#Israel’s government continues its #WarCrimes, killings and starvation of Palestinian civilians with impunity
Its war on #Gaza also has a carbon footprint larger than many entire countries, further accelerating the global #ClimateCrisis

More on #Germany and #israels quid pro quo relationship and Ben-Gurion's calculated effort to balance holding a major Holocaust related trial while securing German money and knowhow for building Israel's nuclear reactor at Dimona.
Germany suspended all military and financial assistance to Israel during the trial of Adolf #Eichmann (that took place in Jerusalem from April 11 to August 13, 1961,) explicitly conditioning renewal on how the trial was conducted. Once Ben-Gurion successfully managed the trial without damaging Germany's image, #Adenauer expressed gratitude and #Peres secured significant military equipment as compensation.
[...] Ben-Gurion knew that the Germans were very worried about the trial, as he wrote in his diary, and apparently also knew that they were following every statement that might harm them, so he was also careful not to make statements during the trial period. They applied heavy pressure on Israel and froze all commitments for arms deals, reparations and the loan for the Negev project, and made clear that they would renew the agreements 'according to what would be said in the trial.' At the end of the trial, Deputy Defense Minister Shimon Peres met with Chancellor Adenauer, and the latter asked to convey thanks to his dear friend Ben-Gurion for having managed the trial well. Peres presented the expected compensation - weapons without money - submarines, missiles, and [classified] [classified] [classified]."
-----------
West Germany's first installment of 200 million marks annually for the reactor came August 14, 1961 - one day after the trial ended. Final approval came June 8, 1962, only after the trial concluded.
Another noteworthy fact: Ben-Gurion knew West German official Hans Globke had drafted the legal framework for the Nuremberg Laws that enabled Jewish deportation and extermination, but told German representatives: 'There is no need to speak of Globke, because Adenauer investigated his past before accepting him as advisor better than Israel could have investigated.'"

Eigentlich sollte #EvaIllouz den renommiertesten Kulturpreis #Israels bekommen. Nun hat sich der israelische #Kulturminister eingeschaltet und will das verhindern. Grund ist ihre Kritik an der Besatzungspolitik. https://www.nd-aktuell.de/artikel/1190123.eva-illouz-israel-preis-schnell-zur-stelle.html

Hofft sie also, die Frau #Baerbock... beigetragen hat sie ja nichts. Das wäre ja auch vermessen, in ihrer Position.
Welches Amt bekleidet sie noch gleich? Ach ja, Außenminister einer der engsten Alliierten #Israels.
Na dann, Glückwunsch zu so viel Einsatz, Frau Baerbock!
The Hind Rajab Foundation: War Criminal Alert: Guy Azran in Thailand – HRF Filed Case, Requests Arrest!
The Hind Rajab Foundation has officially filed a case with the #ICC against Guy Azran, a soldier from #Israel’s 432nd Givati Brigade, for war crimes in #Gaza (July 2023).
What did he do?
- Held civilians hostage and degraded their dignity.
- Used civilians as human shields.
- Shot indiscriminately at homes and civilians.
- Committed arson and posed with the destruction.
Azran is currently vacationing in #Thailand. The authorities there have a duty to investigate, prosecute, or extradite #WarCriminals.
Justice for Gaza starts with accountability.

Euro-Med Media: As Israel insists on using starvation as weapon, famine in northern Gaza must be officially declared
Palestinian Territory – Given that Israel has blocked the entry of goods and aid to the hundreds of thousands of besieged residents in the northern #Gaza Strip for more than 50 days now, the relevant international and #UN organisations must formally declare #famine in the region. #Israel’s use of #starvation as a #weapon is one component of its ongoing #genocide in the Strip, which also includes mass killings and forced displacement.
Due to the illegal Israeli blockade on the enclave, 10s of thousands of Palestinians, including dozens of patients in three #hospitals in the northern Gaza Strip, are in immediate danger of starvation or long-term health consequences.

[11:17] 'Megalomaan en paranoïde': wie was Hezbollah-leider Hassan Nasrallah?
Hassan Nasrallah was een megalomane en paranoïde man. Een einzelgänger, zo blijkt uit een psychologische profiel van Israëls militaire inlichtingendienst, die vanwege de recente dood van zijn oude terreurkameraden ook daadwerkelijk moederziel alleen levensbelangrijke besluiten nam.

The Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI) commends the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) for dropping its biased, unethical policy opposing academic boycotts, which was primarily aimed at shielding Israeli universities from accountability for their egregious human rights violations.
PACBI salutes all those who worked tirelessly to push the #AAUP to change its position, as well as the conscientious academics, students, and progressive academic associations that have for years advocated for ending #US academic institutional complicity with Israel’s 76-year-old regime of settler-colonialism and #apartheid and, in the process, challenging AAUP’s hypocrisy. Without their persistent protests and intellectual challenges, without the student-led encampments reenergizing campus campaigns for academic #boycott and divestment in response to #Israel’s #Gaza #genocide, the AAUP would not have reversed its ethically and logically untenable policy.

Das Problem ist nicht, mit den Menschen in #Gaza zu fühlen und die Kriegsführung #Israels scharf zu kritisieren.
Das Problem ist bösester, vernichtender #Antisemitismus.

@randahl @anderspuck @jwcph @GavinChait @kimschulz @sarahbeck just read what the radical extreme ultra orthodox party in #Israëls cabinet finds about #Palestians and arabs. In this 70 years of conflict never has so many deads and wounded as now. This is no coincidence, this is brutal deliberately. They want to fade out the palestinians either to other arab countries or dead. They don’t care.

Dass mensch nicht #Israels (nicht nur) aktuelle Politik -vom israelischen Volk scheinbar mehrheitlich getragen- kritisieren/in Frage stellen oder angreifen darf, ohne als Antisemit'in bezeichnet oder unter Antisemitismusverdacht gestellt zu werden, nervt mega.
Dass das Thema, speziell in D und seinen ³. Reich "Partner"ländern sehr heikel ist: Klar.
Dass Menschen, die qua Geburt definitiv nicht Täter gewesen sein können, immer noch einfach so einsortiert werden, ist nicht ok.
Change!
