voting discussion is the us are so fucking useless you can say “idk I don’t really want to vote for the guy funding a genocide” and then some bitch will jump your throat and tell you you’re personally responsible for every bad thing in the United States getting worse even tho it’s been getting worse since before Trump got elected and when you point this out their rebuttal is Trump will do everything worse and also all democrat presidents have been hand tied and it’s not their fault like OK! 👍🏾

Palestine is NOT a trend. boycotting Israel-supporting companies is NOT a trend. your compassion for the innocent is NOT a trend. isreal was, is and WILL continue killing Palestinians and bombing Gaza for as long as the world is silent. do not stop talking about it. do not stop boycotting. never. stop.

If you’re tempted to say “it’s ok for Palestine to defend itself but it shouldn’t attack innocent civilians, that’s terrorism”, you need to understand that your statement is US imperialist propaganda and you are not the progressive that your tumblr account seems to convince you you are.
There has never been a war or conflict in human history that did not involve harm to civilians. The US and it’s allies however created this idea that warfare can be conducted “the right way”, trying to create this intellectual divide between war as a concept and violence against civilians as a concept. It then proceeded to commit some of the most horrific acts of violence against civilians in human history (the Vietnam War, the Korean War, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, everything in the Middle East), with incredibly high death tolls against innocent civilians.
When it comes to international diplomacy, which states conduct war “nicely” and which states do so terroristically is often determined by what the US wants you to think. The US invading multiple foreign countries is portrayed as righteous and their war crimes are accidental. Palestine defending itself against a genocidal state like Israel is considered wrong, and any of its war crimes are terrorism. The US intentionally created this conceptual divide between “correct” and “incorrect” warfare not because a difference logically exists (innocent people being killed is inherent to all conflict) but as a propaganda tactic.
If you’re a young person who sees yourself as a progressive but says “oh Palestine is so bad for involving civilians”, you should probably pick up a history book and find out how apartheid was ended in South Africa. Spoiler alert: Nelson and Winnie Mandela were “terrorists” who committed numerous targeted acts of violence against civilians. The US and UK voted against financial sanctions against apartheid South Africa in the UN general assembly because South Africa at the time was somewhere both states had financial interests and they preferred it remain as it was, a genocidal state.
Killing innocent people is morally wrong. But it is conservative propaganda to imply that any form of warfare is morally right. There is no form of war that has ever avoided civilian involvement, the US simply wants you to believe so in order to excuse its own behaviour historically. War has always resulted in innocent casualties, because war is horrific regardless of who is involved.
Considering that genocidal apartheid states have always resulted in resistance groups being forced to commit “terrorism” (Palestine, Ireland, South Africa), if Israel has an issue with what’s currently occurring, the first step would be to stop committing genocide. It’s actually incredibly easy to not have small resistance groups attacking you if you do not constantly create the conditions in which those groups are forced to exist to defend their right to life.

U.S. President Joe Biden arrived in Israel on Wednesday pledging solidarity in its war against Hamas and saying that a blast that killed huge numbers of Palestinians at a Gaza hospital appeared to have been caused not by Israel but by its foes.[...]
Speaking alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Biden said: "I was deeply saddened and outraged by the explosion of the hospital in Gaza yesterday, and based on what I've seen, it appears as though it was done by the other team, not you."[...]
Netanyahu thanked Biden for his "unequivocal support". President Isaac Herzog's office said the head of state had told Biden: "God bless you for protecting the nation of Israel."

its been rly heartening to see big tumblr accounts with a specific theme (or bit) take a moment to raise awareness for palestine. in many ways being vocally pro-palestine is far, far more important than donations right now. palestinians have said so too. if it weren't it wouldn't be so risky for people to speak out. its a war on human life but it's also a war on the very memory, culture and history of the palestinian people. we can help them fight the second one just by posting. solidarity matters more than anything in this moment.

I’ve never seen anything like the press conference from the Palestinian workers at Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza. They’re literally addressing the world surrounded by bodies on the ground. One is holding the corpse of a baby. I hope these images haunt every Zionist till the day they die.
