UN warnen vor "massiver Katastrophe" im südlichen Gazastreifen


Tausende Palästinenser fliehen angesichts der Kämpfe im Gazastreifen nach Rafah. Schon jetzt ist die Lage in der Stadt an der Grenze zu Ägypten angespannt. Halte die Massenflucht weiter an, werde dies verheerende Folgen haben, warnen die UN.#Nahost #Israel #Gaza #Massenflucht #UN
UN warnen vor "massiver Katastrophe" im südlichen Gazastreifen


Children in Gaza are dying of hypothermia.


They are dying of #hypothermia.

In January 2024. Not 1800 or 1900, in 21st century TODAY.

They are not getting enough food to be able to create body heat to deal with the low temperature so they are simply dying, in silence, with no one watching, no one documenting it, no one giving a shit.

With no internet and world busy with US/UK attacks against Yemen to save the precious cargo to reach Israel, the media have an excuse to ignore the suffering in #Gaza.

I am just losing it. This is so freaking depressing!

“This is a fundamental part of their settler colonial project. The best way to describe what Israel is doing is in a sense a permanent war on Palestinian society in order to take over Palestinian land and territory”.

Bashir Abu-Manneh, a professor of post-colonial literature at the University of Kent in the United Kingdom

So let’s do some maths:

Israel’s military estimates that out of the 13,000 or so Palestinians it has killed in seven weeks, 1,000 - 2,000 of them are Hamas fighters.

They estimate about 30,000 Hamas fighters in total and their stated goal is to wipe out Hamas entirely.

Given the current ratio of deaths, how many Palestinians will they have to kill to wipe out Hamas?

Answer: 195,000 - 390,000

(But don’t call it genocide.)

But, yes, this all started on October 7, 2023.

It’s hard to watch the horrific scenes coming from Gaza and the escalating death toll, which includes such a high number of children.

I was happy to speak with @marwasf about the information war on social media, internet shutdowns enforced by Israel, and what people can do to support Palestinian rights in this moment.

Marwa Fatafta, policy and advocacy director at Access Now. “You have so much power, more than you think you have. And every act of solidarity, no matter how big or small, is extremely, extremely important.”


The Anti-Defamation League has classified the event — and dozens of other protests led by Jewish groups like Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow — as “anti-Israel,” according to an analysis by The Intercept, and added them to their database documenting rising antisemitism across the U.S.

“We need the blood of the women, children and elderly of Gaza to awaken the revolutionary spirit”

These are the words of one of the leaders of Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, who is a billionaire and lives safe and sound in Qatar.

Hamas leaders are lining their pockets at the expense of millions of innocent Palestinians in Gaza.

Whom should I follow for information around #Israel?


I'm not content with the fact that both Mastodon and Facebook removed, in a single day, a posting I made a few days back excerpting valuable commentary on the situation in Israel by Peter Beinart. This tells me that someone or someones are busy monitoring social media feed now and trying to get viewpoints they do not want heard censored and silenced.

Here's more valuable commentary from Beinart.

Watching the weather forecast in #Israel is so wild to me. Gee, I wonder what it’ll be today. Super hot, really really hot or very very hot??

In similar news, I burnt my finger on the metal keypad at the gas station today.


Israel has had Palestinians under occupation for decades, and that allows weapons companies to test and develop new technologies on them that can then be sold abroad.

On #TechWontSaveUs, I spoke to Antony Loewenstein about how that tech is developed, what it means for Palestinians, and how the Israeli government uses oppressive tech for diplomatic leverage.

Unpopular opinion: wenn Anarchist*innen sich zusätzlich explizit Anti-zionist*innen nennen sind sie eigentlich immer Antisemit*innen.

Gegen jeden Staat aber besonders gegen #Israel? Das glaubt ihr euch doch selbst nicht.

Somebody reported me to myself, y’all. How’s your day going? 😀

Hint: if you don’t like my comparing Israel to Russia, go tell Israel to stop acting like Russia.

(And find out how the fediverse works before you go making an arse of yourself trying to censor me on my own personal instance.)
