not that either is a good thing but there is a small cosmic sort of irony to appreciate in the way that the russian invasion of ukraine and the most recent nakba happened so close together and how they through comparison made it undeniably clear how much the definition of war crime and genocide and atrocity &etc depends on the geopolitical interests of the imperial core
white usamerican liberals pretend they want a multicultural society until the multiculturals start talking about how we’re victimized by colonialism and white supremacy. you say you love your diverse city and then harass people with family in palestine for not voting for the man committing genocide against them?? if you want “diversity” you have to swallow the reality that people of color are also human and have our own perspectives and priorities and loved ones to protect, if you want an “international community” you have to treat people outside europe and its white settler colonies with the same respect as your own community, and if you can’t do those things stop claiming to be anything other than a white supremacist
"Today marks one year since the death of the People’s Bubbie Shatzi Weisberger. Before she passed, she said, “I’ll fight like hell for a free Palestine until the day I die. Then I’ll keep fighting. Your queer ancestor is with you.”
If you’ve been rising up in solidarity with Palestine these past two months, your queer ancestor is indeed with you, along with countless other antizionist Jewish ancestors. For many, family and community rifts may be especially painful right now. No matter what, you are not alone. Remember that you have a long lineage of elders and ancestors at your back.
Last night, Israel resumed its brutal bombing of Gaza and has already killed dozens of people. Shatzi would encourage all of us to do everything we can right now for a permanent, lasting ceasefire. To mourn the dead and fight like hell for the living.
Shatzi died on World AIDS Day, which was b’sheret ("destined”) because in addition to being a lifelong organizer, she was a nurse for 47 years who cared for people living and dying with AIDS.
From ACT UP’s organizing to end AIDS to the movement for Palestinian freedom, we honor the ancestors and movements who made us possible."
We will be forever grateful to the ancestors who paved the path before us. May their memories fuel us to work towards freedom for all people — no exceptions."
My blog is not for Israelis to come and complain, I'm Egyptian, I'm pro-palestinian, you don't like that that's your issue, don't come at me with our peace treaty, that's politics & I'm no politician but I speak with FACTS, so don't come at me with your made up history expecting from me to just sit & shut up cause buddy that's the only thing I've never known how to do especially when it comes at the expense of defending the poor & what I believe for.
From the river to the see Palestine will be free.
