>> if #Harris felt that her position as VP prevented her from criticizing her boss’s role in #genocide then she needed to resign.

No, you need to stop spreading disinfo. #KamalaHarris supported a #TwoStateSolution that #Trump will never support, even though many european nations already do, and #France is on the cusp of doing so.

Protesters who spoke for #Palestinians #inTheirName have hurt the #Palestinian cause more than anybody by reelecting Trump

@CindyWeinstein @Nonilex

For 75+ years #Palestinians have let neighboring countries and their proxies foment war #inTheirName.

So, it is quite remarkable to see them protest #Hamas in a rare show of public anger against the militant group in #Gaza.

Palestinians held signs saying “Stop the war… We refuse to die” and “The blood of our children is not cheap”

“We are sick of the bombing, killing and displacement.”

Hamas is “the only party we can affect. Protests won’t stop Israeli occupation…”

⬆️ Time to boost 🧵 #EcstasyAndAmnesia again… #WorthReading

Hard to miss the sudden and magical end to the conflict as #Biden retires.

Noting that correlation ≠ causation, I posit that the conflict was contrived for a specific objective, that objective was achieved, and like #DamascusProtocol, it was NOT dreamt up in consultation with #Palestinians, nor had #Palestinian interest in mind.

Once again, ecstasy will subside, amnesia will set in, and Palestinians will let others fight #inTheirName

"Contrary to the impression we often get via the world's media, most of the #MiddleEast is not at war. Day-to-day life in places like #Dubai, #SaudiArabia and #Egypt goes on as normal, untouched by the threat of war. Even in countries that have recently experienced conflict in some form, like #Iraq and #Iran, life is largely peaceful for most people."

Not at all surprising how little the #Arab world cares about their #brothers in #Palestine.

⬆️ Many of those hit were members of #Hezbollah. Not clear if non-Hezbollah members also carried any exploding pagers.

The blasts were mainly in areas where Hezbollah has a STRONG PRESENCE… according to Lebanese security officials and a Hezbollah official.

Hezbollah said that it would CONTINUE its NORMAL strikes against Israel “as in all the past days” as part of what it describes as a support front for its ally, #Hamas, and #Palestinians #inTheirName.

⬆️ >> [Nov 2023] #NasarallahWasCoy about #Oct7 but ended up discrediting his own public denial spectacularly.

Now, Yahya #Sinwar, the #Oct7 mastermind and new leader of #Hamas, thanks #Nasarallah, the #Hezbollah leader for latter's help attacking #Israel.

They are no longer hiding the coordination between Hamas and Hezbollah and openly implicating #Iran in the conflict.

Sinwar called the war “one of the most honorable battles for the #Palestinian people” #inTheirName

⬆️ >> #Palestinians never fought for freedom

They never fought for freedom despite being under the #TurkishYoke since 1517 the way #Arabs under #Hussein did in 1917.

That’s how Arabs earned their freedom, but Palestinians never did.

Instead, egged on by Arab neighbors, they let the neighbors fight #inTheirName ever since 1947 (and later #Hamas) without taking their destiny in their own hands

>> I accept Israel exists

Are you #Palestinian and do you have support of the majority of #Palestinians on the above issue?

If not, then your voice in this respect does not matter.

It is up to Palestinians to take control of their own destiny instead of letting #Hamas fight #inTheirName

See hashtags #PermanentStateOfWar and #inTheirName if you want to see what Palestinians have done to themselves.

>> Distinguished Israeli genocide historian, Omer Bartov, writes about the complete indifference of most Israelis to what is being done in their name.

Wow, I had NEVER imagined the hashtag #inTheirName to apply in this context.

I have hundreds of posts with this tag for the other side, but the repeated use of the phrase “in their name” in the story linked to in the above post comes as a gut punch and is shaking my deeply held beliefs

>> Correct

Correct 😉 re Bibi

>> The only way forward for #Israel is to start treating #Palestinians like human beings, instead of threats that must be exterminated

Wrong! There are multiple ways forward:

✴️ #Hamas could surrender and release ALL #hostages

✴️ #Palestinians could disavow Hamas instead of letting them fight #inTheirName

✴️ Palestinians could RECOGNIZE Israel

Also, leave #extermination or #eliminationist rhetoric to Hamas, and chose a better word, say, "contained?" 🙂

>> Israel has had 76 years to settle with the Palestinians

Isn’t that backwards given that:

1. In 1947 it was #Palestinians who spat on the #UN #TwoStateSolution

2. In 1948 Palestinians let neighboring #Arab states to fight a full-scale war #inTheirName with Israel, and LOST

What led to 1967 #SixDayWar, 1973 #YomKippur War, 1982 #LebanonWar, 2006 #SecondLebanonWar, & 2023 Israel-#Hamas War?

>> If #Israel had followed any form of legal process, not funded Hamas to undermine any peace process maybe things would have been different

Skipping a lot of #history? My timeline is FULL of that. Look for #TurkishYoke, #ThievesBanquet, #DamascusProtocol, #Arabism, #ArabNationalism, #permanentStateOfWar, #inTheirName

Before Israel funded Hamas, #Palestinians kicked offer for free state in 1947 & joined Arabs in war. If they hadn’t done that, Israel wouldn’t need to fund Hamas

⬆️ @rela45

>> #ICJ has made this ruling is hinting that #Israel will be guilty in the #genocide case having ignored "instruction"

ICJ is blowing #SouthAfrica, #Iran, & #Russia horn

#ICC is independent & called out Hamas too

>>It's just a tragedy that it will come too late for so many innocent Palestinians

#Arabs joined the British to defeat the Turks, and so earned freedom on the #Arabian Peninsula. What did Palestinians do to EARN their freedom?

In 1947, Palestinians were given freedom but they rejected it at the behest of neighboring Arab nations who they let fight #inTheirName, lost multiple times, and came out worse off each time. That’s Palestinian folly, not Israel’s fault.

Adding new tag: #PalestinianGuilt

>> #Israel should not be asked to accept a #Palestinian state immediately after #Oct7

No ally, incl #US asked for that

>> definitely not without conditions being met on the Palestinian side

Definitely.

>> Israel already tried this, up to and including complete disengagement from #Gaza, and it got Oct7 for its trouble.

It is the fault of #Palestinians — and NONE other — to let #Hamas fight #inTheirName.
