Yes, but there is also an archive version posted.

Yes, they are a marketing technique, but I don’t know of any other legal way to share them. Please give me any ideas you may have. Thanks.

Article contains info from interviews and internal documents of government officials from various countries.

Yes, and it is very positive that prominent human rights groups agree and document it. These reports can be used to pressure governments, universities, etc. to divest from Israel and to stop sending arms, software, etc. to Israel.

The main point that I “got” is that you like to rant using lots of capital letters. (And I know that it is genocide, but understanding that is not absolutely necessary to act in favor of Palestine. Look at Bernie Sanders - he is a very critical, liberal Zionist, yet his actions in the Senate and his speeches have helped, not hurt, the Palestinian cause, in spite of his refusal to call it genocide.)

I agree that posting this without any clarifying critical comments was a mistake. But I still think it was worth posting for the reasons I stated in another post.

Yes, that’s true, but I thought that a pro-Israel Jewish US publication having an opinion piece favorable to Gaza was worth sharing. It helps to break down the demonization of Palestinians that is so widespread in the US.

It’s not an article that will give someone brilliant insights into the reality of Zionism, but it helps create space for discussion with a broader set of people.

Right, and he just bought the book a few days ago. Highly unlikely that he will change anything. But I posted this because it might be useful for those of us who know people still sitting on the fence. This article could be something that they would read.

Public opinion in the Western countries has shifted a lot against Israel, but we still need to educate more people, and mobilize them against Israel’s genocide.

Maybe we don’t, but there are still many people who aren’t convinced yet, and Amnesty International producing a very solid document will likely help convince them.

Sorry for the late reply.

Yes, I agree that the fact the 3 Squad members stayed firm is very important. (I have supported Rashida here in Michigan since 2018.)

But up until recently AOC was good on the basics of the right to oppose Israel and on Israel’s war on Gaza, even though she was late to call it genocide. (But when she finally did, she gave a very powerful speech in Congress on it.)

But since she is so significant in US politics now, it was a real blow to Palestine solidarity for her to retreat on this. This in addition to the flattering and false speech about Harris at the DNC in Chicago, and her Instagram event on anti-Semitism, in which only pro-Israel viewpoints were expressed.

But what about Hamas? /s

That statement is truly incredible! Biden helped give cover to Netanyahu (in addition to endless supplies of bombs) and drew one tiny red line for a few weeks (no bunker-busters in Rafah) and that faded quickly. He stopped funding UNWRA, even when other Western countries resumed it. Continuous support for Israel in the UN Security Council.

The West Bank example is grotesque. What effect did those sanctions have? None that I can see. The IDF has begun destroying infrastructure like they have done in Gaza, in addition to all of the killings.

So no, there is no reason to defend Biden/Harris. Is Trump worse? Yes, so what about it? Should we refrain from protesting because Democrats are in power right now?

Aren’t the elections over? Whatever “strategic” excuse for supporting Biden/Harris is gone now. It’s a bi-partisan policy of unconditional support for Israel.

It’s true Trump will be more extreme, but there is no longer any excuse for going easy on Biden/Harris, if there ever was.

Yeah, that sounds like the line of the Communist Party of Germany in the 1930’s. Didn’t end up too well. Read Trotsky on that.

Yes, you are right. For more in-depth coverage and analysis, take a look at the article in this post: https://lemmy.ml/post/22677649

Thanks for posting this! It’s a very powerful film.

I have. One good article for you to read is https://forward.com/news/673303/dutch-jews-israeli-attack-politics-antisemitism/

It’s from a well-known Jewish publication, and it mentions that the Israeli soccer fans were very organized and hyped up. Not passive victims.

Excellent article!
