cause of two states and peace.
Armed struggle actually achieved the opposite of every single thing it was intended to do.
The people that will sit up and talk about "Northern Ireland as an example"...well surely one thing that happened in Northern Ireland is that they did decide to end the "armed struggle"...they didn't decide to massacre hundreds of civilians in bus bombings and at a music festival.
The armed struggle concept is one that has systematically destroyed Palestinian aspirations and derailed everything. Bizarrely there are some who see it differently.
There is zero evidence it has achieved anything. Those who may say "well it got the movement noticed" in the 1970s...peaceful protest and non-violence like Gandhi or MLK would have achieved far more.
